This is part of an opinion I had in a local paper in Bart Stupaks district..
EDITOR:The American people are about to be put on a path that will cost them their liberty. A little history for you to think about after you read this.
There was a nation that was the leader of the world in science and tech and manufacturing. This nation had a debt so huge it could not pay its bills, so it printed money, so much so that it actually took a bushel basket of money to buy a loaf of bread. As a result, a man came to power in that nation who was a great speaker and could tune into the masses. He mesmerized those citizens so that they did not question whatever he proposed. The party he represented gained power by first, getting control of the news media and then abolishing any opposition by any other media to he and his party.
Then they gained control of the education system propagandizing the children to worship him and whoever did not attend “the schools” were at first shunned/beaten up and later disappeared. They gained control of the medical system and many of the elderly and mentally ill disappeared.
At first the military did not support this man or his party but later when the military were purged. They swore oath to him giving him control, which gave him complete control over the entire nation by all means.
He installed a police force and with the help of this nation’s citizens, you were taken away and never seen again if you spoke out against this man.
He allowed the capitalists to remain in their places running their business as long as they supported his party and supplied them with materials to do what they wanted, in short, they knew they could not survive without the likes of Krupp Steel.
The ultimate result was the complete destruction of this nation. Sound familiar? This was the National Socialist Workers Party of Germany and its leader is infamous in history.
My question to you is this. Why on earth would any political party commit suicide in this country by trying to push an agenda onto its people like one political party is trying in this country?
Unless, they might be thinking of never giving up power? You know what I am talking about. The health care issue that is before us, which will give control over you as well as the Cap and Trade the will come up before this is over.
I am talking about a cost that is unimaginable to you not only in money but liberty.
That piece was in the Iron Mountain Daily, Iron Mountain Mich, last Oct.
There will be no more elections.
We are officially in a dictatorship.
