Here's something you may not have heard of yet:
A one trillion dollar federal program to enable local governments to purchase vacant residential, commercial, and industrial properties from banks and demolish them.  Why?

So that more green space can be created in cities.  They call this turning redfields (vacant bank-owned properties in the 'red') to greenfields (parks and open space).

In this fantasy world of more and more federal money created out of thin air, underperforming property held in private ownership will be converted to publicly held open space.  Your community, which now can't keep your existing parks watered and maintained, will acquire bank-owned land.  In this sort of perfect UN Agenda 21 spin, all of the people in smartgrowth buildings downtown need a place to play.  It has to be a public place because government can't observe you when you're in your backyard.  In another 'rescue' of banks and as a part of UN Agenda 21's war on private property, existing buildings will be demolished and private land taken off of the property tax rolls.  Demolition of buildings (how's that for a greenhouse gas/carbon generating/landfill glutting solution) and building parks will 'create jobs' in this scenario.

Let's say it again: ONE TRILLION DOLLARS of federal money is proposed for this 'land-based approach to solving America's economic crisis.'  That quote is from the Urban Land Institute's January/February 2010 article From Vacant Properties to Green Space.  It covers the 'story' that City Parks Alliance, of Washington, DC is developing a federal funding strategy for this scheme.
 
Can we put this together? 
  • Step by step:  UN Agenda 21 sets the stage for high density development in cities. 
  • Redevelopment agencies subsidize development for smart growth.  Only some favored builders were in on the money train.
  • Banks were urged in the Clinton administration to loosen their loan criteria and let the money flow. 
  • Developers built more and more commercial and residential buildings, glutting the market
  • The economic collapse was engineered to cover the migration of business and production out of the US. 
  • The stock market crash was engineered to suck wealth out of the middle class and destabilize their retirement.
  • The TARP bail-out was pay-back for the banks and consolidated their power by allowing them to take over smaller banks.
  • The crashed economy is a staged event and encourages agitation for more social programs, along with the vilification of property ownership.  Those who own private property are 'greedy.' 
  • As people lose their homes to foreclosure and their steady employment vanishes, they will be more willing to live in government subsidized apartments in the center of cities.  There will be less people to object to loss of private property rights.  Proposals to stop the federal mortgage tax credit will be more easily accepted, thus threatening private home ownership.  The press obligingly writes articles about the miseries of home ownership and extolls the virtues of living in a condo (maintenance-free!) or apartment (move when you want!) next to the train tracks. 
  • Private car ownership will become unaffordable through high gasoline prices, high parking costs in  city centers, and vehicle miles traveled taxes, and wages can be lowered to reflect the 'savings.' 
  • The redfields to greenfields conversions in the suburbs allow cities to demolish buildings and close off services to those areas.  Redevelopment dollars, your property tax dollars, will be used for these projects.
  • Rural roads will not be paved, making rural property less valuable, banks will foreclose and local government will buy for pennies on the dollar.  Less and less land will be available for agriculture, for production, for small scale living.  Government-owned land will be managed by or given to non-profit land trusts in public private partnerships. 
  • Lands will be closed off to public use.  Rural areas closed.  Suburban areas closed.  Forest areas closed.  Rural roads closed.  Logging roads closed.  Camping areas closed.  State park areas closed. 
  • Restrictions on travel.  Personal identification required at all times.  Health records.  School records.  Communication records.  Email, Facebook, Global positioning mapping, Virtual Reality---all serve to narrow your world.
  • Regionalization of government will take the planning decisions away from local government and out of your control.  Rural councils, regional boards, neighborhood associations, condominum boards, residents' associations---all speak for you without your ability to stop them.  They all want the same thing.  Control, total information, and social engineering.  Think you'll be able to stop SmartMeters when you live in a 200 unit building owned by your local low income (government subsidized) housing developer?

    That was easy, wasn't it?  Most of this is in place right now. That's how you turn RED to GREEN in the UN Agenda 21 plan.

The more you know the harder it is to just condense UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development into a short paragraph.  Someone who came to one of our lectures recently said: "Just give it to me quickly, I'm busy."  Who isn't busy?  On the one hand we just want to say: Take my word for it,  and on the other hand there are the skeptics who think we've made it up since they didn't read it in the local paper or see it on FoxNewsCNNMSNBCCSPAN.

