The Rise of State Capitalism

I thought this was interesting.

Here is an interview from Foreign Affairs quarterly. Foreign Affairs is published by the Council on Foreign Relations.

Here is an interview with Ian Bremmer, President of Eurasia Group.

He is answering questions submitted by readers about the rise of state capitalism and the future of the free market.

The Q and A will give you some insight into how the other side is attempting to spin state capitalism in a positive way and downplay the ramifications.

Osceola County REC Executive Board Unanimously Passes Resolution Supporting Fair and Open Primary Elections in Florida

Volusia County, Brevard County and now Osceola County.

Our own Mark Cross is on the Osceola County Republican Executive Committee and a State Committeeman.

Congrats Mark.

OSCEOLA COUNTY REPUBLICAN EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

Contacts:

State Committeeman Mark Cross 407-908-2749

State Committeewoman Sherry Goad 407-301-8931

For Immediate Release, May 22, 2009

Osceola County REC Executive Board Unanimously Passes Resolution Supporting Fair and Open Primary Elections in Florida

The Osceola County Republican Executive Committee Executive Board has unanimously passed a resolution supporting fair and open primaries in Florida. We stand adamantly opposed to the fact that Republican Party of Florida leaders, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, and the Republican National Committee are openly and actively endorsing and/or orchestrating the endorsement of one candidate over another without following Rule 8 set forth in the Republican Party of Florida Rules and Procedures.

We are also opposed to efforts that would invoke RNC Rule 11 in an effort to further that endorsement. This resolution is not about supporting any one candidate over another. It is about the fundamental principle of following the Constitution of the Republican Party of Florida and the Party’s Rules and Procedures.

As your executive board we believe in the primary process and that grassroots Republicans should pick the candidate of their choice, become engaged, and work to get that candidate elected in the primary election. We believe the healthy debate of issues and candidate vision is a fundamental right of the Florida electorate and ultimately serves to unify and strengthen our Republican Party. The Osceola County Republican Executive Committee adamantly supports fair and open primaries in the state of Florida.

######

A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING FAIR AND OPEN PRIMARY ELECTIONS IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA

WHEREAS there are open seats for the US Senate, Governor, and Cabinet for which duly qualified Florida Republican electors will vote in the 2010 primary elections;

WHEREAS the members of the Osceola County Republican Executive Committee believe it is improper to make or orchestrate endorsements by the state and/or national Republican Party, Republican Party leaders, committees or affiliated groups prior to the completion of the primary election;

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the Osceola County Republican Executive Committee:

1)       Supports fair and open primary elections in Florida and is opposed to the actions of members of State and/or National Republican Party Leadership who have endorsed and/or orchestrated the endorsement of specific candidates for statewide elected office prior to the Republican Party primary election of 2010 to determine the Republican nominees for said seats;

2)       Respectfully request that the members of State and/or National Republican Party leadership, who have endorsed and/or orchestrated the endorsement of any specific candidate for any statewide elected office, to immediately retract said endorsement and/or cease orchestrating said endorsement until such time as the Republican Party primary election to select the Republican nominee has been completed;

3)       Cautions the state and national party leadership to reserve the use of Rule 11 or other premature exclusive endorsement mechanisms to those situations in which a duly elected Republican incumbent has primary opposition from a candidate with minimal foundation, principles, and/or credentials. The open vacancy for US Senate does not meet the criteria or the intent of the endorsement rules;

4)       Hereby offers to host any public debate in an open forum to allow the statewide candidates to offer their visions for Florida and debate their viewpoints on Republican leadership for America.

Be it resolved that the Osceola County Republican Executive Committee Executive Board unanimously adopted this resolution this 17^th day of May, 2009 in support of fair and open primary election for statewide offices in the State of Florida.

Mark Cross---State Committeeman

The Iron Web (New!)

Book

"The United States is fast losing its reputation as the land of happiness and prosperity. With a sinking economy at home and rising tensions abroad, fear and discontent are boiling over. The Great American Experiment is faltering. Now a new threat suddenly arises: a domestic terrorist group calling itself “The Iron Web,” a group bent on ending America as we know it. A new President Elect eagerly awaits his inauguration and his chance to bring peace and security back to the country. A rookie federal officer finds himself face to face with the terrorists. And a young woman who knows little, and cares even less, about politics and national affairs is cast into the center of this conflict by a cruel twist of fate. A new and drastically changed America is coming. Some will not want to see it. Some will not live to see it."

News Blast - Employer's gold, silver payroll standard may bring life imprisonment?

"The Redcoats aren't coming they're already here!"

