Transnationalism, Internationalism, and Statism

Transnationalism, Internationalism, and Statism. These philosophies of rule rather than governing are a great danger to our country. We the people are for the most part unaware of what is happening basically because it is being accomplished in incremental small doses. Unless we wake up and let our voices be heard loud and clear that we are a sovereign country, we will succumb. We do have a Declaration of Independence, and a U.S. Constitution that is the blue print for our nation. All too often we hear that the Constitution is irrelevant, or it is a living document with little significance in today's world. Conservatives and Patriots know better. You hear the Secretary of State talk about a "progressive America". Progressive sounds good, but when it is put in the context of losing your freedoms in the process, in a word it sucks. Lets do a bit of defining.

Transnationalism is a social movement promoting a heightened interconnectivity between people and the loosening of boundaries between countries. Transnationalism as an economic process involves the global reorganization of the production process, in which various stages of the production of any product can occur in any country, typically with aim of minimizing costs.

Proponents of transnationalism seek to facilitate the flow of people, ideas, and goods between regions. They believe that it has increasing relevance with the rapid growth of globalization. They contended it does not make sense to link specific Nation-state boundaries with for instance migratory work forces, globalized corporations, global money flow, global information flow, and global scientific cooperation.

Internationalism refers to global co-operation between nation states, and points to the affairs between nation state governments, while transnationalism refers to global co-operation between people, and points of activities, which transcends national boundaries and in which nation-state governments do not play the most important or even a significant role. So there are careful distinctions being made between international or multinational relationships-between and among nation-states or their agents thereof-and transnational relationships between and among individuals and other entities, regardless of nation-state boundaries.

Statist, very briefly, Conservatives must acknowledge the statist does not share his passion for for liberty and all the good that flows from it. The statist does not recognize the tremendous benefits the great benefits to society from the individual efforts and pursuits of tens of millions of others. The statist rejects the Founder's idea of the dignity of the individual , who can flourish through orffered liberty, for one rooted in unpredictability, irrationality and Ultimately tyranny.

I think these three pernicious political forces are currently being implemented by enemies of our country, liberty, and our personal freedoms. If they are successful, the sovereignty of our country will become a thing of the past, and we the people will become subjects rather than citizens.

Transnationalism also calls for a global court system that will supplant power of our countires court system. Now, isn't that special.
