Once again the historic Independence Day Fourth of July celebration was inspiring. The evening before I had gone to see the newly launched very impressive movie, “AMERICA,” produced by Gerald Molen and Dinesh D’Souza in which they provided thought-provoking analysis of the present, past and future of our country. 

It was professionally produced and beautifully presented, stimulating viewers to follow up with their own personal evaluations and perspectives. Although the movie left one with a feeling of pride, optimism and patriotism, it also generated some uncomfortable feelings of skepticism and concern over some weaknesses forming within our government and way of life.  

The film did briefly introduce areas that deserve immediate attention if we expect to save the country we love and the form of government which has become the envy of many countries throughout the world. Our land, admired for its opportunity and prosperity for each individual, is seriously threatened.

Surfing the Internet provides broadened perspective and insight. Globalism, which we have been frequently hearing about, is truly upon us, one aspect of which is the flood of people passing freely across our borders from foreign countries. We as a nation cannot continue to overlook or shrug off the obvious outcomes of this ongoing invasion which has recently and severely been accelerated. 

Following are some of my perspectives on what has been happening over an extended period of time and is now reaching a climax.

It becomes obvious to me that President Obama is seeking to bankrupt America preparing to deliver this country and its assets to the United Nations complete with its infrastructure intact: buildings, highway and transportation systems, power generation facilities, etc. Locked up and protected from use by current citizens will be the natural resources, open space agricultural lands, watersheds complete with dams and irrigation systems and what is left of industrial plants and businesses. Federally funded welfare provisions including Indian reservations, schools, and health-care facilities which are funded primarily through credit, could be collapsed at any time.

The new health-care system is already incapable of caring for needs of the current populations and is especially burdened by aging populations and veterans from current and past wars. With these first to be cut, it would free up funding to provide for more healthy and productive populations and their children essential to future generations.

The importing of human masses from poor countries coincides with the global goal of wealth redistribution in combination with the levelling off of American prosperity and world dominance. We see that program now underway with diseased immigrants in particular contributing to the overload of our faulty, under-funded health-care system. 

Globalist desire for population reductions would be facilitated by epidemics of imported incurable diseases. All of this undermines American freedoms and opportunity for both citizens and legal immigrants.

Jobs have gone overseas, thereby increasing welfare roles and demand for federal funding to meet needs at local levels. Living expenses increase as food and energy costs rise with these industries subjected to increasing environmental restrictions devoid of scientific rationale. Land values decline with more intrusive and stringent regulations and ever higher taxation, encumbering private property and eroding the bottom line. Government acquisition and control over land and water will ultimately eliminate private property, the foundation of the free enterprise system.

The final clincher in the redistribution of wealth: The take-over and control of financial wealth and savings. Refer to the recent EPA Federal Register Notice on wage garnishment (Wednesday, July 2). It basically represents control by the federal government over the amount of money to which you should be entitled. Your bank accounts could be attached at any time the government determines that you owe them money. 

Governmental agencies are already establishing policies creating exorbitant increases in costs of living. They can target certain individuals in the interest of redistribution of wealth. A comment made recently by a doctor indicates he expects no federal health-care coverage for operations or medical care for patients over 62. They will have to pay for their own. Federal health-care funding will be limited to young, healthy, working, reproductive patients whose children then belong to the wtate. 

One ruling already in place in Illinois: no driver’s licenses for those over 82. Without transportation, they will be forced into urban, high-density housing, dependent upon public services.

We must all pay attention as these new edicts appear, write our congressional represenatives and voice our resistance. We must restore and protect the “AMERICA” of the movie. It’s not too late, YET.