Employer's gold, silver payroll standard may bring hard time

'This is a case about money, greed and fraud'

By JOAN WHITELY
LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL

Source: http://www.infowars.com/man-faces-life-in-prison-for-paying-employees-in-gold-coins/

Robert Kahre, who owns numerous construction businesses in Las Vegas, is standing trial on 57 counts of income tax evasion, tax fraud and criminal conspiracy. If convicted on most counts, he could live out his life in prison.

But attorney William Cohan paints Kahre as an American "hero" who believes his payroll system helped keep the U.S. monetary system sound, and was also a form of legal tax avoidance.

Robert Kahre allowed but did not force workers who received their pay in gold coins,

such as this one, to immediately exchange coins for paper dollar bills.

The coin's denomination appears on its reverse side.

A self-made entrepreneur, Kahre, 48, paid his workers in gold and silver coin, and said they could go by the coins' face value -- rather than the much higher market value of their precious metal content -- for federal tax purposes. He did not withhold taxes from their wages, and he provided the same payroll system to 35 outside clients, which were other local businesses.

Judge David Ezra is presiding over the criminal trial, which began May 19 in U.S. District Court. Joining Kahre as defendants are his longtime girlfriend, a sister who works in his businesses, and a former business assistant.

Three of the four present defendants were among the nine people tried on similar charges two years ago, but no convictions resulted. In the 2007 trial, four others of the nine defendants, including Kahre's mother, were entirely acquitted. Two individuals were only partially acquitted, but dropped from the indictment that forms the basis for the trial before Ezra.

This time around, the only new defendant is Danille Cline, Kahre's girlfriend of 19 years, and the stay-at-home mother of his four children. The government claims she obstructed the Internal Revenue Service by allowing Kahre to place several homes in her name, thus attempting to conceal his assets.

Cline's former brother-in-law, Thomas Browne, also was indicted this time, for his role as broker in some of the real estate transactions, but has since reached a plea bargain. He is expected to testify against the defendants.

Armed members of several law enforcement agencies raided Robert Kahre's business locations on May 29, 2003, to obtain records used to indict and prosecute defendants for federal tax crimes.

"This is a case about money, greed and fraud." The line appeared on screen in court during the government's opening statement by Christopher Maietta, a trial lawyer from the Washington, D.C., office of the Department of Justice.

According to the government, Kahre and others concocted a fraudulent cash payroll "scheme" and then peddled it to other Las Vegas contractors. Defendants did not report to the IRS any payments made to workers, "either at the true amount or at the bogus amount, ... being the face value of the coin or coins," according to the indictment.

The now-suspended payroll service handled about $114 million over six years, according to court records. Between 17 and 25 percent of that went to Kahre or his workers; the rest went to the 35 client businesses to pay their workers, court records show.

The government did not indict most of the outside businesses or their personnel as co-conspirators with Kahre; although on May 6, Daniel McCartan of Action Concrete, which was one of Kahre's payroll clients, was finally sentenced in connection with a plea agreement reached in December 2006. McCartan received five months in prison and five months of home detention for one count of tax evasion.

Robert Kahre, a 1980 graduate of Rancho High, unsuccessfully sued the Internal Revenue Service in 2002.

Now he is on trial in federal court in Las Vegas, charged with tax evasion.

Kahre contends his workers had agreed to be independent contractors, so he did not have to withhold taxes for them. His six businesses are in the trades of painting, drywall, tiling, plumbing, heating-cooling and electrical work.

Further, the $50 gold coins and the silver dollars Kahre used for payroll are designated by Congress as legal tender, so people are entitled to value them at their stamped denominations, he also contends. Taken at face value, each defendant's annual coin income placed him below the threshold for filing a federal tax return.

Earlier cases on the question of how to value gold or silver coins have focused on collectible coins that had been pulled from circulation but still have value as property, according to the defense. Kahre used coins minted after 1985, which are allowed to circulate.

"It's not whether what Mr. Kahre did was legal under the law," defense attorney Michael Kennedy told the jury in his opening statement. "It's whether he believed what he did was legal," in the absence of explicit instructions by the IRS -- on its Web site, in its publications or in response to written correspondence from Kahre -- on how to value post-1985 gold or silver coins.

"We're not here to determine if moneys are owed," said Kennedy on behalf of his client, Lori Kahre, who had relied on her brother's tax theory. A tax mistake is different from a tax crime, so the IRS can still use administrative channels to force the defendants to pay back taxes, Kennedy has noted in the past.

A sincere, but mistaken understanding of the tax-filing process is different from adopting a "pretextual" belief system in order to dodge taxes, Ezra acknowledged in court Wednesday.

Cohan described Kahre's payroll system as a "boycott of the Federal Reserve." But when the lawyer attempted to elaborate on Kahre's view that the nation has debased its paper currency by abandoning its former gold standard, Ezra added, "We're not here to convince the jury that the ... (U.S.) monetary system belongs to an international cabal."
