...if you aren't, then you better get in gear because that's where we are headed. First the League of Nations, then the UN. Later the European Union, and recently the effort to create the North American Union. Why are people quick to acknowledge the reality of corruption, yet they refuse to believe that our leaders are actively selling off our national (and, consequently, our individual) sovereignty?

For those who suggest that I didn't ask a question, I don't know how you justify the accusation. I feel that I was pretty direct.
For those of you who demand details and facts, you do know what the UN is, right? You do know what the European Union is, right?
Also, I am astonished that I got at least one response that was like, "eh, whatever. I don't care either way."
Do you people care about the Constitution at all? Do you understand that globalization and de-sovereignization is costing us the very tenets and privileges that were once afforded us by the Constitution?

Because anyone who doesn't march in lockstep with whatever BS the government is selling is automatically labeled as a conspiracy theorist and outcast.
In addition, they have finally completely the next step into making this happen by the dumbing down of our country. Look at the educational standards now compared to just 50 years ago.
People are too dumb to think about what is going on and also too busy trying to make ends meet to keep up with it all.

Since Reagan, the country has been deteriorating. No one, seems to be willing to do anything about it. Sovereignty in the historical sense of a country was lost in the U.S. under Woodrow Wilison around 1914 when he sold the country to the privately owned corporation called the "Federal Reserve". Kennedy was the last U.S. President to try and regain the U.S.'s sovereignty and they put his head on a 50 cent piece they minted just to let the next guy know what would happen to him if he messed with the money.
It would be nice to have been able to show my children what it ment to be an "American" back before Reagan ruined the country. I miss American, too bad it's gone.

you forgot the "what's bad about these things" part...
the EU has really flourished... the Euro is beating the dollar up....
I mean, you could say we ALL gave away some of our state sovereignty when we joined the United States... or our county sovereignty, when we joined a state... sovereignty is this buzz word people love to throw around... yet rarely define the threats...
as far as I am concerned... it's an issue by issue basis... and if it's good for Americas and America... I don't care if we join some world gathering... and we can pull out as easy as we enter... and if they have a problem... we can take it "outside" if you will
now.... I don't really like the idea of a North American Union personally... so I would be opposed to that... not because of some idea of sovereignty though... just because I don't think it would be best for America... NAFTA has already taken many jobs and this would only further open the flood gates...

What does a person have?
Our family. The definition of family is trying to change too much for my taste. Not to count divorces, etc.
Our health.......well.....Our water and air quality is poor.
Our Jobs...sailing across the ocean blue.
Our money. Only been receiving about half of what it should be for many a year...notice the slowness of raises any any form.
Our land , ports and businesses are being sold continuely.
Our religion is being attacked.
Our babies aborted.
Our morals in a cathouse
Only a glimpse of our culture is left.
You can see we don't seem to have rights anymore by looking at the illegal immigration issue.
My country.....I'm willing to live and die for her.
Lord God help us.

a number of of treaties pass against the shape. Technically, it fairly is unconstitutional for the U.S. to belong to NAFTA, the WTO, the United countries, and so on.. some thing to think of roughly, international regulation says international waters are only around 12 miles off the coast of any u . s . a .. The U.S. honors that regulation whilst different countries do no longer. countries from international huge fish in waters only 12 miles off of our coasts however the U.S. would not do a similar to different countries.

The problem is radical alarmists such as your assertions. The League of Nations died on its own, the UN is an ineffective joke, and the EU is a rather shaky economic alliance. None of these threatened the sovereignty of any member state.
The problem with crying "Conspiracy!" with every alliance is that when the real threat comes, no one will hear you.
