The Demise of the United States

How Long Do We Have?
Author Unknown

About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:

"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government."

"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury."

"From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship."

"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years"

"During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:

1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage"

Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:

Number of States won by:
Gore: 19
Bush: 29

Square miles of land won by:
Gore: 580,000
Bush: 2,427,000

Population of counties won by:
Gore: 127 million
Bush: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Gore: 13.2
Bush: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years. Pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

Taking a BOLD stand

CEO of Roberts Broadcasting Company, Michael V. Roberts Sr. took a bold stand recently.

Roberts Broadcasting Company has already banned their radio stations from playing all music degrading women and others in communities where they air hip-hop music. Ask others to do likewise.

"I am announcing, effective immediately, that music degrading women and other members of our community will no longer be played" on his stations, said Michael V. Roberts Sr., CEO of Roberts Broadcasting Company.

Rather than simply censoring vulgar words in songs, "We're going to ban them altogether, which is a hard move for a hip-hop station. If it's offensive in any way toward women, toward African Americans, it's not going to be played" on his stations, Roberts said.

Meanwhile, all the major stations continue to play offensive music. While issuing platitudes about how they are acting very responsibly in selecting what is aired on their stations, they keep airing trash because money is more important to them than our children and a decent society. It is nothing more than a hypocritical stand by these companies.

The Price of gas AND patriotism

from William L. Wright
visit him at Amberco Presents

I am enclosing a short story I wrote a few months ago that tells it
like it is about trucks and truck drivers. I wish there was some
way you can get this story to the truck drivers.

When you read it, you will understand my point. Please do so.

Here it is . . .

We have been living for some time now with the high cost of
fuel and what it is doing to the trucking industry. This makes
me wonder if you folks are aware of the fact that every single
thing you see out there, including the trees and grass, all got
here by truck.

Originally it came in by mules and wagons, but still -- everything
you can see, from where ever you might be standing, got there
by truck. Everything -- including the rings on your fingers!!!

It all had to be hauled in. Even if it was just from the railroad
yard to the local store -- it came by truck. And that takes
fuel -- lots of fuel.

My father came to Collinsville, OK in 1899 to help his dad
start The Collinsville News, and dad always told me there
wasn't a tree in sight anywhere when he got here. And I have
pictures, of his, that show both Collinsville and Skiatook,
complete with buildings and houses, and there isn't
one tree to be seen anywhere.

Originally this entire country side was covered with buffalo
grass that grew 12 feet high. That means it not only had to
be hauled away by truck, but the grass we now mow had to
be hauled in by truck.

When someone starts a new housing development -- what's
the first thing that is done? They must "clear the land" of the
weeds before they can start to build. And the last thing that
is done is to plant the new grass for you to mow. And all this
was done by truck -- not to mention the stuff needed to build
the houses.

SO -- a great big SO -- if everything we see, use, and eat, has
to get here by truck, doesn't it make sense that when the price
of oil goes up for the trucks it also means the price on everything
else has to go up, too?

And where exactly is that leading us, you might wonder.
Sort of scary, isn't it, especially if it goes on up to $4.00 a
gallon this summer? $100 to fill your car's tank??? And the
main one that makes a big profit on this, other than the oil
companies, is the damned tax collector.

Guess who he is? Our politicians! And I would like to suggest
that the next time you are driving down the highway, cussing
all those danged trucks, you better give it a second thought,
since you would not have a single thing to eat if it weren't for
them.

If they should ever stop, it will take less than three days to
eat all the food in Tulsa, and the rest of the country for that
matter. And this time you won't be able to go to grandma's to
eat out of her garden, like we did back in the 30's.

And the truck drivers could put a stop to all the crazy things
that go on in Washington, D. C., and the rest of our country, by
simply refusing to drive into Washington, D. C. The truck
drivers have our country right in their hands and don't seem
to know it.

It is time someone does something to save our once great
country from the One World Order gang. Please see if you
can find a way to get th is idea to them. I have no way to do
so. My thanks for your time . . .

RESPONSE by an0nymous bobkat

Actually, I have discussed an interstate park-in with
truckers on the radio when driving.

There does not seem to be any interest. They have families
and the fear of loosing their jobs is greater than their patriotism.
Some have tried this and there was not enough support.

All it would take is about a one day park-in for corporate
America to get the idea Truckers could shut this country
down. One day would cost millions of dollars.

It may cost $100. to fill up your car
at $4. gal. but at $2.89 it is $600 to
fill up an 18 wheeler TODAY!

Think you'll be able to buy those veggies if this continues?
My company has over a $3000.00 per month fuel bill running
not even a full fleet of trucks. My hot shot runs average
$400.00 +.

You bet, consumer, you will "eat" this. Profits have to
be made and until someone gets it together, this rage
will continue. But, thanks, William, it is a GREAT idea.

It just lacks the truckers support.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
C~B~N would add that most Americans would not support it as it
would mean being inconvenienced for a few days when we
couldn't get our WANTS at exactly the moment we want them.

When did we become so selfish and self-centered?????
