their ankles , and other weapons on their persons , and there was a 95 percent failure rate .”
Essentially , terrorist paranoia is working exactly per the Dept . of Homeland Security ’ s design — otherwise ordinary Americans are now guilty , simply by being present . Guilty of being non-white . Guilty of speaking a language other than English . Guilty of math . Guilty of possession of cheese spread .
But most of all , guilty under the system that would rather pit neighbor against neighbor — lest those neighbors realize they have more in common with one another than with the powers claiming to have their security in mind — because that realization might bring anger , dissent , and potentially action to topple those powers-that-be .
And this lack of the ability to travel freely — the basic right to mobility without restriction — is only one highly specific example of coercion as the new norm . Entire books could be justifiably penned to discuss the ridiculousness of licensing requirements — summarized briefly as the state taking a right away from you in order to give it back to you at an often red-tape-heavy price . In the dystopic new millennium , the State requires children to seek permitting for such traditional activities as shoveling snow or setting up their own lemonade stands — and alarmingly have been shut down for failing to do so .
You don ’ t even have to be accused , much less charged , with a crime to have your own property and cash seized — or more accurately , stolen — by the State , which it then may use for whatever shady purpose it chooses . This unchecked policing-for-profit scheme has created a freakishly telling figure , as described by The Free Thought Project , “ law enforcement in America has stolen $ 600,000,000 more from Americans than actual criminal burglars .”
Freedom to simply live one ’ s life , without harming another , has been co-opted by a State hell bent on maintaining slavish control of its people .
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH

And entirely different dystopic restrictions on travel — harkening almost exactly to the 1930s Nazi Germany that so influenced Orwell — can be found in police checkpoints . Of dubious legality , law enforcement checkpoints for everything from drunk driving to heroin — to seatbelts — have become commonplace around the U . S . In the name of safety , police bottleneck traffic , test sobriety , search cars , write revenue-generating tickets , and even arrest those found ‘ guilty ’ or who try to avoid the trap .
Considering at least one of the aforementioned examples would be sufficiently blood-boiling to even those who consider themselves ‘ law-abiding ’ or ‘ patriotic ,’ the State also has in place multiple strategies to thwart the dissemination of accurate , truthful information — thus preemptively quashing dissent . State indoctrination begins early with compulsory schooling beating the victor ’ s history into impressionable , young minds . William Blum , journalist , author , and CIA and U . S . foreign policy critic , describes in his book , America ’ s Deadliest Export : Democracy — The Truth About US Foreign Policy and Everything Else , how indoctrination has so insidiously usurped education as to be imperceptible to the unaware [ emphasis added ]:
