Selling the U.S. to an International Conglomerate

E-Mail to Congress:

The Obama Administration is selling the U.S. to an international conglomerate.

If you don't want to see your country disappear as an independent entity, you may want to do something about it.

I worked 37 years for the Rohm & Haas Company. It was a large Chemical Company, which has now disappeared into Dow.

As the international conglomerate takes over the U.S., the best we could hope for is a subservatory position, such as the States now have in the U.S. hierarchy. We are seeing recently that State power is overshadowed by Federal power, when push comes to shove. The Feds have the power of the purse to print money and dole it out to the States as largess. Those who control the purse strings also control every other aspect of freedom. When the European Union was established as socialistic entity, the first action was to eliminate individual country's currency. and set up an international Euro.

I personally like our country. It's previous record of accomplishments has been unsurpassed by any other country. That record results from a combination of many factors, including primarily the Constitution, which guarantees personal freedoms and economic opportunity. Previous and current Administrations and Congress have been hacking away at the Constitution for so many years so that our present government is hardly recognizable from the original constitutional intent.

It is granted that all things must evolve through time, but there is variability. In a socialistic state, someone who steals from another person is no longer a thief, since all property is government owned. How far can that be extended? Can one person take the life of another? In absolute socialism, persons are also property of the State. Therefore, the concept of murder ceases to exist.

Is it reasonable for us to be traveling down that road? If not, now is the time to put a stop to it. Decrease the power of Federal Government by shrinking its size, which automatically reduces the negative things that a Federal Government can do.

Socialists Do Not Believe in Private Property Ownership

E-Mail to talk show host Mike McConnell:

I was listening this morning to your explanation of Senator Rand Paul's position on civil rights, for which he has recently been chastised.

You were making the point that there is a difference between private and government establishments. Government has no right to control membership and admission of private clubs or businesses.

During that section, you also had a phone conversation with a socialist caller, which seemed to go nowhere.

I now make a suggestion of the major reason why there is wide divergence of opinion on the part of the public concerning this issue.

SOCIALISTS DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE CONCEPT OF PRIVATE PROPERTY. For Socialists which are now generally Democrats, private property does not exist. All property belongs either to the state (socialism) or to the people (communism).

As long as socialist Democrats maintain this position, there is no basis of discussion along the line of differentiating between government controlled and private controlled property. I suggest you should have called the telephone caller a socialist and say also that you don't discuss the misguided merits of socialism at this time.

Ethnic Groups Need to Assimilate in America

E-mail to Rep. Randy Neugebauer:

Good job on continuing to save money by shrinking government!

I can understand your catering to unions (teachers) and Hispanics (Cinco de Mayo) as a need to not shuck off votes. However, I think you need to walk a fine line.

The fact is that the Teachers Union already has too much power in minimizing efficient education in our schools and having exorbitant pension benefits.

Hispanics should be considered part of Americans. We don't cater to Italians, Syrians, Bulgarians, British, etc.. They need to assimilate into our society as previous ethnic groups have done. Maintaining ethnic division in the country is bad for its development. When we celebrate ethnic holidays, or even recognize them, we do damage to our society.
