Using the Delphi Method to Achieve Consensus

Never leave home without it-“it” being knowledge of how the Delphi Method is used against the citizen by City Planners and NGO’s- especially if you are heading to a meeting being held by these same folks to decide important decisions about your community: link

LESSON 1: Introduction to Agenda 21

Agenda 21 CourseThis is the first lesson in a series of ten lessons on Agenda 21, commonly known as Sustainable Development. Today we will  learn the…

Definition of Agenda 21, a short history, and the 3 E’s

So, what is Agenda 21, also referred to as “Sustainable Development”?  It is NOT an environmental movement, it IS a political movement which seeks to control the world’s economy, dictates its development, captures and redistributes the world’s wealth on a national, state, and local level.

The process locks away land and resources from use by citizens, and plans a central economy, while controlling industry, transportation, food production, water, and the growth, size, and location of the population. Continue reading

Want to see crazy?

This is your chance (Run, if you can!) to see bureacracy in action. This is the “Notice of Funding Availability for HUD’s Fiscal Year 2010 Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program”. To think that some federal employee is paid to write this tedious gobbly-gook. Page after page explaining in confusing/vague terms how your federal government is using your tax dollars to promote social, economic, and environmental justice. It is enough to make your head explode! link

Stop Agenda 21-John Birch Society

Stop Agenda 21-The John Birch Society

This site was selected for two reasons, if you go on this page to the section headed “Take Action”, where it says “Ask your State Legislators for a Stop Agenda 21 Bill,” and click on that, you will have a super easy time contacting both your State Senator and Representative. This site does the hard part.  Also, in the same area is an “Agenda 21 Rollback Manual”. This manual will give you a lot more ideas on helping to stop Agenda 21 and helping to restore our Republic:  link

Henry Lamb: Confronting Agenda 21 Part 1

This first video in the very valuable three part series focuses on the various ways that NGO’s and City Planners manipulate the input of citizens to create the desired data to justify their Sustainable Development plans.

Note: Henry Lamb is no longer alive. He was one of the earliest opponents of Agenda 21 and a mentor to Tom DeWeese of the American Policy Center.

Equality Is Not Enough

The Left is forever preaching the religion of social equity. Social equity is the need by society to give everyone everything they need to be equally successful in any given area. This in a perfect world would create equal outcome to every individual in society no matter the endeavor chosen.

In contrast equality provides everyone equal opportunity under law. It is then the individual’s responsibility to make of themselves what they will.

Today the liberals’ expound endlessly on the importance of providing every “victim of our unfair society” the opportunity to achieve an equal outcome through government sponsored programs. Unfortunately they rarely admit the only folks who are being showered with extra support are minorities and, since there is no free lunch, whoever is paying for this (those who are not minorities) become victim number one in this supposedly great equitable plan to save society. In reality equity is just another way to redistribute wealth.

Further, with all the propping up an equal outcome strategy requires a percentage of the “victims of our unfair society” being quota’d into colleges will graduate without a true competency in their chosen field. This creates victim number 2 and 3; the graduate who is woefully unprepared for the real world and anyone who is relying on the graduate to be competent.

Victim number 4 is the student attempting to get into specific colleges or specific schools within a specific college only to find the extra “points” minority students were given, prevents the non minority student from the acceptance they should have earned.

The fifth and final victim of social equity is government itself. The Constitution never intended for our government to become so embroiled with the individual that it was responsible for the happiness and success of every citizen. To burden the government with this responsibility is to destroy the very foundation on which our government was built; that of personal responsibility for our own actions.

Other than that there is nothing wrong or unfair about social equity/redistribution of wealth.

As you read the article please think about the dis-ingenuousness of its analogies. For example, when they talk about the three boys on the boxes keep in mind, while it makes sense, where the problem lies is in who provides the extra boxes needed by some of the boys. Should it be the boys responsibility to find boxes, someone else’s responsibilities (friends, family, private charities, etc.) or should it be the responsibility of the government? Your answer to that question will decide whether you are a liberal or a conservative.
