Murrieta: Recycling Market Development Zone

By Douglas V. Gibbs

"The fix is in," said my fellow local activist, Ernie White.  In Temecula the vote came after only a short discussion.  At least in Murrieta it took a few hours, and at least in Murrieta there was one voice of reason.

President Obama has stated that his administration is going to tackle Climate Change, with or without Congress.  Obama's target is the coal industry, and like most liberals, he believes he can affect law through executive orders.  The Obama administration has proven time and time again that they don't recognize the constitutional concept of "Separation of Powers," and like a king, believes he can legislate from his desk without Congress, if Congress doesn't act the way he demands them to.

As Obama takes the lead in radical environmentalism, at the lower levels, in local government, his minions are doing the same - and his minions, without realizing it, are often members of any party.  They aren't democrats, or republicans, anymore.  They are bureaucrats, acting in unison with the United Nations' Agenda 21 program, mesmerized by the propaganda, and they are implementing the U.N. plan for Sustainable Development without being told to, and without that treaty ever being ratified by Congress.

What is scary about it is that they have bought into the propaganda so much that they don't even realize that they are acting as minions for Obama, leftism, and ultimately, the radical socialists of the United Nations.

Last night, in Murrieta, as citizen after citizen stepped up to the dais to voice their disapproval over Murrieta joining the growing network of cities in a Recycling Market Development Zone (RMDZ), by the responses by the council members later in the evening, it was apparent they saw any concern by the public as being some kind of loony buy-in of some crazy conspiracy theory.  Even Rick Gibbs, who, for a moment, sounded like he had a shred of sanity left in his indoctrinated brain, wound up siding with the sleazy environmental lawyers, and the worse than sleazy climate change nazis.

Harry Ramos put up a good fight, asking key questions, and carefully wording his concerns about the RMDZ's redistribution of recycling and waste.  The title of the document on the screen was "Environmental Justice," a play on language that basically bullies any dissenters into a position of being racist, or unjust.

Kelly Bennett and Randon Lane were the worst in the matter.  Randon Lane, a RINO if ever there was one, who heads up the local Republican Party, while also maintaining a position in WRCOG - something that is not a contradiction for establishment republicans, but is revolting to any conservative that recognizes the dangers of the U.N.'s plan to destroy national sovereignty through their totalitarian plan of sustainable development - said little, but refused to betray his fellow Agenda 21 conspirators.  Bennett, when she spoke, revealed that she has bought into the propaganda lock, stock and barrel.  Her questions to the staff that had researched all of the RMDZ business were leading, and made it obvious that the questions were merely a formality, for her.  She was already on board the United Nations Sustainable Development train.

WRCOG is the Western Riverside Council of Governments. The organization is working closely with the U.S. Department of Energy to get member cities in compliance (they say "voluntarily") with a Clean Cities program that includes, since 1997, moving local jurisdictions towards acquiring more than 4,500 alternative fuel vehicles, and funding numerous Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Propane, and Hydrogen stations. WRCOG also promotes programs designed to reduce energy usage, reduce water usage, and reduce all other utility usage in the name of saving money and resources - these programs are aimed at businesses, forcing them to comply through extortion-like measures that includes a drastic rise in fees and taxes in the case of non-compliance.  The organization also has programs labeled as being designed to create awareness, largely aimed at the children of the member communities.

Tyranny is always applied with the promise that it is good for the community. Darkness is always presented as light. And tyranny always goes after the children. Like Adolf Hitler said, during the rise of the Third Reich, ""When an opponent declares,'I will not come over to your side.' I calmly say, 'Your child belongs to us already…What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.'"

The RMDZ is designed to quell the individuality of the cities, and to move recycling and waste management away from the poorer areas (redistribution of fairness, hence the term "Environmental Justice"), as well as away from the rural areas.  Climate Change is more than just a worry about temperature.  The whole thing is about the belief that humans are parasites on this planet, and the goal is to move humans away from the rural areas, and pack them like sardines in the cities.  In these population centers all services will be piled up as well, so that travel between the population centers is minimized, so as to reduce the impact on our "fragile" Earth (which is not as fragile as they wish to make it out to be).  And in Murrieta, Randon Lane, Rick Gibbs, and Kelly Bennett have bought into the propaganda.  Since there are five seats, having those three convinced to ride the environmental crazy train is all that's needed.  Alan Long, who was absent, was not needed.  Harry Ramos, the only Southwest Riverside council member of any city that I know of to do this, stood against the madness, but he is alone.

I am not a fatalist, however.  In the historic words of the great philosopher, James T. Kirk, I submit to you the following wisdom:  "I don't believe in no-win scenarios."

Unless there are factors that keep me from it, I plan to run for city council in 2014 (this will be my second run), hoping to relieve Mr. Ramos of some of his burden.  If only one other person, who understands the dangers we face, one other person that embraces the Constitution, also gets on the council with me, to join Ramos, we will have a majority - and we will be able to opt out, as a city, of Agenda 21.  It may be like trying to escape the mafia. . . but it can be done.
