The post Secession Airplane Banner Flying Over Merrimack Valley Saturday appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>Notable events since 2021 include:
This Saturday, an airplane banner could be added to that list. The tentative plan is for the banner to fly over Nashua, Manchester, and Concord. If you look up while in one of these cities, you just might be able to snap a photo or record a video of the banner. We encourage our readers to post their photos to social media with the tags #NHexit, #secession, and #NHpolitics.
Additionally, the question of secession will be asked by another highly reputable pollster. The University of New Hampshire is currently conducting a political survey that includes multiple questions related to New Hampshire independence. The results could be published within days or a few weeks.

]]>The post New Hampshire Survey Shows Disdain For DC, Support For Independence appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>According to an overwhelming number of respondents, the people of the United States are getting more and more divided over important issues like LGBT rights, guns, abortion, election integrity, race relations, involvement in foreign wars, climate change, immigration, and so on (91%). Nearly as many fear that if this trend continues, it will lead to increases in political violence (89%).
Large majorities of respondents agreed that the federal government doesn’t have their best interests in mind (67%); that it violates their rights more than it protects those rights (65%); that it produces laws, regulations, and court rulings that are incompatible with New Hampshire’s culture of freedom (63%); and that its financial decisions and economic regulations hurt our livelihoods, and could lead to inflation and bankruptcy (77%).
In short, 63% of respondents feel that their state can be trusted more than the federal government.
One possible way forward would be for New Hampshire to begin ignoring federal laws and regulations regarding matters reserved to the States by the 10th Amendment. Fewer than half of respondents believe that the federal government should be able to force New Hampshire to follow federal mandates and laws regarding cannabis (27%), medicine (37%), public health (42%), education (41%), welfare (42%, firearms (42%), businesses (38%), and abortion (33%).
This approach, also referred to as ‘nullification’ is common, currently being utilized by dozens of states, and is consistent with the recent enactment of New Hampshire HB 1178, ‘prohibiting the state from enforcing any federal statute, regulation, or Presidential Executive Order that restricts or regulates the right of the people to keep and bear arms’.
However, a more comprehensive way forward would be for New Hampshire to reclaim its sovereignty, peacefully separating from the federal government to govern itself as an independent country, an idea that was supported by 29% of respondents and 52% of Republicans. Only 58% of respondents do not support immediate and full secession from the federal government today. More than 2/5 of respondents agreed that the state should be able to do this without securing permission from the federal government (43%). And only 3% of respondents would support the use of military force by the federal government to interfere with such a separation.
Again, while politicians declined to put the question to the people, more than 2/5 of respondents support the idea of placing independence on the ballot (42%) while only 47% currently oppose it.
History is filled with proposals that seemed at first to be politically impossible, but after serious discussion and evolving circumstances, proved to be politically inevitable. To take just one example, shall-issue laws for concealed carry licenses, once viewed as extreme, are now the law in nearly every state. As the results of this poll show, peaceful separation already has more support now than shall-issue laws had in 1990. Today, not only is shall-issue the norm, but 25 states allow their residents to carry concealed guns without even requiring a permit. If New Hampshire independence follows a similar path, it may only be a few short years away from broad adoption.
The survey also found strong support for independence and extreme discontent with DC politicians among all 8 states polled. In Texas, 90% of Republicans recently endorsed putting secession on the ballot, officially placing the position in their platform. California progressives have a strong independence movement of their own, and surveys show that around half of Californians support or are open to independence from the union. Progressives in Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington also support independence. States like South Carolina, Florida, and many other states have new independence movements that are rapidly growing, as well.

]]>The post Twelve Benefits to New Hampshire Independence appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>Originally published on The Liberty Block, the following is a guest post by Alu Axleman, which represents the personal opinions of the author, and not necessarily that of the Foundation.
Currently, the state of New Hampshire has no general income tax or sales tax. The average property tax for a home is around $5,000 in New Hampshire. In addition to property taxes, the average worker might pay roughly $1,000 in sales taxes per year on food and other small expenditures. Comparatively, the average New Hampshire worker may have around $15,000 stolen from them each year by the federal government via ‘income taxes’. Federal gas taxes, federal payroll taxes, and all of the other federal taxes, could push that figure well above $30,000 or even $40,000 annually. If New Hampshire left the union, workers could expect to save $15,000-$40,000 per year right off the bat. What could you do with that kind of money each year? Help your aging parents? Upgrade your home or car? Buy those firearms (and ammo and accessories) you’ve been longing for? Take your loved ones on a vacation?
