Succession and Continuity


America's Greatest Challenge:
Succession and Continuity
written by Joseph S. Bayana
 
"America's Greatest Challenge: Succession and Continuity" tackles a wide array of significant issues facing an American-led civilization.
 
But it's not about Social Security, health care, the economy, or putting the right people in the right place, at the right time.
 
It's not about a runaway comet, polar reversal, or biological warfare. It's not even a nuclear bomb, a rogue state, or bearded men wishing the downfall of the biggest and greatest economy in human history.
 
This book is about how each and every generation must ensure that the hand-over processes take place, or risk the vaunted start of the breakdown. It reminds us of the responsibilities and leadership of each and every American, by explaining how and why our decisions can make or break history’s most successful experiment in democracy and capitalism.

Poverty is a Choice:
How and Why Millions
Turn Their Backs on the American Dream
Written by Joseph S. Bayana
 
In 2001 National Public Radio, The Kaiser Family Foundation, and the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University collaborated on a research study to determine the causes of poverty in America.
 
Their survey came out with the following:
 
-- 48% say “the poor are not doing enough to help themselves out of poverty.”
 
-- 45% say “that circumstances beyond their control cause them to be poor.”
 
In 2006, there were 36.5 million poor people in America.
 
This means that more than 10 million Americans, with the exception of persons under the age of 18, senior citizens, and the mentally- and physically handicapped, are "not doing enough to help themselves out of poverty."
 
The #1 cause of poverty in America -- drug abuse.
 
This is a wake-up call. We are not giving an encompassing declaration, and we certainly do not hope to make hasty generalizations or non-sequitur arguments.
 
We do not lay claim that our arguments are absolute.
 
This is an attempt to explain what most academics cannot, or do not wish to, explain. These are statements most politicians refuse to say in public, and what most Americans can’t say out loud because they’ll be accused of being heartless. We are not trying to be nice. We are not politicians. We don’t rely on pure academic reasoning.
 
We direct our arguments to poor people who expect dole-outs as a right from other people and from the government; those who invoke their freedoms without thinking about their responsibilities to themselves and to others.
 
Everyone has the right to freedom and self-determination, but they should hold themselves accountable for the duties of education and the responsibilities of wealth accumulation.

Red Team Manual:
A Guide to the Art and Science of W. A. R. Against the USA
 
This publication is a template for Armed Forces and intelligence community personnel, security professionals, academics, independent researchers, and future generations of Americans who intend to use the accumulated knowledge of democracy and capitalism against itself in order to ultimately protect, defend and secure the United States.
 
The goal of defeating America by putting oneself in the shoes of an enemy while thinking like an American is an art. Achieving this goal by obtaining and creating the processes, means, and methods, which require a tremendous amount of empirical, rational, scientific, and technological data, is a science.
 
A Worthy Adversary Role (WAR) is taken by anyone or any group who has, or at least works to have, these capabilities.
 
 
Shipment of the Red Team Manual is free.
