This article by Mark Steyn, Obama goes from dazzle to drone, reminds me of something I’ve written before, about how freedom is dependent on the ability of the people to vote with their feet.  If you can’t leave your government, you aren’t free.  

Mark points out some claims by the global statists.  From Herman van Rompuy, the President of the EU nation gives us this gem: 

“2009 is the first year of global governance.”

The attempts by some to use the human-caused global warming as an excuse to impose a statist world order on all of society also come to mind. 

Likewise, Congress tries to use global tax schemes like loony Peter DeFazio’s proposed tax on investment trades to gain money, power and control over private businesses world wide.  Nancy Pelosi claims: 

 Well, let’s see, the fact is, what we are talking about is a global transaction [tax], something that we would do in conjunction with other G nations, whether it is G8, G20, whatever the current G number is. Because it is really a source of revenue that has really minimal impact on the transaction, but a tremendous impact on helping us meet our needs.

Global government is evil.  It doesn’t matter what form it takes, or what degree it takes.  As long as the citizens have the ability to leave a state, the state has to respect the desires of the citizens.  If the state has laws the citizens don’t like, the state will lose its citizens as citizens move to other states that don’t have that law.  At least in theory.  In reality some Game Theory comes into play, as well as practical issues of pulling up roots and moving. 

Like, over the long run I don’t expect all of the United States to have homosexual marriage.  People who don’t like having homosexual marriage in their state are free to move to another state.  The citizens’ threat to leave, to vote with their feet, keeps states from putting legislation into place that causes more people to leave than it attracts.  When people leave, that state and its politicians tend to lose power.  The more citizens in a state, the more power the politicians tend to have. The politicians want power, so they tend to create laws that attract more citizens than push citizens away. 

When a state has the ability to prevent citizens from leaving, the citizens are slaves of the state. The state government has the ability to create pretty much any set of laws it wishes, amending the state’s written constitution if necessary, amending in ways that are “helping us meet our needs” for slavery.   Laws that are made in a context where the governed are not free to leave, are not laws at all.  The are the orders of masters to slaves. 

Global laws are a form a slavery.  If the citizens of the world are unable to escape from undesired laws and live in states that don’t have those laws, the citizens are slaves of the global government.  

If there is ever a global law and government that attempts to put laws onto all peoples of the world, the right thing to do is go to war and do what is necessary to destroy that government. Freedom, your freedom, depends on it. 

Those people, the Peter DeFazios, Nancy Pelosis and Herman van Rompuys of the world, are today’s Hitlers.  Do not waste time or effort treating them kindly.  They have attempted and are attempting to become your owners.  They believe it is right that you should be their property, not free people.  

Any person why tries to force or convince you to live under any kind of global law is your enemy.

Stumble it!
