This book is for citizens who are concerned about our morally degenerating society. The authors point out that God condemns big government and commands His people to be productive. The only way we can control our communities within each sovereign state is to regain the constitutional right of nullification.
Argues that the South was within its rights to secede and is still treated like a conquered land
From the authors of The South was Right! comes a new edition of what one historian calls one of the most important and original histories of the Southern people. Punished with Poverty tells the unvarnished story of the intentional policy of economic devastation and exploitation of the South which has affected all Southerners, both black and white, long after the close of the "Civil War" and "Reconstruction." In fact, the sad legacy of these punitive policies continues to this very day. The over-arching theme of Southern history is not Race, as is conventionally stated, but Poverty-poverty not due to the South's shortcomings, but imposed on them by the system under which they live.Punished with Poverty is a timely and much needed contribution to the understanding of both the South and the nature of the "Federal Empire" under which all Americans now live.
Jefferson Davis was a proponent of the high road to emancipation. He looked to the day in which slaves would be prepared to live within and participate in a democratic society. He did more than advocate for the high road to emancipation—as this book documents, he practiced his belief in the ultimate emancipation of Southern slaves. Many of his former slaves left for posterity their testimony about their former master—a master who prepared them for freedom as self-sustaining members of society.The North’s ruling elites justified their invasion, conquest, and occupation of the Confederate States of America by declaring that the South was fighting to preserve slavery and that secession was treason. After the unfortunate end of the War for Southern Independence, the United States arrested President Jefferson Davis on charges of treason. Davis demanded a trial, yet the United States never brought Davis to trial—why? Were they afraid they would lose in court? Davis, and through him the South, was unjustly tried in the court of public opinion—a court controlled by the North’s ruling elites.This book gives the defense that Davis and the South never had.
It was a time when many in the South were celebrating the centennial of the "Civil War." Schools across the South made special efforts to teach lessons about the "War." Southern States celebrated the heroism of its Confederate soldiers and in 1959 the last Confederate veteran died. President Eisenhower, Chairman of the Civil War Centennial Commission, noted the death as an occasion for national mourning. Confederate flags, tags and bumper stickers were common sights across Dixie. It was also a time when many in the South were making strides toward a color-blind society, a society where people would be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. It was a time when the Dixie Division was a part of the U.S. Army. A unit that proudly displayed its Confederate heritage. A time when the Confederate flag was proudly associated with Southern patriotism and fidelity to the U.S.A.; the country that had invaded and destroyed our Southern homeland.It was a time very much unlike our own.It was a time when rebel was cool!
AMERICA'S NEO-MARXISTS WHO CONTROL the political and social establishment understand that well-armed. Americans will not tolerate their leftist tyranny. They understand that before they can force average Americans to accept their perverted social and political vision, they must first disarm us! America's Founding Fathers understood the value of arms in the hands of free men. They knew that the first step a tyrant must take to turn free men into political slaves is to disarm them. They secured the right to keep and bear arms by enacting the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment was not enacted to allow country boys to go squirrel hunting! It was enacted to allow free men to defend themselves against tyrants. Unfortunately, too many gun-rights activist do not understand that no part of the Constitution, including the Second Amendment, is self-enforcing. Without a strong political mechanism to enforce the limitations on federal powers inscribed in the Constitution, the Constitution become a mere paper barricade. Nullifying Federal and State Gun Control: A How-To Guide for Gun Owners provides gun-rights advocates with a means to protect your rights under the Constitution. This book demonstrates the only way "We the people" can enforce our rights and liberties under the Constitution.
The book addresses the perceived erosion of America's Christian heritage, attributing it to a secular, neo-Marxist influence that began with the 1963 Supreme Court ruling against prayer in schools. It serves as a rallying cry for Christians, particularly in the Bible Belt, to reclaim traditional moral values and restore the nation’s identity as a "nation under God." The author, James Ronald Kennedy, is a seasoned writer and speaker with a strong background in health law and a commitment to conservative Christian principles.
