A brief bit of history concerning the posting on the "Liberty in the Breach" blog - 1 views

    The content for the Liberty in the Breach (http://goo.gl/AAFJ9) blog is posted directly from a Diigo.com group called "Socialism and the End of the American Dream". So yes, this groups bookmarking efforts are public.

    The way this works is easy for anyone to to do, and I encourage everyone to make use of blog and RSS posts. The Diigo bookmark service enables groups of people to share tagged and categorized lists of bookmarks, but the only way to take these group collaborations truly public is through the blog and RSS posting mechanisms. There are also select sharing methods.

    Each Group of bookmarks and comments can have any number of "Lists". A list is a subset of a group, but it can stand on it's own or serve many groups. The difference is that Groups have members and lists do not.

    The effect of this separation is that you can publish or RSS any list to a Web Site or Reader, and not be concerned about errant group membership comments and posts. Fortunately we not encountered that problem with the End of the American Dream group.

    The "Socialism and the End of the American Dream" group contains two prominent "lists": Banksters and USA-Constitution. There are other lists, but over time these two became dominant.

    I started the "Socialism and the End of the American Dream" group in August of 2008 as part of my research and attempt to understand the financial collapse of 2008. What I found was quite chilling, and has nothing to do with "Socialism" or it's many forms.

    I came to understand that socialism in it's many forms (liberalism, Progressivism, Marxism, Naziism, and Communism), is used the same as conservatism and corporate facism by a wealthy globalist elite to seize the instruments and resources of government for their own purposes.

    So yeah, if I had the chance to rename to group, I would not have singled out socialist as "the" enemy. It's far more complex than that.

    The thing socialism, neo conservatism and corporate fascism all have in common is big, powerful government at the expense of individual liberty.

    The globalist elites bounce us back and forth between war and social equality, building debt, spending money - much of which ends up in their pockets or is used to keep in line and keep in office their associates.

    The enemy of these globalist elites is the USA Constitution, and the fundamental concept of individual liberty as being sacrosanct and sovereign over governments and society.

    I started out a very confused Reagan Conservative and am now a libertarian through and through. It's been quite the journey but you can find most it documented at "Socialism and the End of the American Dream".

    Hope that helps. And thanks to all those who asked :)