Considering New Hampshire has no restrictions on firearms, accessories, or ammunition (yes, it’s almost as if ‘anarchy’ isn’t as dangerous as your public school teacher made it out to be), all of the many gun laws that Granite Staters are forced to obey only come from D.C. Once New Hampshire secedes, all of those unconstitutional, illegal, immoral, ineffective, anti-freedom laws disappear. Get ready to enjoy fully automatic guns, suppressors, SBRs, and anything else you can imagine, and forget about ever needing to fill out NICS forms, tax stamps, or any other type of permission slip from politicians before obtaining firearms! Imagine – you could shoulder a brace and sell a short shotgun without worrying about the ATF killing you.
One of the many ways that politicians and ‘law enforcement’ officials in New Hampshire terrorize, control, extort, and abuse us is by utilizing federal ‘grants‘ to obtain tools that make tyranny much more effective. Among such tools are the BEARcats and other military vehicles that police in New Hampshire have been given by the U.S. government. The U.S. government also gives money to law enforcement agencies in New Hampshire and many other states for the express purpose of establishing suspicionless sobriety checkpoints. Most recently, the Portsmouth police were given seven new drones by the federal government. Remaining in the ‘Socialist Authoritarian State of America’ also allows federal agents to establish immigration checkpoints anywhere they desire in New Hampshire whenever they want to. As with sobriety checkpoints, these suspicionless searches violate natural rights to freedom and privacy and violate the U.S. and N.H. Constitutional protections of those rights. These illegal checkpoints all go away once we leave the union. While police in New Hampshire should do the right thing and refuse the federal (read: taxpayer) money, wouldn’t you love to see that temptation be removed?
The U.S. government extorts money from individuals and uses $70 billion each year to mandate exactly how nearly every child must be taught. The Federal Department of Education is perhaps the biggest contributor to the decline in the academic success, economic success, culture, and freedom in the U.S. since its establishment in 1980. Parents in New Hampshire are currently part of the small number of parents in the U.S. who can still legally educate their own children. Within the coming years, the U.S. government will make it 100% mandatory that every child attend a government-operated school. Once that happens, do you want to be part of the U.S. or do you want to have the ability to ignore the ridiculous law that would be irrelevant to your sovereign nation?
The U.S. government currently allows the Federal Reserve to control monetary policy via complicated maneuvers, which include setting the interest rates that apply to the US government and nearly all banks in the U.S. The Federal Reserve’s board members are appointed by the president, but they enjoy the privilege of functioning as a ‘non-governmental’ entity, which allows them to be nearly 100% unaccountable to voters. The Federal Reserve may be the biggest reason that the U.S. is currently $22 trillion in debt. The Federal Reserve and the U.S. government also oppose alternative/competing currencies. Being that New Hampshire is the cryptocurrency capital of the U.S., it is inevitable that the U.S. government will begin to attack New Hampshire for allowing its people to use the currency of their choice.
Within a year, New Hampshire citizens will be forced by the U.S. government to obtain a national ID card if they wish to continue to fly domestically without a passport. Within a few more years, everyone in the U.S. will be forced by D.C. politicians to obtain a ‘REAL ID‘, regardless of whether they want to use airplanes. While such a federal law might seem benign to some, nationalizing yet another significant institution would be one more large step towards the politicians’ goal: A singular American state.
Millions of people – perhaps billions of people throughout the world, believe that peace and an end to perpetual war is the most important issue facing humanity. Tulsi Gabbard is the most popular candidate on the Democratic side in the U.S., and among many Americans, largely because she loudly condemns the culture of perpetual foreign interventionism. I used to support the military and all it does abroad; however I am beginning to consider that maybe some foreign people do resent Americans because ‘our’ (read: the politicians’) military has been occupying their land and abusing them for decades. If the U.S. military maintains a presence in 185 countries, maybe we’ve gone too far. If we have been fighting the ‘war on terror‘ against a few primitive terrorists in the Middle East for 20 years with few signs of winning or slowing down, maybe the U.S. politicians don’t really have an interest in winning. As George Orwell famously said, “The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous.” As a sovereign nation, we could choose to have a truly defensive military and we would be free to create our own alliances.
Between the NSA, CIA, FBI, and hundreds of other federal agencies, the U.S. government conducts massive amounts of illegal spying on innocent individuals. Over the past few years, Americans have largely realized that the government is a serious threat to our privacy. Americans have lost a ton of faith in these once-respected agencies. Do you enjoy being forced to pay politicians and their agents to spy on you and other innocent civilians? If not, you should support New Hampshire secession.
