Young Adults to Take Back Small Town America

There is a little known hidden and tremendous potential in the connection between the drive and ingenuity of young adults and small town entrepreneurship.

The larger city local governments are now mostly overrun by officials elected on false pretenses and half truths. They are expert at justifying the ever increasing tax expenditures by affirming the need for an altruistic financial management that houses the homeless, feeds and provides healthcare to all who don’t earn around the median income. As they choke off retiring property owners and rural hospitals, they chase the major employers away and leave our youth with no choice but to head to the cities to find sufficient employment upon graduating from their local high school or from a distant college. This scenario is irrefutable and continues to worsen even in the face of a more stable and growing economy. The youth that remain have little hope for affording their own home or farm, or college tuition, retain a suppressed motivation to learn the higher level academic skills, and to spend enough time on difficult academic challenges. A disproportionate amount of time and energy is expended on sports and social media.

This youth subculture leaves a small town ripe for large developers to enter into contract with local government for the purpose of growing the subsidized housing sector and, by default, the socialist voting constituency. This is nothing but the human nature of the more powerful economic players preying on the weaker ones. It has become a serious and parasitic development across small town America. Eventually, the property taxes are raised beyond the reach of the family farm. Corporate agriculture, specifically in the form of concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOS) are ready to buy out the family farm at the auction once it has been confiscated for tax lien. Factory farms such as those run by large corporations like Tyson Foods, take over the whole process of breeding the animals to packaging them as food with the help of contracted suppliers. Crops are grown for maximum yield on pesticides and genetic engineering. Its nutritional value is depleted for the sake of maximizing the volume of crop yield and therefore the return on investment. The regulatory costs from the Obama administration alone have driven small farms into prohibitive debt. Farmers are forced into reducing their operations to limit their crops to corn and soybeans, to be sold to CAFOS as animal feed. As small and medium size farms consolidate to large farms, small businesses in these rural towns eventually close, leaving the town with less tax revenue.

In the US, no entity can colonize on US soil with the intention of forcing anyone to adopt religious beliefs and behaviors. By the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, native Indians were given citizenship and have their reservations by direct treaty with the federal government and are outside of US jurisdiction within their reservations. Their religious beliefs do not obligate them to force their beliefs onto any other citizen. In direct contrast, the growing Muslim communities, such as EPIC CITY that was planned in Texas, and do not have any such arrangement and are obligated to force their religious beliefs and behaviors upon others, totally unconstitutional. Once brought to governor Abbott’s attention, House bill 4211, banning Sharia Law, was passed and signed by the governor. Those of the Muslim communities believe and behave as if their location is a self declared reservation where it is legal for them to force their beliefs on others, even in public, such as in parks and schools. They favor socialist economics, being supported and subsidized by globalist international funds. It is up to our young adults to expose the money laundering and fraud, challenging city councils and county boards with alternative ways and objectives for improving their districts for the purpose of growing private equity, whether in the form of true family farms, family ranches, or small businesses that support these rural landowners. Establishing strong local farm to table networks and a limitation on rezoning small farm land can be very effective at limiting the urban crawl that radical local officials promote.

Arab immigrants arrived between 1880 and 1924, with a peak of 4,200 in 1920, until the passage of the Reed-Johnson Act of 1924 which limited immigration to 2% from each nationality in the US as of the 1890 census and excluded Asia altogether, limiting the quota from Syria/Lebanon to about 100. This was done for the express stated purpose to preserve the homogeneity of the country. Previous to this, the immigration Act of 1917 excluded anyone born in the “Asiatic Barred Zone” except Japan and the Philippines. While most of the Arabs emigrating to the US in the 1900s were Christians, Muslims from southern Lebanon concentrated themselves in Dearborn, Michigan to work at the Ford River Rouge complex, built in 1917. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 allowed spouses, direct children, and parents to immigrate to the US as non-quota. It provided a quota of 20,000 for each country, prioritizing 75% to family re-unification, 20% to employment, and 5% to refugees. Then, in 1967, a new wave of Arab Muslim immigrants came to the Southend of Dearborn as war refugees fleeing the civil war in Yemen and as displaced Palestinians from the 1967 Israeli-Palestinian War. They filed a class-action suit against the city of Dearborn in 1973 to prevent Ford from expanding into their property, under the 14th amendment. The Lebanese civil war of 1975 provided a new wave of Lebanese Muslim immigrants to Dearborn. They joined the civil rights movement in the 70s and 80s under the leadership of a new generation of Arab nationalists and Muslim political activists and formed a variety of institutions that supported their entry into the political arena. They elected their first Arab American into the city council in 1990. With Iraqi refugees in the 1990s and Syrian refugees in the 2010s, eventually gaining even more political power, they elected their own representative to US Congress in 2018, Rashida Tlaib, a Detroit native born to Palestinian parents in 1976, and then, Abdullah Mahmoud, a Dearborn native Arab-American, as mayor in 2021. Mahmoud allowed thousands of illegal Muslim migrants to arrive to Dearborn via the open southern border. As Muslims, they favored the Democratic Party to gain political support, and government subsidies for their families. They always support maximizing government spending toward local infrastructure and for expanding government services. They became the majority in Dearborn in 2023 at 55%.