Everyone is being impacted by it, but since your government uses different names for all of the programs (it's alphabet soup), you don't recognize that there is a connection when you hear, for instance:

Your 10-year old child won't be automatically going to the middle school in your neighborhood but has to apply for admission.  S/he may end up across town where you'll never attend parent/teacher night, never become friends with other parents, and not volunteer in the classroom (and hear the lesson) because you can't make it home from your job in time.

Your business is being subjected to a Business Improvement Tax by your local government and you have to pay even though your customers now have to put money in the meters, pay huge parking tickets, and can go to the Mall with free parking.

You inherited a piece of land from your folks but now you find out that it's impossible to build anything on it because the County has an ordinance that won't allow you to install a septic system on your 40 acres.  And the Biotic Resource Corridor that it's in won't allow development anyway.  And besides you're in the 'viewshed' so bicyclists can look at your land as they ride a nearby trail, and a building would ruin that.

You don't believe that you're being 'forced' out of your private vehicle but then you notice that even though Libya produces only 2% of the world's oil your gasoline cost just jumped up 15% since Gaddafi started shouting.  You also have noticed that there's talk about a 'Vehicle Miles Traveled Tax' in your town council that would charge you for long commutes. You moved there to buy a house but the market has crashed and you're not going anywhere for a while.

You, of course, were an avid fan of the Smart Train idea and voted for the 1/4 cent sales tax hike in perpetuity, but now the train is a distant hope since they underestimated costs, and the money went to repair the tracks (for freight) and big pensions for staff.  All of those SMART Growth condos by the tracks are now going to hear freight train whistles and smell the fumes 6 feet away.

You're sick of being called an "Oil Addict" and can't understand why innovations for energy efficient vehicles have never been funded by your government.  Until now, when you can pay $40,000 for a compact that gets 35 miles to the gallon...

You came home from work and noticed that your energy company had installed a SMART METER without asking you, and now you've heard that they can shut it off remotely, monitor your use, reduce your allotment, and generally mess with you any time.

You've gone from saying you'd never bother to learn computers to checking your email every half hour, and your kids never look up from their I-whatever when you talk to them.  Their classrooms are so crammed with kids that even you think remote learning might be a good idea, and, hey, textbooks on-line should save money---they can update them, change them, change history with a click of the mouse---Great!

You just came back from a vacation in Mexico and noticed the retina recognition and fingerprint readers at every customs officer's station, and it made you nervous.  Of course they're not using them on everyone yet, but how long will it be?  You've also read that they have miniature drone spy hummingbirds that can fly 8 miles, in and out of windows, and record sound and video!  Who?  Your government.  What else do they have?  Do they know you're reading this?

You go to a neighborhood association meeting out of some sense of civic duty and see that they're electing officers to the association.  You'd like to nominate your neighbor but you can't because the by-laws say that any candidate has to be okayed by the board first.  You try to make a comment but you are boo'd by your 'neighbors' in bike helmets and spandex.  It's clear that they have a candidate who will be elected and claim to speak for the entire neighborhood.

Call it Smart Growth.  Call it Sustainable Development.  Call it Form Based Zoning.  Call it Capacity Building.  Call it Consensus Building.  Call it Green Building.  Call it Wildlands.  Call it Homelands.  Call it Outcome Based Education.  ETC.  Hey, it's not "What is Agenda 21", it's "WHAT ISN'T AGENDA 21"   It's not Republican, and it's not Democrat.  It's not Libertarian, and it's not Independent.  It's COMMUNITARIAN.

Satisfied?  Are we making this up?  Have you noticed?  So?  WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT?  Listen, no one is holding a gun to your head; you're not losing your job if you speak out.  Will you please go and talk to your neighbor, friend, co-worker, partner, coach, financial advisor, lawyer, clerk, you get the idea....  SPEAK UP.  SPEAK OUT.  STOP AGENDA 21 NOW.

We were just thinking about the Total Information Awareness Act (TIA) from the early 2000's and wondered what happened with all of those DARPA (Defense Dept) programs that sounded like something out of a bizarre 1984 fantasy or a Men in Black movie.  By the way, did you know that the Defense Department DOES hire Hollywood screenwriters to come up with scenarios for them?  Yep, they do.

Well, anyway, we wondered if TIA was REALLY dead since Congress said that they were not going to fund the surveillance of US citizens within our own borders.  You remember, don't you?  One of the programs was going to allow people to BET on the potential for war in different locales.  We're not making this up.  When Congress realized it wasn't a joke they quashed it. The logo for TIA is particularly creepy; it shows that eye on the pyramid that's on the back of the dollar bill beaming yellow light at the entire planet---the all seeing eyeball.   