While nearly everyone in the United States strongly condemns civil asset forfeiture once they learn what it is, few people know that it is a federal program. If not for the U.S. government, it would not exist. Civil asset forfeiture is the federal law which allows government agents to extra-judicially confiscate any property (money, drugs, guns, cars, houses, etc.) from people who have not been convicted of any crime. A person could have his property stolen by government agents without even being charged with a crime. When a Texas state senator proposed a bill that would require a person to be convicted before police could steal his property, President Trump and Sheriff Harold Eavenson openly discussed whether to ‘destroy his career‘. The U.S. government justifies this blatant theft by arguing that if any type of property may be connected to a crime in the past, present, or future, law enforcement should be able to seize it as soon as possible in order to prevent the suspect from committing additional crimes with the property. The U.S. government extended permission to state and local police to participate in this program – as long as they share their spoils with the Feds. They call it ‘equitable sharing’. Cops have utilized this tyrannical law to confiscate houses on the grounds that the homeowner’s teenage grandson may have once sold a bit of cannabis to a friend on the property. Police regularly use ‘civil asset forfeiture’ to steal whatever they desire, from drugs, to guns, to cars.
As is the case with many federal agencies, the IRS can use its power to target its political enemies. Under President Obama, the IRS unfairly targeted conservative groups. The abuse was so severe that even Obama’s IRS director admitted to it. As social media, technology, government surveillance, and data collection of individuals in the U.S. increase, it would seem entirely realistic that the IRS could target individuals as well as groups with unfair scrutiny and punishments. Do you want to remain in the union when the Warren-Castro administration directs the IRS to target pro-freedom individuals like yourself? I sure as hell don’t.
A thriving, prosperous economy is the most important priority to many individuals. Those who have engaged in any type of business understand that the best thing for a society’s economy is lack of government restrictions. It’s the reason that our economy quickly became the best in the world. It’s the reason that New Hampshire’s economy is infinitely better than New York’s. It’s the reason that Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Switzerland, Australia, Ireland, and Japan, are booming while North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela struggle.
President Obama utilized the mass hysteria caused by global warming propaganda to pass 4,000 new environmental laws. The EPA is only one example of politicians using regulations to destroy economies. When constituents become too prosperous, they threaten the government due to their increasing independence, weaponry, and overall influence. Therefore, politicians often seek to worsen economies and then swoop in and ‘save the day’ with yet another taxpayer-funded welfare program. Obama’s damage to the U.S. economy was so severe that the number of Americans requiring food stamps (ultra-poor) increased from 34 million to 44 million during his presidency. Politicians love having an excuse to increase welfare programs. It makes them appear very generous.
Regulations imposed by the FDA harm the economy and our health. Run by politicians and their cronies, the FDA regularly chooses winners and losers in the health and pharmaceutical industries. Many people remain unaware that the FDA was likely the primary reason for the massive EpiPen scandal of 2016. Due to their corrupt, strict requirements, it takes an average of 2.5 billion dollars and 12 years to bring a new medication to the market. This is not the case in other countries. No wonder companies have to charge a fortune for their medications! And we are forced to pay $4 billion every year to fund the agency.
Politicians since the inception of the US have passed seemingly infinite amounts of restrictions, each of which makes the economy more difficult to navigate. Now that politicians have illegally appointed unaccountable bureaucrats to do the dirty work for them, regulations are being created more than ever before. Depending on the estimate, federal regulations on businesses cost Americans around $2 trillion every year. Once New Hampshire separates from D.C., our economy – which is currently the best in the U.S. – would certainly improve dramatically.
While it’s probably impossible to calculate exactly how much time and money New Hampshire’s passionate liberty activists spend on federal issues and candidates, we are certain that it’s significant. Every two years, pro-freedom activists in New Hampshire spend a lot of time and money on the state’s two U.S. House races. They always come up short, but even if they were successful in electing the ‘better’ congressional candidate, the U.S. Congress would remain largely unchanged. Even if New Hampshire could miraculously elect two Massies, the U.S. House would still be controlled by around 430 authoritarian socialists. The same goes for the U.S. Senate races and presidential elections.
