Editor, Bruce Cain,
explains why
Marijuana Prohibition is intellectually indefensible. Also explains the
benefits of Legalizing which include granting universal access for
Medical Users as well as robbing nearly 20 Billion dollars from Mexican
Drug Cartels. That is 20 Billion a year that would generate tax revenue
and create more jobs for American workers.
I am confident that, having read some of this
pertinent background material, you will understand that New Age Citizen
is not interested in either racism or xenophobia. We really want
to leave the United States, and the rest of the planet, in better shape
than we found it when we arrived. But to do this effectively we
also need to understand things as they are and not how we would prefer
these things to be.
Read my lips, supporters of Amnesty for Illegal Immigrants:
NO MORE IMMIGRATION: LEGAL OR ILLEGAL
It is not that we dislike immigrants. It is really about the fact that
the boat, that we know as America, is already too full. In the long run
the most compassionate thing we can do is set an example for the rest of
the world by stabilizing and reducing our population.
And that example requires that we reduce our population so that we can
live within the sustainable limits of our contiguous borders and the
bounty that this finite land mass will allow. To do otherwise would be
irresponsible.
We need to force the Mexican elite to start taking care of their people
and not using the United States as a de facto Welfare Program which, by
the way, is creating terrible hardships for American workers. We need to
stop fueling our next adversary, China, by withdrawing our factories
from their country and by penalizing them for stealing so much of our
technology.
Of course my hope is that a stabilized global population will provide a
better life for everyone. It is quite clear that continuing along, with
the strategies of the NWO will only create increasing misery amongst all
of the world's people.
But if you won't face these facts then, of course, go on believing that
we (those that oppose further legal/illegal immigration) are all racists
and xenophobes.
I find it interesting how you have NEVER answered the following
question:
What is the optimum and maximum population that the United States
can sustain?
Clue: we currently have between 300-320 million people living in the
United States.
If you could only absorb the information in the following links I'm
confident you will at least understand where I'm coming from. I'm not
nearly optimistic enough to think it will change your point of view. But
I do hold out hope.
Thursday, June 28th
2007, something quite remarkable happened. It was on this date
that the Senate's Amnesty Bill -- sometimes referred to as the
McCain/Kennedy Bill -- was defeated. During the morning hours
there were so many activists, calling the Senate phone bank, that the
system actually failed. This was a great day for "grass roots"
activism and it appears that our collective efforts finally paid off.
For the first time in decades our Senators listened to the rising anger
from their intended constituents, the American people, and ignored the
wishes of the Multi-National Corporate lobbyists.
Despite the manipulation
of polling data the emerging truth is that the American people
increasingly want severe restrictions on further Legal and Illegal
immigration into the United States. There was actually a poignant
moment during the Senate debate where Tancredo emphasized the people's
wishes for restrictions on both Legal and Illegal immigration. It
was followed by numerous Senator's who castigated Tancredo for even
mentioning restrictions on Legal Immigration. Such actions only
underline just how out of touch these elitist representatives have
become. I talk to people from all walks of life and can tell you
with certainty that the American people want both Legal and Illegal
immigration stopped, or at least severely restricted.
Though all immigration
restrictionists deserve praise for their actions two people need special
commendation. Lou Dobb's deserves special praise for appraising
the American public about immigration, the border, Ramos and Compeon as
well as many other under reported issues, through his nightly show "Lou
Dobbs Tonight." But the lesser known Roy Beck, NumbersUSA, also
deserves special praise. It was his website that efficiently
focused the energies of the activist community through directed faxes
and phone calls throughout the Senate debate. I have to believe
that the confluence of these two activists is what finally put the "fear
of the American people" into ears of our Senators.
Unfortunately we can
only look upon the Senate's Amnesty defeat as a small battle in a long
war. What needs to occur now is a broadening of the debate to
related issues such as:
* The North American Union
* Rolling back both Legal and Illegal Immigration
* Rolling back NAFTA
* Rolling back the president's fast track authority
* Ending the anchor baby program
* Insuring good paying jobs for American workers
* Developing an "airtight" system by which all companies will be
scrutinized for illegal workers and visa overstays (also illegal
workers, by the way). The current "pilot program" is not anything
close to that system.
* Making sure immigrants don't get better treatment than American
workers
* Making sure no more Iraqi refugees are allowed to immigrate into the
United States
* Boycotting Chinese made goods and the corporations that produce goods
in China
At the same time we must
be vigilant at attempts, by our federal legislators, to sneak
immigration legislation through last minute amendments. Actually
NumbersUSA has done a great job at tracking this legislative subterfuge
in real time. I highly recommend that you get on their mailing
list:
There is probably no
simpler method for staying abreast of the chicanery of our federal
legislators, than signing up with NumbersUSA. But this will not be
sufficient if we hope to prevail on this issue of immigration. We
must also alert the unwitting public as to the dire consequences that
await, should the North American Union (NAU) ever become fully
implemented. To accomplish this, future immigration
containment strategies should emphasize the relationship between the NAU
and various corporate sponsored immigration initiatives.
