The Homeland Security Company Benefits from Recent Legislation
Americans Lose Freedoms from Facist Public Policies that Emulate Hitler’s, but Generate Profits for the Homeland Security Company.
The Homeland Security Company is one of the contractors of the Department of Homeland Security or DHS.
The DHS has a $52 billion budget for 2009 and is undoubtedly one of the biggest-spending cabinet agencies in the U.S. Government.
It was created in 2002 by the Homeland Security Act which consolidated a number of U.S. government entities into the DHS such as: the Border Patrol, Immigration and Naturalization, Customs, the Coast Guard, FEMA, the Transportation Security Agency and others.
The consolidation of these agencies was the largest single government reorganization since that which followed the National Security Act of 1947.
The resulting DHS now claims jurisdiction over all international travel and other activities occurring within 100 miles of a U.S. border.
Considering the fact that most of the largest urban areas in the U.S. fall within this distance, now approximately two-thirds of the U.S. population live within the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security.
The DHS implements its projects using a long list of contractors, and one such contractor, the Homeland Security Company, was started in 2001 in Tennessee (before the DHS was even created) to offer its services to the future Department of Homeland Security.

Parallels with Hitler
It is a matter of historical record that Adolf Hitler, in order to further his rise to dictatorial power in Germany prior to WWII, had an agent of his burn down the Reichstag – then Germany’s capitol building.
In the panicked aftermath of this high-profile disaster, Hitler was able to ram the Enabling Act or the “Law for Terminating the Suffering of the People and Nation” through Germany’s congress to give him sweeping powers.
The results were disastrous for Germany and the world.
Well, the U.S. version of this strategy began with the 9/11 disaster, which George W. Bush used to pass the Patriot Act and the Homeland Security Act of 2002 that profited corporations like the Homeland Security Company.
Together, these nefarious acts infringed upon many important U.S. Constitutional rights.
Furthermore, the legislations were written so ambiguously that just about any U.S. citizen could be considered a potential terrorist and be imprisoned, held and even tortured without due process and without any evidence of a crime being produced.
This effectively eliminated the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure, not to mention the Miranda rights.
Under the authority of these acts, citizens can now be detained simply upon the suspicion of them being involved in or having the intention of being involved in some activity that could in future be considered terrorist activity.
Given the vagueness of these Orwellian thought-crime-style criteria, just about any person in the U.S. could now be considered a future terrorist, giving their government the ability to lock them up and torture them at anytime for any reason.
As a direct result of this panic-driven legislative travesty, the U.S. has quickly morphed into a quasi-totalitarian state, supported by the same corporate/political cabal that assassinated John F. Kennedy and which continues to hold power to this day.
U.S. voters are never even given a chance to elect someone who is not in line with that cabal’s fascist designs for the country.
As a result, U.S. politics have been effectively transformed into a single-party system, which only superficially pretends to be a democracy and actually has much more in common with Nazi Germany than those involved will publicly admit.
Oh, and don’t forget the handsome profits for corporations like the Homeland Security Company!
New Technology Drives Surveillance
Furthermore, as we progress into the DHS-run 21st century, advancements in technology are increasingly being used for surveillance.
So, as privacy and personal freedoms becomes more and more conditional, Big Brother is indeed now watching you.
Of course, spy satellites and wire taps have been around for years.
However, new surveillance cameras and roadblocks are now going up around the U.S., allegedly to make sure that motorists are obeying traffic lights, wearing seatbelts or not driving drunk.
The obvious underlying agenda is that of the government and its police force increasing their ability to snoop into U.S. citizens’ privacy.
While you still can, try to remember how the world was before 9/11, The Patriot Act, the Department of Homeland Security and before the Homeland Security Company ever existed.
Ask yourself some questions: why has the world changed so dramatically and why are normal U.S. citizens living in fear?
Has anyone you know even met a terrorist? Why on Earth should U.S. citizens be giving away their precious constitutional rights just to be protected against very rare and possibly even imaginary foes?
Why should U.S. taxes go toward fighting very real and dirty wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that will create many, many very real and very upset foes?
Has the country gone mad, or are most Americans just amazingly stupid?
Sadly, while there might be a thousand points of light among them, the other 230 million-odd Americans seem pretty dim if they are not deeply upset about what is going on with the erosion of their rights and freedoms by the Department of Homeland Security and the Patriot Act.
