Rush Limbaugh Picks On Poor Kids, Says They Should Starve At School

33. Interesting. I guess they really did codify and 'set into stone' their wishes.

Here's the complete set of guidelines engraved on the Georgia Guidestones
[font size="2" color="blue"]
1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely — improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion — faith — tradition — and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth — beauty — love — seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth — Leave room for nature — Leave room for nature.

I can understand the principles all right but given the mentality of the elite, they don't have it in them to carry this out with any sense of justice. It's merely the wet dream of despots and tyrants. It begs the question, just who is it that gets to decide!

Anybody who attempted to carry out a plan to bring this into fruition would carry into their paradise with them the selfishness, greed and hubris that fuels their inspiration. They will not escape from their own hell.

Liberal/Progressive ideology provides a much more sane approach to the problems these people are attempting to address. Consider all the work we have done over the past century involving:

1. Education
2. Health care
3. Economic regulations and tax fairness.
4. Human rights.
5. Animal rights.
5. Democracy in the workplace as well as politics.
6. Environmental protections and regulations.
7. Clean alternative energy sources
etc...

The Liberal world view does hold an alternative to the masked draconian measures eluded to in this elite 'Guidestone'. The vulnerability of the liberal viewpoint, however, is that it doesn't provide quick, easy solutions and has been undermined too easily by its detractors. Case in point - Rush Limbaugh. From our perspective he's an absolute crackpot. He would be utterly marginalized by a liberal system of values as would any right-winger. Therefore, they fight against every one of these initiatives regardless of what good it would do them. And they are doing a bang-up job of making a mess of everything in the process. If they really believed in the Georgia Guidestone principles, they ought to consider well that the ends never justify the means.
