Factory owners: Federal prisoners stealing our business

Emily Jane Fox

August 14, 2012

Just hearing the word Unicor is enough to make Kurt Wilson see red.

Unicor is a government-run enterprise that employs over 13,000 inmates — at wages as low as 23 cents an hour — to make goods for the Pentagon and other federal agencies.

[...]

Wilson has been competing with Unicor for 20 years. He’s an executive at American Apparel Inc., an Alabama company that makes military uniforms. (It is not affiliated with the international retailer of the same name.) He has gone head-to-head with Unicor on just about every product his company makes — and said he has laid off 150 people over the years as a result.

“We pay employees $9 on average,” Wilson said. “They get full medical insurance, 401(k) plans and paid vacation. Yet we’re competing against a federal program that doesn’t pay any of that.”

MORE reason why the Ruling Class wants to make 'criminals' out of every single one of us: more CopperTops for their Corporatist Plantations.

Huh? Here I thought the 'caring' liberals wanted 'living-wage' minimum wage laws, across the board, except when they don't. As usual, UNICOR is another vestige of FDR's fascist 'progressive' New Deal programs.

And the following is why RINOs remain in power:

In Olive Hill, Ky., apparel factory Ashland Sales and Service, Co. has been making windbreakers for the Air Force for 14 years, says Michael Mansh, who runs the factory. Last February, when he learned that Unicor was eyeing the contract, he reached out to Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell.

McConnell, one of the top Republicans on Capitol Hill, issued a public statement urging Unicor to back off. The next day, it did.

NEWS: Paul Festival is officially changing its name!

Daily Paul Liberty Forum

They are now called P.A.U.L. Festival which stands for "People Awakening and Uniting for Liberty"

http://www.ronpaultribune.com/index.php/more/contributors-ar...

"We love Ron Paul, he is the inspiration for the Festival.

We would give anything to have him speak or visit the Festival. For whatever reason he has decided against it. We did not seek his approval, or ask him to sanction this event, we just DID IT.

Being the LIBERTARIAN MINDED PEOPLE we are, we did not ask for permission.

We are grassroots activists, not concert promoters, nor are we part of the (broken) GOP machinery.

Dr. Paul called us PERSONALLY a while back, thanked us, and wished our event success. But he found it necessary to hold his own event in which he had complete control of. This is understandable, and we accept that, and have gone to great lengths to work it into our program.

Peter Schiff, Lew Rockwell, Gary Johnson, Tom Woods, Adam Kokesh and others who are the heart of the R3VOLUTION and stalwart Libertarians, not only are going to speak, they all, down to the last man DONATED their time. For that, we thank all of those who have gone to such great lengths to help us put together the MOST PROLIFIC ALL STAR line-up the R3VOLUTION has ever seen.

We have SO MANY liberty bands and freedom loving entertainers, a virtual who is who of our new, young movement.

We are not Republicans.

WE ARE THE FUTURE.

For all the naysayers, saboteurs and haters, get over it. P.A.U.L. Festival IS HAPPENING!

It will be the moment we wean ourselves and become FREE AND INDEPENDENT as we continue to be active and work towards instilling the libertarian values Dr. Paul has espoused. But more than anything
else... one thing has become PLAINLY obvious to us, there is no political solution to the problems that are dragging America through the dirt. The only solution is a change in how we think.

So get your tickets NOW and come to P.A.U.L. Festival - Rock with us, laugh with us, remember with us, cry with us, but most of all celebrate OUR future with us.

P.A.U.L. Festival

People Awakening and Uniting for Liberty

Be there."

SHOCKER: Frightened Commissars DELETE the Death Penalty portion from Coinage Act of 1792 Wiki Entry!

Here is Dr. Ronald Ernest Paul discussing what the penalty for violation of the Coinage Act of 1792 was, live on national TV:

1792 Coinage Act - Death Penalty For Counterfeiting

Uploaded by RunToGoldDotCom on Apr 3, 2011

Coinage Act Of 1792

************************************************** *******
Apparently, 'someone' is very, very, very worried...
But, the statists simply cannot erase documented history:

Penalty on debasing the coins.
Section 19.
And be it further enacted, That if any of the gold or silver coins which shall be struck or coined at the said mint shall be debased or made worse as to the proportion of fine gold or fine silver therein contained, or shall be of less weight or value than the same ought to be pursuant to the directions of this act, through the default or with the connivance of any of the officers or persons who shall be employed at the said mint, for the purpose of profit or gain, or otherwise with a fraudulent intent, and if any of the said officers or persons shall embezzle any of the metals which shall at any time be committed to their charge for the purpose of being coined, or any of the coins which shall be struck or coined at the said mint, every such officer or person who shall commit any or either of the said offences, shall be deemed guilty of felony, and shall suffer death..

