Forum Post: This is a message from Unanimous

Posted 13 years ago on Nov. 21, 2011, 11:53 a.m. EST by unanimous (38)
This content is user submitted and not an official statement

All United States Citizens realize there is something really wrong with our country but unlike the OWS movement we the true Patriots all are unanimous on core beliefs,which I know will offend a lot of the globalist and leftist and right but this is about the USA as a whole.

Unanimous demands are:

1 bring home the troops

2 secure our borders (unlike what OWS wants they want no borders)

3 deport all illegal immigrants (unlike what OWS wants they want amnesty for illegals)

4 we approve of gun ownership (unlike OWS that wants guns taken away from citizens)

5 2 term limits on all politicains,no politician can hold any elected position for more than 2 terms

6 if any politician is caught taking money from a lobbiest or any person or group to buy their vote they get tried for treason and if found guilty they are executed

7 bring current and former politicians up on wars crimes that have beend committed and crimes against humanity world wide

8 no future trading on wall street

9 english is the language of the land no more catering to non speaking english groups under the political correctness umbrella

10 no prescription can be sold for more than double of actual cost of making it

11 no more aid to any country no exceptions

12 get rid of TSA,DHS,FEMA

13 reform main stream media and put guidelines in that if they do not tell the truth and have proof they are they will lose their credentials and will not be able to air.

14 college tuition reform,make a set tuition for any college no matter how great one might think it is

15 no more political parties

16 we do not have any problem with gays getting married

more to come but I will end with this

"WE DO NOT FORGIVE,,,,WE DO NOT FORGET,,,WE WILL NOT RE-ELECT"

Pretty much your entire list speaks to a mindset that still believes we can somehow be a part of the world yet be apart from it. This is no longer possible on our planet. We are too many and the world is a small place. There MUST be a paradigm shift if the human race is to survive and our children and grandchildren and great grandchildren are to have any semblance of a planet left to live on.

You draw your line and stand over there in the old paradigm. I'll be on this side moving ahead. Thank you.

Its ok this is only for the Unanimous people and we understand that the OWS and Anonymous are not us an do live in some delusional vision that everything will be better with no borders and no guns and to give the 1 percent more power. We at Unanimous live in the real world

  1. secure our borders (unlike what OWS wants they want no borders)

Exactly how do you propose to do this? For years we have had free border crossings with Canada, we've moved product both into and out of there, we have tourism both to and from Canada, our land access to Alaska is via Canada. Mexico has been different yet there still similarities.

  1. deport all illegal immigrants (unlike what OWS wants they want amnesty for illegals)

We have a great number of 'illegals' who were brought here as children/infants, they are largely unaware that they are 'illegals'. They are in essence American citizens. Where, in this philosophy is there room for them?

  1. we approve of gun ownership (unlike OWS that wants guns taken away from citizens)

There is 'gun ownership' and there is gun ownership. The guy with the .30-.30 is fine, the guy with the full auto might be a problem. Handguns, which for the most part is the larger issue, can be of the home protection variety or they can be of another variety all together. I have yet to see anything about guns in general mentioned by OWS with the exception of 'user submission' postings.

  1. if any politician is caught taking money from a lobbiest or any person or group to buy their vote they get tried for treason and if found guilty they are executed

Here there is a specification of money, lobbyists usually don't offer cash, there are campaign funds, donations to pet programs, trips, tickets to events just to name a few items that are offered for favorable legislative actions for the lobbyist's clients. Execution is a harsh sentence for bribery and the acceptance there of, which is not an actual act of treason, no matter what individuals think.

  1. no more aid to any country no exceptions

Foreign aid. Foreign aid is building good relations with other nations, nations which we may at some point in the future desire to work with or to trade with...isolationism is not an answer to any of our issues.

  1. get rid of TSA,DHS,FEMA

TSA would no longer exist without the DHS, so including it is rather redundant. FEMA on the other hand is a national program to aid portions of our nation that have experienced a disaster of large proportions. Rather than 'getting rid' of it, perhaps more closely defining it's mission would be a better choice.

  1. no more political parties While a nice idea, most likely not practical. People have always identified with one or another group, even when that group only minimally meets their ideas and thought processes. What would you suggest to replace them?

  2. reform main stream media and put guidelines in that if they do not tell the truth and have proof they are they will lose their credentials and will not be able to air.

How about we divide the segments of news broadcasting, to actual news and then distinguish commentary from it? We could require all news broadcasts to present both sides of each 'story' leaving the opinions of the viewers to form themselves based on full disclosure.

