I'm posting on some political topics at the main Working Together blog these days. I thought I would share that here. It's hard to post at all the WT blogs right now. :-) I hope to change this over time, but I can't make any promises right now.

Awhile back I shared something about a writing I had found on the Communist agenda to take over the world. I couldn't find it at the time so I just shared what I could remember. This week I have been sorting through more of my "piles" of papers and discovered it again. I have to just list it as text here as I don't have anything else to post yet.
====================
THE TEN PRINCIPLES OF WAR
by Mao Zedong
Attack isolated enemy forces first.
Take towns and rural areas first, take big cities later.
Wiping out the enemy's strength is the main objective, not seizing territory.
Only attack enemy forces that can be completely overcome.
Fight no battle you are not sure of winning.
Have courage in battle and no fear of sacrifice or fatigue.
Attack the enemy when he is on the move.
In cities, seize all weakly defended battlements. Wait before attacking strong enemy lines.
Use captured arms and personnel to reinforce.
Rest, train and consolidate in short intervals. The enemy should be permitted scant breathing.
====================
I had never seen anything like this. I think it was when the Communists were first starting out, becoming a power... but I am not sure. I just remembered the concept of isolating and then overcoming. I think that is what I shared before.
If we apply this to the Internet, there are very scary possibilities in our current life and in the our futures. Remember, I have searched for info that could apply to the Antichrist for most of my life. And we know that evil will rise in all kinds of ways as we get nearer to those times we read about in the Bible.
This lockdown year has been like a "trial run" to me... someone flexing their muscles to learn how to do it better next time. I would say that "isolation" has been the foundation of our lives this year.
As individual citizens, we have seen people arrested for not wearing a mask in public. What does that tell you? And why would anything like that be an arresting offence? We are forbidden to gather at church or other spaces... killing all kinds of businesses and community fellowship. It's scary. We can't see the reasoning and don't have the power to object.
The Internet is a battlefield that can kill and maim and destroy... with no way to know it has been orchestrated. Two past actions that I noted, and a possible third, speak to this danger.
Other "disasters" we have seen could easily be computer connected.
The other day I was thinking about the increasing surveillance we are experiencing and I remembered a LONG time ago finding out that California was building tracking systems into the freeways and cars are able to be tracked by that system because a unique "chip" is installed in every vehicle. That was years ago. I have no idea where that plan is now. I assume it is for "safety" purposes, like police chases. In the future it will be a tool to know every movement of every vehicle.
There a "chips" in the body now, as a "safety" measure for those who have never read the Bible and don't know about the Antichrist. Commercial payment methods are heading toward this.
It seems unrelated to the Communist writing above, but the way of war has changed. We have so many people that are hailed as examples of what to believe in, and they are focused on the ideology of Communism and Socialism... John Lennon's song, Imagine, is an example of what the theme of Communism is, but not how it exists in real life.
I was impacted by the "isolating" theme.
The entire process is more covert than a battle you see and can fight.
This is a war we don't have a way to fight... yet.
I don't know what we can do... as ordinary people. If we are isolated, there is less we can do. Gathering into groups that care for one another is what the BODY of CHRIST is all about. We may need to start getting into those groups now.
Yes, Working Together was meant to do that because of the reality of the Antichrist... before I even discovered this writing about Communism and War. Now, with mega-churches in our cities, I suppose we need to think of each church taking care of its own, or joining the bigger churches near them.
I hope you read the list of tactics over and over and then think about how it would be implemented in your life, or your community.
In Christ,

It's about 10pm where I live... as I start my post. Sometimes it can take awhile to get to the end of my sharing. :-) Not much for me to say tonight... I browsed a few posts and articles but the whole thing seems to be in limbo still.
I will say I looked at an election map, but it seems to be published by a Democrat source as they are calling everything for Biden.
I vaguely remember the Florida dispute with Gore, and something about Hilary Clinton's run, so the energy around this same issue is obvious... several election cycles now.
I had no idea, until recently, that 15 states have tried to ratify some kind of amendment to make the popular vote the final word for the future. I tried to share my own discovery that the popular vote doesn't reflect the actual attitudes of the nation... mostly, it reflect the urban areas, the big cities. That is really fraud territory... lots of votes in one small space.
I think the old history of vote manipulation, in places like Chicago and New York because of the gangs that existed then, is taking on a new process because of technology. I'm just saying that it exists, somewhere, because criminals don't just give up their territories without being killed or arrested... and I hear getting arrested doesn't stop the criminal process.
This is the world... now.
I am just one person.
Ordinary people don't have the ability to affect these kinds of things.
We are the victims of those who "want to rule the world."
America has a lot of problems to figure out if we want to continue being a strong global power. Raising taxes is not the answer. Getting our national debt down is part of the solution... it would give us some breathing room for the disasters that will come in the future, whether we have the funds for them or not.
