'The 15th annual re-creation of the Battle of Aiken kicked off
Friday with 3,000 school children slated to watch almost 1,000 Confederate and Union re-enactors portray the 1865 Civil War
battle. That battle saw Confederate forces defeat a Union cavalry feint on Aiken and Graniteville before the Union troops
turned on Columbia, capturing the state capitol, just months before the Confederacy collapsed. The re-creation — with
more than $1 million in uniforms, tents, cavalry charges and equipment, including 15 dueling cannons — continues today

belongs.If Congress refuses to do these two things, the very least they could do is repeal legal tender

All my life I have heard the term 'inflation'. But what does it really mean? If you look it up on Wiki you'll
find: 'In economics, inflation is a rise in the general level of prices of goods and services in an economy over a period
of time. The term "inflation" once referred to increases in the money supply (monetary inflation); however, economic debates about the relationship between money supply
and price levels have led to its primary use today in describing price inflation.'
This is really the debate,
isn't it? Most of the Big Government people describe it as just a general price increase. Those who look into the issue
and are skeptical of government (especially the Austrian school) tend to describe it as in increase in the amount of money
in society - which in today's world is due to government action.
Paper currency is only a medium of exchange
because of the force and power of the central government. The slip of paper itself has no real value. And it is not representative
of gold held by the government - those days were officially ended by Nixon. That means that the Federal Reserve (the US central
bank) can print as many dollars as they wish. Naturally, this lowers the value of all other dollars in the world. But the
first people who receive the dollars - the government itself, government contractors, the banks, etc - are able to spend the
'new' dollars first at the price levels which existed before the adjustment which will follow their 'additional'
spending. The people who do not get the money first - rural folks, poor people, the vast majority of people in society really
- suffer. This is one of the effects of inflation.
In 1923 Germany suffered run-away inflation. The picture here
is from that era and you can see the children stacking the currency to the ceiling. It was basically worthless. That is the
danger of paper currency - governments can very easily destroy its value. Governments have this natural tendency too. Rather
than raise taxes, which is a politically dangerous thing to do, they can just print more dollars and give them to their friends
and such. The recent bailouts are perfect examples of this. The importance of protecting ourselves from the destructive power of the Federal Reserve has
never been greater. Buy a little gold or silver (coins or bullion) if you can. Real money - gold and silver - does not
depend upon government force for their value. It has been chosen by people throughout history as the preferred money
of most of the world. Government paper can never compete with gold and silver in the long run. And in times of crisis,
history shows that a little real money can go a long ways.
'The Civil War [sic!] came alive Friday for students at Beulah

school received a real-life history lesson courtesy of members of the Keeping History Alive organization.... For Judi Haver's
middle school social studies classes, the re-enactment was a perfect ending to their study of the War of Northern Aggression,

our lives!
'America had best brace herself for difficult days ahead. For
stepping back from the dreary prognosis for Afghanistan, a new reality becomes clear. The long retreat has begun. Whether
it is in the 23 months Gen. Petraeus favors, or the 16 months Obama promised, the United States is coming home from Iraq.'
The sooner the Empire is drawn down, the better. Of course, it would be far better if this could happen peacefully
and quickly - but that's not likely to happen.

Tax revolt in New Jersey - citizens angered by local government theft
Citizens of a New Jersey town are up in arms about the latest example
of massive government theft from the people. As bad as the Feds are, they are not the only government thieves in America -
local and State governments do what they can get away with as well. Only by standing up to the crooks can we keep what is
ours and check their tyrannical works.
Peter Schiff, one of the most famous Free-Market economists
today, contrasts government paper to gold, in this clip from his latest radio show. Excellent stuff!

deleterious effects of Plan Columbia and the U.S. war on drugs.'

More evidence that the greater Empire has absolutely no regard for
the Southron people, culture and history. It's time to leave this failed and dying 'Union' for good! This is not
a regime we as honourable, traditional people want anything at all to do with.
'South teams will still be called

'"Maryland, My Maryland," the state song which "spurns

never paid a lot of attention to the words," said Delegate Pamela Beidle, D-Anne Arundel, who introduced a bill in the
House to change the lyrics of the state song to pay tribute to Maryland rather than express "Confederate sympathies."'
Another open assault on Southron culture and identity - and a passionately defiant pro-South anthem. Attacks
like this are the great benefit we receive from government gone mad. Do they ever do anything right? Not that I can
see.

And so, McCain is upset
that he wasn't on the inside planning the latest efforts by the Feds to steal and redistribute massive amounts of wealth.

think the Fairness Doctrine should be reinstated," Hinchey told CNNRadio. Hinchey says he could make it part of a bill
he plans to introduce later this year overhauling radio and t-v ownership laws.'
We already live in a pseudo-fascist
Empire which militarily controls and exploits most of the world. That was not evil enough for many Congressmen, apparently. Now
they are openly talking more and more like true fascists. From their own words we can see that the Feds are all
too eager to dictate what we can say and own. In that respect they are just like the bunch who ran (and brought destruction
to) Fascist Italy, National Socialist Germany and Soviet Russia.