I agree with AuditElmerFudd, you argue for both expansion and curtailment with absolutes for both sides of the argument.

I argue reality ,as for the illegal kids you all like to throw out everytime someone brings up the illegal immigrants, it is not my problem that their mother and father tried to have an anchor baby to keep themselves here,,we could offer the kid instant citizen ship but mo and dad need to go or they could take their kid and at anytime the kid could come back. As for guns i have a right to a bazooka if I want who are you people to decide what kind of weapon I can have,,,,,,Fema is just another police state tool and if you can not see it I feel sorrry for you ,,,,,,How to secure the borders you ask well if we have all our troops home they would most likely do a great job at it,,,,as for lobbyist and their give away money,trips,donations are alll the same if it influeneces their vote and it can be proven then it is treason and they should be put to death,,,,,,,,stop hating USA we are still 1 and still strong and we will not go for open borders trust me

The whole English language thing and the deport all illegal immigrants make you seem like a white supremacy group or similar, I like most of it but it's very dictatorship like.......how about just create some moral laws.......and...execute ?..tried for treason?.....why not torture instead......execute is no suffering...lol...c'mon man this list is kindof insane....and....do away with groups like FEMA?.......sure but......why not eliminate groups like the FDA, the EPA,. and the NOAA, considering they are created by and for the corporations to protect the corporations responsible for poisoning and tainting the food and environment so they don't get criminally charged......duh......BP would have definitely gone under with criminal charges for that oil gusher hadn't they had legal protection from the FDA....which was testing the seafood to for safe consumption, they lied.... the EPA, who hid the truth to protect them from charges, and the NOAA, for ignoring shit like this and lying about it to protect them......c'mon guys get with it .....whoever controls the flow of money, and the food supply, has their thumb up your ass..........

who says we are white,black,or hispanic we are Unanimous ,we speak the truth and we agree on ending many of the thing you mentioned as stated that is just the beginning of the demands and more to come. As for english being spoke it is meant for in the work place and during town meeting so everyomne can communicate. If I went to a different country do you think they would changes all signs to my language just because I showed up,come be realistic english should be a mandatory spoken language in the USA

[-] 1 points by KnaveDave (357) 13 years ago

It would serve none of us any good to have multiple official languages. So, yes, all citizens need to learn English, and the government and businesses should expect to conduct business in English. The country will be more fractured if people all conduct business in the native language they bring to this country. That will actually create more tension and racism because we will not even understand each other in order to communicate. Most immigrants for the past few centuries have had no issue with learning English.

I'm an OWSer, and I don't have too many problems with your list. Unlike you, I have no problem with immigrants--illegal or otherwise--because for the most part, they're doing the jobs that lazy white Americans simply won't do (or, more accurately, won't do for now--I guarantee you that five or ten years from now, plenty of white Americans will be MORE THAN HAPPY to pick lettuce). I also don't have a problem with people speaking languages other than English. How is someone speaking Spanish, or a sign printed in Spanish, affecting your life? Both of these things can probably be attributed to the fact that I've lived in NYC most of my life, and am completely used to being around people of different cultures, colors and races, but other than that, we probably have more in common than you think....

[-] 0 points by unanimous (38) 13 years ago

i grew up in the boston area my whole life and have been around many different groups to but for the most part people try to speak english while at work. As for work that white people won't do I think you meant to say Americans right or are you a racist,,anyways that whole argument is a dead one pay a fair wage and Americans will pick lettuce or do anything,,,example how illegals destroy us economy is a roofer made 19 an hou about 7 years ago now they make 9 because illegals brought the scale down and illegals send money home but live off of gov assistance and deplete its fund for the CITIZENS

