Yes Agenda 21, the final institutional step to assert as being normative, the right of the corp/state partnership to define the 'proper' expression of Being for every citizen.
Functionally speaking, it cannot work anyway simply because that is not how consciousness works.
As happened with the Soviets, things fall apart when there is all take and very little give.

I feel like pointing out a difference in our outlooks Iamwhomiam. You seem to let ideology do your thinking for you. For my part, I don’t give a rats ass for Harry Reid, Chinese solar power ambitions, Cowboys or this drama. You seem to see one ‘side’ as being bad, so the other must be ‘good’, or at least worth defending. I see both as having potential good but mostly, realized bad because both ‘sides’ are caught up in dichotomous thinking.
The effect of that kind of thinking is to become easy pickings to be manipulated.
Its going to be hard when you find out how thoroughly supportive your underlying ideology is for the purposes of slave makers, but hey maybe that’s some dissonance to be dealt with later.
Others however may generate the fortitude to grapple with this most unpleasant truth.
If you are one of those folk, please get to cracking, the future of humanity depends on
YOU.
Well, one thing in your favor, Sounder, is that you're consistent.
There is a vast difference in our thinking, obviously. I have a very simple moral code that's quite liberal. I do believe in right and wrong and in the power and rule of law. But I have not once alluded to, even in the most vague of terms, any support for the governments actions. Not one word!
All I've asked for is some proof to demonstrate Bundy has legal standing to occupy land he does not own, yet none has been produced. He is a thief, admittedly so, having not paid his grazing fees over the past 21 years, which now total millions of dollars.
How long would you wait to bring a legal action against a client who refused to pay the agreed upon price once you finished your work for them?
How long do you think a landlord would tolerate a a non-rent paying squatter before seeking legal redress in a court of law, the only right our constitution truly guarantees?
Another question I asked that went unanswered was:
Has anyone considered Bundy an asset, a provocateur now making news to draw out our more radical patriots?
Now to more directly address the remainder of your remarks, I will quote those I'm addressing.
This thing, to me is about clearing rural folk off the land so that corporate methodologies can be imposed on a still wider percentage of the population.
Um, Sounder, you might want to take a refresher on US history, if you think this is something new. After all, the land Bundy's occupying was once the property of Indians who had it stolen from them and not peacefully taken.
Yeah, can't wait for agenda 21 to arrive. I'll be long dead. Stupid shit keeps you distracted looking for what's to come fearfully, rather than doing anything more than complain about the world on a blog. Some of us put into action our beliefs, and my beliefs I've made know here and should be quite clear to all who have read my words over the past eight years.
I've been on the front lines seeking justice from power for 40 years and I'm a well known activist who doesn't hide behind a pseudonym, like you do. Some of us observe and criticize while others take the hard knocks, fighting for the ignorant observer's human rights.
This is just plain old insulting and ignorant, Sounder:
Its going to be hard when you find out how thoroughly supportive your underlying ideology is for the purposes of slave makers, but hey maybe that’s some dissonance to be dealt with later.
The rest of that commentary is just as unnecessarily rude, ignorant, and unworthy of further comment.
However, there's this, too:
The corp/gov state would like to thank all diligent commenters for their efforts in support of the state.
Well, they would like to thank you, but that would sort of give away the game.
Please produce anyone's comment in support of the government; I've not read one.
Oh, and thanks once again for your rigorous intuition demonstration. That Snopes article puts you into a whole new light.
By the way, how's your work going in taking down agenda 21?
But you know, Sounder, you're right about one thing.
You're still a shithead.
