The agenda....
"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.”
Adolf Hitler

Speech November 1933, quoted in The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer

    No, you're thinking of Arthur Anderson auditors. It doesn't matter though...we still don't have a federal budget. (I know, I know...it's mandated by the Constitution, but who pays any attention to that any more?)

    Held in trust by whom?

    Parents? Community? State? Federal Govt?

    A trust requires one or more trustees.

    Wrong and quite misguided. Until a child reached 18 he/she is the property of his/her parents. Whatever responsibility in their lives that they have is bestowed on them by their parents. Once the child is mentally old enough to handle their own lives they are gradually released to their own authority - and you hope to heaven you raised them well enough.

    Kids belong neither to their family nor the their communities. Kids belong to themselves and are held in trust until they can manage their own lives.

    This is not all that new of a concept in America. State and Federal Health and Human Services, along with Family Courts have long been insisting that they hold legal custody of all minor children in there respective states, and that birth parents merely have custodial rights only. I was informed of this fact by the Family Court Judge presiding over my divorcee 11 years ago.

    Remember, this is MSNBC. Both of their viewers probably agree with this.

    The left is so confident that their ideas are winning they are actually telling the truth more often. How chilling is that???