Unfortunately, many activists in New Hampshire do not yet understand the multiple reasons that federal politics is a lost cause. If you think that New Hampshire’s domestic politics is teeter-tottering right now between good and evil (Democrats do win roughly half of the state’s elections) imagine how much better the state would be once we formally separate from D.C. Those millions of man-hours and the millions of dollars wasted by great liberty activists would begin to be used only on elections that occur inside of New Hampshire, like the race for governor, state house, state senate, executive council, and local races. The anti-freedom voters and politicians would begin losing so badly that they might deport themselves from New Hampshire to anti-freedom states like Massachusetts.
Any individual who lives in New Hampshire and values freedom and prosperity or who distrusts the politicians from D.C. should support the notion of New Hampshire governing itself. Such a declaration would free this great state from the control of people like Trump, Clinton, Obama, Bush, McConnell, Pelosi, Schumer, and the like. Leaving the union would also improve the quality of life for New Hampshire’s residents in nearly every way. Citizens of a sovereign New Hampshire would enjoy keeping thousands more dollars of their own income each year. They would enjoy defending themselves without any federal infringements on their self-defense tools and accessories. New Hampshire would thrive once free from the trillions of dollars worth of economic regulations established by D.C. politicians. If you want to be free from the corrupt central government that spends trillions on foreign interventions, forces you to pay for the massive amounts of welfare programs and unconstitutional agencies, and makes you a criminal for buying a firearm, talk to your legislator about New Hampshire independence today!

]]>The post DC elites guilty: $21 trillion of undocumented spending appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>Obviously, we’ve all heard myriad stories of DC corruption, fraud, and waste before. The Department of Homeland Security signed contracts that contained $34 billion of significant waste, fraud, and abuse. An absurd level of fraud in the healthcare industry costs American taxpayers $60 billion/year. Another $90 billion/year of taxpayer money gets taken from you and given to politically connected, private companies in the form of corporate welfare. Washington used $2.6 million of your money to train prostitutes in China to not drink too much alcohol while working.
DC elites have also been caught abusing taxpayer-funded credit cards. One audit revealed that about half of all purchases on government credit cards are improper, fraudulent, or embezzled. The report found that DC elites used your money to gamble, pay their mortgages, and to buy alcohol, lingerie, iPods, Xboxes, jewelry, Internet dating services, and Hawaiian vacations.
The list goes on and on. In Washington DC, the corruption never ends.
However, even by the standards of those who wade in the swamp, the following story is so shocking, it’s difficult for most people to comprehend.
Forbes recently uncovered perhaps the most egregious example of how little DC elites value your tax dollars. They simply don’t care about you or your money at all.
The numbers are truly unbelievable. According to the government’s own public records:
$21 trillion in unsupported adjustments [i.e. “undocumented spending”] have been reported for the Department of Defense and the Department of Housing and Urban Development for the years 1998-2015.
That’s right. These journalists took at look at documents from only two departments and found a staggering $21 trillion in undocumented spending. Checks were cut with no evidence of why they were written in the first place.
What’s their explanation? The government report concludes it was because of The Pentagon’s “failure to correct system deficiencies”.
Have you ever worked in Accounts Payable?
Every year, many employers hire outside auditors to check the work of every individual in the accounting department. This is what any responsible, multi-million dollar business would do.
With each and every check that is cut, Accounts Payable Managers know every “i” has to be dotted and every “t” crossed. If the auditors catch even the slightest mistake, the work of the A.P. Manager is called into question.
Would the US military survive an exhaustive, annual audit like I personally went through for six years? Absolutely not. Clearly, their accounting department has been engaging in rampant, year-after-year corruption gone wild.
A comprehensive, transparent audit would reveal fraud on a massive scale, never seen before. The use of ghost vendors or ghost employees are two examples of techniques used by criminal employees in private businesses and governments. I’d suspect there are likely thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands of ghost vendors and ghost employees used by the US military.
Undocumented spending is only one indication of their corruption. From maintaining unused buildings, to extravagant office parties, and everything in between. They spend as much of your money as they want. They know they’ll get away with it. They’ve been doing this for decades, some would say centuries.
The cold, hard truth is that DC elites will never stop victimizing you. If your tax dollars can go to DC, they’ll gladly prey upon you. Consequently, they will never start caring about you. They never have and never will. DC elites only care about themselves and, by extension, their friends. Don’t look for anything to change.
After Forbes started finding those reports, do you know what DC bureaucrats did? They removed the reports from their website. When investigative journalists started finding out how bad things were, they ran from the sunlight and hid their crimes in the darkness.
There is only one solution to the multitude of problems DC elites have created. I’m not going to lie to you. I’m not going to tell you to write your Representative or Senator. We both know that’s not going to do anything. They will not listen to you. They’ve never listened to you.