American citizens must be convinced that the movement toward global
governance will result in their impoverishment, as they are quickly
displaced by a torrent of legal foreign elites.
But above all else we
must expose what is really going on here.
(1) The corporations buy
the politicians
(2) The corporations then actually write the legislation
(3) The corporations use their media conglomerates to manufacture
consent
(4) The corporation then take full advantage of the loopholes that they
have incorporated into the legislation.
The following video
illustrates the result of this process as it relates to immigration.
In these video's you have an attorney lecturing to a group of American
employers. In words that should make your blood boil he blurts out
the following treasonous statement:
'Of course the reason we
are here today is to avoid employing American workers.'
But think about it for a
second. Is it just a coincidence that this attorney is lecturing
these employers as to how they can screw their fellow American workers?
Law firms are the flip side of the corporations. They write the
loopholes into the legislation as agents of the corporations. Then
the have seminars so they can educate the local employers in
exercising those very loopholes. Meanwhile the public rarely has a
clue as to what is truly being orchestrated behind the scenes. And
Congress? Well, they are either complicit or they are clueless.
In either case they are working against the interests of the American
people and are in bad need of a new job.
Here are the video's:
For more information check out the
Programmers Guild website
which contributed extensively to both video's (above). Here you
will find extensive material illustrating how our Congressional
representatives are writing legislation which deny American workers jobs
and favor the hiring of foreign workers. These Congressmen are
truly traitors and the issue of immigration is but one of many issues
where this claim can be made. It should be no surprise that the
approval rate of Congress is at an abysmal 14 percent:
If you are interested in discussing this feel free to join the new
"New Age Citizen" Yahoo Group.
Join our NewAgeCitizen Yahoo Group and let us know if Lou Dobbs
should support Marijuana Legalization in order to rob profits from
Mexican Drug Smugglers
Lou Dobbs appears on our site and I'm sure we all see him as a
primary spokesperson for Pro-Enforcement activists. But I think he is
dead wrong in his support for Marijuana prohibition.
I believe Legalizing Marijuana, for adults only, would take nearly 10
Billion dollars from the Drug Smugglers: in California alone. Many
Pro-Enforcement folk that I've talked to agree: at least 50%.
I would be interested in your views on this topic:
(1) Do you agree that Legalizing Marijuana could
rob Illegal Mexican Drug Dealers of their profits?
(2) Do you think grass roots Immigration Pro-Enforcement folk should add Marijuana
Re-Legalization to their agenda?
For more information on my proposed framework for Marijuana
Re-Legalization see the MERP articles below:
I cannot tell you how many how many people have said that “a revolution is
coming to America in our lifetime.” I have especially noticed this over the last
year. Five years ago people were beginning to sense a change. But lately, what
started as random noise is assembly itself into a building drum beat. I would
much rather see a series of policy steps that might lift the burdens so many
Americans are experiencing lately. Much of this burden is due to the
shortsighted decisions of Multi-National Corporations that have willfully
plotted to destroy the American working class. They have achieved this by
essentially eliminating the livelihoods of American workers. Nearly 2.2 million
American families (e.g., there are about 140 Million households in the US) stand
to loose their homes in 2007 as their livelihoods have been sent oversees or
displaced by imported foreign workers.
The first steps are pretty obvious: (1) repatriate the Illegal Immigrants AND
those elites who remain here after their work/education Visas have expired; (2)
develop a foolproof method for determining the citizenship of all American
workers (e.g., Not RealID ; Not the “Pilot” program) so that non-citizens can no
longer work here or receive any further benefits ; (3) focus the best of
America’s brain trust towards a path to energy independence (4) stop any further
colonization of the United States by stopping all further foreign ownership of
American land, real estate and businesses.
We must once again become a country “for Americans and by Americans” while
simultaneously seeking out solutions that might also benefit, empower and
sustain the rest of the planet. While I may be thinking globally don't get
too confused here. What we are seeking here is an alternative to the
Globalization that is unfolding under the guise of "free trade agreements,"
multinational unions," and the global privatization of all lands, properties and
liberties.
But these first steps will not be nearly enough. We must also rejuvenate the
American working class that has been betrayed by Government, Business and the
Media.
Cost of War in Iraq: Approximately 600 Billion [600,000,000,000]
Cost of American Home: $200,000
Numbers of American Homes that could have been built if we didn’t go to war?