I just don't know WHY God doesn't give me the money I need to get these things changed! :-)
It is a multi-year process to do anything related to government change. I would love to see an amendment that would permanently LIMIT the government's ability to tax its citizens. I have written about this before, but no one reads my stuff anyway, so I will say it again...
ONE TAX.
A permanently limited SALES TAX that would be set at 10% and distributed like this ::
This would eliminate ALL other taxes... including INCOME tax, ESTATE taxes, PROPERTY taxes, CAPITAL GAINS taxes, etc.
It would make taxing a fair responsibility because rich and poor would pay their share based on what they purchase. I haven't figured out how to deal with wholesale and retail taxes. This might get troublesome in rental properties and things like that, but I know the legislators will have their own ideas about that!
There wouldn't be "loop holes" and tax reductions or tax credits, etc., we would all just pay that 10% when we purchased things over the course of time.
This would also eliminate a lot of government jobs associated with taxation, which means less labor costs and other expenses. Naturally, we know the government would ease any change into place, probably over twenty years so they can keep it going a bit longer and try to find ways around it. BUT, if we think about the PRINCIPLE of taxation, it isn't meant to be an ever-increasing part of the citizen's income. I tried to think of what a fair tax amount would be for citizens, and 10% seemed fair to me - plus, it divided perfectly.
If we don't do something, the government will continue to "NEED" more and more of every citizen's money until the government is the owner of it all, and citizens begin working for the government.
After I realized the SALES TAX was the only tax that can be applied evenly to everyone, everywhere, I just began seeing all kinds of benefits to that being the ONLY TAX we pay.
In our technology, this would also allow the government to collect taxes immediately, and they can be adjusted as needed as well... like for refunds, etc.
All of this would force the government to focus on what is really needed, not creating more and more programs that cause new taxes and budget problems.
Really, taxes are meant to pay for the operations of government as it PROTECTS its citizens... military, mandated offices, and whatever else there is that can't be eliminated.
This would divide the responsibilities of the various levels of government, create the need for partnerships with BIG projects, and make a lot more decisions into local choices.
This is also a global option in our age, if someone decides to make it one.
For me, that is another step toward the Antichrist, but there really is no way to stop him from happening. We may as well see it as something that benefits us now by organizing and reducing the impact and authority of the government in our individual lives.
I have been on Welfare. I learned that any time the government is involved in providing money to you, it requires complete access to your life. By changing to a SALES TAX ONLY form of taxation, we change from an individual focus to a business focus.
The government will gain access to business records and oversight for sales activities...if it decides there is a problem. That would mean an audit of a business but no audits of personal spending.
It sounds like people will be able to become better criminals in some ways, but remember, if they sell drugs or anything illegal, and don't report the taxes, it is still a crime.
For those of us who sell online, the websites will become responsible for collecting and remitting the taxes per sale, or refund.
I haven't found a really bad part of this concept yet... for us, individual people. Businesses MIGHT not like it, but I doubt it. They will save all that other tax income, too.
Imagine your life without all the different taxes the government spreads out and collects under different umbrellas. That would be an economic stimulus in its own right.
More important to me is the PRINCIPLE involved. How much tax is enough !?! To permanently limit taxes at this point in history would be a huge change in direction and I think it would require something like a national amendment.
I would like to share one more story about our government.
When I became an official senior, my food benefits turned into a cash benefit. I also became aware that the government would be keeping a "tab" of expenses to collect after I die. I am trying to make an annual check on this "tab" but have only requested one so far. They don't send you an itemized billing, with an explanation of what the charges are and why they are considered debts to be collected. My view is that the person in charge of the estate will have no way to argue any amount that is requested. I can't even dispute a charge because they weren't defined. This is one reason I wonder if all my food benefits are now going to be debts on my estate.
I should also add that I once suggested the government provide "loans" to poor people, like me, who are trying to change their income futures, that can be paid back later on. My reason was that Welfare was never enough to live on -- it destroyed our lives every time I tried to make it better.
The loan would have to be large enough to make a real change.
It could also become an investment for the government if it, instead, took a small percentage of ownership if it is available. Again, the special number is 10% because I discovered the SEC allows investors with a ten percent ownership stake to have a seat on the Board of Directors to protect their investment.
This investment focus would also bring future income into the government if it was successful. I'm sure the government would be protecting its money with the SBA and other involvements. :-)
I'm out of steam now... I'll let you think on those suggestions and you can share your comments with me. I probably forgot some details of my plan because I haven't thought of it for awhile.
I was hoping to work on these issues with my own income, but that hasn't happened.
My hope for Trump being the President was that he would find new ways for the government to create income that are not a tax.
I have a ton of my own ideas based on my life and experiences with the government.
I guess that's all,
Until next time,
In Christ,
Deborah Martin
