"We've got to ride the global-warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic policy and environmental policy."
– Tim Wirth, former member of Congress, U.S. under secretary of state for global affairs, "Science Under Siege," 1993
The unconstitutional capitalism killer, the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA), has been busy while Americans have been fighting the latest surge of illegal aliens flooding the Texas border.

It's important to know the back story of the EPA. Article I, Section 8, of the U.S. Constitution does not authorize Congress to legislate in the area of the environment; therefore, the agency is unconstitutional. All 50 states of the union have their own version of the EPA as authorized under the 10th Amendment. There is no need for a federal agency. The states can handle their own environmental needs as authorized by their legislatures.
At the Earth Summit in Rio De Janeiro, June 3-14, 1992, the Secretariat for World Order distributed a nonpublic document titled, "The Initiative for Eco-92 Earth's Charter." It reads, in part, under policies that must be implemented, as follows:
TRENDING: Proposed 'hate speech' law targets memes, online speech with prison time!
The Security Council of the U.N. will inform all nations that outmoded notions of national sovereignty will be discarded and that the Security Council has complete legal, military and economic jurisdiction in any region of the world. … The Security Council of the U.N. will take possession of all natural resources, including the watersheds and great forests, to be used and preserved for the good of the Major Nations of the Security Council.
In the late Dixie Lee Ray's book, "Environmental Overkill," one gets a full accounting of what really went on with Al Gore and his loony friends at the Rio Summit. On page 10, it states:

The objective, clearly enunciated by the leaders of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), is to bring about a change in the present system of independent nations. The future is to be world government, with central planning by the U.N. Fear of environmental crises, whether real or not, is expected to lead to compliance. If force is needed, it will be provided by a U.N. green-helmeted police force, already authorized by the Security Council.
The EPA is the flagship agency in America to carry out environmental terrorism against our people. Among the most destructive of its tentacles is the Endangered Species Act. One of the most horrific examples of this grotesque act is what happened in Klamath Falls, Oregon, in 2001 when the government shut off life-giving water to the farmers, driving them into bankruptcy. On Jan. 12, 2005, a federal judge ruled that the salmon listing that caused our ranchers and farmers to go under in Klamath Falls was illegally listed!
So few understand or even know that the Endangered Species Act is treaty-based. The ESA's history can be traced back to Executive Order 11911 issued by President Ford. It's authority is derived from the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora and the Convention on Nature Protection and Wildlife Preservation in the Western Hemisphere and three others. The EPA's website explains: "The Endangered Species Act provides a program for the conservation of threatened and endangered plants and animals and the habitats in which they are found."
As I have written so many times, whenever Congress wants to circumvent the U.S. Constitution, they do it by treaty. The Constitution simply grants no authority to the federal government to control the wildlife or fish within the states of this nation. Yet, the EPA and its ESA are getting away with destroying the lives and livelihoods of Americans every day because they don't understand the finer legal points of federal jurisdiction. According to constitutional attorney and treaty expert Larry Becraft:
Under the U.S. Constitution, Congress has the power to make criminal only four types of conduct: treason, counterfeiting, piracies and felonies on the high seas, and offenses against the laws of nations.

According to Jeri Ball, author of "The Great Communitarian Hoax":
A study released by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) noted that "Each year, literally thousands of new regulations are emitted by the EPA … and as the regulatory leviathan grows, it increasingly sucks up revenue, resources and manpower that otherwise would be invested in productive pursuits – thereby driving an increasing number of businessmen and investors offshore." This is precisely the aim of Marxist-Leninist Communists and their U.S. communitarian cohorts.
The destruction of American jobs, manufacturing, and agriculture and the eradication of the property owning middle-class have been among the highest priorities of U.S. CFR-dominated communitarian administrations and their Russian and Chinese Communist Allies. Their chief weapons of destruction have been environmental laws and regulations, heavy taxes and ruinous trade practices.
Recently, the EPA proposed a new regulation that would deny due process: "The proposed rule will allow the EPA to garnish non-Federal wages to collect delinquent non-tax debts owed the United States without first obtaining a court order [emphasis added]. In the Rules and Regulations section of this Federal Register we are approving an amendment to EPA's regulations on claims collection standards by using administrative wage garnishment as a direct final rule without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse comment, the direct final rule will go into effect and we will not take further action on this proposed rule."

Thelma Taromina, founder and chairwoman of We the People and The 9-12 Association, Inc., warns:
"The EPA has proposed a new rule that will affect each and every American. Do not think that you need to be a landowner for this to affect you! The EPA is proposing a rule that would establish the ability for the EPA to garnish wages if the EPA determines that a landowner has violated one of their regulations. What this mean is that if they determine you broke a rule, and they fine you $75,000.00 a day for each violation, they can take up to 15 percent of your income to pay for the fine.
"What is even worse is that the determination of violation will not be made by a court, or a judge. The EPA proposes that it has the right to make the determination of violation, assign the amount of the fine, and then collect that fine without any intervention by a court of law.
"Why does this matter to you? This matters because this rule will affect every rancher, farmer and homeowner in the United States. This means that if a farmer is designated as in violation of one of [the EPA's] regulations, that farmer will be fined, even if the farmer has done nothing wrong. Since no court is involved, the EPA could virtually put every farmer in this nation out of business. The same is true for ranchers, and what is worse, it is an open door for the EPA to place liens and eventually steal property from average Americans!"

This is yet another draconian regulation we the people must defeat as we did the "Know-Your-Customer" regulation under the Bank Secrecy Act proposed by the unconstitutional, privately owned "Federal" Reserve back in 1999. We flooded the feds with more than 200,000 negative comments. We must do the same with this proposed EPA regulation, but the open window for comments closes Aug. 1, 2014. The EPA should be required to obtain a court order for wage garnishment, not bypass due process and raid people's paychecks.
I urge you to make your voice heard before Aug. 1, 2014: Submit your comments by one of the methods outlined here.
