[quote:Anonymous Coward 16213681:MV8yMTE2NjY2XzM1NzAyMTIxXzlDMzcwQjBD] [quote:Anonymous Coward 366133:MV8yMTE2NjY2XzM1NzAwNDk2XzRENjU0RDA0] War on developed soil is never imminent. Development necessitates war, not the other way around. Once developed, one must defend against those who do not understand development. This can be done through a) guns or b) welfare. There is some reason that there is an intention to reduce welfare temporarily. The real reason I do not know, but I can guess that there are certain agenda items that cannot be pushed forward without some kind of real civilian threat to the long-term order. One possibility is to remove the rights of states immediately (as if those matter anyway) and only have the federal government. This makes sense because the concept of National versus State is outdated in our current environment. It is not Mississippi versus New York anymore. It is USA versus world. Therefore, states rights are only holding back the ability of our nation to compete in this increasingly competitive world. Another iteration of this is a true national ID system. You can implement this by making a national welfare card. Then you have 50% of the population with national ID cards. After this is implemented, you can slowly erode the idea of "states rights" as a fringe element, which they really are at this point. It is a bunch of people who are still stuck in a 1910 mode of thinking. People who are pro states rights are only that way because it suits their point of view. This viewpoint is unacceptable going forward, however, because we need to make quicker and quicker decisions and cannot have people with grandfathered rights holding the system hostage. A national ID card would remove one of the states' last real rights: to control ID databases. Combine that with removal of Medicaid control and welfare control, and states become quite literally an extension of the national government because the leaders depend on welfare votes to get elected (ie they must be compliant with national or they will not get enough welfare and their constituents will unelect them). The only thing holding back the removal of states rights is that states righters have large amounts of automatic weapons. That is why I believe this whole shabang is not about the collapse of the US government, the dollar, or even destruction of the welfare state. This is about formalizing what has been known to be true for many years: states are completely dependent on the Federal government. Example? Interstate repair funds. Federal government has dictated that the drinking age needs to be 21. Anyone who listened got money, anyone who didn't received nothing. Gradually, all 50 states changed to age 21. Federal is tired of having to bribe state officials to push through anything. It is tired of having corrupt state politicians who do not understand the realities of this world from blocking progress. State officials constantly pose roadblocks to national agendas and truly should be sidelined. And that is most likely the purpose of any type of welfare collapse. [/quote] Who are you? You know how to think and am very interested to hear more. Much closer to what's really going on... I appreciate a person who doesn't dwell on personal opinion. Points re development vs -ing, determinant for (internal) war I am unclear. Why not reorganization of a developed country being dismantled and remoulded as is happening here, glad to hear you think guns are an obstacle and that welfare is a pacifier (to the millions who have lost livelihoods and homes) as a means to an end. There is a 60 month limit per lifetime I think. Recall Michael Chertoff aka Skeletor's threats to 27 states and counting who wouldn't accept a National ID (nor the state financed cost of it) and he responded by saying we'll get back at you for that by withholding federal funds. Then during Katrina gw removed state governance of the National Guard to the feds, first from FL. Then we're noticing all the ways the feds are slowly turning state social decisions/preferences into a federal decision. ie., abortion and gay state decisions, they're creeping into these things and under our doors like a colorless gas (but there is definitely an odor). Then who is it Scalia dumping us with his personal subjective opinion on these state decisions which is not in his job description. Then we have (shaky facts here) POTUS appointing regional governors trumping state governors who are now getting on their knees butt raised to the feds more and more, especially in the last 1 1/2yrs.. Big noticeable reorganization in Jan 2010. I so love Vermont. USA vs the world. Got occupation lies & bloodshed? Gotta go but please stick around. Finally an actual discussion, lol :D [/quote]

Too much here to even try to outline. It's easier to just watch the first 30 seconds and decide if this is something that will benefit you.
I've been reading GLP for about 2 years now and still, even had a few OMG moments during this video.