In contrast to all other ethnicities in the US, the Muslims seek to isolate themselves for the purpose of gaining political power and directing the country’s foreign policy to favor their home countries and organizations. This is because it is antithetical for them to subordinate their ties to their home countries under the US Constitution and the best geopolitical interests of the United States. They do not actually naturalize to the US as all other immigrant populations have done from the beginning. It is contradictory for a Muslim community to embrace and appreciate the US Constitutional economic and religious freedoms that all other Ellis Island immigrants were motivated by. Given that the US enter into a direct military conflict with any of their home countries such as with the Gaza Strip, they will side with our military adversaries, becoming a danger to our national security.

The other poison in the ointment is that because they favor expanding welfare programs in health care and food distribution. This inevitably leads to radical socialist city councils and county commissioners that break rules and conventions in order to favor the Muslims communities over other ethnicities. At this point it becomes too late for the African American sector to influence change, leaving no recourse except to leave the area. The Southend of Dearborn and much of Detroit has become intolerant of non-Muslim residents. There, the Quran and Shariah Law supersede the US Constitution. The current interpretation of Quran 9:5 is that anyone who disrespects and disobeys Allah should be killed. The older generation immigrants from before the 70s and 80s are more pacifist.

Quran 9:5: “And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”

Who are the polytheists? Well, there are two camps. Some scholars say that they are Arabs who have entered into contract with believers under which they have 3 months to become believers, or be killed. Others believe that it applies to any non-believers. Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hezbollah, the Taliban, and believes that the polytheists are any non-believers of Allah.

With the help of globalist billionaires and their affiliate organizations, the activist globalists help elect local government leaders to allow Muslims to live as if Sharia law is superior to Constitutional law as in Dearborn, Michigan. Their motivation is to use the Muslim communities to deprioritize the Constitution itself, and to dilute and pollute the Judeo-Christian values of our society. They understand that this group would never be able to deprioritize Islam and Sharia law in favor of the US Constitution. The only legal and Constitutional way that a religious group could be granted a geographic location in which to congregate and live apart form the US Constitution would be by contract with the US government. No group has the right to congregate and set up their own political domain in which to deprioritize the US Constitution. The new problem we have here is that the global elites have supported elected officials that are dedicated to allowing the Muslim colonization of some of our smaller towns like Dearborn. Their objective is not only to deprioritize the US Constitution but to create government dependent communities that welcome socialism.

In contrast, Chinese American citizens and Iranian American citizens appreciate our Constitution after having full knowledge and the oppressive experience of communism and theocracy. They are here as defectors of those governments, not as pioneers of failed governance, and not with the intention of imposing their religious beliefs on other citizens around them. They have the same appreciation for our freedoms as the children of the earlier wave of non-Muslim immigrants that came through Ellis Island.

Let me pose a ‘what if?’. The ‘what if’ of our time as Americans is not if tariffs and private investment can grow the American economy. Contrary to popular opinion, it simply and logically cannot. Without a competitive entrepreneurial culture, and without a globally competitive workforce, our great country will grow economically stagnant at best. The proportion of HB1 visas in our technology industries tell the whole story. Not only are there too many taking the positions that should have employed our own youth, but they disproportionately displace our youth at the more advanced levels of basic science research. Too many of our youth are looking for a job, and not a career. Too many are seeking the yellow brick road and not the freedom to digress from it. Too many of the baby boomers are unknowingly enabling their decline!

Those of our more competitive youth have stronger learning identities and perceive themselves as able to learn whatever they need to contribute meaningfully in whatever setting they find themselves in, whether at work or in some special interest group. This is the most overlooked and underappreciated human resource that is being stolen from us right under our very noses by an indoctrination meant to degrade that personal drive and competitive spirit. It is systematically being done not just in public school, but through almost all venues that grab our young people’s passive attention.

