Tom Sipos of Hudson Valley Focus interviewed me this morning on WKIP Poughkeepsie talk radio. The topic was Agenda 21. Tom asked that I post some links to educational material concerning Agenda 21. Incredibly, there are people who believe that Agenda 21 is a conspiracy theory. As I mentioned on the air, that claim is the conspiracy theory. Agenda 21 is as real as you and me.
I will be taped on Hudson Valley Focus radio* tomorrow at 10, to be aired on a future date and time. The host, Tom Sipos, sent me the following video. The topic is Agenda 21.

Note that the World Wildlife Fund and William J. Clinton Foundation come at the end. Economic regulation almost always serves the needs of big business at the expense of small. Public choice theory outlines why. The oppression of small farms by Agenda 21-driven Democrats and Republicrats works like many other cases of regulation, including securities, transportation, and of course, the Federal Reserve Bank.