The only solution for Granite Staters is New Hampshire independence. A complete, total, peaceful divorce from an incredibly abusive city that forgot about you long ago – Washington DC.
If you agree, join our email list, do something on our Get Involved page, and contact us to do more. Support NH independence – the only rational reaction to the extreme, unapologetic, never-ending corruption of DC elites.

]]>The post Debasing the currency – penny now costs 1.82 cents to make; nickel 6.6 cents appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>A recent Coin News article goes into detail:
It’s costing more to make U.S. coins for circulation. Unit costs climbed for every denomination, the United States Mint disclosed in its 2017 Annual Report, and the cost of making cents and nickels remained above their face values for a twelfth year in a row.
It now costs DC 1.82 cents to make a penny and 6.6 cents to make a nickel. It costs more than their face value to mint these coins. Over the past 12 years, the federal government has lost a total of $895 million minting pennies and nickels.
If they know they’re losing money, why don’t The Feds simply discontinue pennies and nickels?
The three main reasons: corruption, sentimentality, and a lack of motivation.
Corruption is DC’s middle name. Pennies and nickels are made from zinc, nickel, and copper. The politicians who have zinc, nickel, and copper mines in their districts receive donations from the corporations who benefit from having contracts with the US Mint. I’m sure you can fill in the rest of that story. Americans know about DC corruption all too well.
On to sentimentality. When most of us see a penny or a nickel on the ground, we’d rather kick it or just walk right past it. However, some people have a deep heartfelt connection to those devalued pieces of metal.
More than anything, DC politicians and bureaucrats have absolutely no motivation to save taxpayer money. It’s not their money they’re wasting, after all. They can pay for the loses by raising taxes, borrowing money, or debasing the currency.
I’m sure most of our readers are way ahead of me on this one. The Federal Reserve System has been debasing the currency since its inception in 1913. Dollars are more
accurately know as Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs). They have lost 96% of their value since The Fed was created. That means an item purchased for $1 in 1913 would cost $25.15 in today’s devalued money.
US currency laws state that FRNs are “legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues”. This makes it very difficult for businesses and local governments to get away from using FRNs.
How can NH be released from this debased currency? One way is New Hampshire independence. As soon as NH is a sovereign territory, she no longer has to be abused by a city that stopped caring about her long ago. DC and all of their corruption and legal tender laws will be a thing of the past.
If you feel the same, please join us. There are many ways you can help. A peaceful declaration of independence awaits in NH’s future, without the need to use devalued currency.

]]>The post Study: FDA is responsible for up to 73 million deaths since 2005 appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>According to the FDA, around 862,000 people have died because of FDA-approved drugs, vaccines, and devices since 2005. However, also according to the FDA, their statistics are definitely far from accurate.
A former FDA Commissioner even admitted to underreporting numbers by as much as 100 fold!
The Alliance for Natural Health USA has cataloged a vast amount of research on the subject of underreporting:
According to the research above, only 1%-20% of serious adverse events are actually reported. The math? The FDA is responsible for as many as 73 million deaths since 2005.
To be sure, the true number of dead is likely substantially less than 73 million. However, the number of deaths that FDA-approved drugs, vaccines, and devices have caused is astronomically higher than most Americans would ever imagine.
A personal, human element can sometimes be lost when looking at statistics of large numbers of dead people. What do these statistics look like at the individual level? At least one powerful story of suffering that the FDA is responsible for made it to the big screen.
Normally, Hollywood is more than ready to shower the federal government with praise. They’ve done their bidding for decades. Not this time.
You may have seen Dallas Buyers Club. It’s an emotional, critically acclaimed film staring Matthew McConaughey. It was based the true story of Ron Woodroof, an AIDS patient.
Woodroof contracted the virus from either intravenous drugs or unprotected sex. One day, doctors finally tested him. They told him he was dying. The doctors put him on FDA-approved drugs. He started dying faster. At 5’11”, McConaughey got down to around 143 pounds to play the staring role.
Through much research, Woodroof discovered a non-FDA-approved drug that extended – and in some cases, saved – the lives of AIDS patients. He started taking the incredibly helpful, unapproved drugs himself. Then, he started selling them to others who were suffering. He was able to help a lot of people.
The FDA harassed, sued, and eventually shut down Woodroof. They even resorted to stealing his property.
Shortly before Woodroof died, the FDA finally let him legally take the drug they’d spent seven years trying to suppress.