It is widely understood that if you dismantle a long standing wood pile in a wooded surrounding on a hot summer day, you might expect to find at least one angry snake, most likely venomous. The same can be said for a city council and/or county board of commissioners who are challenged by sufficiently large petitions to reign in tax expenditures that bring no or little return on investment to the taxpayer. This almost never happens! But, what if, all of a sudden, there was a dedicated cohort of young adults who decided to take ownership and responsibility for the financial management of their town and brought sufficiently large petitions not only to their local governing body, but to the state legislature as well? What if they collaborated to start small businesses in their town that would successfully compete against those of the surrounding towns. What if they had such a smart business plan that would attract significant private investment? What if the town then prospered from the growth of the equity or the financial value of those businesses as opposed to property taxes? Could our young people pull it off?

Yes they can! But not without a brand new subculture, one that results from a new level of economic, social, and spiritual awareness. In my humble opinion, it is us baby boomers who allowed their educational and social environment to go to crap that owe them a launching pad. So, what kind of a launching pad? How do we create it? Well, the success of any plant is in the quality of the seed and the ecosystem in which it is planted. The most perfect planter is the God who created the perfect seed and the perfect ecosystem.

The most coveted business asset is not the most recent profit, nor the present value of the building or the website. It is the number of repeat or returning customers. A sharp reduction in the price of the product can cause this but only for a short period of time. Only those with a greater understanding of human nature will succeed in creating a sustaining repeat customer base. For our young people to succeed they will need the older people to mentor them accordingly.

Factually, and historically, there is only one mentor that has been able to turn thugs into big brothers, gang leaders into community leaders, wife beaters into compassionate husbands, and addicts into counselors. Jesus Christ is the only primary resource for this kind of a mission. A truly motivated intern will seek out the most knowledgeable and accomplished person in their field of interest. Yet he will settle for the next best if the latter has a genuine heart for mentoring. Jesus and only Jesus will be the mentor that motivates our young adults to take the real challenges of their future. He will point to the character of humility, integrity, compassion, and service. He will point to responsible financial stewardship, domestic and business. Specifically, he will point to a burning love for their family, for their community, and for their country. How will this happen? With our help, they will be awakened to the reality of the dark spiritual forces that are out to fill their lives with hate, anger, and frustration, with depression and addiction, to enslavement and impoverishment.

Just as investors decipher the near future demand in any industry, every small town has a near future demand for a service or a product. Only a knowledge of the people and their subculture, of their economic behavior, and of their values could investors wisely predict the economic demands of that town. This will largely determine what types of businesses may thrive in that town. How do you find the young entrepreneur to start that business? I might argue that he or she has already been designated, by their passion and performance in that field and their connection to the town. There are many young people performing well out of passion for their field in the bigger cities that given a chance would jump at starting their own enterprise in the small town they identify with, either through family or through friends they already know and visit with there.

Contrary to popular understanding, successful entrepreneurs are not only driven by the profit motive, but by a love for the people they serve with their enterprise. Those that do almost always extend that same love to their employees. Out of an appreciation to have the opportunity to grow a business in that town comes the unmistakable love for the people of that town.

Word of mouth does not come from word of mouth. It comes from the entire customer experience. It comes from customers who have been edified in their conversation, humbly respected in their demands and criticisms, informed out of professional knowledge and experience, and the consistent proven quality of the service or product, publicly giving all praise and glory to God. It is human nature that the customer’s expectation has to be not just met but exceeded. Our young people can do this, but only if they are mentored into this subculture and not their own. They must develop a passion not for just growing a business, but for growing a better business than what they have already seen. In many of our smaller towns, the longest standing businesses are the ones where those who serve know all their customers on a first name basis. They also know their cohorts in the other similar venues in that town. The business owners are known around the town and know one another as well.

How would such a town impact the surrounding towns? Only one word could describe this impact. Competition. Out of the motive to compete comes innovation, challenging learning curves, and hard work. God willing, this is precisely what the American economy will grow from while it prospers our young people for generations to come.

Yet none of this will work without the most important ingredient. Not prayer, but fervent and frequent prayer. It starts with the administrator of this mission, Jesus Christ, and continues with as many participants as are genuinely willing to follow Him in their daily lives. The founders of our Constitution all knew what it was like to be forced to accept religious beliefs according to the King of England as nominal head of the church of England. Their motivation was to legally guarantee the religious freedom to believe in Jesus Christ or not, and not be persecuted for believing or not believing. This, by pure logic, excludes any organization, secular or religious, from encroaching upon that freedom. It means that a Catholic cannot force or obligate a non-Catholic from abstaining from consuming meat on Good Friday. It also means that any religion whose tenet is to force religious behavior onto anyone exists outside of the bounds of our Constitution. Anyone who claims that religion and that tenet cannot become a US citizen. This is, logically, how our founders intended to prevent our country from becoming a theocracy, or any portion of it from being colonized by such a religious group or organization.