Southern National Congress Denounces 'False Stimulus' Bill
'On behalf of the fourteen State Delegations to the Southern
National Congress (SNC), the SNC Board of Governors announced today its strong opposition to the stimulus-and-bailout bills
now making their way through the U.S. Congress. We are deeply concerned about our fellow Southerners who have lost their jobs,
their homes, or the value of their retirement accounts. We pledge ourselves to help wherever we can, and we encourage all
Southerners to help relieve the suffering of the jobless and homeless. However, no so-called "stimulus bills" solve
our economy's problems. In fact, more government pork-and-spending will make things worse. Government spending will impede
a genuine recovery by further weakening the U.S. dollar and increasing the growing risk of hyper-inflation. Make no mistake,
the two bills on the table are spending bills, pure and simple. They contain "so much pork that you'd think Jimmy
Dean wrote them himself."'
'A Dutch MP who called the Koran a "fascist book"

But Mr Wilders, who faces trial in his own country for inciting hatred, has been denied entry by the Home Office.'
And so, the millions of invaders in Europe (and the ruling European elite) are angry that a Dutchman had the courage
to speak his mind. And for this terrible offense of uttering words, he is to be placed on trial. And this is called justice?
What a joke!
Obama to expand Feds' occupation of the Middle East
'Obama has been expected for weeks to announce the deployment
of as many as three combat units comprising up to 17,000 troops; top Pentagon officials have said they envision two of the
units arriving in Afghanistan by the end of spring and a third during the summer. U.S. military planners have been considering
sending two Army brigade combat teams, each with about 3,500 soldiers, and a larger Marine task force of a number expected
to approach 10,000 troops. The Pentagon is already sending about 2,200 support troops known as enablers and an Army combat
aviation brigade of 2,800 soldiers, in addition to an Army combat brigade of 3,800 soldiers that deployed last month in eastern
Afghanistan. The expected U.S. build-up would increase the total number of Western forces, including troops from other NATO
countries, to around 100,000 troops.'

I study English at a university in Hungary. I am writing my BA thesis about the culture of the South. I
was looking for people from the Southern states to supply my BA thesis with firsthand information about current issues. I
got in touch with people from Dixie who told me a lot about your history and culture, and the controversies. I feel that I
am beginning to understand your frame of mind. At least I hope so.
I have been intrigued by Southern culture and
the Southern accent for quite a long time. I cannot really explain why. It is said- I have read it in a book- that we Europeans
can see the differences between the South and the rest of the US, and your effort of preserving your traditions is fascinating
to us, because of our fears of globalization and multiculturalism, furthermore we also admire the South’s long-standing
resistance. It might be true. There is, however, another thing I find appealing, namely your patriotism. I have been asking
people from Dixie about their views on the War for Southern Independence, the Confederate battle flag, and secession.
Some of them are fierce defenders of the cause, others do not care so much, or are even against secession and flying the flag.
In one point, though, they all agree; they all think Southern culture is unique, they all believe the South is the most beautiful
place on earth, and they all passionately love their homeland.
When I say that I am writing about the Southern
states, I get strange looks. People associate the South immediately with the KKK. What is more interesting, that when I ask
you questions about your culture, the first thing you do is to declare you are not racists. I do not think that we are so
race oriented in Central Europe. It is nothing to boast of, but we have enough ‘intra-racial’ controversies within
the region, and among ourselves. We might have different cultural backgrounds, and speak different languages, but I can see
similarities between your history and present situation, and ours. In a book I have been reading about the South, I found
the following statement about Reconstruction: the white South had suffered a cruel and consciousless reign of a vengeance,
which makes the Treaty of Versailles appear sweet and Christian by comparison. The treaty the author referred to is what we
call the Treaty of Trianon (1920), which regulated the borders of Hungary. The signatories were: France, Italy, Japan, United
Kingdom and United States. This meant that Hungary lost over two-thirds of its territory and two-thirds of its inhabitants.
The beneficiaries of this adjustment were the neighbouring countries. I think it is very interesting that Hungary was brought
up in comparison with Reconstruction, but we might have clashing opinions regarding this issue. However, I wish you success,
prosperity, and a glorious future as an independent nation.

