John Anthony<\/p>\n
Our Founders knew that property meant more than homes and land. Today\u2019s establishment elites know that too. But they are less concerned with protecting what is yours than making it theirs.<\/p>\n
From the government\u2019s extending the pandemic eviction moratoriums leaving landlords with little way to pay their mortgages, to expanding the navigable Waters of the United States (WOTUS) placing private properties at risk of devaluation, Americans\u2019 properties are under relentless waves of federal and state attacks.<\/p>\n
*Note that both of the mentioned actions were in <\/em>defiance<\/em><\/a> of SCOTUS <\/em>rulings<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n In December 2022 the SEC attempted to form an investment vehicle establishing Natural Asset Companies<\/a> handing those firms management authority over private land without the landowner\u2019s permission. In 2023, the rule was suspended in response to a massive rejection by states financial officers and citizens. Expect it to return with an even more innocuous and disarming title like, Community Stakeholder\u2019s Reinvestment Act.<\/p>\n As our homes and land are vulnerable to outside controls, so too our access to their internal value is at risk.<\/p>\n What differentiates 1st world nations from others is our ability to leverage our assets. As Hernando DeSoto says in his book, The Mystery of Capital,<\/p>\n \u201cproperty is not the house [or land] but an economic concept about the house embodied in a legal representation.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Legal ownership representations such as a deed or title enable you to borrow against your home to make value-enhancing renovations or to use the money to invest in a business that may generate more income.<\/p>\n President Biden\u2019s fast-tracked<\/a> central bank digital currency (CBDC) is a digital gatekeeper and tracking device that approves all financial transactions, and can disintermediate banking relations in the loan process. When your bank says \u201cyes,\u201d the government can say \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n More than the obvious property such as land and homes are targeted. We forget that our thoughts and ideas are also our property.<\/p>\n Article 1 Section 8 the Constitution authorized Congress to secure patents and copyrights.<\/p>\n \u201cTo promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries\u2026\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The Constitution\u2019s 1st Amendment protects free speech.<\/p>\n \u201cCongress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Yet professionals face legal threats, decertification<\/a>, and loss of licenses to practice for promoting ideas and writings that counter national narratives.<\/p>\n Civil asset forfeiture confiscates<\/a> personal wealth and belongings, and censorship that clips freedom of expression,<\/p>\n Justice Sanders of the Washington Supreme Court, said:<\/p>\n \u201cThe substantial value of property lies in its use. If the right of use be denied, the value of the property is annihilated and ownership is rendered a barren right.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Yet that right is use is constantly under attack in the name of protecting our health and welfare.<\/p>\n Section 24220, Advanced Impaired Driver Technology is buried inside the Inflation Reduction Act<\/a>. The law requires future autos to contain equipment that measures the blood alcohol concentration of the driver and if above the legal level, disable the vehicle. Fact checkers note this is not a \u201ckill switch<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n From Section 24220:<\/p>\n \u201cpassively monitor the performance of a driver of a motor vehicle to accurately identify whether that driver may be impaired and prevent or limit motor vehicle operation if impairment is detected.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Obviously the intent is to prevent drunk driver deaths. But will authorities have access to the switch, will drivers be automatically fined; where does the car stop? Will it pull off the road where you get a flat tire or a bent axle and weren\u2019t drunk at all? How many accidents or deaths will the vehicle cause as it is disabled?<\/p>\n The most valuable property we own is our own bodies. The pandemic response proved that to elite authoritarians humanity is a lab specimen for measuring and expanding the bounds of servience.<\/p>\n Mischaracterized PCR tests, cases that were not \u201ccases\u201d, and often unnecessary jabs were all rammed up the noses and in the arms of bewildered Americans. New vaccines with withering value, often leaving lasting organ damage were arrogantly mandated with little concern for human rights.<\/p>\n But now there is a move to globalize the access to our bodies.<\/p>\n