USING THE 80% AREA MEDIAN INCOME HUD RULE TO REDISTRIBUTE WEALTH

The main driver of the US economy is being quietly subdued in plain sight.

We can create all sorts of private investment in the US economy and the stock market will love it. We can create a surge of American jobs and the decreased unemployment rate will bring interest rates down, raising the housing market after a while. But if we make life artificially too easy for our young adults, the lack of passion and enthusiasm for learning and working hard enough will manifest within 3-5 years with less competitive products, unsuccessful innovation, and once again, a huge glut in basic science researchers for the creation of new materials and technology. A workforce that only strives to do what is required and demands a yellow brick road will fail the US irreparably. All of the Trump administration’s economic growth initiatives will have been sabotaged! Not only are our young people compromised in the quality of their basic pre-college education, but they will be even more severely defeated by being handed a richer lifestyle than they could afford on their own.

Since 1981, through the Omnibus Reconciliation Act the 80% AMI category has made it possible for young adults starting out in life to be given government housing assistance to afford 100% area median income market rate housing. Indeed, the largest cohort of subsidized renters (44%) in North Carolina is in the working age group of age 25-50. Single parents with children made up 95% of all families with children. With the recent surge in illegal immigrants taking jobs and housing from our legal population, driving rents artificially high, more and more of our own young adults have been qualifying for this assistance. In 2021, the Urban Institute’s study concluded that about 100,000 young adults (ages 19-25) live in subsidized housing with about a quarter of them living alone, the majority of them with extremely low incomes (at or below 30% AMI).

The National Low Income Housing Coalition estimated in 2024 that in the US there were 10.9 M extremely low income households with only 7.1M units available to them and that construction needs to be ramped up and incentivized by local governments. The <30% AMI cohort of 11 million households end up with only an overall availability of 7.1 million affordable units. The cohort represented with the least availability is the extremely low income (30%) group for which several housing advocate groups are sounding a housing shortage crisis alarm, advocating for building more developments, which house up to 80% units with income groups above 30% AMI. As an incentive, these developers get below market rate loans from the state and tax credits from the federal government. In essence, the city councils and county commissions across the country are using the extremely low income group as justification to build and provide housing for the moderately low income group. As for the funds to do this, whether from local government loans, or bonds sold to investors, it will all eventually be paid for by state property owners in the from of significantly increased property taxes and state user fees. Developers are paid for construction in the form of a percentage of the resultant revenue from rents and tax credits from the federal government proportional to the number and degree of subsidized housing. So, in reality, the financial incentives are all toward building taxpayer assisted apartments for renters not far below the area median income. It will always be more enticing for young people to move into a brand new apartment rather than a smaller older one or a small older single family house without the associated amenities. Not only does this entice young people to perpetually subsist without the motivation to continue their education and strive to climb the economic ladder but it also creates a huge conflict of interest for the elected city councilmembers, the mayor, and the county commissioners, as they approve the use of taxpayer money to house a guaranteed growing voting constituency. If this continues unchecked, for those cities, counties, and states which insist on forcing the property taxpayer to fund the growth of their dependent voting constituency, this will stifle the economic growth of the entire country. Following the demographics of the emerging 50-80% AMI sector will tell the whole story.

Below are charts which depict the magnitude of the problem within the period of 2023 to 2025.

One aspect to note is that the housing authorities and coalitions claim that there is a significant gap between the households <30% AMI or extremely low incomes and available rental units for this group. As there has been an increasing demand from the 50-80% AMI group, the claim is that this group has been taking the units that would otherwise have been available to the <30% group. Obviously this is a fabricated demand that would not exist if they logically prioritized the <30% AMI group in the first place, committing tax dollars where they are needed the most, building separate developments for this group. They state that their overriding priority is to distribute this cohort throughout the community for the sake of diversity and the exposure of the unsubsidized renters to the <30% group. This does nothing but artificially inflate the rates of the unsubsidized group to make up for the subsidized one in terms of sufficient revenue to maintain the development. The logical solution would also include cutting back the subsidized income requirement to 65% and to develop separately for the <30% cohort for a more appropriate level of cost efficiency. Below, is a comparison in terms of the distribution trend over 10 years between a state that is not very compromised, North Carolina, in this fashion and one that is, Washington state, where the taxpayer will continue to subsidize the 65-80% AMI cohort even while the extremely low income cohort continues to grow.