The FDA prevents terminal patients from getting helpful drugs, botches food safety, helps to increase the price of drugs, and creates chaos and confusion in the marketplace of medicine.
The FDA is responsible for part of the culture of corruption that has engulfed Washington DC for over a century. Good people like Ron Woodroof have valiantly tried to fight back. Occasionally, a lone DC politician will stand up and try to reform the behemoth agency. Like an animal fighting for its survival, the FDA smothers reform efforts with lobbyists, lies, and propaganda.
There is only one way the people of NH will ever be rid of this entity that continues to harm so many: a peaceful declaration of independence. Full autonomy and a non-violent separation from the criminals of DC is the only answer.
If you agree, please join us. There are many ways you can help. Please, start today. Because tomorrow is not guaranteed, as millions have already learned at the hands of the federal government of the United States.

]]>The post How the American independence movement will drastically reduce the worldwide refugee population appeared first on Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
]]>“an unprecedented 65.6 million people were uprooted from their homes by conflict and persecution at the end of 2016.”
While most people in America are safe and sound, much of the world has been in turmoil for years.
It seems there is no shortage of people who want to complain about the European refugee crisis and argue about how to solve it. Should Europe allow more refugees in? Should they close their doors and start deporting existing refugees? Or something in between?
There is one question most politicians, bureaucrats, and those in the mainstream media are not willing to ask.
To be sure, there are many causes. Economic hardship, political instability, and human rights violations, such as religious persecution, are among the many roots of displacement around the world.
However, there is one more source. The entirely avoidable, most destructive cause of them all – war.
Let’s take a look at some numbers.
Perhaps the most intense year of the European refugee crisis was 2015. The information in the graph to the right should come as no surprise to anyone.
As you can see, the top three countries of origin for European refugees have all been under attack from the United States military for years. Additionally, in the case of Iraq, relentless sanctions in the 1990’s led to the deaths of 500,000 children.
Number four on the list is Kosovo. The US military bombed them, primarily, from 1998-1999. To this day, there’s still about 7,000 US troops in Kosovo, and don’t expect that base to be closed anytime soon.
The people of number six, Pakistan, have been attacked by the US military and its mercenaries since at least 2005.
The people of Iran, number nine on the list, have been the victims of incredibly cruel, severe, and completely unnecessary US sanctions since 1979. Experts agree, all sanctions are an act of war. As a result, foreign banks are not even allowed to do any business whatsoever in Iran. The heartless sanctions have helped to cripple Iran’s economy and caused people to flee Iran for decades.
In recent years, the United States government has also been attacking the people of Egypt, Libya, and Somalia.
Becoming a refugee has become the only way for some to escape the wrath of the United States.
Wanton, unforgiving aggression has also been on display in Yemen. The Obama administration drastically escalated this aggressive policy. The US government has helped generate two million displaced Yemenis – a truly massive, government-caused humanitarian crisis.
Of course, a complete catalog of those harmed by the Unites States government would go on for days.
However, US aggression is nothing new. Long ago, a two-time, medal of honor-winning, military General shed some light on the military industrial complex.
Bribing, sanctioning, and bombing has been the US government’s policy for more than a century. Today, authoritarian control freaks are constantly working in overdrive to protect their insatiable reach and power.
Protests, elections, and heroic journalism haven’t been able to stop the American empire. Anti-war proponents have tried it all. Or have they?
There is one strategy for peace that many people have been courageously working towards for a long time in this country – state independence.
After a US state declares their independence from Washington DC, their people will no longer be sending their taxes to an organization bent on violent world domination. With each state declaration of independence, DC’s empire will be forced to retreat little by little. Until one day, it will be no more.
Independence movements are alive and well in Alaska, Vermont, and Texas. In California, a pro-independence ballot initiative is currently underway. That effort could lead to complete independence from Washington DC as soon as 2019!
Let’s not leave out our home state of New Hampshire! In 2012, our tax-deductible, educational nonprofit was born – the Foundation for New Hampshire Independence.
Indeed, peace is only one of the many reasons to support NH independence. Prosperity is another. Did you know that an independent NH would be included amongst the wealthiest countries in the world? Number 12, in fact!
We understand that some of our readers have questions about the benefits of NH becoming independent from DC and what that would mean for them. That’s why we created a special page for those concerned.
Together, with your support, we can help bring about a more peaceful world. If you’d like to reduce the harm and violence around the globe, please consider the many ways you can get involved with our Foundation, including making a tax-deductible donation to our work.
Thanks so much for your support. Peace.
