Private Property Rights are the foundation of our nation and our state. The concept of private property ownership is significant both historically and in the present day. Under everything lies the land. The concept of private property rights is under assault by Federal government agencies, NGO's like ICLEI, and by organizations like the Center for Biological Diversity, Sierra Club and many more well funded law suite factories. In many cases the Federal government is funding the law suites brought against it by the organizations bringing suit.
This initiative predates the 1992 United Nations Rio de Janeiro Conference on Climate Change, when then President George HW Bush advocated for US Citizens to pledge allegiance to a government body other than the United States; and signed an Executive Order 12852 to that affect. Every President since GHWB has reiterated the same position.
Our rights do not come from men or from the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. They arise from Natures Law and Nature's God and as such truly are self-evident. Neither can our rights be taken from us, except by force or apathy.
Meeting legitimate needs by illegitimate means -where the end justifies the means- is immoral and has lead to the impending collapse of our moral foundation as a God blessed and ordained, prosperous nation. Our constitutional republic depends on individuals who are willing to leave their personal business for a short time, to serve their neighbors with carefully crafted legislation that anticipates abuse by growing government and is designed to curb the growth of government for government's sake.
We are at the moment of transformation for our State and our Nation, and I believe that good men and women can restore the exceptional performance, prosperity and growth that we once lead the world with. But, this work starts at home, not in Washington DC.
