That’s right.

The last line of the quoted material gives the President of the United Staes the power to “control the general distribution of any material (including services) in the civilian market.” This seems to be no less than the nationalization of all food, energy, water, and healthcare pipelines and providers in the country.

Good time to start using cash to buy the emergency food stocks at the local gun shows.

You would hate to use a credit card to buy a few cases of Mountain House # 10 cans, have the transaction recorded at the new NSA facility in Utah, Obama declare and emergency and then have the Feds knock on your door demanding the food.

[....necessary to protect national security.]

Didn’t Hitler do something like this???

Wow - I can’t believe we are here - this being 2012 - and an act like this going forward while everyone is more worried about what type of cell phone they have and when the Wii games are coming out...

...the grand ole strategy of “keep the masses stupid” is ringing true...

What I want to know is why is this not being reported anywhere?

The left went apoplectic when Bush signed the Patriot Act and Obama has systematically gone way, way beyond anything Bush ever did. Now we have the precursor to Marshall law and not one media outlet even mentions this?

It’s absolutely amazing that Progressives continually called George Bush a Nazi; absolutely amazing.

IMHO

Pretty amazing that someone who is not even Constitutionally qualified to be president is being allowed to single-handedly destroy this nation. Not a single EO he has devised or law he has signed is even legal.

If this is what is happening, you think you want to purchase any more guns and ammo?

Think again.

Again, Obama has crossed the line, but I'm confident that the GOP led House will revoke this Executive Order.

This section says it all:
Sec. 102.  Policy.  The United States must have an industrial and technological base capable of meeting national defense requirements and capable of contributing to the technological superiority of its national defense equipment in peacetime and in times of national emergency.  The domestic industrial and technological base is the foundation for national defense preparedness.  The authorities provided in the Act shall be used to strengthen this base and to ensure it is capable of responding to the national defense needs of the United States.“

This uses national defense as a cover for directing the whole economy “in peacetime and in times of national emergency” through the functionaries listed in the rest of the decree. This is the most outrageous grasp for power by the Federal Government since the NRA (National Recovery Administration) of the 1930s.

Truly, this is Zwangswirtschaft {directed or forced economy) Nazi-style. No longer should we be discussing whether 0 is a radical, a socialist, or a communist. Now he could just as well be called a fascist.

It is amazing that the news media have not reacted to this. I am serious: even the usual suspects (NBC, CBS, ABC, NYTimes, &c) should be wondering about this. Needless to say, what if Bush had issued a decree like this?

Compared to 0, Hitler was in some ways a moderate. At least Hitler had a plebiscite to ratify his rule: it was run in a one-sided way, with little opposition allowed, but nonetheless — by contrat, 0 is not even observing the amenities.

Bush signed off on an executive order that was essentially identical to this one.

So what’s in it for Zero to sign such an act. What does he gain by the act of such signing?

The only thing I can gather (and the most likely thing) is this causes all the little functionaries go to off to their little cubby holes and start implementing this defacto takeover of all phases of American life. The Ag secretary has to figure out how exactly to control all the food resources. The Interior secretary (or whoever) the water resources and on down the line.

My point? Simply that the thing to be afraid of is not only the order itself but the motivation behind it. It’s like the iron fist is coming out from inside the glove.

American Presidents have had exactly this same power since 1939. This EO has been amended multiple times by nearly every President since.

The problem is who is wielding that power.

Elections have consequences.

The executive order gives the administration power to take over any business, and to command for free, without compensation, the services of executives, experts and anyone they please aka enslavement. the nazis weren't this organized in the 1940's.

Might as well let Private Pyle run the country in mismanagement by micromanagement.

Among those materials could be gold and silver which many believe could be used as currency (as specified in the Constitution) were the paper dollars issued by this private bank called The Fed to lose their purchasing power through hyper-inflation.

By regulating the use of precious metals or just confiscating them as did FDR, Obama could try to force Americans to continue to use worthless paper dollars as currency, allowing the current dollar printing scheme to continue.

If the FedGov controls all buying and selling, they control everything.

Perhaps he is preparing for an Occupy riot? Wouldn’t that be handy?

The elections are in November and obama will still be president until the new CINC tries to take control in Jan. obama can utilize any orders HE deems necessary to retain control during that time. If he does anything it will be after he loses in Nov.
