North American Union, Myths, Facts, and Information.



Hopefully this video turns out. After watching it I was understandably upset and set about discovering as much information as I could as to the validity of it's claims. While I am a conspiracy theorist, I try not to be a ridiculous conspiracy theorist. To that end I offer two links with helpful information. The first is from the Seattle Times News Source here
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003713518_rumor19.html and was helpful because it offered not only the myths with some clarification, but also some of the reasons that the myths have caught hold. The second is the website for the SPP, or Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. The SPP seems to be where the belief of a North American Union comes from. While it is not what the video protrays it to be, it is still important to understand. I particularly suggest clicking on the fact sheet for the avian pandemic information. The idea of there being factors in place to handle a disease that hasn't struck yet, but that they are sure will strike (or one like it) unnerves me. Not because we shouldn't be prepared, but because it is one more terrifying thing for the people of our country to worry about. One more terrifying thing they have to rely on their government to handle. Make of it what you will.

The information on the microchip was significantly more disturbing. The first site
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6237364/ is from my dear old friend msnbc.com and made me more than a little sick to the stomach. I don't think I need to express why this is so very, very bad an idea. The second site
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20041013-4305.html is an opinion from another fellow who offers his opinion and also some background information.

Why is this not all over the news? The video might be more frightening than true, but it's premise, that people are kept unaware and scared by the government, is more real than fiction. And the idea that people willingly allow their families and themselves to be "tagged"...I don't have words. I suppose that while I thought Brave New World might happen someday, I didn't think it would be in my lifetime.

Bad idea. Very, very, very bad idea.
