Mandatory ‘Big Brother’ Black Boxes In All New Cars From 2015

Written on APRIL 18, 2012 by

Infowars.com

[Provision is part of controversial MAP-21 bill expected to pass House]

A bill already passed by the Senate and set to be rubber stamped by the House would make it mandatory for all new cars in the United States to be fitted with black box data recorders from 2015 onwards.

Section 31406 of Senate Bill 1813 (known as MAP-21), calls for “Mandatory Event Data Recorders” to be installed in all new automobiles and legislates for civil penalties to be imposed against individuals for failing to do so.

“Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall revise part 563 of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, to require, beginning with model year 2015, that new passenger motor vehicles sold in the United States be equipped with an event data recorder that meets the requirements under that part,” states the bill.

Know your White House Czars #tcot

by Jim Colter
It is one thing to constantly focus on the messengers as they attempt to deliver their stream of psychological abuse, but quite another to go after more serious sources of the attacks upon our society.
But remember those responsible for pulling the stings will be found here.  A link to CFR's website. Up to now, we have only been dealing with the tentacles.  Time we move on to the controllers? ...closer to the heart of the beast. 
Jim is a retired Navy Captain who does consulting for foreign companies trying to market in the US.  He created this. The link above is most informative, but that's not all...
Now you can scroll down to see pictures and brief descriptions of some 30-odd Czars that work within Barack's Executive Branch.    All, without Congressional approval.

Goldberg: To heal government, go local

The best solution to our current mess might be disempowering the national elite and allowing more decision-making at the state and local levels.

By Jonah Goldberg

March 20, 2012

Representatives walk down the House steps to leave for the Christmas holiday on Dec. 20, 2011. "Pushing government decisions down to the lowest democratic level possible -- while protecting basic civil rights -- guarantees that more people will have a say in how they live their lives," writes Jonah Goldberg. (Michael Reynolds / EPA)

The bleating about broken government and partisanship continues. Why can't those boobs in Washington agree on anything? We're constantly told that the way to fix the country is to dethrone the left and right and empower the middle. Handing things over to these middling mincers and half-a-loafers — Americans Elect, No Labels, the "gangs" of six or 14, conservative Democrats and liberal Republicans — is supposed to be the answer to all of our problems.

U.N.'s Agenda 21 is in your community

Editor's note: Listen to this column online.

Anyone who reads Chapter 7 of Agenda 21 and then reads his local comprehensive land-use plan will immediately recognize that most of the provisions of the local land-use plan come directly from Agenda 21. More often than not, the elected officials who adopt these plans have never read Agenda 21, and many have never even heard of the U.N. document, signed by President George H.W. Bush in 1992.

The facilitators and professional planners have heard about Agenda 21, but frequently claim that the plan they are working on has nothing to do with the U.N. or Agenda 21. Don't believe it for one minute.

Gary Lawrence, former director of the Center for Sustainable Communities at the University of Washington, and chief planner for the city of Seattle, told an audience in London:

In the case of the U.S., our local authorities are engaged in planning processes consistent with LA21 [Local Agenda 21], but there is little interest in using the LA21 brand. … So, we call our processes something else, such as comprehensive planning, growth management or smart growth.

In community after community, the same scenario is repeated. The federal government, through the EPA or the Department of Commerce or the Department of Interior,offers special grants to communities for the purpose of developing a vision for a greener future and a plan to convert the vision into reality.

The Wizardry Behind Fishery Management

By Sid Preskitt FreedomAdvocatesBanner

Monday, 14 June 2004 16:00

Summary: FLORIDA -- Like Dorothy's Wizard, the main force driving the new paradigms in fishery management policy today have remained relatively hidden, cloaked in an obscure fog of distant international environmental policy meetings. It's now past time to pull back the curtain and see exactly who is back there, writes Sid Preskitt.

NOAA's Catch Shares Fisheries Debacle

By Mike Johnson

Nov. 23, 2010at-logo

Barrack Obama came to office with an agenda to fundamentally change America.  An element of his agenda is a plan, known as catch shares, to restructure the nation's fishing industry.  The author of his plan is Dr. Jane Lubchenco, the environmentalist rock star and former vice chairperson of the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF).  When it comes to the oceans, the protection of fish, and the punishment of the evil fishermen, Dr. Lubchenco is as extreme as Obama's former green jobs czar, Van Jones.

Obama, with no managerial experience himself, didn't simply make Dr. Lubchenco one of his numerous czars -- he anointed her as the head of NOAA despite her own complementary lack of managerial experience.  Effectively, Obama has given the EDF control of the $4-billion, 13,000-person government agency that oversees the national fisheries.

Obama quietly erasing borders

Dem administration advancing 'North American Union' agenda


Posted: December 15, 2010 

By Jerome R. Corsi


Acting quietly, below the radar of U.S. public opinion and without congressional approval, the Obama administration is implementing a key policy objective of the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America, or SPP, to erase the border with Mexico and Canada. clear

The administration is acting under a State Department-declared policy initiative described in a March 23 fact sheet titled "United States-Mexico Partnership: A New Border Vision."

"Mexico and the United States have a shared interest in creating a 21st century border that promotes the security and prosperity of both countries," the State Department declared. "The U.S. and Mexican governments have launched a range of initiatives that challenge the traditional view of 'hold the line' and are developing a framework for a new vision of 21st century border management."

Barack Obama's job-killing regulations--Ben Lieberman - NYPOST.com

Barack Obama's job-killing regulations--Ben Lieberman - NYPOST.com

The jobs O hates

By BEN LIEBERMAN

Last Updated: 5:00 AM, December 6, 2010

For all his talk of job creation, President Obama has targeted many occupations for extinction. Using un elected bureaucrats to implement a host of job-killing measures, his administration is generating piles of pink slips:

Oil: Even before the BP spill, Obama's Interior Department had cracked down on domestic drilling. In 2009, regulators allowed less than $1 billion in new oil and natural gas leases on federally controlled areas -- both onshore and offshore -- compared to $10 billion under President George W. Bush the year before.

Then, in response to the Gulf spill in April, Obama slowed down things even further, with a moratorium on deep-water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. That proved so unpopular that the administration officially ended it -- but it remains in force unofficially, as regulators bottle up drilling permits with red tape and delays, keeping workers idle. Most recently, Obama regulators placed the entire Atlantic and Pacific coasts off limits to drilling.

Factories: Rising regulatory burdens, energy prices and health-care costs -- Obama has left no stone unturned in making American manufacturing globally less competitive and in forcing jobs overseas.

Audubon asks state to bar Indian Street Bridge on 'conservation' land

By George Andreassi
Treasure Coast Newspapers

STUART —
Audubon of Martin County wants the Florida Communities Trust Governing Board to stop the Indian Street Bridge from being built across an unspoiled peninsula in the St. Lucie River.

The six-member board, which includes former Indian River County Commissioner Ruth Stanbridge, is set to review Audubon of Martin County’s request during a meeting starting at 2 p.m. Thursday in Tallahassee.

The FCT board could create a major stumbling block for the highly anticipated project if it rules the peninsula cannot be used for the bridge supports needed to traverse the St. Lucie River between Indian Street in Stuart and 36th Street in Palm City. The FCT board has already forced the realignment of the Green River Parkway to avoid land purchased for conservation with state assistance.
