How To Destroy America: Think "Herd."
By James T. Moore (03/20/07)
The American Dream is a reality that only can be attained with self-determination and freedom. And in America anything that hinders that in any way is reason for suspicion and concern. So when I ran across an unfamiliar word--communitarianism--and found out what it means, a red flag went up.
The word surfaced in “The United Nations’ Global Straightjacket”, a heavily-documented book, by Joan Veon, which reveals everything that the UN is doing to subvert the principles, values, culture, and heritage of America.
Communitarianism is a tricky word because it is long enough to be glossed over, and obscure enough to sound harmless; or at least not attract too much attention. But don’t be taken in. Communitarianism, as Veon explains, is a new “marketing” concept, replacing the old communistic line of thinking, which passing time has turned into a non-sequitur for most Americans.
Central to communitarianism (read: collectivism) is that no individual opinion should be dominant. Instead, individuals are “encouraged” to act for the “good” of the community. This suggests an authoritarian form of government, i.e. no opposition to THEIR way of thinking. And just who are THEY? Anyone who is an enemy of individuality and freedom. While the New World Order THEY are trying to peddle is supposed to exist as a global “community”, it still needs leadership---THEIR leadership.
The fact is, communitarianism requires “reinventing government”, literally. Bill Clinton, in 1993, couldn’t have made it more clear---for his own purposes, of course: “We intend to redesign, to re-invent, to reinvigorate the entire national government.” And Al Gore, not wanting to be too badly upstaged, referred to “we the people” as customers, instead of citizens.
But Veon tells us that communitarianism is more than just reinventing government, it’s reinventing communism, by giving it a new, harmless-sounding, non-intrusive name. Before you say this is nit-picking, or an innocent play on words, or linguistic mumbo jumbo, consider the following five facts:
(1) Communitarianism is now taking hold not just in America, but on a global basis, including, of all places, in Russia; (2) Communitarianism is one of the important principles of the United Nations Charter. (3) Communitarianism requires wealth redistribution on a world-wide basis, for global economic security. This means decentralized control of wealth creation, i.e. legal plunder; (4) Communitarianism (or reinventing the government) necessitates changing the U.S. Constitution to fit an international UN agenda, adopting global programs for social security, a global financial system, school-to-work programs, etc, with the United Nations playing a crucial role; (5) Communitarianism negates individual and independent thinking, and this is readily apparent in all the actions and goals of the United Nations. (If this also sounds like the goal of the present administration, good for you, you’re thinking.
Author Leonard Piekoff’s take on it: “The theory is that the group (the collective) has primacy over the individual. Collectivism holds that in human affairs the collective, the society, the community, the nation, the race, etc. is the unit of reality, the standard of value. In this view, the individual has reality only as part of the group, and value only so far as he serves it. On his own he has no political rights. He is to be sacrificed for the group whenever it---or its representative, the state---deems this desirable.”
Our founding fathers came to America to escape tyranny of all kinds. Including being serfs under a master. They wanted freedom and self-determination so they wrote a Constitution and Bill of Rights to guarantee it. In our founding days, a United Nations would have been unthinkable.
So, we have a choice to make---which seems we have trouble making---keep and defend our constitutional government, which places individual rights above all else; or be suckered into a communitarian government that puts group rights above the individual. The future of America---your children and grandchildren---wait for our decision.
And all this time you believed it when somebody told you that communism was dead.
