"I know no safe depositary of the ultimate powers of the society
but the people themselves; and if we think them not
enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome
discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform
their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of
abuses of constitutional power."
--Thomas Jefferson to
William C. Jarvis, 1820. ME 15:278

Article VI of the U.S. Constitution
“...The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the
Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and
judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several
States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to
support this Constitution...”

Amendment V to the U.S. Constitution (1791)
“No person shall... be deprived of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law; nor shall private property be
taken for public use, without just compensation.”

THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS IS SOON LIKELY TO APPROVE,
WITHOUT ADEQUATE PUBLIC DEBATE, RATIFICATION OF THE
UNITED NATIONS LAW OF THE SEA CONVENTION (UNCLOS), THE
LARGEST AND MOST COMPREHENSIVE INTERNATIONAL
REGULATORY TREATY EVER CONCEIVED BY MANKIND.
THE UNCLOS WILL PROVIDE THE UNITED NATIONS AND FUTURE
U.S. GOVERNMENTS WITH LEGAL JUSTIFICATION TO INVEST
THEMSELVES WITH EXPANSIVE NEW POWERS TO IMPOSE COSTLY
AND BURDENSOME NON-SCIENCE AND NON-ECONOMICS-BASED
EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS (HIDDEN TAXES)
UPON ALL AMERICANS THAT WILL SEVERELY IMPAIR THE USE &
VALUE OF THEIR PRIVATE PROPERTY.
