This could END western society as we know it - [Link]Some people are trying to label the film pro-eugenics in a push to get it cancelled ... the ironic thing is that a birth collapse would necessitate euthanising the older population, so could well lead to an eugenics led society
What Can Be Unburdened By What Has BeenIs it possible to make sense of this phrase? ... Surely there is some sequence one can say the words with different stresses and pauses and get it to make sense?
The treachery of one of the country's leading nobles, the Duke of Hamilton, was instrumental in what happened next. Hamilton, who had been a virulent anti-unionist, suddenly switched sides after secretly being bribed by the English. His fellow anti-unionists walked out in protest, and a decision was voted through to allow the Queen to appoint the Scottish commissioners who were to meet with the English and discuss union.
Hamilton's move had a major impact - it effectively meant there would not be hard bargaining on Scotland's behalf, but that Anne was guaranteed the deal she wanted, with the interests of Scots well down the list of priorities.
There was, however, still a final hurdle - the decision to unite the two countries still had to get through the Scottish parliament. The English again used bribery, promising Scots jobs in the new government and handsome pensions if they supported union. It was an offer many felt they could not refuse.
Slowly but surely, the commissioners thrashed out a deal and put a treaty together. It was decided that the newly merged kingdoms would be called Great Britain, and that there would be a single, Hanoverian, Protestant sovereign.
There would be one flag, one currency and free trade would be allowed under a single set of customs regulations.There would, of course, also be a single parliament. It was eventually decided that Scotland should have 45 MPs and England 513 MPs in the new House of Commons. In the Lords, Scotland would have 16 seats and England 196. In other words, the Scots were so few in number as to be virtually unnoticeable.
One of the most important provisions, however, was the Equivalent - the sum of money paid by England to Scotland as compensation for Scots taking a share of the £14 million English national debt.The cash, which was also used to compensate investors in the Darien scheme, was another bribe, because much of the money, which came to nearly £400,000 in total, went into the pockets of those Scots with the power to influence, or vote directly on, the new union.
When the terms of the deal became known, ordinary Scots were incandescent with rage. There were riots in Glasgow and Edinburgh. In the Estates, however, the mood was very different. The anti unionists realised that they were losing the argument. Too much English money was changing hands, and too many plum jobs in the new Great Britain administration were being offered.
The crunch came on 16 January 1707, when the Estates finally passed the act consenting to the Articles of Union. The vote was decisive: 110 members in favour, only 67 against. Scotland's independence had been voted into the history books.
.. just for note if the elites are thinking that creating Homeland absolves them of the US national debt , they can probably legally abolish the country, the constitution, maybe even the individual states, but there's no running away from the debtCan you elaborate a bit more on "Homeland"? Are you referring to The Department of Homeland security? Are the elites you are referring to the major share holders of the US member banks and likely the Federal Reserve central bank (elites like Jamie Diamond of JPMorgan Chase that will be the winners in this planned bank consolidation)?
"The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) began officially operating at the NAC[Nebraska Avenue Complex] on January 27, 2003"... all they have to do is codify and federalize laws and they apply across the U.S. i.e. They can claim federal government "jurisdiction" of all states based on that D.C. District of Columbia location.
Now escaping the National Debt is pretty much irrelevant I would think for these folks?I am going to go on a bit more...They are part of the bureaucracy...Recall that is why they are the "chosen ones"...Here is some more of their work [Link]
The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, otherwise known as the CISG, is an international treaty that has been ratified by 81 countries, including the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The purpose of the CISG is to provide a uniform body of international sales law. In other words, the CISG is comparable to an international version of Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) which has been adopted by statute in every state but Louisiana. The CISG automatically applies to any contract for the sale of goods between parties whose principal places of business are in different CISG countries.
Are You REAL ID Ready?

Are You REAL ID Ready?I believe it is that yellow circle with a white star on it that is appearing on drivers licenses in the US. Am I ready? Sure I am. Track everything down to when you are allowed to live eventually. What a bunch of control freaks!
Is there such a thing as a "peaceful" revolution?
History suggest the answer is no.
~
Of course the fella has "baggage" and he ain't no saint.
Are you ready for a civil war?
Seems one is on the horizon.
~
I don't want it, but it seems inevitable. Like a cancer upon the land.
So many live wondering others intent but truly who is growing plants for the future?
Who cares about the future?
~
If you care
please raise your hand?
If you raised your hand can you vote for a Democrat?
~
If you say yes to that, then let me tell you
the DNC dies first....
then the RNC follows...
~
DC is toast.
Who needs another name in the game...
When the civil war commences what matters is local currency....
~
do you want to bet on it?
