The Constitution ~ What The Heck Does It Really Say Anyway? Part I

The strength of this country lies with the middle class. Like it or not, the middle class drives the economy, it elects the authorities that be, and without it, we would be a “third world” nation. When the middle class goes to sleep, becomes deceived, are led down the wrong path, the nation suffers. Today, my fellow countrymen, the middle class is asleep.

There is something nauseous and depraved about a government willing to send your children off to war and at the same time, is more than willing to cut benefits for those same warriors. And you sit still and do nothing.

Devising An Efficient Public-Transport System In South Africa

With '2010' every South African's chief concern, public transport is a key issue. In truth, it always has been, but an urgent need to revise subsidies between the different transport modes, is an important factor that has not yet been settled. Plans made during the last ten years have not yet reached fruition. If sufficient research has evaluated situations pragmatically, the government should now be able to make educated proposals. We must be able to host an important sport’s event (the soccer World Cup) by 2010, no question, but rushing an influx of tourists around major centres for a few short weeks does not compare to providing long-term systems that benefit all.

Eco-Fascists, Utopia, And Destroying The Modern World

The modern eco-fascist is the green's echo of the pagan fascisms of Hitlerite Germany or the Lenin-Stalinist Russian model. For the modern eco-fascist the pagan earth goddess cult is a program of intolerance designed to 'liberate' us from the evils of the modern world. For these fascists it is more important to have an agenda of utopian promise by destroying the 'decadent liberalism' of the modern world, than using common-sense and rationality to improve it. Lock-step, with arms swinging goes the modern eco-fascist…clutching their Al Gore bibles, looking to their Fuehrer for salvation.
