The Mission Statement
The government has always been intrinsically linked to the needs and concerns of the economy. Indeed, the American Revolution at it's core was a revolt against the Central Bank of England, and the unfair taxes with which the people of the colonies vehemently opposed.
Their disagreements stemmed not from an anarchical view of taxation, but from the view that the government in Britain fundamentally misunderstood the values and culture of the colonies, how the economy had shaped that culture, and how the erroneous and exorbitant taxes were hindering further economic and cultural development.
There were countless revolts towards authority, obviously the most notable was the Boston Tea Party. The Sons of Liberty defended the colonies from unjustified taxation without representation. The Boston Massacre. The attacks on British commerce ships and schooners, most notable the commerce inspection vessel, HMS Gaspee. The Convocation of the first Continental Congress which led to the boycotting of British goods and trade.
These outward displays of disagreement with the established rule of law, today, are seen as patriotic. These refusals of obedience are seen as integral in the founding of the greatest nation in known history. These predilections of justice have been endeared with almost holy connotations. The American Revolution, as with any revolution, was a rebellion against the prevailing ideology of the time.
Revolutions can be sparked from any number of situations, typically with humanistic concerns at heart. Some revolt against religious persecution, some from lack of access to food and water, others rebel against political ideologies. The American Revolution of 1776 was an economic one.
Since the founding revolution, America has undergone two other economic revolutions, and in that time has established it's own version of a Central Bank, twice. The first occurred during the agricultural and slavery economy, which effectually produced the First Bank of North America and the Second Bank of North America from 1781-1836. From 1837-1862 was the era of free banking. Then in 1863 a National Bank was again called on, this time to help produce capital in the form of bonds with impetus to finance the Civil War.
By this time the Industrial Revolution had begun to lower the cost of labor, and along with the abolition of slavery, forced a change in economic principles. After the "Panic of 1907," the Federal Reserve concept was kicked around as a fallback to current monetary policy. Basically an emergency fund. In 1913 President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into law, upon which bonds were immediately drawn from.
These of course were war-bonds to pay for the first World War. After the war to end all wars (or to define all future wars), the Fed initiated rampant currency manipulation to keep the economy running at war-time-efficiency. In turn, America suffered the Great Depression - or the first major bubble pop from artificially manipulated markets.
Inevitably World War II came along, and the profits from "The Great War Machine" and federally issued bonds came along with it.
War makes the Fed money.
America has perpetually been at war, or some kind of ad hoc operational conflict since the Fed has been in existence.
From WWI and WWII, to the Korean War, to the "Cold" War that wasn't really very cold, to the ridiculous Vietnam War. Then to the War on Drugs, which was an afront for political control over Central America and the liberties of domestic poor and minorities, as well as militarized local police departments across the country. And on to the Gulf War, to the War on "Terror" in Iraq and Afghanistan, to the currently unnamed War in Syria for total political control of the Middle East. These are just major deployments, and doesn't begin to scrape the surface of military operations and engagement in the rest of the world, especially, but not limited to, Africa, South America, and far east Asia.
So, America initially relied upon it's agrarian, slave-driven economy to gain independence from England. Then became a world-leading industrial economy. And finally, used that industrialization to produce it's current economy, the war economy.
This war-based economy has run it's course, and the country's leaders recognize this fact!
With advancements in technology, what drives the economies of the entire world is no longer industrialization or the military industrial complex, therefore, the banking system (designed by the bankers themselves and implemented by politicos paid for by the same bankers) is archaic. We are in the midst of another economic revolution, and should be prepared for a political one as well.
As economies change, policies change to keep up; government is by nature retroactive. When a system built on 100 year old principles begins to strain under the weight of social and technological progress, as is the case now, that system must be abrogated by another. A revolution must occur.
Freedoms are being restricted at an increasingly alarming rate.
Freedom of Movement- Borders, walls, sobriety checkpoints, tolls, licensing, restricted and authorized only zones.
Freedom of Labor- Minimum wage mandates, unions use of force, overtime caps, insurance liabilities based on employee numbers, contractor vs. employee status regulations.
Freedom of Speech- Political correctness, "state secrets" coverups, "national securiry risks," fallacious subversion of context, mainstream media as the longarm of political PR machine, press-zones.
Freedom of Religion- Forcing hypocrisy of traditional values, restriction of travel to specific religious denominations, zoning laws, tax-exempt rules against lobbying.
Freedom of Assembly and Press- Constant use of curfews, the treatment of the Occupy Wall Street protestors, the treatment of the Black Lives Matter protestors, restriction of assembly and press at globalist conventions ie., Bilderberg, UN Councils, CFR Meetings, G20 Climate Conference.
Freedom of Innovation and Advancement- Restrictions on access to patents and use of patents, restrictions of licensing, fiscally oppressive regulations, debt-driven capital.
Freedom of Thought (Ideology)- The two-party fallacy. Rhetoric (words used to explain thoughts and ideas) can brand an individual as Communist or terrorist or supporting terrorism for being anti-establishment or criticizing manifest destiny. Once branded anti-imperial, that individual's rhetoric is cast aside as "not worthy" of consideration.
Fortunately for the people of the World, who largely rely on the success of the American economy, we have an exceptional constitution. A constitution born out of many facets of contention the colonists had with Britain, and current colonists have with the American corporatocracy.
We do not live under Universal Commercial Code. We do not adhere to maritime law. We find divinity in Liberty, and under one rule of law, the Constitution of The United States of America. Ammendments, executive orders, executive addendums, and other tools of constitutional aberration as a result of social and technological advancement have created an environment of confusion, frustration, and anger towards the entire system itself.
We have the foundation of a Republic to lean on to reassemble the broken pieces of individual sovereignty. With that in mind, we should be able to view our country's initial framework universally. That is, to include and respect the sovereignty of all men and women, regardless of creed and irrespective of race; equal.
The intent of this group is to analyze and scrutinize the current state of the world. We are on an event-horizon to bring in a new political and economic system based on social and technological advancement. It is our job to dissect these events as they unfold, and relay the big-picture message to the public.
We will be partly responsible for ushering in this new age. We will work in good faith, understanding knowledge should be free and available for all who seek it. We will not undermine the intelligence of our peers. We will not forge consent with subversions of language. We will respect, but not shy away from upholding any race, religion, or orientation to equal standards. We the brave. We the free. We the strong-willed and iron-minded. We the Republic. We the People.
