How to Steal the Republic - Legally

How to Steal the Republic - Legally!

Matt Savinar, the young California lawyer turned oil shortage activist, has written a phenomenal piece, the implications of which are just now sinking in to my thinking. What Savinar has done is make a list of the rights U.S. citizens can be deprived of with no action from Congress should oil prices, terror attack on energy infrastructure, or depletion threaten the American economy. Here's the short list:

"•10995: Right to seize all communications media in the United States.


•10997: Right to seize all electric power, fuels and minerals, both public and private.


•10999: Right to seize all means of transportation, including personal vehicles of any kind and total control of highways, seaports and waterways.


•11000: Right to seize any and all American people and divide up families in order to create work forces to be transferred to any place the government. sees fit.


•11001: Right to seize all health, education and welfare facilities, both public and private.


•11002: Right to force registration of all men, women and children in the United States.


•11003: Right to seize all air space, airports and aircraft.


•11004: Right to seize all housing and finance authorities in order to establish “Relocation Designated Areas” and to force abandonment of areas classified as “unsafe.”


•11005: Right to seize all railroads, inland waterways, and storage facilities, both public and private.


•11921: Authorizes plans to establish government control of wages and salaries, credit and the flow of money in US financial institutions.


In other words, severe drop in the world's oil production = massive economic meltdown = Germany 1939-1940 here in America 2004-2005.


And it would be legal. No input by Congress. No review by the Supreme Court. No protesting in the streets. No calling into the talk shows. No posting on message boards. No running to Canada.


Nothing."

This doesn't even get to the impacts of individual state declarations and pronouncements of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
