Mark,I have not read all of the information you posted on this thread, but I did scan the first few pages.
You mentioned one of the most important documents any American could ever read(my pinion) which I have posted all over the net, begging people to read it.
I still don't understand the reluctance to read such a short government document which shows that much of what is going on now was planned way back in 1961.
The document, "Freedom From War" is one of the key pieces needed to understand why the US is on it's current path.
If I had the power, I would make it required reading for every High School in America.
The information you hav eposted on this thread is the main reason I am no longer active in the chemtrial movement.
In my opinion, if chemtrails stoped tommorow, I would still be every bit as concerned about the future of this country, as I am with these trails being sprayed over our heads on a regular basis.
The following are just a few quotes which relate to this thread.
ENJOY,
BRENT

"In 1995 Gallup pollsters found that 39 percent of Americans said that "the federal government has become so large and powerful that it poses an immediate threat to the rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens." Pollsters couldn't believe it, so they tried again, taking out the word "immediate." This time 52 percent of Americans agreed."
(David Boaz, Executive Vice-President of the Cato Institute, 1997)
"The Great Irony of the 20th Century is that the systems of democracy and capitalism engaged in a century long battle of attrition against the systems of socialism and centralized economic planning and actually believe that they have been victorious. If we compare the remnants of the democratic and capitalist systems today with what they were when the battle first began, we can clearly see that these systems have been completely infiltrated and undermined by the socialist beliefs they fought so hard to defeat. The prime example being that total U.S. government spending (federal, state and local) in 1900 was less than 12% of the national income, whereas in 2000, it is nearly 50%."
(The CyberNation of Freedom, 2000)
"Major wars aside, government spending from 1800 to 1929 did not exceed about 12 percent of the national income. Two-thirds of that was spent by state and local governments, mostly for schools and roads. As late as 1928, federal government spending amounted to about 3 percent of the national income." ( Milton and Rose Friedman, Free to Choose, 1980) "By 1950, total U.S. government spending (federal, state and local) had reached 25 percent of the national income, by 1993 45 percent (Milton Friedman, Introduction to The Road to Serfdom, 1994 ed.), and today is nearly 50 percent."
(The CyberNation of Freedom, 2000)
"On February 25, 1913 Amendment XVI to the U.S. Constitution was enacted authorizing Congress, for the first time, to levy income taxes on individuals to pay for the operations of the government. Income taxes in 1913 ranged from 1% on incomes of $20,000 to 6% on incomes above $500,000, and the highest total tax was 7%. Today, a mere 86 years later, the average individual pays nearly 50% of his or her income in taxes of one form or another. The federal income tax is only half the picture, for one must also consider the following: state income taxes, state disability taxes, social security taxes, medicare taxes, medicaid taxes, unemployment insurance taxes, local taxes, property taxes, capital gains taxes, estate and inheritance taxes, gift taxes, sales taxes, electricity taxes, water taxes, sewage taxes, telephone taxes, cable taxes, corporate taxes, import taxes, export taxes, luxury taxes, gasoline taxes, alcohol taxes, tobacco taxes, vehicle registration taxes, hotel accommodation taxes, airplane ticket taxes, building permit taxes, regulation taxes, licensing taxes, parking taxes, etc. Governments have even stooped to the level of organizing and operating gambling lotteries to raise revenues."
(The CyberNation of Freedom, 2000)
"The tax laws undermine the country's prosperity by imposing needlessly harsh penalties on work, savings, and investment. Although many taxpayers face confiscatory tax rates and often are forced to pay more than one layer of tax on their income, the politically well-connected can take advantage of special deductions, credits, preferences, shelters, and loopholes to minimize their own tax liability. The result of this double standard is a tax system that not only penalizes productive behavior, but also violates the fundamental constitutional principle of equal treatment under the law."
(Heritage Foundation)
"The capital of the United States is a city with no real industry except for politics and influence, and so huge sums of money are paid to lobbyists trying to influence politicians. Last year $1.42 billion was spent in that endeavor, a research group said today. That total was a 13 percent increase over the $1.26 billion that lobbyists were paid in 1997, said the group, the Center for Responsive Politics." "The $1.42 billion was paid to lobbyists by airplane manufacturers, bankers, doctors and lawyers, drug companies, hospitals, universities, Indian tribes - in short, by just about any person or any institution that has business before the Federal Government." "In mid-1997, there were 14,946 lobbyists registered in Washington, the center's report said. A year later there were 18,590, and by June 15 there were 20,512, or about 38 lobbyists for each member of the House and the Senate."
(The New York Times, David Stout. July 29, 1999 Page A14.)
"The index alone for the Code of U.S. Federal Regulations now extends to over 1000 pages in length, and the listings of the regulations themselves span 50 separate volumes, each containing multiple books. The rulings, regulations, bulletins, etc. that medical professionals must adhere to for medicare, started in 1965, now number over 110,000 pages (Mayo Clinic). The United States Budget Bill passed into law on October 21, 1998 is 4,000 pages in length, weighs over 40 pounds, and is comprised of funding for every special interest ever imagined. The most glaring example is the United States tax code, which is over 7.5 million words, runs over 38,000 pages, and is repeatedly changed so as to remain confusing and unintelligible to the average citizen. Compare these to the fact that the entire United States Constitution (1787) and Bill of Rights (1791) are less than 5 pages combined."
(The CyberNation of Freedom, 2000)
"The abandonment of self-discipline has ignited a regulatory explosion. The number of [U.S.] government agencies has doubled in ten years. On average, for every new law passed by Congress, unelected bureaucrats turn out 18 new regulations with the force of law. It is down this road that whole nations go from regulation to regimentation to tyranny."
(Paul Harvey, 199
The public school system: "Usually a twelve year sentence of mind control. Crushing creativity, smashing individualism, encouraging collectivism and compromise, destroying the exercise of intellectual inquiry, twisting it instead into meek subservience to authority."
Walter Karp, Editor Harper's Magazine
"On both sides of the Atlantic, it is only a little overstated to say that we preach individualism and competitive capitalism, and practice socialism." (Milton Friedman, 1994, from the Introduction to The Road to Serfdom by F.A. Hayek, page xvii.)
My notion of democracy is that under it the weakest shall have the same opportunities as the strongest…no country in the world today show any but patronizing regard for the weak…Western democracy, as it functions today, is diluted fascism…true democracy cannot be worked by twenty men sitting at the center. It has to be worked from below, by the people of every village.
--Gandhi
Politics I supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
--Ronald Reagan
Can any of you seriously say the Bill of Rights could get through Congress today? It wouldn’t even get out of committee.
--F. Lee Bailey
A concern for states rights, local self government and regional identity used to be taken for granted everywhere in America. But the United States is no longer, as it once was, a federal union of diverse states and regions. National uniformity is being imposed by the political class that runs Washington, the economic class that owns Wall Street and the cultural class in charge of Hollywood and the Ivy League.
--Michael Hill, professor of British History, University of Alabama
"I hope we have once again reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There's a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts." (Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, January 11, 1989)
Such democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.
--James Madison, Federalist Paper #50
Our two-party system is a fraud, a sham, a delusion. On foreign policy, trade, immigration, Big Government, we have one-party government, one party press; and conservatives are being played for suckers.
--Patrick J Buchanan
The record of the 105th Congress, Republican controlled in both houses, is an abomination. Spending is up. No major program or agency has been significantly cut, much less eliminated. The tax code is more complex than ever, loaded down with new conservative social engineering initiatives. The balanced-budget agreement is an excuse no to cut taxes and, with the ‘surplus’ an excuse to increase spending. The GOP has seemed intent on federalizing every crime on the books, indifferent to the Constitution’s clear direction that crime is a state and local responsibility….The federal government is a machine designed to increase its control over the lives of average Americans. It is constantly probing here, pushing there, and generally increasing its control. Without a philosophically sound, constitutionally based political party opposing that process, it is going to continue to do so with impunity. The philosophical leadership vacuum at the top of the GOP should be a source of major concern to all freedom-loving Americans.
--Edward H. Crane, Cato Institute
Being elected to Congress is regarded as being sent on a looting raid for one's friends.

HELEN KELLER MAY HAVE BEEN BLIND, BUT SHE COULD SEE BETTER THAN MOST Americans.......
Our democracy is but a name. We vote? What does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats. We choose between Tweedledum and Tweedledee.
--Helen Keller
Voters who live off taxpayers are the Democrats' ace in the hole. The Democrats created big programs and never let the recipients forget it. This gives them an initial advantage of tens of millions of votes in any presidential election.
--Joseph Sobran
Alabama Governor George Wallace once said, “There is not a dime’s worth of difference between the Democratic and Republican parties. He was right. As the 1996 elections reconfirmed, the United States has a single political party masked as a two-party system. Minority parties are impotent.
--Thomas H. Naylor. The Baltimore Sun
Here's a quote from Woodrow Wilson, who was duped into delivering the USA into the hands of the International Bankers. This is from a speech given in 1912.....
"We are at the parting of the ways. We have, not one or two or three, but many, established and formidable monopolies in the United States. We have, not one or two, but many, fields of endeavor into which it is difficult, if not impossible, for the independent man to enter. We have restricted credit, we have restricted opportunity, we have controlled development, and we have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated, governments in the civilized world-no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and the duress of small groups of dominant men."

"Maybe we ought to see that every person who gets a tax return receives a copy of the Communist Manifesto with it so he can see what's happening to him." * T. Coleman Andrews, Commissioner of IRS, May 25, 1956 in U.S. News & World Report
"To lay with one hand the power of government on the property of the citizen, and with the other to bestow it on favored individuals ... is none the less robbery because it is ... called taxation." * United States Supreme Court in Loan Association v. Topeka (1874)
"Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths." * President James Madison
Alan Bock, `Orange County Register': "The median family of four ... paid $4,722 in federal taxes last year. That's enough to pay for a new curtain for the secretary of commerce's office, to bribe a farmer not to plant 38 acres with corn ... seven weeks of salary for a Customs man assigned to save us from the terror of high-quality, low priced foreign TV sets, or the subsidy on 6,000 bushels of wheat to prop up the Soviet regime. Surely civilization would collapse without such essential services."
"Democracy – A government of the masses. Authority derived through mass meeting or any form of direct expression. Results in mobocracy. Attitude toward property is communistic - negating property rights. Attitude toward law is that the will of the majority shall regulate, whether it is based upon deliberation or governed by passion, prejudice, and impulse, without restraint or regard for consequences. Results in demagogism, license, agitation, discontent, anarchy."
