Overview

"Legal Plunder is practiced extensively in our governmental systems, more so today, than any other time in the history of the world. Legal Plunder is when illegal matters are made legal by our government leaders. It is practiced in all three branches of our federal system. Frederick Bastiat was a French statesman and economist who lived in the mid 1800's. He was concerned that France was turning more and more into a socialistic nation which, he believed, would eventually translate to communism. Over a hundred years ago he wrote this book called THE LAW, from which I take many of my opinions in this treatise. According to Bastiat legal plunder is when the government takes from the ""haves"" and gives to the 'have nots."" So is ""distributing the wealth"" a right, or was the power to tax by the federal government envisioned by the Founding Fathers---and what about The Affordable Tax Act? Along with these many leaders believe that we are turning more and more of our responsibilities from local state over to the federal government. In essence, we as citizens, are encouraging the government to engage in legal plunder. I also believe that when we practice legal plunder that we are leading our nation toward socialism. Some modern day leaders believe, including myself, is that socialism is communism in disguise."

Author Information

"Bertrand J. Adams Sr.'s Tlingit name is Kadashan, who was named after his great grandfather, John Kadashan, a clan leader from Wrangell, Alaska. Adams was educated at Sheldon Jackson College and Brigham Young University. While at Sheldon Jackson he began writing short stories with the mentorship of his creative writing instructor, Nellie Ottie. Mrs. Ottie took special interest in his writing and helped him structure a short story including plot, dialogue and many elements that consist of stories. During the semester, he wrote about a dozen stories; when he finished Sheldon Jackson, he pursued other interests. One fall he married a woman who had eight children from a previous marriage, therefore his quest to finish his education and writing was interrupted for twelve years. His writing ambition was renewed when he was accepted at Brigham Young University to finish his education as an English major. It was there that he learned the real discipline of writing. He would take out his stories and rewrite, however he never had a desire to do any more with them. Following is Kadashan's account of Ms. Ottie's visit with him years later: ""Twenty years after Sheldon Jackson, I received a telephone call from Nellie Ottie. She was at a reunion at Sheldon Jackson and wanted to fly from Sitka to Yakutat and visit me. Even though I was excited about seeing her, I was puzzled as to why. She asked to see my stories and then spent the afternoon and evening reading them. After supper, we had this magnificent meeting. ""Why are you keeping these to yourself?"" she asked. I admitted that I didn't think anyone would be interested in my writings. ""None sense!"" she replied. ""You have so many messages here, and the talent to express yourself about young people, old people and animals. And your descriptions of this beautiful country and people are worth reading about."" Kadashan was, then, encouraged by this former teacher to try and find a publisher. In fact, it took him another twenty years and his rejection slips was getting thicker than his manuscripts. One day, he was thumbing through some periodicals at a news stand and saw a magazine that had the photo of a Tlingit woman wearing her clan regalia on the cover. He called her and after he described what he had written and she said she was interested in seeing some of his work. He packaged all thirteen of his stories and mailed them to her. She did not hesitate to use his stories and water color paintings to illustrate his short stories in the Alaska Native Magazine. (Today these stories and images are in his book Yaakwdaat Aya). In the meantime, he also began to research self-publishing and over a period of time, and hard work, he self-published four books; he is presently working on three more. He also maintains his own website: http: //www.amazon.com/dp/150840433X Kadashan is a retired commercial fisherman and lives in Yakutat with his wife near his family and numerous grandchildren."
