Who's next to get screwed?

by Leon Fisher, Unknown News leonjfisher@webtv.net April 9, 2007
Truckers are proud of what they do, and consider themselves

loyal
Americans, generally trusting of Government, and frowning on those who dissent.
However, I think that this frame of mind is about to change, if plans to
implement the North American Union comes into being.
While mention of
the North American Union has not yet received much media attention, details
of this latest trade treaty between Canada, Mexico, and the US are
beginning to leak out. One of the details which is causing considerable
consternation to American truckers would allow Mexican truckers to ship
all goods coming into the United States.
Mexican trucks and their
drivers, though not held to the high safety standards to which their American
counterparts are held, will be given access to the US highway system
regardless. Nor will the Mexican truckers have to pay road use taxes as
American truckers are required to do.
The idea of unsafe Mexican trucks
bringing in goods made in Mexico and other foreign countries on roads
paid for and maintained by the US taxpayer -- while American truckers are
shut out -- is intolerable. While

Pledge allegience to

the North American Union?

| American truckers plan to protest, this
latest move by the scoundrels in Washington should come as no surprise,
being just a continuation of the selling out of America and the betrayal
of the American people.
Because of the coming North American Union,
which will make lower-paid labor readily available, the higher-paid
American trucker will no longer be needed.
This is the modus operandi of "Free
Trade," which has devastated industry after industry in America since its
inception. First it was the steel industry, then it was textiles, then
it was manufacturing, then the auto industry, then the high-tech sector,
and now the housing bust. The North American Union is just another
manifestation of "Free Trade," politically correct jargon for corporate
fascism, with the ultimate goal of putting an end to the United States
as a sovereign nation, instead leaving the U.S. an entity whose importance would
be little more than that of a glorified trading post in a global economy
controlled by multi national corporations.
American truckers will not be
the only victims of what is the latest collaboration of Corporate
America and their lackeys in Congress, but those Americans who will be
forced from their homes and property to make way for the superhighway
which will cut a swath thru middle America from Mexico to the Canadian
border.
This theft of private property in America was made possible by a
ruling several years ago in favor of Eminent Domain, made into the law
of the land by the black-robed criminals of the Supreme Court, no doubt
in anticipation of the implementation of the North American Union.
Of course, no mention was made of the North American Union at the time of
the ruling, but the North American Union has been in the works for
quite some time and will be put into effect despite what the American
people think. Any protest by the truckers will elicit sympathy
from the public, but the North American Union will go ahead regardless.
What
has happened to other sectors of the American workforce will next befall the
hapless truckers. Without real representation in Washington, the trucking
industry will go the same route as manufacturing, etc.
