Backed Into A Corner

What do you do, as a country, when you have inflated your currency to the point that it is almost worthless, your leaders are involved in the most aggressive empire building campaign since Napoleon, manufacturing is fleeing the country at an alarming rate, and countries who have been loaning us money at a rate of better than $2 billion per day are starting to get cold feet?

It certainly seems like a rough spot to be in. Our international bullying has irreparably damaged our image around the world. When things go sour here in our country, and believe me they will, who will come to our rescue? My fear is that no one will. They will turn their backs on the US, not wanting to get dragged down with us.

You think the depression of the 1930's was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet.

So, our leaders have to be aware of the problems facing us and yet they seem to calm and cool on the surface. When Mexico and Argentina suffered from currency collapse, we, along with the IMF stepped in and bailed them out. But we did it with conditions and those conditions were most unpleasant for the general populations. Are we going to allow the IMF to come in and tell us what to do? I think not.

Here is a little hint of what may be cooking on the back burner over in Washington. It seems that we have had several groups studying the possibility of some sort of North American Union. One such organization is the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North American. (www.ssp.gov) They are looking at ways to facilitate the flow of goods, services, and capital between the US, Mexico, and Canada.

An agreement between George Bush, Vincente Fox, and former Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin in March of 2005 to form this union using Executive Orders and Agreements rather than go through the treaty process, which would require congressional approval.

There is even talk about a new currency called the "Amero," which would replace the dollar. The plan is to have this new union in place by 2010. That's three years away folks.

Now, think about this. In our mad rush to control dwindling resources around the world and build a global empire, we have in effect, destroyed our currency and bankrupted our country. It is just a matter of time before the rest of the world gets the picture, but in the end, we will be able to cancel our debts and convert to a new currency by forming this union.

So it seems the "powers that be" have it all planned out. A way to get rid of debt that we will never be able to repay, move to a new currency that will be on a par with the euro, and build a trading block that rivals any around the world.

But there is always a cost. According to Jerome R. Corsi, the United States will surrender its Constitution and the authority of a North American court and some form of parliamentary body would supercede our nation-state prerogatives. Corsi who has a Ph.D. from Harvard is author of several books, including "Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry", "Black Gold Stranglehold: the Myth of Scarcity and the Politics of Oil", "Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians" and most recently, "Minutemen: The Battle to Secure America's Borders."

So you can see that as a nation we appear to be backed into a financial corner, but our leaders may have one last trick up their sleave.
