A Worldwide Tax? Not so many weeks ago, there was talk at the UN of a worldwide tax for something or other. We laughed it off. The UN is so puffed-up with it’s own self-importance nothing much surprises us coming from that crowd of international scalawags.Now our old friend (Well, he SAYS he’s our Old Friend!) Jacques Chirac, of France, is proposing much the same thing. This time it is to alleviate the Aids situation in Africa. Ostensibly.Look, “Ole Jack” is so far over the top he is verging on the “pitiful”. His ambition to become the President of the United States of Europe is fogging what little brain he has left. He spews forth these idyllic hallucinations as a matter of course these days. Ole Jack needs help. Serious help. His inferiority complex, and that of his nation, France, is getting out of hand… again.The socialism of Europe is not going to fly in America, as the Democratic Party is learning… much to their chagrin. The Southern States will not allow it. The northern states will most likely slip away, at some point in the future, into the cesspool of socialism such as that of Jacques Chirac and the Old Europe. So, when Chirac, or the UN, begins talking about a worldwide tax, we Southerners laugh. I mean… a “body shaking” belly laugh. The ridiculous proposal is, in fact laughable, but it is also a façade for danger. The danger lurking behind it is encroaching Socialism and One World Government. We Southerners are not “Globalists”. Even today we want ”to be left alone”. We are not interested in becoming a part of any “One World Government”. We will be on the front lines in the fight to stop such proposals as a worldwide tax, proposed by Mr. Chirac, or the push for Global Government.It is always good to remember that Thomas Jefferson said: “The price of Freedom is eternal vigilance.” These days we must watch even those who call themselves “our friends”.

For not being a globalist, you sure do defend enough of them, Bush, Limbaugh, shoot ANYONE including Bill Clinton who supports free trade is a globalist. The whole concept of turning the "Americas" into a trading block like the E.U. scares me. Democrats use to be isolationists, that concept is good for more than just our nation, it is good for our workers both union and non union, it is good for our textile industry (Wich is fleeing your neck of the woods). It was good for Northern industry as well but you see sir they have you and me split over B.S. (What a woman and her doctor discuss, Christmas trees and nativity scenes on public ground, who can and who can't get married) issues so they can divide and conquer. You call Dems socialists, not even close maybe a few extrimists, I call you guys facists wich I'm sure for you is not true but you have extreme right wingers on the fringe. Anyone who puts corporate powers over the right of individuals. I say we take our country back on the true Family based initiatives (employment, wages, civil rights, securing our borders) and then as a nation, once our future is secure we can debate on social values but right now our whole standard of living is under attack.
