More Kelo fall-out, EU in North America

The recent Supreme Court decision in the Kelo v. New London has been the subject of immense controversy. It's drawn universal criticism as far as I have been able to ascertain. Naturally, the political sides couldn't be united in their criticism with some half-wits blaming Libertarians, despite the fact that the Libertarian creed "No Force, No Fraud, No Problem" prohibits government intervention, as all government intervention carries behind it the threat of violence.
On an issue like this, people need to be united. The Right hates it, the Left hates it, Libertarians hate it. Blaming one another for the ruling makes no sense- political ideas are born of idealism, and this ruling has the scent about it of a naked power grab. We need to knock off this obnoxious and immature behaviour so that we can help those families who will be evicted. As has been pointed out by the fine folks at Strata-Sphere, the bulldozers are already rolling. Let's get together, use the decentralised organisational ability of the internet and provide those in need with the support necessary to resist this illegitimate decision.
Moving on to the second part of my title, I must confess that the EU is not about to invade North America. In fact, these people cannot even get their sole CVN to cruise over 19 knots or keep its propeller blades from spinning off at that meteoric speed. For those of you who are not Naval Affairs people, US Carriers displace nearly three times as much as the French Carrier and go twice as fast).
Instead, it's a proposal from the always progressive group of power-hungry extra-dimensional lizards we know as the Council on Foreign Relations. You can read the proposals put forth at their "Future of North America" forum right here. Those extra-dimensional lizards are certainly long-winded and love sharing their "9/11 stories" to justify their position. If you'd like the short version, here's a summary on the site of the United States Embassy to Canada. Some highlights include a "common security perimeter," "common external tariff" (sounding like the EU yet?), and a the need to "Develop a North American Border Pass with biometric identifiers." Another disturbing and very European element is the proposal to "Institutionalize the partnership" with a plethora of international organisations between the three nations in the partnership. Another touch of EU institutionalism is the "North American regulatory plan that would include "open skies and open roads" and a unified approach for protecting consumers on food, health, and the environment." It sounds a great deal like European Health and Safety Rules. Just as I was beginning to relish the ability to own a bendy banana...
In any case, this is the Tranzi plan for world unification by stages. Tranzis know that no one aside from them likes their ideas, so they have a "gradual" process. It's based on creating regional super-states. First, a free trade bloc is set up, along with a common defence infrastructure. In Europe, it was Jean Monnet's Coal and Steel Community that controlled production of vital war materials that morphed into the European Common Market. In North America, the Trade deal came first in the form of NAFTA. Now we see the proposal for a united Defence as a "common security perimeter." They have a minimum of international involvement, and represent sound thinking.
The next stage is a bit fuzzier. It involves developing a series of multi-national standards and organisations to control said standards. This would be the phase of the "European Community," and the "North American Community." It's a bit harder to swallow, but still based on keen trade-based incentives like standardisation.
The next stage is the trickiest Tranzi stunt of them all. It's the call for the unification of these various standardisation organisations into one super-organisation. They're very cautious about giving it power, because most folk will be uneasy about unification of this sort. It's mostly presented as a measure that promotes efficiency and codifies the nations relations with each other. There's no mention of this in the "North American Community" proposals, but it's likely to come in time. This would correspond roughly with the 1992 Treaty of the Maastricht in EU history, when the European Community morphed into the European Union. As I said, it wasn't terribly popular and barely passed in most nations.
The Tranzis then allow a ten year or so period for the nations to get used to the new government, and they sign a few treaties that centralise bureaucratic power in Union hands. Eventually, they reckon, everyone gets used to being governed by the Union. It's time for the final block to come into play- the Constitutional Treaty of a Federal Super-State. This is represented by the EU Constitution that has poked its head up as of late.
Despite its rejection by France and the Netherlands, the EU Constitution will still be ratified, either in whole or in parts. The ten year process of centralisation by which the Union government used its regulatory powers over certain matters to extend its reach has left the national governments incapable of taking back their authority. This is the critical time. Once it is past, the Union will either have to go on to be a super-national government or will be torn asunder by its members. Given the great love which Tranzis have for the unquestioned authority of the State, it's more likely to be the former, despite protests.
We have to fight against creeping tranzi plans to turn North America into the next European Union. There's no point in adding an additional layer of unelected and unaccountable government that ends up destroying the economy and laying waste to our liberties. Our current government is bad enough about that. Let's not see this plan come to fruition.
