Dare To Inquire: What Makes America Great? |
Category: Articles 8 comments 4 Jul 2005 @ 18:24 by ankh : Have you read this?Does he answer questions like how can our Supreme Court screw us over with the eminent domain law? Take away a lot of our freedoms through fear? Make us keep paying taxes for things that will never materialize or help us. Yes, America is great in some respects, but it is failing miserably in others and it seems like what this country WAS founded for has been forgotten by our government. 4 Jul 2005 @ 18:35 by jstarrs : What makes America Great? It's people are greater than the sum of it's leaders. Only they're sleeping. 4 Jul 2005 @ 18:41 by bkodish : yes jstarrs everyone in America who doesn't agree with your political opinions is asleep. what other explanation could there be? 4 Jul 2005 @ 18:50 by bkodish : To Interstellar "Great" doesn't mean absolutely perfect in all respects. Lon Cantor discusses some of America's flaws in his chapter, "Feet of Clay." 4 Jul 2005 @ 18:58 by jstarrs : Do you have no doubt, bkodish? "No more to say, and nothing to weep for but the Beings in the Dream, trapped in it's disappearance, sighing, screaming with it, buying and selling pieces of phantom, worshipping each other. worshipping the God included in it all-longing or inevitability?-while it lasts, a Vision-anything more? from Kaddish by Allen Ginsberg 4 Jul 2005 @ 21:17 by bkodish : Thanks for the poetry from Ginsberg Here's something I like by Mary Everest Boole: "Coals of Fire From the Altar of the Unknown God" "Study those who misunderstand you; learn from those who dispise you; and help, whenever you honestly can, those who are trying to hinder you. So shall you be known as children of our Father, the Universal Light." 5 Jul 2005 @ 13:17 by vaxen : Our Government... didn't forget a thing. What you've been told about why this country was founded, read the Treaty of Paris, and what really happened are two entirely different things (Bejamin Franklin "Esquire!" ;( ). Do a little study and you'll find that our government 'of the people, by the people, and for the people, is not at all amiss and they have the perfect right to do what they are doing. Only the people do not know 'the Law.' There's the rub. There are remedies for every single point that nora mentions. Evil is still evil even under the 'color' of the law. You must "KNOW WHO YOU ARE" and use the right courts in order to eek out an 'equitable' remedy. Knowing the ancient law of commerce is just a beginning but know it you must if you want 'justice.' A Tort is a Tort. The Law of Nations should be sudied, as well as the UCC. 'The Constitution of/for the united Sates of America' is a contract. Nothing more, nothing less.The "Declaration of Independence," a declaratory 'trust,' is an ordinance, a 'public trust,' within "the Law of Nations." We are still very much a British Colony operating under the 'Law Merchant.' Of course those whose business it is to practice subterfuge and deceit for profit do not want you to know that, thus the educational institutions only promulgate 'the Grand Deception.' You think I am kidding when I say: "The UNITED STATES went bankrupt in 1933!" All your gold, the fictitious gold in fort knox, was then sent to 'Swizterland!' It was illegal to own gold and silver and it WAS confiscated! Read those Federal Reserve 'Notes.' They aren't worth the paper they are printed on because they are 'NOTES (promises to pay) not MONEY! There is a difference. You have been made chattel. All your work and everything you thought you owned is not owned by you! You've made a contract that you never knew you made. Know what a certificate is? Certificates are worth money. Look it up. Your birth certificate is a contract! So is your Citizenship. Invisible Contracts...therein is the fraud and therein is the remedy. All that the entertainment business, and the mass media conglomerates, do is keep your mind 'off' the fact that you've been sold down the river. The people who sit, and claim to be your representatives, in their seats in the White House, in the territory known as the District of Columbia, do not work for you...they work for the International Bankers who now own the country lock stock and barrel... and that includes the people. These are facts, not blind conjecture. And, I can back them up...heh! I've been doing that for years. So? So get educated, get out of 'the system,' reclaim your Identity. You are not 'a legal fiction,' unless you do not challenge that position. Rebuttal is recourse. Oh, America is great enough. Just needs a bit of a sweeping out is all. Thanks Bruce. Oh, don't forget that it is the people who create the government and not the other way around. Read the law of nations. Then start studying the truth about what has been done to the Aamerican people but also know that therein is the remedy. Knowledge really is power. Law is basically nothing more than Agreement and Tresspass. Get that straight. Agreement and Tresspass. Burn it into your mind. Agreement and Tresspass. Common Law is not Equity Law. Nor are you a 'ship.' ;) TaTa Are you a 'person' or a 'man/woman?' A 'flesh and blood' human being or a 'legal fiction?' "Paper Money is Theft."--George Washington 6 Jul 2005 @ 06:53 by astrid : THANKS vax, for yet another excellent piece of information. Then I would say this: Of course America IS great BUT FOR EXACTLY WHAT REASONS?... The NATURAL Beauty of the Land, for one thing. For the wonderful NATIVES (the children of the few, that survived the biggest Man-slaughter in all of Mankind's entire History) and for many countless other reasons! I agree with you on Americas (POTENTIAL) Greatness!