Washington Housing Choice Voucher Distribution

This artificial demand for the <80% AMI subsidy is the result of a globalist economic scheme to bring socialist regimes into local governance and facilitate the re-distribution of wealth across the country, thereby nullifying whatever the efforts of the Trump administration to incentivize traditional family values. The globalists continue to pay into their development and political campaigns, the local media support for the false narratives of deserving free stuff and a turn key living.

If DOGE were to investigate the abuse of the housing safety net laws of the 1970s and 1980s, I emphatically believe that they would find billions of dollars of misplaced government housing assistance. The Obama and Biden administrations did all they could to shrink the disposable income of our young people to create a huge spike in the demand for subsidized housing. This is now the desperate goal of local government housing advocates among mayors and city councils and county commissioners across the country. Now, the resultant lifestyle of deprioritizing home ownership and the accumulation of equity has woven into their culture. The lack of ambition to raise a traditional family has really become a facet of this culture. This is why they are so ripe to vote in a local socialist regime to destroy their economics. It is my fervent prayer that our children develop the spiritual maturity to intervene and stop this evil socialist economic scheme.

The Grand Recovery Theft Is Solidly Underway

What matters to the economic conservative is whether or not his salary increase will afford a reasonable increase in standard of living. The liberal economic voter cares more about whether their standard of living will approach that of the higher economic class while maintaining the same level of employment. For him, the work of a CEO should not be any more valuable than that of a blue collar worker per unit of work whether it be hours or widgets. The crucial difference between the two can be found in the messaging that they receive from both political factions.

If the conservatives fail to meet the liberals where their viewpoint lies, the socialist candy man candidates will win every time. The liberals believe that the economy under the control of the government should afford them a comfortable lifestyle regardless of the value of their work to society. The belief that the “rich” are merely greedy and don’t deserve their wealth, that they set prices too high and don’t pay “their fair share” of the tax burden is simply a social analgesic to the disparity in earnings. So, let’s meet them where they are.

The first question should be how did you arrive into the less than deserved lifestyle? The answer is almost always that the big corporations collude to set prices too high. The response in turn should be that if the prices were too high for too many customers, they would sell less widgets. The second question should be why are their prices that high? The answer is almost always that corporations are greedy, taking advantage of the demand for their goods and services. The explanation should be offered that for every product type, there is a cost to produce. As the manufacturers compete for customers and set prices high enough to make a sufficient profit above the cost of production, but yet low enough to attract enough customers, the industry competitors establish competitive profit margins. this indicates the range of profit that makes a company competitive in that industry.

As the global elites lose their US federal slush funds that flowed through their shadow NGOs, NPOs, and the UN, they are desperately trying to protect their state and local government sources, the paid for elected officials and their obscure welfare networks. It is the global elites that pay the professional activists. It is they that subsidize the Islamists campaigns for city council and mayor, and state legislature. They are the engineers that shape the local political landscape from town aldermen to county commissioner. This is all going on across the country. Their objective is to socialize the US and redistribute its wealth to the poorer nations, rendering our selves economic dependents of our rivals.

Their tactics have changed since President Trump came into his second term. Rather than to facilitate federal government agency operatives to expand the welfare state, they use their assets to prepare and support their chosen local candidates to reign in socialist local economies and create violent protests against the deportation of their most loyal voting bloc, the illegal migrants. They are still intending to house them and give them full local voting rights. Each bond issue produces a 5-8 year increased tax burden on the property owner. In North Carolina, the $80M bond issue of 2020 was covered in part by Biden’s American Rescue Plan to the tune of $556,224,453. With that being no longer available in 2026, local governments will tax the private sector to death and chase corporations out of the blue cities and states in order to economically enslave the renters. They will tax seniors out of their homes and into apartments and condos. They will waste no time going after single family homeowners to tax them out of their homes. Their interest is in acquiring an increasing high density voting constituency that can be secured with all kinds of expensive services like mental health, health insurance, and rent assistance, all on the increased revenue of maximized property taxes. The city councils attract developers by offering them loans at below market interest rates and federal tax credits for each subsidized unit they make possible. The legal stipulation is that the development must make 40% of the units available to families earning less than 60% of AMI or 20% of the units available to less than 50% AMI. Households earning from 50 to 80% of AMI also are being given the same living standards as those paying full rent income assistance to afford rent so that their rent does not equal more than 30% of their income. What this means is that taxpayers, in one way or another are going to subsidize housing those that make just a bit less than average more and more as this housing demand explodes. In Raleigh, the waitlist has been closed since June 6, 2025 because of the inability to match demand with existing vacancies. In North Carolina, this means that those earning $38,940 will take the same apartment with government assistance as those earning $48,300. This scheme leads to long term, if not permanent dependence on the taxpayer. They strategically place developments on the perimeter of the city and very often annex land and buildings on the adjacent county property, bringing urbanization further and further out into the rural areas, bringing subsidized units with them. This inevitably limits the wealth producing families in each locality, thereby limiting the economic growth of our towns and cities. Their ultimate plan is to grow medium sized cities into huge city centers, creating an ever increasing government dependent democrat voting bloc.