[-] 1 points by Vooter (441) 13 years ago

It's not the illegal immigrants who have brought wages down--it's the decision by the United States 80 years ago to take the dollar off the gold standard that has doomed the workers in this country. You see, back in 1933, economist Maynard Keynes convinced FDR that the best way to get America back on its feet would be to decouple the dollar from the gold standard. That way, the United States could print and spend as much "money" as it wanted to, whenever it wanted to, wherever it wanted to, forever (including, for example, on armaments in WWII). Of course, SOMEONE would have to pay for all of the increasingly worthless Monopoly money that was being printed, and that someone would be YOU AND ME, through the backdoor tax of chronic inflation. The government knew that if inflation grew by 2% or 3% a year, most Americans wouldn't really notice, ESPECIALLY if wages inflated by roughly the same amount. And they were right! So the U.S. government happily continued to devalue the dollar (by printing trillions of non-gold-backed dollars) year after year after year, and this is exactly how the scam rolled on merrily for about 70 years, with Americans proudly proclaiming their "exceptionalism" and their cleverness at being able to figure out how to be so...ahem..."wealthy." But then...OOPS! Over the last decade or so, some TWO BILLION people around the globe have decided that they, too, want to get in on the capitalism party--that they, too, want to have McMansions, and jacuzzis, and BMWs. The only problem is, those people are willing to do the same work that we do--but for salaries that are only 10-20% of what we Americans are used to getting! UH-OH... Now, if you're a corporation, who you gonna pay? A fat, debt-ridden American who's demanding $80,000 a year, or a lean, hungry person from India or Malaysia who's willing to do the same job for $15,000? I'll let you answer that one... So before you go off on those "job-stealing" illegal immigrants, take a look at the real culprits: the U.S. government, the Federal Reserve, and the bankers, all of whom have spent most of the last century getting rich off of YOUR LABOR--and your increasingly worthless paycheck....

[-] 1 points by kingscrosssection (314) 13 years ago

If we had not taken the dollar off the gold standard then we would not have been able to trade with anyone else. Also we would have been limited to the amount of money we could actually have because gold is a nonrenewable resource. This would be disastrous considering the population size.

[-] 0 points by unanimous (38) 13 years ago

and I agree with most of what you said but sticking up for illegal immigrants is nonsense and if you do not see how they have effected this economy then i feel sorry for you. Nafta began the downfall of this country well was a crucial part ,trickle down didn't help much either, and the cute words like outsourcing jobs and undocumented workers were alll part of the elites way to make people not notice that the USA was being raped. The federal reserve is a joke and need to be anded every sane person agrees on that one, the gold standard will never happen again because there is not eneough gold and not only that gold is basically worthless in all reality, it is good for nothing that in critical for existence

[-] 1 points by KnaveDave (357) 13 years ago

Unanimous, while I don't agree with all he/she said, is right about illegal aliens bringing down wages and right about that being the ONLY reason there are jobs "Americans won't do." The fact is that some areas of the economy have had largely migrant work forces (and even largely ILLEGAL migrant work forces) for decades. As a result, wages in those areas have been stagnant for decades, too. American's are not willing to enter poverty rolls in order to have a job. Many illegal immigrants are, as it beats their alternatives. So, the wages become worse and worse over time compared to other areas of the economy that have not depended on migrant workers. Since it is "illegal," it should be stopped. That or be honest and make it legal for all non-citizens to come here and work (and then watch all other sectors of the economy drop to wages that will not support a family).

I agree with most of these points.. Some of them are even brilliant..

..but the "immediate deportation of illegals" and the stupid "English language" demands are just outrageous.

The only problem with illegal immigrants is that they take money from our 'common pot', theoretically anyway. This is really a fault in our totally broken socialistic programs.

The real motivation behind the attacks on (and prejudice against) illegal immigrants has been fueled by privatized prison lobbying, with the help of the media.

This thing was planned way before you think it was. It didn't just start 2 months ago with a simple protest at Zuccotti Park.

The occupywallst.com (and org) domain was registered on July 14, 2011. A couple of months before the supposed beginning of OWS in September.

Why is that? Because someone or some group planned this whole thing including the web site.

Very curious don't you think? And how quickly was this web site up? Bet it was up before you got to Zuccotti Park. Think you're being played?

Just another little known FACT that has nothing to do with this but just shows you how long ago some things are planned.

The domains - stopobama.com, noobama.com, presidentobama.com were all registered before Jul 15 2004 and are redirected to positive Obama links. They were registered by the same people but are hidden so we can't see who. I'm betting they're Democrats.

Obama wasn't even a senator in 2004, so how did they know? I betting it wasn't just a guess. Obama has been planned for a long time, people just like OWS.

[-] 1 points by Daennera (765) from Griffith, IN 13 years ago

First, futures trading is very very important to keep commodity prices stable and commodity producers (like farmers) with some sort of guarantee that they will be able to sell their goods. Futures are used to hedge against major price fluctuations. If commodities were both priced and sold in the same day, you can't imagine how wild the swings would get.

And you can't regulate how much someone sells their goods for. We're supposed to be working toward a more free market economy, remember? It doesn't matter one bit that the goods you speak of are pharmaceuticals or cars. We don't need any more socialism in our economy. The fact that we regulate utility companies is more than enough to make me vomit. Same for college tuition. Let the market decide the price. Once people stop being complete and utter morons and taking loans for a piece of paper that can't be sold, then you will see prices decrease.
