How can I work by the water in Central America?

Once upon a time America was a mirror of Ron Paul Vision......Good times : Take a look :?

• Once upon a time, America was almost a mirror of Ron Paul’s vision: There were No Infringements on States Rights, No Gun Laws, No Department of Education, No HUD, No Paper Fiat Money, No Federal Reserve Banking System, No IRS, Little to No Illegal Immigration, No TSA, No Welfare State, No Unlawful Searches and Seizures, No Wars for Profit or Empire, No Standing Army, No State Police, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. Of course you know all this if you have ever read anything written by George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, or Ron Paul. Our government was renowned throughout the world for how little it was doing – and with almost no money at all. We were debt free. We were a shining beacon on a mountaintop. And we were beginning to disturb some old European money and banking interests. What if this American experiment could spread throughout the rest of the world? Certainly the remaining monarchies of Europe had reason for concern. You may think me Irrationally Exuberant, but I am not – I am well aware of the Blood, Sweat and Tears, that it will cost Us to restore Limited Constitutional Government to all the States of the Union – Yet through the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will triumph in that Day’s Transaction. [with apologies to Abigail Adams and Blood Sweat and Tears – but Not Alan Greenspan] The ink was still wet on the Constitution when the first acts of sedition were being undertaken; and those first few offenses were setting the stage for the major insults of the mid-1800s, yet, the whole world was marveling at the level of individual liberty that had been achieved in America. It is safe to say her Constitution was being observed a little more perfectly than it is today. America was not perfect, but she was being governed more in line with informed consent than by fiat, sophistry, subterfuge or violence. She was already the freest place mankind had ever known with the very brief exception of the nation of Israel under some of the Judges – before they got the "brilliant" idea to demand a king so they could be like all the other nations. Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, – That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. – The Declaration of Independence, 1776 Once again with feeling: "…Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes..." Add to that, that governments should not be changed through fraud, fear or mistake. Regardless of how we got to this place where our State and Federal Governments are waging war against our Constitutions and attempting to destroy the last vestiges of free government and individual God-given rights, the way back will always be the same: Fully Reinstate the Founding Principles – First in our own hearts and minds, and then in all of our governments. Our Weapon of Choice: Education, Education, Education On our way back we must not throw out the baby with the bath water – but at the same time we must be adamant about the fact that all governments must be brought all the way under the law. There must be no exceptions. Before we decide to throw off government we must do all we can to restore and preserve the fabric of lawful government that remains within the written laws of the United States made pursuant to the Constitution. To accomplish this we will need more people in office who know and revere the Founding Principles, and more citizen sovereigns with the requisite knowledge and will to police their own government servants. No constitution or set of governing principles will suffice if we wish to remain ignorant, wicked and lazy. "An ignorant people are easily betrayed, and a wicked people can never be ruled by the mild influence of their own laws." – Arthur J. Stansbury Now I suppose that a baby doctor knows how to separate the baby from the bath water better than anyone. And certainly a flight surgeon will know just where to make all the right cuts. One of Ron Paul’s most important assets as president will be his comprehensive understanding of economics and how it relates to lawful money, Banking and Taxation. While it is obvious to most people that their government should not arbitrarily rob, kill or imprison them, it is the science of economics that gives us the forensic tools we need to measure the performance of our servants with precision. "A science of economics must be developed before a science of politics can be logically formulated. Essentially, economics is the science of determining whether the interests of human beings are harmonious or antagonistic. This must be known before a science of politics can be formulated to determine the proper functions of government. Immediately following the development of a science of economics, and at the very beginning of the formulation of a science of politics, this all-important question must be answered: What is law? What ought it to be? What is its scope; its limits? Logically, at what point do the just powers of the legislator stop? I do not hesitate to answer: Law is the common force organized to act as an obstacle to injustice. In short, law is justice." ~ Frédéric Bastiat Have you heard Dr. Ron in the debates [not really debates at all this time around]? When Dr. No starts talking economics the rest of them instinctively know they need to change the subject. They are over their heads before they open their mouths. Can you imagine what it might look like if each candidate had to face Dr. Paul on his/her own and argue to a true conclusion? Obviously they would rather play footsie with each other than go toe to toe with the Doctor. As his presidency gets closer and closer there will be those in certain financial businesses who may have some trouble sleeping as they contemplate the impact of "lawfulness" on their "industries." Bankers should not be allowed to sleep. They have had a license to fleece for generations. It should worry them sick that their friends and relatives might fully comprehend the insidious nature of their craft. Ask any banker to explain the morality and ethics of being able to inflate the money supply surreptitiously for the benefit of limited or private interests – or as a covert method of taxation. They get all upset when you try to print your own money, don’t they? You go into a gas station to pay for a fill-up and some clerk swipes a special pen across the government’s counterfeit bill to make sure you are playing the game by their rules [just for fun offer to lend the clerk your own special pen]. There may be no