600,000,000,000 / 200,000 = 6,000,000 / 2 = 3,000,000 = 3 Million American Homes
George Washington once said that “you cannot have liberty without land.” What he
meant was that citizens needed to be secure in their homes and their property --
that they needed to have full ownership of those homes in order to enjoy any
real freedom. But this is fading fast as American workers are being forced to
work for less and less: as more of their jobs are eliminated through technology
or sent over to “slave wage” countries such as China and India by American
Multi-Nationals (e.g., Ford, GM, GE etc.). In order to relieve these burdens I
believe that the Federal Reserve (soon to become the People’s Reserve) should be
forced to print the paper to pay off every mortgage in America: held by American
citizens who were physically born in this country to other legal American
citizens.
I know many are laughing at this notion. But consider a few simple facts:
* The total burden of US debt stands now at 45 TRILLION dollars. There is
absolutely no way that this can ever be paid. Currently we are allowing the
colonization of the United States in order to pay for this: something that will
turn the “American working class” into an “American slave class.” If we allow
legal immigration to continue, “Native Americans” (e.g., those born as legal
citizens by legal citizens) will be increasingly displaced by rich foreigners.
And please consider that these rich foreigners are currently coming here at the
rate of 2-4 million each year.
Numbers of American Homes that could have been built for 45 Trillion?
45,000,000,000,000 / 200,000 = 450,000,000 / 2 = 225,000,000 = 225 Million
American Homes. In other words our cumulative national debt would allow the
replacement of every home in the United States (140 million) and we would have
enough money to build another 85 Million homes after that.
* In 1999 the Federal Reserve bailed out a hedge fund that had lost 10 Billion
dollars. Since it require 2 million, just to join this hedge fund, it is obvious
that this is an instance where the Federal Reserve bailed out the elite.
So all I am really saying is, we should do the same thing for the American
working class that we have done – many, many times – for the elite. Why should
it be that “what is good for the Gander is not equally good for the Goose?”
I don’t want to trivialize the impact of such a departure from current thought.
But the “inconvenient truth” is that the current economic paradigm cannot be
sustained. It does not work for the American people any longer. The first step
is obvious: Stop all further Legal/Illegal Immigration. In other words stop
digging our selves deeper into trouble.
The second step will take all the intelligence we can muster: developing a new
sociological-environmental-economic paradigm that will acknowledge the
inalienable worth of each citizen and allow us to live sustainable within the
limits our planet’s ecosystem.
Moving forward with humanity and intelligence is no longer an option: it is the
only option.
The restructuring of our cumulative debt is inevitable. The only question
is whether we will define the terms of this transition, or whether we will allow
the Multi-national corporations to define those terms. I would not
recommend the second option, which is currently at play.
DOBBS: A new poll shows large majorities of people in developed nations
are simply fed up with globalization and so-called free trade policies,
many people responding they believe that trade liberalization, as "The
Financial Times" defines it, with countries such as communist China is
hurting middle-class Americans and middle classes in -- throughout
Europe as well.
The U.S. trade deficit with China shows just how many products are now
manufactured by Chinese workers. Last year, the United States imported
more than $230 billion more from China than it exported.
Christine Romans reports on the effect of the trade deficit on this
nation's middle class.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
CHRISTINE ROMANS, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): A majority of citizens
in the U.S., U.K. and Europe are finding globalization a dirty word. An
FT/Harris poll finds a popular backlash against globalization and
against the leaders of the world's biggest companies.
An overwhelming majority says globalization has a negative effect. Fewer
than 5 percent surveyed have great admiration for the heads of large
companies. Globalization, instead, has become synonymous with rising
inequality, outsourcing, and collapsing job security for the middle
class.
Labor economist Peter Morici:
PETER MORICI, UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND: Globalization isn't treating
people equally. In the process, it's weakening the very fiber of our
economy. Folks can't afford to educate their children properly anymore.
They can't afford to give them proper health care. Down the road, that
leads to a labor force that isn't as well-equipped for the future.
ROMANS: Morici says American trade policy with communist China in
particular endangers true capitalism by rewarding one-party rule,
suppression of the media, subsidized factories, and currency
manipulation.
But economist Rajeev Dhawan believes the backlash is because the
benefits of globalization are hidden.
RAJEEV DHAWAN, GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY: An accountant sitting in
Atlanta now has competition from anybody that can do the basic stuff,
whether they are in Manila, Moscow, anywhere. They don't even have to
speak English. I think the trouble is that people can really see the
costs very quickly of globalization, but not the benefits. The benefits
are all spread out.
ROMANS: Benefits, he says, like low interest rates, lower prices at
Wal-Mart, and cheaper prices for outsourced technology services.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
ROMANS: But the fears of rising inequality among the richest nations
puts policy-makers and business leaders on notice. A majority of
citizens clearly do not believe that their leaders are pursuing trade
policies that are fair to workers, citizens, and voters -- Lou.
