Regionalism – The Blueprint for Your Serfdom

September 28, 2013 Michael Shaw Comments Off

By Michael Shaw, 9/28/2013 –

Did you know that some of your local elected representatives are enabling a shadow government to evolve? These people promote the reinvention of government through their support of, and appointments to, “regional” boards that act like soviet councils. These councils are funded to implement Agenda 21. Federal tax dollars fuel their appeal, but your city and county representatives do not have to go along.

The Dark Side of Sustainable Development and the Regional One Bay Area Plan

June 13, 2013 Heather Gass Comments Off

By Heather Gass, 6/13/2013 –

Over the past few years, I and many others in the San Francisco Bay Area have been fighting against a plan that seeks to socially re-engineer our lives: the One Bay Area Plan. Over the next 25 to 30 years it will transform the lives of over 9 million people in 9 counties by creating high density stack-and-pack housing next to mass transit, all in the name of saving the planet by reducing GHGs (Green House Gases). Never mind that global warming has already been debunked by thousands of scientists not on the UN’s payroll. The sky is not falling, but our rights are being systematically eroded.

A Time to Sue: Regionalism Challenged

June 5, 2013 Freedom Advocates Comments Off

By Freedom Advocates, 6/5/2013 – The plot to transform the San Francisco Bay Area is largely unknown by the residents living there and overwhelmingly opposed by those who do know. The global boiler plate program called One Bay Area (OBA) or Plan Bay Area will roll out across the nation on a grand scale. OBA involves more than $250,000,000,000 (over a quarter of a trillion dollars). […]

Regionalism at the Local Level Strengthens European Union “Top-Down” Authority

June 14, 2007 Michael Shaw Comments Off

6/14/2007 – England implements a path to merge with the European Union through the elimination of local county control. This process, called “regionalization” is being used all over the United States and in other countries as well. In England the origins of Regionalization can be traced to Fabian Socialists. It is no wonder the plan has made such an advance under the leadership of former Fabian Chairman, Tony Blair.

Political Regionalism and “Sustainable Development”

March 13, 2007 Michael Shaw Comments Off

By Michael Shaw, 3/13/2007 – "Regionalizing” water enables the abolition of private property (which is an objective of Sustainable Development policy). Throughout the country, schemes are arranged to accomplish this goal. The central coast of California provides an example of a typical "regional" maneuver.

How America Is Being Sovietized

November 5, 2005 Michael Shaw and Edward Hudgins Comments Off

By Michael Shaw and Edward Hudgins, October 5, 2005 –

An unrecognized threat to the liberty and prosperity of each American has spread throughout the country, taking root in every state and county. Its current and most serious manifestation was fashioned by an international organization with the explicit goal of replacing the autonomy of individuals over their own land with a collectivist control system that ultimately destroys the natural rights of each citizen. Its weapons for limiting liberty include councils that are similar to the institution of “soviets” that were pioneered by the communists who once controlled Russia. And yet most Americans see it as a well-meaning attempt to create a cleaner, better planet.

What is a Soviet?

June 29, 2005 Michael Shaw Comments Off

By Michael Shaw, 6/29/2005 –

People know that a soviet system of government is a dismal failure. A failure so bad, in fact, that it’s inconceivable to consider that soviet-style “change agents” might actually be Americans living and working in our own neighborhoods. Even worse, would be to discover that your smiling political leaders might also be “agents of change.”