way to avoid a crash landing for this corrupted economy. But if we have anyone ignorant of economics in the White House we run the risk of another New Deal from which we may never recover. FDR knew better – but I don’t know about his political heirs in both major parties. None of them seem to repudiate socialism in toto – and they all seem to lust after the fictional version of FDR. Listen to the candidates when they talk about doing ANYTHING they promise. Then simply ask how they are going to pay for it. Once elected, they don’t get all that OPM just by asking for it. They take it by fraud and by force. They appropriate your money for their schemes. This may seem elementary. But millions of people still believe in them and appear to vote for them. And if promises don’t work they can always solicit the coveted Diebold Endorsement. The period between the Declaration and the Constitution taught us many painful lessons regarding the necessity of sound money and transparent, honest banking. The Continental Dollar was a disaster. Not only did it precipitate hyperinflation, being based ultimately on nothing of substance, but it drove hard money away. Realize sound money only moves it does not vanish. It is smart enough to know where it will be properly respected. In the first few months of the Paul Administration the smart money [gold and silver] will once again be drawn toward the States of the Union just as surely as it has been chased away by the fraudulent, fiat Federal Reserve Note. Paper Money IS War Money The British printed counterfeit Continentals attempting to undermine the efforts of the American Patriots. This worked like a tax on the Revolution being levied by our enemies. In a sense the Revolution was an economic race as well as an armed conflict. Today, our own government servants in collusion with the Fed are making economic war against We The People. Fiat money is a cancer that has been metastasizing to all of the major economies of the world. Electronic fiat money accelerates this disease and its effects. Compound the problem with fractional reserve banking and you have the perfect recipe for national and international financial ruin. Dr. Ron Paul understands. He has been the watchman on the wall for several decades patiently repeating the warning: "GO BACK – YOU ARE GOING THE WRONG WAY!" The Founders and Framers of our Constitution had left clear principles that were being ignored, forgotten, or deliberately set aside. Dr. No has been watching carefully, making astute observations, speaking his mind and voting his conscience. He is uniquely qualified to be our next President because he the only candidate that takes his oath to heart – and the only one with a working grasp of economics. Historian George Bancroft, writing in the late 1800s in his "Plea for the Constitution, Wounded in the House of its Guardians," was making the same case: I have written because I am persuaded that a firm and right establishment of the true relations of money to labor cannot be secure in a republic except by cultivating the mind of its people, and diffusing a knowledge of the truth through all its members. The honest illusions of many men must be dispelled; and their minds, ransomed from error, will discern the truth. Paper money is a corruption of the blood. Or paper money is the dry rot, which silently and unseen consumes the beams and joists which support the house and its floors. I am pleading the cause of industry, the cause of labor, the cause of the poor; and yet as I do not believe that the interests of the various classes of society necessarily clash with each other, I may hope that I am pleading for the welfare of society, for the rights and duties of all who in the many diversities of honorable occupation contribute to the completeness of a nation. What I have written is the fruit of many hours, employed in examining the laws of our period of colonial life, as well as in the study of our own constitution and of the corresponding history and affairs of many lands. I may utter these last words of admonition as assurances of that love of country, of liberty, and of truth that has been the rule of my life, and still glows in a heart which must so soon cease to beat [emphasis added]. In a battle against cancer it may be very important to have a biopsy. The doctor notices a lesion or a tumor and advises that certain tests be performed. Depending on the results of the tests, decisions will be made that could have grave consequences. I always say, if anyone ever asks which you would prefer, a biopsy, or an autopsy, go for the biopsy. America is at a crossroads. We can make believe everything will be all right [skip the biopsy] or we start learning how to heal the damage – before it’s too late. I would love to think there were a million Ron Pauls. Perhaps the next best thing is for our country to be taught liberty by the example of Doctor Ron as he points us in the direction of the Founders and Framers of our Constitution. To be like Dr. Paul we must expose ourselves to the same resources and discipline that produced a Ron Paul. Ron Paul’s model can be replicated: Govern lawfully and show everyone where you learned how to do it. Dr. Paul has been working this formula for more than 30 years in government service. Always be ready with a well-informed response – and prepared to cite authorities that will inspire and enhance the education of your students as well as your adversaries. The writings of the Founders and Framers of the Constitution are fabulous resources for anyone who wants to excel in any profession or calling. How much more are they a wellspring for those of us who yearn to breathe free! You may have noticed that the other candidates refer to the Founders and Framers occasionally, but almost always in a symbolic way. For them, substance and context must be avoided at all cost. This could be our last chance to revive American values and principles and avoid the post-mortem examination that has been the lot of empires. There have always been warning signs and those who were sounding the alarm. We were never meant to be an empire – only a constitutional republic – a government of laws and not of men. Could it be Providence has determined our republic will be reborn and returned to us and our posterity by way of the gentle hands of a self-effacing country baby doctor? That would certainly confound the enemies of liberty – almost as much as they were confounded in 1781. The Doctor will see you now. And after a comprehensive examination he will expect you to follow his recommendations if you want to regain your full health. Get well soon America! Vote for Doctor Ron Paul!