If the conservative young adults don’t act, North Carolina will become a prime example. According to the NC Home Builders Association there is a 150,900 subsidized “housing supply gap”, in both urban and rural communities, 89,479 rental units and 61,421 units for home ownership. This gap is made up of families making less than 80% of their AMI, families in homes that are in disrepair and renters that are in buildings in disrepair. The report totally excluded the homeless sector. There were, according to an HUD study, 11,626 homeless individuals, including children that were sheltered and unsheltered in 2024. With a current vacancy rate of 1% of the 67,506 tax credit or government subsidy units and a waitlist of 44,236 households, the HUD solution is for the state to move them into brand new apartment buildings, units that are affordable to the local AMI. The vacancy rate for market rate units is 6% and corresponds with 6% of the overall waitlist. Those with a 40 to 80% AMI comprise 54% of the waitlist while those with less than 40% AMI comprise 40% of the waitlist. The NC Treasurer approved in September 2025 another $80 million in bonds for Raleigh to build an additional 2,000 units in the next 2-3 years, with more and more developments along the perimeter of the city. The market rate units of these developments will also be game for conversion to subsidized units as the waitlist grows.

This is just the beginning! There will be a dangerous cycle of rising market rate rents causing inflated housing prices, causing more families below the 80% AMI category. This is the urbanization and socialization of the entire country intended by the globalist led local governments. The more it grows the harder it will be to stop. Not all families currently making less than 80% of AMI need to be moved into new market rate apartments at property owner’s expense! Many more existing homes and apartment buildings can be repaired and renovated. Less expensive homes and apartment buildings could be built specifically for subsidization. Contrary to the myth that homelessness is due to lack of housing, homelessness is due to lack of adequate and competent mental health facilities, to mandatory addiction recovery programs, and up to recently, the unchecked availability of cocaine and fentanyl. Merely housing those that have addiction and employment problems will merely spread the crime and vandalism into otherwise low crime areas. It will propel a subculture of low productivity and development among our young adults, our most precious human resource gone to waste!

A Constitutional Solution

The only absolute defense against the socialization of the US will be the property owner signature. When a large enough petition arrives on the desk of a state elected official in sufficient numbers, it will reverse the role of the property owner as the economic slave to that of the local government being a rightful fiduciary servant of the property owner. Rather than using this revenue to maintain and improve local government services so as to optimize market property values, city councils and county commissioners are using it to subsidize housing while creating powerful incentives for migrants to locate themselves in more and more expensive communities. It is now imperative for the local property owners to demand oversight of where their taxes are actually going. This means petitioning state legislators to write new oversight and transparency laws. The actual process of local government establishing subsidized housing affords the active conservative voter a few opportunities to fight the explosive pace of subsidized developments. Notice that in the schematic below, knowledge of this process affords such opportunities.

A sample petition may look like this:

Dear (senator, representative) ,

As it had been understood in the past that local governments stood for the purpose of serving in the best interest of their property owners, this is no longer the case. Their primary focus now is to facilitate the influx of permanent legal and illegal renters. Consequently now, there is a conflict of interest between our city councils, county commissioners and the responsible stewardship of our property taxes. The whole system is fashioned to create an artificial demand for subsidized housing. I tis being subsidized on the backs of property owners that will bare the resultant tax burden.

We implore you to write legislation that effectively limits the use of our taxes as collateral for financing subsidized housing. Although we certainly do not want truly incapable individuals and families to not be safely housed, we vehemently oppose the moral argument of income inequality, allowing those who simply refuse to develop comparable abilities to earn an equal lifestyle to those that do. We also implore you to write the legislation that not only discriminates by income levels but limits such housing to 60% of area median income (AMI) and is not afforded the exact same living standards as those who are unsubsidized. We are currently incentivizing too many of our young adults to become long term dependents for their housing amongst other services.

