NEW YORK – A government that is constitutionally required to offer each citizen a "useful" job in the farms or industries of the nation.
A country whose leadership intercedes to ensure every farmer can sell his product for a good return.
A nation that has the power to act against "unfair competition" and monopolies in business.
This is not a description of Cuba, communist China, or the USSR until 1991. It's the vision of the future of the U.S, as mandated by a radical new "bill of rights" drawn up and pushed by President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein. Until now, Sunstein's proposal has received little scrutiny.
In 2004, Sunstein penned a book, "The Second Bill of Rights: FDR'S Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More than Ever," in which he advanced the radical notion that welfare rights, including some controversial inceptions, be granted by the state. His inspiration for a new bill of rights came from President Roosevelt's 1944 proposal of a different, new set of bill of rights.
WND has learned that in April 2005, Sunstein opened up a conference at Yale Law School entitled "The Constitution in 2020," which sought to change the nature and interpretation of the Constitution by that year.

Ping.
Sunstein is phenomenally dangerous, definitely a standout. Another among many, he is to be carefully watched. He will be one of the most agressive communist idealogues in the 0bama regime.
Tick....Tock...
Hopefully his dog will sue him.
LOL !
So, what does it really mean (the oath) “to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” How does one go about protecting and defending the Constitution? It is pretty obvious that it has both foreign and domestic enemies.
Someone should bring a suit on behalf of his dog for Slavery.
“Someone should bring a suit on behalf of his dog for Slavery.”
That’s doggist! More generically, Pettist!
This may be the stupidest thing I have ever read and I am sure he feels that he is brilliant to have written it. Of course in the purest and theoretical sense there is no complete liberty without some dependence. But this is like the physicist who knows that there are spaces in between atoms and in theory you can walk through a wall...but you don’t DO it. Or the old idea that you really CAN’T walk across a room. You can’t separate out pieces of reality and then act on that. If you take a flower apart and put the leaves and petals and stems in a jar you do not then have a “flower” though the parts are there. Essentially this is what he is doing with ideas like freedom. Freedom is a wholistic CONCEPT and leftists do not deal well with CONCEPTS. They simply have a bunch of parts and they really are not able to conceptualize them to make sense as a whole. Some chip is missing in this guy’s brain.
Well, it appears that none of the “czars” have been vetted nor taken the oath — albeit they take the pay.
How can that be?
Actually what this shows is these people have no idea how things get done or how the world works. They can’t fix anything, make anythng or do anything worthwhile. They talk for a living.
If you do not see that we are being attacked by communists by now then you are willfully ignorant, a Democrat, or a thick-headed, McCain type Republican.
“aggressive communist idealogue”
There is no other kind, FRiend.
In his new book, The Second Bill of Rights, Sunstein seeks to give constitutional status to welfare rights. The title comes from Franklin Roosevelt’s 1944 State of the Union address, in which he proclaimed that “necessitous men are not free men” and proposed a “second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity can be established for all.” Among the rights FDR proposed were the rights to “a useful and remunerative job,” “a decent home,” “adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health,” “adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment,” and “a good education.”
