China is the
biggest threat to the world
In general
terms, we understand sovereignty to mean a nation's independence from other
governments, and its freedom of choice to act politically. In history, there
are many examples of sovereignty concentrated in a single ruler like the
tsar-autocrats of Russia, or the French King Louis XIV, who declared, "I
am the state." But states today have elaborate procedures that
decentralize their sovereignty, for example, through periodic elections,
independent courts, etc. For a constitutional republic like the United States,
our sovereignty also includes an important central element described in the
phrase, "Congress shall make no law.... "
We reject
the idea that a king is sovereign, and we reject the idea that a few hundred
congressmen in Washington are sovereign, even if we do have a right to vote for
some of them. We say "the people are sovereign," and in a society
based on individual rights this is more than a slogan. The U.S. Constitution
makes its clearest general statement of popular sovereignty in the Bill of
Rights, Amendment IX: "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain
rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the
people."
Sovereignty
includes not only our right to feel safe against a foreign army's invasion and
to vote for those who make our laws, but it also touches a family's daily
economic life, the right to own property, and to work and invest in private
businesses. A large part of our sovereign "independence from government
and freedom of choice to act politically" comes from the decentralized
power of a free market economy. Popular political movements rely on fundraising
and volunteers, who need the economic independence only a competitive
capitalist economy provides. Democracy depends on a free market economic
system, which in turn is based on consumer sovereignty, which is really
"voting with dollars" for our favorite products and services.
American political sovereignty is necessarily tied to the people's right to
sell or buy whatever they find useful.
S Africa
Chinese 'become black'
The High
Court in South Africa has ruled that Chinese South Africans are to be
reclassified as black people.
It made the
order so that ethnic Chinese can benefit from government policies aimed at
ending white domination in the private sector.
The Chinese
Association of South Africa took the government to court, saying its members
had been discriminated against.
An estimated
200,000 ethnic Chinese live in South Africa.
The
association said their members often failed to qualify for business contracts
and job promotions because they were regarded as whites.
The
association said Chinese South Africans had faced widespread discrimination
during the years of apartheid when they had been classified as people of mixed
race.
The BBC's
Mpho Lakaje in Johannesburg says the Broad-Based Economic Empowerment and the
Employment Equity Acts were designed to eradicate the legacy of apartheid which
left many black people impoverished.

But do you
hear about any of this on the mainstream news?
Of course
not.
They would
rather focus on the latest celebrity scandal.
Right now,
the global move away from the U.S. dollar is slow but steady.
At some
point, some trigger event will likely cause it to become a stampede.
When that
happens, demand for U.S. dollars and U.S. debt will disintegrate and interest
rates will absolutely skyrocket.
