Workforce Investment Act works toward a planned economy. S975 works toward planned communities. Our planners today are very reminiscent of the Soviet Union. Their planners failed miserably to create a utopia. Their planners killed millions of people implementing the plan.

Free people no more, Americans must placate the central planners before doing anything! How has this come to pass? How can it be stopped?

How has this come to pass? How can it be stopped?

Attack, attack, attack.

Make it uncomfortable to be a planner. Let them know that at everyone of their meetings you and a group of like-minded citizens will be there with your charts, graphs, cartoons and copies of the Constitution.

Mock planners and planning at every opportunity. Point out that it is planners that got us where we are now and they have the gall (as all bureaucrats do) to now tell us that they can solve our problems if only they have more money, power and control.

In fact, deny there is a problem and repeat it and hammer it home. It's a nonexistant problem.

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." -H. L. Mencken