'Just as government officials had feared, the drug violence
raging in Mexico is spilling over into the United States. U.S. authorities are reporting a spike in killings, kidnappings
and home invasions connected to Mexico's murderous cartels. And to some policymakers' surprise, much of the violence
is happening not in towns along the border, where it was assumed the bloodshed would spread, but a considerable distance away,
in places such as Phoenix and Atlanta...And drug smugglers kidnap illegal immigrants in clashes with human smugglers over
the use of secret routes from Mexico...[I]nvestigators believe Arizona and Atlanta are seeing the worst of the violence because
they are major drug distribution hubs thanks to their webs of interstate highways. In fact, drug officials have dubbed Atlanta
"the new Southwest border," said Jack Killorin, a former federal drug agent and director of the Atlanta region's
High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area task force.'
That right there, along with myriad other issues which
directly harm the Southron People, is what's wrong with Washington's open-border policy! Kindly note how
the author of this article begins: 'Just as government officials had feared...' Just as the feds and their lapdogs
at all levels 'feared?' Folks, don't be fooled by this propaganda! Oh yes, they have always known
the disaster open borders have caused and will continue to cause, but never have they lamented over the negative
impact of this - that is, on us Southrons. Both 'mainstream' political parties are vying for the 'honour'
of being the political party that bought votes by granting illegals amnesty and citizenship, thereby even further dominating
the system for the foreseeable future.
They know that, should their respective plans succeed to, among other
things, do this, we Southrons and others throughout this empire will be completely disenfranchised and subjected to an
un-Godly expansion of what we've already been facing for far too long. 'Our' handlers have always
known this - all of this - yet they continue to proceed with this agenda. Dixie is merely an expendable
possession to the yankee-run federal government. Southrons are not citizens under this system; we're nothing more
than its subjects - its serfs! Dixie has long been a separate nation, but isn't it time we Southrons lived
in an independent nation-state - with a government that actually carries out one of the few, most basic tasks with
which it is charged?
'Mr. Obama used the event to hammer home what he called the
benefits of his program of spending and tax breaks, promising that it would create or save nearly 80,000 jobs in Indiana,
give 2.5 million state residents a $500 tax credit and provide health care, unemployment benefits and job training for tens
of thousands more. Bringing it down to the most local level, he suggested his plan would help rebuild U.S. Highway 31 and
build an overpass in Elkhart.'
This is the sort of failed economic thinking that gives us repeated bubbles
and busts - focusing on one sector of the public and not the whole. Sure, the Feds can steal billions from productive tax
payers and reallocate these funds to failing industries or government spending projects, but this does not benefit everyone.
It benefits those who receive the stolen loot (the unions, the CEO's, banks, etc) and hurts the economy as a whole. As
well, the massive pumping of money into the system that the Federal Reserve is doing is stealing value from all dollars in
the world. Morally, this can only be considered theft and is highly destructive to the economy. Obama needs to read Henry
Hazlitt's 'Economics in One Lesson' - chapters four (on public works projects) and fourteen (on saving failed
industries).
'As the national and regional economies worsen, industrial production

'The recent debate over the nearly $900 billion economic stimulus

'A black state senator is pushing a bill that would require
South Carolina cities and counties to give their workers a paid day off for Confederate Memorial Day or lose millions in state

At first glance, this would seem a strong advancement for the pro-South movement. If we were fascists
or socialists, this would be true. But as liberty-loving patriots who want as little government intervention (taxation, regulation,
legislation, foreign wars, etc) in any form as possible in our lives, this plan does not meet muster. The backers of the bill
dismiss any talk of the cost, but the money must be taken from someone in order to be given to the State workers for the paid
holiday. Reading the article, we can also see the threats from Columbia to the rest of the State if they were to object to
the added cost. Of course, the people who are opposed to our culture and identity would never hesitate to use the power of
government to ram their agenda down our throats. However, the society we wish to live in is one where our culture is
respected not due to government decree, theft and redistribution of wealth - but because our people are left alone to live
out their lives in their own land as they see fit.
'The historic Virginia city has for years permitted the flying

Temporarily saved from another Federal power-grabbing scheme
´President Barack Obama's push to revamp the costly and

So, it is the central regime´s role to make things more efficient?
haha! That simply can not be taken seriously by any one who gives it any thought at all. There is nothing (thank Heavens!)
efficient about the Feds. This is simply another power-grab by them gone awry. They are thieves who tripped over themselves
and blew the robbery.
The Feds side with government school against Confederate flag
Another case of the Feds backing up one of the thousands and thousands
of schools they ultimately control across the vast Empire in their continual assault on liberty and especially any sign
of cultural identity from one of their conquered peoples. Always in the name of helping the oppressed or discriminated against,
the Feds assume more and more control.
'The first African-American president began by poking fun at
the club's historical roots. "I know that many you are aware that this dinner began almost 100 years ago as a way

during the Civil War. "If he were here with us tonight, the general would be 202 years old. And very confused."

'An illegal immigrant who has sought sanctuary in a Chicago
church to avoid deportation for the past year says she'll keep calling for immigration reform. Flor Crisostomo has
defied a deportation order to Mexico while living at the Adalberto United Methodist Church.'
Naturally, we
should permit our feelings to over-ride the law and allow her entire family to join her in Illinois and then change our laws
to allow all of Mexico to join her. We could also provide her family (and eventually her entire nation) with government schooling,
housing, welfare and the rest - that would be the complete socialist dream, right? Meanwhile, we have the opportunity to pay
more taxes to support all these government handouts while dwindling to a tiny minority in our own land. Yes, it's
a leap from one person to an entire country. But what is being advocated, if carried out completely, is nothing short of the
above.
Having no respect for the historic culture and peoples of Dixie,
the Federal Government floods our land with aliens from every corner of the planet (in this case from a culture and religion
entirely alien to the South) in an obvious attempt to destroy our unique identity.