How to Break the Red/Green Wave In The US

Just as in any conflict, be it sports, politics, or military, the adversaries have become expert at exploring and exploiting our greatest vulnerability – our passive conservative subculture.

Nothing will change if we do nothing and that is exactly what the globalists and Islamists are counting on. No number of Donald J Trumps will be able to rescue this beloved country of ours if our children continue in the same vein.

They need to demand to understand how all economic systems work and the history of their applications. They need to become economists. They need to demand to understand how each system is incentivized and their historical results. They need to demand the real definition of basic terms thrown around in the media, like racism, greed, diversity, inclusivity, science, and gender, words that were redefined in the media for political purposes. Otherwise they will never smell the smoke or feel the heat about to smother their freedoms and economic opportunities.

So, where do we go from here? We invite them, we edify them for the true value they are to our country, and we arm them with the facts. There are lots of crucial facts because truth is on our side! As a result, they will have acquired 5 major weapons, those of which their conservative culture has evolved to depreciate. Our adversaries are counting on our young adults never acquiring these weapons.

Weapon #1: Fervent Prayer: comes from a place of full personal faith in Jesus Christ, of humility as a sinner, of love for your family, friends, and enemies, of sobriety in the stewardship of all blessings, including body, mind, wealth, time and opportunities for development; is done in private at a deliberate time and place;

Weapon #2: Personally Motivated Learning: Robust learning curve in God’s word, in world and American history, in economics, and in local government. They should seek a world view founded in the realities of human history, economics, human nature, and spirituality; They should seek to compile a well organized list of truths and logical arguments that are central to dismantling the myths and claims of the globalist and Islamist adversary.

Weapon #3: Audible and/or written Voice: Young conservative adults on average lack the confidence of community support in raising their voice or writing their opinions and viewpoints when the opportunity presents. They are peer pressured against raising their voice beyond their trusted social circles, against taking writing roles in their local publications. These actions require a spiritual and disciplined lifestyle. It is out of this lifestyle that the words would be compelled. Many young conservative adults are discouraged from participating in local government being told the myth that it conflicts with their reliance on Christ. If that were true, George Washington would never have assumed his role, both in the Revolutionary War and as the first president to serve while confessing Christ publicly. So many of our national Christian heroes, legal immigrants included, risked and gave their lives for this country on behalf of the rest of us. They were compelled to do this, not as a result of the lack of faith in Christ, but out of love for their fellow citizens and a strong faith in Christ!

weapon #4: Local Government Participation: voting is the ultimate weapon against these adversaries. Less than 1/5 of our young conservative population are active voters in local elections. This requires some personal investigation into vetting candidates for city council and county commissioners. They need to follow the money and understand how they are supporting the taxpayer’s best interests, mostly growing the local economy such that tax payers’ property market value is maximized’ Our young adults need to learn how to make sure that local governments are not purposely growing the local demand for subsidized housing, thereby growing a voting constituency that demands ever increasing taxpayer contributions.

weapon #5: Petition: This is one of the most powerful constitutional tools afforded every citizen to counter a runaway government sector. It is the kryptonite against the globalist end Islamist assault into American government. It is the least utilized tool on the conservative side of local elections and could prove to be the decisive tool against further incursion of socialist and Islamist candidates. As maximizing their permanently government dependent constituency is their #1 priority as with Mamdani, an organized petition against spending taxpayer money on subsidized housing and establishing further dependency on the cost of the growth of local agencies and the ever increasing demand for their services could significantly minimize the socialization of cities and surrounding towns as in the case of Lakewood, Colorado. Petitioning to remove fraudsters from office would also help do the same.

Laws regulating city councils and county commissions were written at a time when it was assumed that these elected officials would serve the interests of the property owners of their districts. Today, as a result of the lack of conservative participation in local government, the opposite is true. In fact, they are incentivized to serve the interests of a guaranteed ever increasing voting constituency. They wholeheartedly believe that they are in office to serve the dependent voters at the expense of the taxpaying voters. After indoctrinating our college students, grooming socialist candidates to become electable has become their #1 strategy in socializing our cities and outlying towns.

Petitioning is a tool that is sharpened with usage and requires organization and community support. This organization will have to begin with our existing young adult conservative community leaders. It will have to merit the support of conservative philanthropy as in Turning Point USA.

