The True History of Libertarianism
http://www.alternet.org/visions/true-history-libertarianism-america-phony-ideology-promote-corporate-agenda?akid=10901.253027.6oTMF9&rd=1&src=newsletter893563&t=3&paging=off
The whole problem with libertarianism is, that it is essentially big corporate
propaganda. IT DOES HAVE SOME USE IN THIS PRESENT
POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT, to help regular people regain some
control.
But much of what we take for granted as worker's rights and safety issues,
a lot of it enshrined in law and not dependent on contracts and strikes,
came ONLY as a result NOT of laissez faire capitalism, but of the revolt
by unions (which later became corrupt and oppressive also), and the
freedom loving corporations would get the government as well as private
thugs to come in guns blazing to stop strikes and protests in the 1800s.
Meanwhile, all the accomplishments of big industry and rail and so
forth, were because of govt. involvement with them. Rail was essential
to a lot of business, even small ones, and rail was a product of govt.
partnering with corporate interests.
Laissez faire and no govt. involvement is strictly out the window when
it benefits such people, and only means no govt. oversight. With enough
money (and fear) judges, police, etc. can be bought off.
Laissez faire in the classic libertarian form was NEVER a feature of
the USA or of any economically successful country.
The only principle to observe is, does something promote godliness
and decency and kindness and the interests of the people in a given
context, or not? "principles" like libertarianism and other groups with
agendas like to uphold, over and above all other considerations, are
usually smokescreens and rallying points that often help evil. Not
always, but often.

while I disagree with her on categorizing
Eastern Orthodoxy as she does, this is an

How To Stop Agenda 21 aka Sustainable Development
http://www.agenda21course.com/category/lesson-one/
there are ten lessons, most of it excellent, skip lesson
one and get to the rest of them, study them
and view the videos, they are on youtube so if you
click on the youtube logo at the lower right corner,
you can watch it there and use a video downloader
program to keep a copy.
ESPECIALLY TAKE NOTE OF THE MINDFUCK
DISHONEST AND DESPICABLE DELPHI TECHNIQUE
and fight it on grounds of integrity wherever you find
this abomination in play, whether it is Agenda 21
supporting or anything else. There are lessons here
on how to fight this when it is being played on you
also.
Regardless of the environmental and compassion
line they spew, they are a pack of liars who will
do nothing but harm. About the only good thing
they came up with was the green belt, if that is from
them, and the ultimate goal is to pack everyone in
tiny living space high density housing (a fire or an
airborne pandemic would kill people living like
this easily) and eliminate most rural and semi rural
living and single family housing.
I think a major issue that should be brought up, in arguing against Agenda 21,

I think a major issue that should be brought up, in arguing against Agenda 21,
that the people immediately affected by things should be the ones to make the
decisions. While limited socialism has in fact worked well in some countries,
and frankly it is not correct to call all govt. intervention "socialism" because
that is not socialism;
THE BIG ISSUE IS THAT THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD RUN THINGS FROM
A CENTRAL POSITION OR DIRECT HOW THE LOCALS RUN THINGS,
are not necessarily going to do a good job. (The fraud issues you deal with
are important also in this regard.)
A lot of the anti socialist, libertarian and privatization talk ultimately
emanated from and benefitted only the elites and super rich who
wanted no possibility of intervention in their effects on people, by
government that however sold out it might be to them still had an
eye on careers and re election.