DOBBS: Well, certainly -- certainly, the issue of distribution of wealth
and the -- and the sharing of wealth and income has become far more
disproportionate than at any time since the Great Depression. It's a
remarkable part of the story and much of the impetus for what the
"Financial Times" poll revealed there.
ROMANS: That's right. DOBBS: I love the fact that CEOs, only 5 percent
are admired, putting their ratings just actually below that of Congress
at 14 percent.
(LAUGHTER)
DOBBS: Twenty-nine -- you know, President Bush is soon going to be able
to brag that he has the highest approval ratings among all of the
principal institutions in the country, assuming that -- I better not say
that.
(LAUGHTER)
DOBBS: He will have bragging rights.
Thank you very much, Christine Romans.

Note: Original link (above) has tables for each survey question. It
makes you wonder how long before the next Bastille occurs.
“How much do you admire those who run [your country’s] largest
companies?”
Base: All EU adults in five countries and US adults
Source: Harris Interactive - Note: Percentages may not add up to 100%
due to rounding - Italy is really the only country surveyed where there
is still some admiration for corporate executives. With the exception of
Italy, majorities have very little or no admiration for these
executives.
An FT/Harris poll published today shows that popular backlash against
globalisation and the leaders of the world's largest companies is
sweeping all rich countries.
The Financial Times has reported that the British have the least
admiration of any national group for the leaders of their country's
largest companies, and a large majority believes the government should
impose a pay cap on the heads of companies to limit their rewards.
Large majorities of people in the US and across Europe want higher
taxation for the rich to counter a widespread belief that rewards are
unjustified.
Supporting the view that globalisation is an overwhelmingly negative
force, citizens of rich countries are looking to government to cushion
the blows they perceive have come from the liberalisation of their
economies to trade with emerging countries.
The FT says that those polled in the UK, France, the US and Spain were
about three times more likely to say globalisation was having a negative
rather than a positive effect on their countries. The majority against
globalisation was smaller in Germany, with its large export base.
Corporate leaders fared little better with only 5 per cent or fewer
people in the US and all large European economies, except Italy, saying
they had a great deal of admiration for those who run large companies.
In the UK, nearly 80 per cent of those polled thought corporate
executives earned too much,60 per cent said they should be taxed more
and the same proportion thought the government should limit their pay
directly.
This FT/Harris Poll was conducted online by Harris Interactive among a
total of 6,360 adults (aged 16-64) within France (1,020), Germany
(1,046), Great Britain (1,040), Spain (1,116) and the United States
(1,054) and adults (aged 18-64) in Italy (1,084) between 5 and 13 July
2007.
Here is an example of legislation that should be adopted by all 50

Interview with D.A. King,
The Dustin Inman Society, on July 6, 2007, who
states "that was exactly the intent" of Senate Bill 529, passed in 2006.
The Editor of New Age Citizen, is
considering giving a series of lectures that challenge the current
"Demopublican" plutocracy with policy alternatives that are more to the
interests of the American working class. The first lecture in the
series will most likely address the current Immigration Reform measures
that are being debated both in Congress and on the streets of America.
Lecture #001: No More Immigration: Legal or Illegal
This lecture will address the virtual propaganda surrounding the
current immigration debate. It will expose the larger agenda that
is intent on destroying the middle class by attempting to merge the
United States into a "North American Union" consisting of Mexico, Canada
and the United States. The primary argument against immigration focuses
on the inability of the United States to provide adequate sustainable
resources for the 200 million additional immigrants that will exceed the
carrying capacity of this great country by 2050. The lecture will
conclude that the best interests of legal American citizens will be
served by implementing mandatory employer Social Security checks;
punishing employers with extreme prejudice and putting an end to all
Legal/Illegal immigration until the real wages of Americans is at or
beyond what they were at their apex in 1973. If you live in SE
Michigan and are interesting in attending one of these activist lectures
please send an email to get on our lecture list.
In addition to these lectures I am considering staging a
demonstration against further immigration and Bush's agenda to destroy
the American working class. More on that in the near future.
Lastly, if you know of any Anti-Immigrant Demonstrations, anywhere in
the US, let me know. I will begin to post these on the website.
The following YouTube Video
has the Editor of New Age Citizen, Bruce W. Cain, describing an overview
to the "New Agenda for America": [originally referred to as the "New Age
Agenda"]:
"New Agenda for America" will
become a slogan for referring to the set of policy positions that NAC
will be promoting in the coming years. It refers to a disturbing
trend whereby our elected representatives appear to be increasingly at
odds with the values of the founding fathers of this country (e.g.,
Washington, Franklin, Jefferson) and the American people.
To get this off the ground I
am creating a frames based page which will allow my visitors to both
understand the rational behind New Age Citizen as well as the
preliminary agenda for "New Agenda for America." I will place a link to
this at the top right hand corner of the homepage for now. You can
