To fund his reordering of power
in the midst of a steep economic
downturn, Obama has signed into
law 25 tax increases totaling $670
billion over the next ten years,
according to a report issued by the
House Ways and Means Committee.
And Paul Volcker and Nancy Pelosi
-- reacting to the reality that increased
income taxes cannot save the country
from going broke -- are pushing a
Value Added Tax, the most pernicious
of levies that will empower the IRS to
enter places of business unannounced
to demand records and enforce
compliance.
Accompanying the crescendo of taxes,
edicts, and thinly disguised manifestos
is an undertow of societal tectonics
that will rearrange the free-market
system beyond our ability to salvage it.
The steady advance of unionization in
the public sector under Obama -- and
the use of federal power to increase
organized labor in the private sector --
is leading the U.S. to the edge of
syndicalism, the takeover of capitalism
by unions for the purpose of political control

Global Commie Corporate
Unionist Earthday :
The Commie 'need'
to set a Commie framework
for a Commie green Commie
economy ;
The speech is perfectly
planned to kick off debate on
the Energy/Cap-and-Trade Bill in the
Senate .
The American Clean Energy and
Security Act passed by the House
proposes green economic schemes
that should frighten us greatly.
For example, buried on pages
1014-1016 of the bill is the
"Monthly Energy Refund."
According to this trick, for those with
a gross income that "does not exceed
150 percent of the poverty line ... a
direct deposit" of an undisclosed amount
of money will be sent "into the eligible
household's designated bank account[.]"
On pages 502-503 we find the
"Low Income Community Energy
Efficiency Program," whereby grants
will be issued "to increase the flow of
capital and benefits to low income
communities, minority-owned and
woman-owned businesses
and entrepreneurs[.]"
Further proving that this is actually a
welfare scheme, on page 973 we
discover that for workers who lose
their manufacturing jobs because the
caps on their companies are too
repressive and their employer either
has to shut down or move operations
to the third world to avoid regulation,
the "adversely affected worker" shall
receive 70 percent of his prior weekly
wage, "payable for a period not longer
than 156 weeks."
In addition, on pages 986-987 we read
that the unemployed worker can submit
up to $1,500 in job search reimbursements
and get another $1,500 to cover his
moving expenses

Arizona push's back against
the Commie Peril of Illegal
Aliens ;
You can dress your opposition to the
new Arizona immigration law up any
way you want to, but if you're so all
fired concerned about it, I suggest you
move to the border towns that are under
virtual siege by drug gangs and do your
protesting there.
The number of kidnappings and murders
related to illegal crossings of the border
have skyrocketed and the feds act
powerless to stop it.
It is a tough law for tough times, and
under 'ordinary' 'circumstances', would
be seen as "draconian."
But given the fact that it 'is' 'impossible' to
delineate where the US border ends and
where Mexico's begins in many places in
that state, the right of sovereignty
should rule.
Yet the law basically calls
for enforcement of existing statutes :
While police demands of documents
are common on subways, highways
and in public places in some countries,
including France, Arizona is the first state
to demand that immigrants meet federal
requirements to carry identity documents
legitimizing their presence on American soil

Global Commie Corporate Unionist
Voter Fraud In Wisconsin ;
An attempt to hijack the state's election
laws and open the door for voter fraud
failed at the last minute this week in
Wisconsin's legislature.
But threats to ballot integrity continue
in other states, and Congress may rush
to pass ill-conceived legislation this year
that would only sow confusion and increase
the potential for chaos on a national level.
Wisconsin's story shows
how high the stakes are.
Late in March, a 72-page bill was
suddenly introduced and rushed forward
with only abbreviated hearings.
The bill would have given
"nationally recognized" community
organizing groups access to the state
driver's license database to encourage
voter turnout.
After the infamous registration scandals
involving Acorn in 2008, this was clearly
a strange priority.
Requests for an absentee ballot in a
single election would also become
permanent (without requiring a
legitimate reason, such as infirmity),
and the ballots would be automatically
mailed out in future elections.
Coercion and chicanery are made much
easier by the excessive use
of absentee ballots.
Most of the elections thrown out
by courts-Miami, Florida's mayoral
election in 1998, the East Chicago,
Indiana's mayor's race in 2005-involved
fraudulent absentee votes
