Agenda 21 and the “Pod People”

03 September 2011

George Rebane

Jo Ann and I have attended many local workgroups and meetings where the pod people were in obvious attendance. These meetings presented ideas and plans for environmental harmony, smart growth, green jobs, local sustainability, and so on. A recent one we attended involved sincere people who promoted the establishment of many small farms in Nevada County on which returning veterans and other dedicated souls would work to locally produce the food we eat while earning a ‘just living wage’ in the process. The room was well populated with some of the most sincere pod people that we have seen in these parts.

Pod people? You’ll have to read the excellent piece – ‘The many tentacles of Agenda 21’ – by Judi Caler in the 3sep11 Union to get the full definition. But if you’re old enough to remember ‘The Invasion of the Body Snatchers’, you’re well on your way to understanding.

RR readers are familiar with Agenda 21 and its American cousin ‘The American Dream Movement’ (here). Agenda 21 is the UN’s comprehensive program to establish global governance in some TBD form whose common denominator is that the UN will evolve into the earth’s governing unit.

Ms Caler’s piece is a well-written summary of how this agenda is overtly, and yet covertly, being implemented by thousands of feel-good consensus preliminaries promoted at local levels. The article concludes with an invitation to become more informed about Agenda 21, and, hopefully, lend your weight behind initiatives to counter it and continue supporting the future of America as a constitutional sovereign nation-state, given us by the Founders and handed down to us by our forebears through the sacrifice of their blood, sweat, and tears.

Recently a new organization formed in Nevada County to fight the monster that is Agenda 21: Reclaiming Our American Rights (ROAR!). If you would like to learn more about Agenda 21 and/or how you can help stop it locally, please contact unagenda21@hotmail.com or 530-559-0828.

A good summary of Agenda 21 can be found at http://www.makingofahome.blogspot.com/2011/06/fascist-stealth-of-agenda-21.html .

I’ll bite on Agenda 21. The UN has no statutory authority in the US. Anything developed as part of A21 that the US wanted to do would have to be approved as part of our normal political process (just like GATT, or any trade agreement, or a treaty) so what’s the big deal?

You’re absolutely right SteveF and MikeT, Agenda 21 will only make progress in the US when the UN gets statutory authority in our country. Not to worry, let’s stop this comment stream.

Now you have a problem with B Corporations? Why would you want to have a say in how a company can incorporate? If a company wants to include social and environmental objectives what’s the problem. I thought you guys were free marketeers.

No problem at all with B corporations, nor do I want to tell a private company how to incorporate; but I do have a problem with how MY state government may pick and choose winners/losers based on how nicely they play as a B corporation, and not on the performance and cost merits of their bid for a government contract. We continue on our perennial disconnect SteveF, but then you knew that.

I’m sorry I don’t see how the creation of B Corporations could possible imply that the state may play favorites. The creation of B’s does not effect contracting bids. But then I wonder, do you support the local hire provisions that Sierra College and others have used? Is this picking winners/losers?

Now boys,
I have enjoyed all the bantering back and forth avoiding Agenda 21, which is a boring UN document made interesting by all of you. Thank you, George and Todd, for defending me. I don’t know Paul Emery, and therefore his comment was curious. I’ve been accused of not having the charm of Drew Bedwell?! I’m actually quite charming. I didn’t know Drew, and I’m sure he was as well.
I always appreciate the American sense of humor and especially, being the animal person that I am, I enjoyed the link of the cat singing about her little tinfoil hat. Thank you, Steven F. Also thanks to Steven F. for bringing up “None Dare Call It Conspiracy,” although he may not realize it was a best-selling well-documented book in 1972. I challenge him to find it at our public library and read it. We’re not talking theories here. I believe ‘conspiracy’ originally meant ‘breathe together.’ Too bad words have been redefined to the point that we need to watch our every word for fear it will be jumped on and traded for tinfoil hats. By the way, the follow up book to ‘None Dare…” is “Call It Conspiracy.” Both predate Agenda 21 and document global governance. What threw a monkey wrench into global governance for a while was the U.S. Constitution.
Finally, this isn’t a left/right issue. I think we are all opposed to swat-style raids on family farms and businesses, the destruction of organic and nutritious food as we know it, forced immunizations, invasion of privacy, illegal wars, the end of private property and loss of our freedom. I think the only thing some of us don’t get yet is that they are all related. You are the ones yelling “snake attack,” rather than realizing it’s an octopus. There really isn’t that much difference between us.
We’re all in this together, my friends. I suggest we become open minded enough to get away from the lame stream media and catch a dose of reality. This will call for a paradigm shift. And sooner or later, you won’t be able to avoid it anyway. Instead of focusing on marginalizing the messenger with a little tinfoil hat, why not focus on the U.S. Constitution and our freedom which is diminished when the Constitution is ignored.
If any of you gentlemen would care to receive articles and video links from me as they occur, please let me know. I’d be pleased to help educate Nevada County. After a while even you will put this all together and buy your own little tinfoil hat.
Here are a couple of links to get you started in addition to the Gibson Guitar links which are right on:

Not endangered wood but corruption.
“”It’s a strong European wood broking lobby that is fomenting trouble,” said BH Patel of Mumbai-based Patel Wood Syndicate. “Indian exporters, unlike their foreign counterparts, do not sell wood through European brokers. We deal with foreign companies directly. European wood brokers have always disapproved our way of cutting deals directly.”
Looks to me like a group of business people are responsible for the corruption. I don’t see India griping about the enviros, and they’ve got a Big Dog in play here.
BTW, on improving society, I wrote on Facebook:
“If we had a culture in which all valued the work others do for us, then the wheels of commerce, be they socialized or private enterprise, would roll so much smoother, and softer, and way more efficient. The notion that one needs to have a bear (competition) chasing you all of your life to get things done most efficiently is stupid. Instead, a lot of “hey, that’s really great” comments, will set the mind a turning on thoughts of, “what can I do for an encore?” Society will then evolve into a smoother running machine, both socially and economically.”
This was in reference to the USPO being inefficient.

DougK, just so we understand – are you proposing that societies organized on the basis of reliable altruistic behavior by its members is what we should be striving for?
If so, is that not what every shade of collectivism has prescribed, and upon which every attempt at such governance has finally foundered? (cf. Garrett Hardin) Then is yours yet another appeal of ‘but this time we will get it right.’
And specifically, we already do value the work others do for us, and we do it on the basis of voluntary one-to-one agreements which allow each of us in the agreement to put our own values on such work. You’re not proposing to do away with such agreements through the entry of a third party with a gun who will prescribe by force to both parties what the ‘fair value’ of the work should be, are you?

Dear Judi: As you get to know me you will realize that not only have I read “None Dare Call It Conspiracy” (as a teenager I might add) but that the reference was intended to both probe and make a few of you chuckle. Plus, I liked your subtle reference to gender roles here….a point that I find prescient.
With that said, I have been the victim at times of the charge of conspiracy–I think there may be a conspiracy to make the charge of conspiracy–and have found it distasteful.

I won’t deny that our rights are being eroded, but I would argue that it is a homegrown problem rather than a UN plot. The Progressive/Democrats don’t really need any outside help to accomplish their Big Brother inspired agenda. The problem for me is that the only alternative is the Republican party, who have their own version of religious bad ju-ju. Why is it we can’t find a political party that respects the rights of all people instead of trying to find a convenient scapegoat to swat down?

Lots to mash here since this morning. First, thank you Judi for all hard work to keep people informed. You are truly a people’s advocate and your desire to maintain our Constitution makes me proud of you.
Regarding George;s last comment in response to Keachie. I am sad to report we already have a third party between the individuals who desire to contract with each other here in California. It is called the Consumer Affairs Division ( http://www.dca.ca.gov/) and is between every contract. As a Contractor, I must have a license and pay a fee every year. The fee goes into a fund to hire the regulators of me. Same with hair dressers, chiropractors, doctors etc. The only ones I know of who have a faux third party are the lawyers. The Constitution says the government can’t interfere with contracts but that is exactly what they do in every (above the table) endeavor.
[deleted gratuitous slap at SteveF; c’mon Todd, you’re making me work too hard trying all kinds ways to keep things civil. gjr]
Those that think there has been a benign UN are just plain silly. The only place they fail in their quest to advance a planetary government is there ineptness in protecting people’s under attack. I seem to recall many instances of the blue helmets boogieing away and many Rwandan people ended up murdered. That is why other nations take up the slack to try and keep the evildoers from murdering more innocent people. But, like any bureaucracy the UN churns out resolution after resolution hoping some will stick.

Just calling for more civility, starting with eliminating all robotic phone routing merry-go-rounds, which typically make a stupid basic assumption: No caller has enough intelligence to reference our website before calling and exhaust all the possibilities, and therefore now actually needs a human to answer an unusual question.
The you can move on to human to human communication, such as parents to teachers, and vs versa. And postal workers, grocery and other retail clerks, etc. And then there’s the really big one, your fellow travelers on the right of ways, from the tiniest tricyclist to the megaHome rolling towing a Cadillac Escalade.
Slow down and see your fellow humans…
