5/26/00 The Right is really pissed at our Corporate and Political and Media Elites. So is Labor. So is the Left. What is holding them up? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Soon there shall be the will to begin dechartering corporations in the USA. It wouldn't be a bad idea for Europeans to begin looking into what it takes to pull the corporate charter out from under corporate managers and reorganizing the very foundations of corporations. It is easier than it sounds. Joshua2 ======================================================== Republicans trade U.S.A. to Multinational Corporations May 26, 2000 It's official: 164 Republicans and 73 Democrats in the House of Representatives sold the birthright of America for a mess of corporate pottage. Lincoln had it all wrong. It's now a nation of corporate profits, by corporate profits and for corporate profits. Millions of dollars in corporate advertising and congressional lobbying paid off. The House approved permanent Most Favored Nation trade status to Communist China. Did I say lobbying? Bribery might be a better word. At least one congressman has already come forward to say, "I have turned down over $200,000 in multinational corporation PAC money if I would change my vote." He went on to say, "I came to Congress for a reason, and there is not enough money in the world to sway my vote. I will not sell out America's interests." That man is Republican Representative Merrill Cook, who represents Utah's 2nd congressional district. It's too bad the rest of the Republican Party doesn't feel the same way. By contrast, Speaker Dennis Hastert led the effort in the House to bring the Republican Party in line with Bill Clinton's China trade deal. Interestingly, the world's largest maker of construction equipment operates plants in Hastert's 14th Illinois district. Caterpillar Corporation is a major Hastert donor and lobbied hard for PNTR for China. Caterpillar cut a deal with China to set up a plant on the mainland in order to help them build highway-paving equipment. All it needed was PNTR from Congress. They went to Hastert. He is credited with convincing many Republicans who were straddling the fence to get on board. I'm sure Denny Boy can look for a nice token of Caterpillar's appreciation in his Christmas stocking this year. At the same time that Republicans are imitating Neville Chamberlain, Jiang Zemin is imitating Adolf Hitler as China is engaged in the largest military buildup of its history. China seems determined to conquer Taiwan and is quite emphatic that it is willing to risk war with the United States to do it. Meanwhile, U.S. corporations and their co-conspirators in the U.S. Congress are supplying the tools and technology necessary to augment Red China's war machine. One of my favorite quotations comes from the great German reformer, Martin Luther. He said, "If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at the moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages there the loyalty of the soldier is proved. And to be steady on all battlefields beside is merely flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point." There is no doubt in my mind that the main political battlefield for America today is the fight for independence and national sovereignty. America is quickly forsaking its autonomy to a bunch of indifferent internationalists determined to create a global economy and the global government that goes along with it. In this battle, George W. Bush and the entire Republican leadership are AWOL. In fact, neither political party has a red blooded, America-first, better-dead-than-red, "don't tread on me" champion leading it. What they have are a couple of bought-and-paid-for errand boys whose sole purpose in life is doing the bidding of the global elite. All this talk of a "global economy" might sound good at the moment, but just remember this: it wasn't a "global economy" that caused our American forefathers to pledge their lives, fortunes and sacred honor in a brutal revolutionary war. It wasn't a "global economy" that caused our stalwart soldiers to endure that hail of death and destruction on the beaches of Normandy. It wasn't a "global economy" that put our brave patriots on a thousand battlefields. Americans don't bleed and die for money-obsessed, multinational corporations and their dreams of global commerce! Americans know but one country. We are not citizens of the world; we swear no allegiance to any other flag. It's time our nation's leaders remembered that we are Americans first, last and always and will never surrender our independence to any global, New World Order! <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