We didn't do too much research, just took a look at Wikipedia. And found that some of those programs are still being funded.   Now, total information is vital to Agenda 21/Sustainable Development.  Really, it's all about information.  What you do, what you think, how to identify you, what you write, what you read, where you live, who you know, how you earn money and where you keep it, meetings you attend, conversations you have, your attitude, your hopes, your fears.  Facial recognition software.  Software that recognizes you even if you are completely covered from head to toe.  Remote surveillance with drones the size and shape of a hummingbird.  Audio surveillance.  Infiltration of groups.  Asset Based Community Development.  Community Oriented Policing.  Rails to Trails.  Community Block Grants. Redevelopment.  Neighborhood Stabilization.  SMART METERS.

A vital part of Agenda 21 is PREVENTIVE measures to stop crime (thought crime?) before it happens.  To actually intercede in communities and identify potential criminals and pay them a little visit BEFORE they commit a crime.  OK, you might think to yourself that you like the idea of stopping criminals before they commit a crime.  

What's a crime?  Who decides?  What is a crime against the community?  Who is a criminal?   What is terrorism?  Who is a terrorist?

Here's a program that is being launched in communities across the country:
Sign up for Citizen On Patrol (COP) to become an active partner in your local law enforcement's fight against crime. COP allows your law enforcement agency to send you important crime information and alerts that will allow you to act as another pair of eyes on the street.  (Kind of like the Chinese domestic spying during the Gang of Four era (1960's)---they used neighbors, like the Nazi's did---to spy on people on their block and report on their activities.)

UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development expands the definitions of criminality and terrorism.   Countries that used the Communitarian ideology to determine criminality are Russia, China, Franco's Spain, Mussolini's Italy, Hitler's Germany...do you see?  

Are you a liberal identified person?  Do you see the protection of the planet as something that you are willing to make sacrifices for?  Fine.  But have you thought about what those sacrifices will be?  Do you feel the stress of money going into 'higher, tighter, and righter hands' as George Bush 1st stated? That was furthered by Clinton, and then Bush, and now Obama.  All faces of the same Agenda. 

Part of Agenda 21 is to limit your choices, restrict your money, exhaust you with overwork and commitments, destabilize your personal environment, subvert your education and discourage critical thinking; the list goes on.

STOP AGENDA 21/SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT by educating yourself and talking about it.  Turn off the TV.  Make this your hobby, your avocation.  Have the courage to be a bit unpopular sometimes.  

Oppose Agenda 21 in Madison, Wisconsin; Stop Agenda 21 in St. Louis, MO; Fight Agenda 21 in Seattle, WA; Expose Sustainable Development in Camden, NJ; Say NO to Smart Meters in Santa Cruz, CA; Oppose Sustainable Development in Los Angeles, CA---Stand up.  Speak out.  We're with you.

OK, so forget about the health issues if you’re so sure it’s no problem.  But think about this:

Smart Meters can be remotely turned off. From the office. No need to come to your home.

Not worried about it? Why not? The way things are going everyone’s suspect these days. Acting a bit strange? Investigation needed. Maybe someone will want to shut your electricity and gas off in the middle of the night--

Paranoid? Nope. And how about this: The meter monitors the type of appliance or electronics you’re using, for how long, and where it is in your home. Privacy important to you? Don’t care?
Then think about this. Why does the gas/electric company need to know when you’re using your whatever? They say it’s because you’ll have fun monitoring your usages. But you don’t need them for that. No.  YOU know when you're using your whatever.  THEY don't.

New appliances are about to be rolled out in 2012 that have chips in them that will communicate with your meter.  They will require special sockets---installation necessary if you want a new appliance.  No new fridge without a smart meter.

They will sell the information to manufacturers. They will share the information with law enforcement. They will remotely shut you down if they wish.  They will monitor your usage, charge you for what they perceive as 'over usage' and limit your access to energy.  They can selectively regulate usage.  They may be able to monitor other activity as yet undefined.  We don't know all the reasons why they are spending so much money to replace your meter.  Speculation runs across the spectrum. The power company has said that you won't be able to get power without a smart meter.  Why is this such a vital part of their program?

And that’s without any discussion about health. Get with it. Don’t be a chump.  REFUSE SMART METERS. 

It’s another program brought to you by UN Agenda 21.
