AMERICAN ENTERPRISE MANIFESTO TRILOGY
from The American Enterprise Manifesto: My America's Vision of Peace and Nonviolence for Humanism · host Jerry Rhoads
AMERICAN ENTERPRISE MANIFESTO TRILOGIn Volume One of the AMERICAN ENTERPRISE MANIFESTO, I write about “Give me Enterprise or Give me Debt” a takeoff of Patrick Henry’s famous statement “Give me liberty or give me death”. And a working subtitle of “Give me Liquidity or Give me Debt” proposes in Chapter 10 under the U.S. bankruptcycode, a take back of the value of the dollar by refinancing America into an equity driven economy to save the American Enterprise from bankruptcy. By reorganizing our debt-based economy into an EQUITY Enterprise, as it was in the beginning, we emerge debt free. For now, as money is the focus in our regulatory nightmare with more and more infringement and new entitlements taking over the workethic, we no longer work for ourselves; we work for the Orwellian Animal Farm (Oligarch) run by 545 politicians (100 Senators, 435 Congressmen, 9 Supreme Court Justices and 1 President, with the Red and the Blue parties fighting over power not solving budget deficits nor leading us to protect our honor in the world . . . Therefore, in 1984, after rereading Orwell’s book 1984, and continually checking out the Chamber of Commerce and Federal Reserve Debt Clock in New York City ww.usdebtclock.org I began thinking about and writing about a viable third-party alternative based on the principles of Enterprise; representing the freedom of peaceful coexistence, with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all Americans. Replacing all the isms with humanism (thesynthesis of investment capital and human capital working together every day in the American enterprises) replacing the economic theory that capitalism and socialism are arch enemies and neither is considered the framework for theAmerican constitution when in fact they are the foundation for living with humanism and the American Dream.