Though try, as they might; apparently, some statist commissar turd noticed that the 'peons' were getting uppity, because apparently someone actually got scared enough of what the said 'uppity peons' may do, or perhaps worried that the pissed off citizenry may call for a return of the appropriate punishment for debasing currency, that SOMEONE apparently

ERASED the penalty portion of it, from Wikipedia!

I should know, because I referenced that link many times!

As the above Constitution.org link clearly verifies to be the same, it used to read, as follows:

Quality control measures were implemented in that from each separate mass of gold or silver used to produce coins, three coins were set aside by the treasurer. Each year on the last Monday in July, under the inspection of the Chief Justice, the Secretary and Comptroller of the Treasury, the Secretary of State, and the Attorney General, the coins were to be assayed and if the coins did not meet established standards, the officers were disqualified from office. Further, specified in section 19, the penalty for fraud or embezzlement by officers or employees of the mint, or of debasing or making the currency to "be of less weight or value" was death.

Now, it reads as:

Quality control measures were implemented in that from each separate mass of gold or silver used to produce coins, three coins were set aside by the treasurer. Each year on the last Monday in July, under the inspection of the Chief Justice, the Secretary and Comptroller of the Treasury, the Secretary of State, and the Attorney General, the coins were to be assayed and if the coins did not meet established standards, the officers were disqualified from office. The meetings later became formalized as the United States Assay Commission.

LOL!!!!

Talk about a telling zeitgeist! Think it's safe to say that they know that we know what they know.o)

************************************************** *****

UPDATE: Wow, that was quick; apparently someone noticed, and fixed it, back to listing the death penalty section!

Courtesy of TomJefferson! Thanks for the heads up.

Now, it reads as follows, again:

Quality control measures were implemented in that from each separate mass of gold or silver used to produce coins, three coins were set aside by the treasurer. Each year on the last Monday in July, under the inspection of the Chief Justice, the Secretary and Comptroller of the Treasury, the Secretary of State, and the Attorney General, the coins were to be assayed and if the coins did not meet established standards, the officers were disqualified from office.

Ooh those sneaky statist Keynesian rascals!

RNC ‘Committee on Challenges’ ignores the will of Massachusetts voters. MA Liberty Caucus Objects!

Submitted by sawx75 on Tue, 08/14/2012 - 22:39
Ron Paul 2012
Massachusetts

On August 10th, the RNC’s ‘Committee on Contests’, chaired by Mike Duncan, former RNC Chairman and National Committeeman for Kentucky, released their recommendation and upheld “Romney for President, Inc.” decision to ignore the caucus results and uphold the transparent manipulation of arcane rules to decertify sixteen duly elected delegates. Today, August 14th, the Massachusetts decertified delegates filed a Notice of Intent to Object with the RNC prior to the 5PM deadline, and look forward to an impartial hearing in Tampa prior to the convention.

The duly elected, and now decertified delegates are very disappointed that the RNC and Team Romney have rejected yet another opportunity to unify the Republican Party and energize the rank and file grassroots activists needed for the 2012 General Election.

These sixteen duly elected Liberty delegates wanted to participate in the Republican National Convention to promote three platform issues, specifically Auditing the Federal Reserve Bank, Requiring Congressional Declaration of War for Funding Wars, and Protecting Internet Freedom.

This flagrant violation of the foundation of American Democracy has not killed the spirit of Liberty, but rather strengthened the resolve of activists to continue to reform the Massachusetts Republican Party, by actively supporting the removal of leadership that undermines fair elections, promotes cronyism, and whose policy positions clearly infringe on personal liberty. One example of the lack of liberty in the current state Republican Party Leadership is the recent endorsement by Republican State House Minority Leader Bradley Jones of ‘price controls’ on health care that every small government Republican should be opposed.
The tactical purge of duly elected delegates by the Romney Campaign’s top attorney, Benjamin Ginsberg, sends a clear message that grassroots activists are not welcome to participate in Romney’s Presidential Campaign. The grassroots activists that organized, worked hard, and campaigned to elect those decertified delegates can take a hint, and while committed to defeating President Barack Obama and his policies that promote poverty, not prosperity, moving forward, will pledge their time, talent, and treasure towards supporting local candidates.
