Renaissance Executive Summary

Government evolved from the need to protect life and property from predators and plunderers. Socialism is the freedom-destroying economic cancer that was developed by political predators seeking to harness government's power for their own purposes. Politicians uniformly promise more than they can tax making debt and monetary debasement the source of government's power. Politicians and bankers are natural allies and co-conspirators.

"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws." Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812)

"Banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." Thomas Jefferson, 1809.

Gresham's Law of Politicians begins the explanation of why good men are at a disadvantage in seeking public office. Campaign funding and Campaign Finance Laws passed by incumbents work to prevent good men from winning office over power-seeking professional politicians. The Reagan Wing of the Republican Party is crucial to defeating all power-seeking anti-freedom professional politicians. It is a set of unique capitalistic campaign funding mechanisms that make the Reagan Wing possible. And it is our Reagan Wing candidates together with the modern equivalents of Paul Revere and Thomas Paine who are going to alert the American people and inform them of how the growing cancer of socialism can finally be challenged and definitively defeated. No stone can be left unturned in the debate over freedom versus socialism. Politically effective requires the recognition that tolerating politically correct is exactly analogous to tolerating a little touch of leprosy. Koch's postulates, formulated by Robert Koch and Friedrich Loeffler in 1884, are four criteria designed to establish a causal relationship between a causative microbe and a disease. These webpages and Market Based Management are the components needed to forge Koch's political postulates into a politically effective tool that will enable the American people to launch a modern Renaissance that can serve as a global model.

This article will be posted twice as it serves two purposes. It is both an executive summary that tells the reader what is to come, the titles of the articles that will be posted as part of the series. And it will serve as a sitemap when the series is complete. Each of the article titles will be converted into links to the articles on the FreeRepublic website. As a preview of how this will work, click on the "Introduction" link which will open yesterday's article where this series was announced.

Two of the articles are direct appeals to Charles and David Koch. Three of the articles cover some history that is fundamentally important to understand. Three articles are devoted to what has been termed "The Great Debate". Our definition of socialism not only includes government planning, but also wealth redistribution. Government planning (an oxymoron) is bad enough, but it is the agenda connected with the redistribution of wealth that turns socialism into economic, societal, and moral cancers. If We the people are to recover our freedoms, We the people must win "The Great Debate". Three articles touch on how political power can be built and leveraged exponentially in order to defeat the socialists that presently dominate our political systems. And there are five articles that discuss the various moving pieces of the plan and how they interact to generate this leverage. Several of the articles perform double duty.

Sarah Palin is on Facebook and Twitter. Koch Industries is on Twitter and several contact forms and email addresses are scattered on the company website. Please feel free to use those contact opportunities to share a link with Sarah Palin and Mr. Koch to these articles on FreeRepublic.

Thank you.

The word "Vintage" is actually derived from the age of the longest serving member of a group (me) with a date of birth that precedes the "boomers" by a number of years, as in well-seasoned or aged. It is a bit of oversight that "Freeper" is singular instead of plural, "Freepers".

It is our hope that it comes to have a deeper significance. One definition of "ingenuity" is making the impossible, possible. Far too many Americans have given up on the idea that government can be put back into its Constitutional cage. Many believe its relentless growth is going to be with us until we are all reduced to serfs.

Very little of the thinking that has given rise to the Renaissance Plan is original. But the plan developers have pulled the various pieces together in a way that might make it possible for the right group of people to be able to execute it successfully. It is our fondest hope, that by the time the complete series of these articles has been published, that there will be enough Freepers that will come to believe that the thinking embraced by the Renaissance Plan is ingenious, that the term "vintage" might then also be applicable to the minds that recognized it and pulled it together.
