The ‘GIVE’ Act Calls for Your Kids to be ‘Owned’ by the State
The ‘GIVE’ Act (H.R.1388) Calls for Your Kids to be ‘Owned’ by the State
The entry below is a partial quote from the article linked above. It’s a long article (well worth a complete read) and this quote begins at least two-thirds of the way down.
If you have kids or “sleep walking” friends and family, you will probably be as disturbed by this as I am. It brings to mind the “Brown Shirts” ….. the Nazi Germany civilian military force, comprised mostly of youth.
Mark my words! Those who are required to enter this civilian training and those who volunteer for such training, will be propagandised to view people like me as threats. They will be trained to arrest and detain, or disappear, any who rebel.
Keep this Bible scripture in mind as you read about these plans for a civilian military force.
Mark 13:12
The ‘GIVE’ Act (H.R.1388) Calls for Your Kids to be ‘Owned’ by the State
………….“To coal and iron mines, to freight trains, to fishing fleets in December, to dishwashing, clotheswashing, and windowwashing, to road-building and tunnel-making, to foundries and stoke-holes, and to the frames of skyscrapers, would our gilded youths be drafted off, according to their choice, to get the childishness knocked out of them, and to come back into society with healthier sympathies and soberer ideas. They would have paid their blood-tax, done their own part in the immemorial human warfare against nature;they would tread the earth more proudly, the women would value them more highly, they would be better fathers and teachers of the following generation. Such a conscription, with the state of public opinion that would have required it, and the many moral fruits it would bear, would preserve in the midst of a pacific civilization the manly virtues which the military party is so afraid of seeing disappear in peace. We should get toughness without callousness, authority with as little criminal cruelty as possible, and painful work done cheerily because the duty is temporary, and threatens not, as now, to degrade the whole remainder of one’s life.”
“Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.”
The “nature” of real brutish warfare is nothing other than the plundering of the have-nots by the haves, as Mr. James and his ilk would have it. The youth must be taught to war against this anti-collectivist and brutish “nature.” It is only then that they can be proud of themselves and their society, when they have learned to war against this realest of “injustices,” when they have mandatorily volunteered, as the GIVE Act would have it, to serve the oppressed peoples.
Mr. James goes on and on:
“I spoke of the “moral equivalent” of war. So far, war has been the only force that can discipline a whole community, and until and equivalent discipline is organized, I believe that war must have its way. But I have no serious doubt that the ordinary prides and shames of social man, once developed to a certain intensity, are capable of organizing such a moral equivalent as I have sketched, or some other just as effective for preserving manliness of type. It is but a question of time, of skillful propagandism, and of opinion-making men seizing historic opportunities.”
The “moral equivalent of war” is nothing other than socialist class warfare. The “equivalent discipline that needs to be organized” is further unveiled in the GIVE Act. This act is not only the fruition of the foundation laid by Mr. James, but also the embodiment of plans announced by both Barrack Obama, and his Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel. Plans to have “a civilian national security force.” In July 2008 Obama stated (and repeated many times before and since) “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded.” His Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, stated his intention to help create “universal civil defense training” in 2006. Despite denials from the Obama administration about specific plans to institute a mandatory program of national service, his original Change.gov website stated that Americans would be “required” to complete “50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year.” The text was only later changed to state that (all) Americans would be “encouraged” to undertake such programs. This of course would be an example of the “skillful propagandism of opinion-making men seizing historic opportunities.” We’ve heard much about seizing the “historic opportunities” that emerge out of crisis lately, haven’t we? According to the statists that crafted the GIVE Act, and all the preceding legislation and agencies that led to its birthing, the “question of time” proposed by Mr. James is now being answered.
A bit more of Mr. James will suffice:
“The martial type of character can be bred without war…Priests and medical men are in a fashion educated to it, and we should all feel some degree of its imperative if we were conscious of our work as an obligatory service to the state. We should be owned, as soldiers are by the army, and our pride would rise accordingly…The only thing needed henceforward is to inflame the civic temper as part history has inflamed the military temper … H.G. Wells adds that he thinks that the conceptions of order and discipline, the tradition of service and devotion, of physical fitness, unstinted exertion, and universal responsibility, which universal military duty is now teaching European nations, will remain a permanent acquisition when the last ammunition has been used in the fireworks that celebrate the final peace. I believe as he does. It would be simply preposterous if the only force that could work ideals of honor and standards of efficiency into English or American natures should be the fear of being killed by the Germans or the Japanese. Great indeed is Fear; but it is not, as our military enthusiasts believe and try to make us believe, the only stimulus known for awakening the higher ranges of men’s spiritual energy.”
“We should be owned, as soldiers are by the army?” “Owned” is pregnant with visions of involuntary servitude, is it not? The further you delve into this brain spewing of Mr. James, the concept of “temporary” seems to evaporate. Nevertheless, being “owned,” either temporarily or permanently, is still involuntary servitude. Notice again, the necessity to “inflame the civic temper,” to “blowing on the spark until the whole population gets incandescent,” through means of “skilful propagandism of opinion-making men.” All of this points to the unnatural, the artificial, the fabricated nature of the entirety of what the statist mind puts out as truth. Such are the minds of the Jameses, the Deweys, the Obamas, the Emmanuels. They are unnatural, artificial, fake, deceptive, in a word…lying. That they can state their lies articulately and eloquently does not make them not lies. It does though make them Orwellian unlies.
Under section 6104 of the GIVE Act, entitled Duties, in subsection B6, the legislation states that a commission will be set up to investigate whether a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people could be developed, and how such a requirement could be implemented in a manner that would strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges.
One may ask, “What’s the big deal about kids doing some good for their community?” There is one very simple answer for this…”What’s the big deal with your kids being OWNED by an omnipotent government?” ……… “

I wish I could rec this more than once. The Brown Shirts in Germany sound no different than these plans. I always wanted to spare my kids from the truth of what’s happening if I could, at least for awhile, but it’s looking like our children need awareness of these things now, or we may all be in danger in the future. Never under-estimate the power of indoctrination.
I will be back to read this as soon as I get dinner done. Your user name peeked my interest. Glad to see you around
@ShamelesslyRed - I’m “around” alot more than you know.
saturnnights is my boyfriend and he and I look at and discuss your site all the time. He’s more talkative here on Xanga than I am but I do share his ideas and opinions and I am awake and aware. Keep doing what you’re doing. We need people like you to keep raising awareness.
@AwakeandAware - Thank you. IT’s encouragement that I needed, more than you know