A Call To Action

We need organized petitioners who understand the need and the purpose. We need a renewed culture of strong, spiritually motivated, patriotic leadership. I propose the Patriot Petition Machine. I am compelled to begin in my own back yard and rely on God, using all the abilities I have been blessed with, to allow Him to transform our young adult conservative culture. Will you do the same?

The Real Conservative Activist

Liberal activism has run into a dead end. We know their elected officials are planted into office with elite billionaire campaign donations. Their myths about systemic racism and climate change have been debunked. Their fraudulent slush funds have been disclosed. Their fake protests have been exposed. Their weaponization of the federal government has been factually disclosed to the public. It appears that swaying public opinion through deception has not worked the way it was intended.

Whereas liberal activism has relied on emotional and dramatic public display, conservative activism has been working mostly behind the scenes – until Charley Kirk. The conservative voice has been confined to one large mainstream news outlet and a scattering of blogs and YouTube channels. Although this has worked to sway public opinion on the national level, in contrast to our liberal friends, we have been absolutely benign on the local level. This is why we have such a prominent regression into socialism amongst our idealistic young adults. The Columbia University cohort, when asked why they voted for this economic system by enlarge responded that it was time to try “something new”, a total admission of the ignorance of world history and the irrelevance of current economic systems around the world. An immature world view will always be vulnerable to the candy man politician promising undeliverable goods for the license to control their lives and eventually impoverish their community.

Conservatives have never been good at public messaging. There is a belief that actions and results speak louder than words. That’s true when the results are shortcoming and easy to recognize. Today, it is very easy for a well intentioned young adult to become disillusioned as life’s expectations have not been realized. There is no seemingly credible source that readily, rationally and succinctly explains the conservative values and priorities. As the conservative voice is almost totally focused on the national level, it has been the liberals who have remained current with local politics. If President Trump had not won the election, this country would be totally unrecognizable within a few years. There would be a huge surge in families at the level of poverty in subsidized housing with no hope of improving their financial situation. There would be skyrocketing unemployment as the private sector is taxed to extinction. They would have succeeded in socializing the United States into severe impoverishment.

Conservative Activism Has Not Yet Begun

Real functional conservative activism is, for the most part, still nonexistent. Not until you see our young adults spontaneously gather in genuine, fervent prayer, writing and distributing petitions and referendums to their state legislators, their city councils and county boards, can you hope to make good on the opportunities the Trump administration is creating. Otherwise all that extra disposable income made available by tax cuts and wage growth will be sucked away by state and local taxes and user fees, even in the conservative states, but more so in the liberal states. They will be taxed out of their homes and into urban and suburban apartments, cheated out of the equity they would have amassed instead of making rent payments. The current explosion of subsidized housing does exactly that.

Conservative activism must be organic and begin in the local churches, schools, and yes, even the family bars! It must be led by men of strong spiritual character. As a man, when was the last time you were asked to go to such a gathering? Where is the emphasis in the conservative mainstream media to focus locally? Thought so. We have not yet begun.

Conservative activism must be organic and begin in the local churches, schools, and yes, even the family bars! It must be led by men of strong spiritual character.

Petitions must be written to create local legislation to limit property taxes and inflated property valuations so as to allow homeowners to build market value and equity in their homes. Petitions must be written to lift restrictions on religious freedom on public property. Petitions must be written to create legislation that incentivizes local private economic growth and prevents the expenditure of tax dollars that stifle economic growth. These petitions must be locally publicized. City councils and county boards exist to serve their constituents by maximizing the market value of their properties and limiting their tax liabilities. Yet, today those elected bodies are quietly doing just the opposite, largely with no public resistance or participation. Across the country, these governing bodies have very little oversight. The US Constitution intended for the citizens to be the functional oversight. Unfortunately, this has all but disappeared.

“The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the
destiny of the Republican model of Government, are
justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally staked
on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the
American people.”
— George Washington

So, how do you get started?

Here is a list of common sense steps you might take:

  1. Pray fervently in private. Then, find your most trusted conservative friend and ask for help and prayer.
  2. Research local conservative activist groups or organizations and find out what they are doing?
  3. Request financial documents from your local city and find out what they have spent taxpayer money on in the last ten years
  4. Make a table showing the median property taxes, the tax rates, and the assessed property valuations for the last ten years
  5. Make a list of the city council and county board votes impacting these numbers over the last ten years.
  6. make a graph from the table.
  7. write a sample petition as the one below.
  8. Using this information, go to your most trusted conservative friend and ask them to help you get started or to refer you to someone he or she trusts.

Here is a sample petition letter:
