FLAHR in, the name of a gold coin first made in Florence in the 1200's. The name comes from the Latin word for flower. The florin bore the imprint of a lily on one side, and the figure of Saint John the Baptist on the other side. The first English florin was issued as a six-shilling gold coin in the reign of Edward III (1327-1377). A Silver English florin worth two shillings was first coined in 1849.

Notice the timing? The Unions are needed to take up the slack!

Most "Battles" are fought today in the "Courtroom"; and the little people are winning.
But, here comes the But----------
It takes "Money". Where is the accumulated "Money"? The Middle Class.
The Power Addicts don't like to lose. So, they must relieve us of our money to keep us on the dependency rut; keep us from gaining any chance of moving up to the middle class; and take away the Middle Class chance of winning future Court Cases.
{1} Make a Mandatory Health Care Insurance contribution to their Big Money Cronies (Masons/Knight Templars).
{2} Make a Mandatory Retirement Plan contribution.
{3} And of course the age old method, Tax and Regulation Permits/Fees. And, Social Security/ Medicare/Medicaid.
They are already spending our Social Security contributions,Medicare Medicaid/Welfare.
What is to keep them from spending our Retirement Plan Contributions also?
Take away our right to Have Our Day In Court!

Trans-Pacific Partnership And Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Secret Deal And Congress's Agreed Fast Track Without The American Public's Awareness

Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP.
“Fast track” authority for the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a sweeping free-trade agreement the Obama administration is ready to push through Congress.The TPP is the first part of a two-ocean globalist plan the Obama administration is working quietly to put into place. The aim is to follow up the passage of the TPP with the finalization of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership between the United States and the European Union.
As Obama announced in his 2013 State of the Union Address the plan to add the trans-Pacific free-trade agreement to the trans-Atlantic agreement already in place.
Republicans in the House are preparing to follow the lead of the White House and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to rubber-stamp the TPP, the most sweeping free-trade agreement since NAFTA.
Critics charge the Obama administration negotiated it in secret and is now trying to rush it through Congress before the American public finds out how the trade measure compromises U.S. sovereignty.
With Boehner’s decision to support Obama on TPP, the Republican Party appears ready to ignore concerns raised by GOP conservatives and various tea-party groups that the 12-nation deal further undermines U.S. sovereignty.
The opponents argue it places major sectors of the U.S. economy under a new dispute-regulation mechanism that takes precedence over U.S. judges and courts.
“Fast-track” authority would allow the Obama administration to ram the TPP through Congress with a simple majority vote. The rules would limit debate so that no amendments could be introduced to modify the language of the agreement the Obama administration has negotiated behind closed doors.
12 nations involved in the TPP are Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, Vietnam and the United States.
U.S. participation in NAFTA and in the World Trade Organization, have resulted in the loss of millions of high-salary U.S. jobs to nations with less expensive job markets.
Will this TPP agreement blindside the U.S. economy to further drive the American People into poverty, to sweep away the 'Middle Class'?

Respecting. THE KEY WORD Of Congress's Law Making; Or In This Case, Not Making.

Are The Courts Turning A Blind Eye To, The Congress Shall Make No Law Respecting An Establishment Of Religion, Or Prohibiting The FREE Exercise Thereof?
Legal argument seems to boil down to two points: 1) Opposing forced coverage of abortion pills isn’t a legitimate religious belief; and 2) our pro-abortion agenda is far more important than your silly religious beliefs anyway.
The government can tell us what is and is not an important part of our faith and further that what we consider to be a sin is far too attenuated to actually be real sin in God’s eyes is the moment we have lost our religious liberty.
DOJ attempted to convince the court that forcing Catholic nuns to pay for abortion pills in no way violated their faith because all they had to do was sign a form and let someone else violate their faith for them.
But, But - They are not Authorized to sign anything.
And, Can The Courts Amend The Constitution?
As George Washington Said :
"If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."
Are The Power Addicts trying to destroy our Government?
I have a Pen and A Phone to Do What I Want - To Hell With Congress!
George Washington also said:
"It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism."

It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
