A TALE OF FIVE CAREERS. In 1957, with a freshly minted engineering degree from the GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, the first career began in Applied Research on liquid propellant rocket engines, at the NAVAL ORDNANCE TEST STATION (NOTS) at CHINA LAKE, CALIFORNIA. Mr. Williamson designed and tested some exotic rocket engines, including the first rocket powered vehicle ( on display at the SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTE) to achieve a soft vertical landing. Of his time at NOTS, Mr. Williamson said “They let me build and test all those rocket engines and it didn’t cost me a dime. They even paid me a salary”. The second career was as Project Engineer (Mechanical), for LTV CORPORATION (the prime contractor) on a program to develop a very accurate surface to surface missile. When the missile was deployed, Mr. Williamson began a third career by establishing and operating a Suzuki Motorcycle dealership. Twenty years as Chief Engineer for a small manufacturing company, MASTER PNEUMATIC-DETROIT, Inc. was the fourth career. Designing many products and receiving several patents, Mr. Williamson retired in 1998. It wasn't all work, Mr. Williamson was an avid SCUBA diver logging over 700 dives. In the summer of 2006, he became concerned about our country’s future. No one seemed to understand the relationship between freedom and prosperity. Power hungry politicians were seducing citizens with promises of unearned wealth and security but delivering poverty and oppression. At 75, the love for America caused Mr. Williamson to start a fifth career, as the writer of “21st CENTURY COMMON SENSE”. Will this book convince you of the peril of accepting the empty promises of unearned wealth and security? Will you help save our Republic by choosing FREEDOM AND PROSPERITY or will you dismiss “21st CENTURY COMMON SENSE” as the ravings of a senile old man. YOUR CALL! |

Why would an old retired engineer decide to spend 60 freedom? the politicians on our freedom and feared that America was very close to the reversal of the Revolution which produced our freedom and the greatest economic engine the world has ever known. Something has to For years I have been be done! I had to do something! As any good engineer would do, I examined the options available to correct the problem. The option selected was to write a book that proved freedom created prosperity and tyranny destroyed prosperity and created poverty. This is not the book I started to write on September 6, 2008. I just thought the situation was bad when I started the research for “21st CENTURY COMMON SENSE”. The problem is much worse than I could ever have imagined. Just as I expected, the research proved the government meddling in the economy had stifled our economic growth and created poverty instead of prosperity. As grievous and as devastating to the economy as the “WANNABE PEERS’” actions have been, the economic consequences are not the greatest danger to the republic. Our greatest danger is the “WANNABE PEERS’” use of the bureaucracy, the Antitrust Laws and the Internal Revenue Service to punish political dissent, coerce political support from successful business persons and reward their political cronies.
monopoly on force to redistribute wealth from the producer to the politically powerful, with a few crumbs left over to buy the votes of the poverty stricken. These government initiatives have also increased the cost of all the goods and services you buy. This meddling in the economy has created a series of economic crises that have been used to justify more successful assaults on our liberty. Each success has enhanced the ability of the “WANNABE PEERS” to punish political dissent and reward their political cronies. We cannot even start to regain our freedom and prosperity until the use of government force to punish political dissent and reward their political cronies is ended. Severe economic crises converted some of the ailing democracies of the 20th CENTURY into dictatorships. If the current proposals (CAP AND TRADE and the HEALTH CARE CONTROL PLAN) are implemented, a severe economic crisis will result that will make the Great Depression of the 1930’s seem like the "GOOD OLD DAYS". What will be result of such an economic crisis? The American Revolution will be history and KING GEORGE III will have the last laugh! |

| The "Common Sense" books A SUMMARY |
1. Freedom creates prosperity
Five of the tyrant’s “showcase programs”, some over 100 years old, are analyzed in detail to show how these programs have produced poverty and despair. The analysis also shows how these programs have been used to punish political dissent, extort political support and reward the tyrant’s political cronies. To aid the victims of our educational system to understand the analysis of these programs, the following subjects precede the analysis of the tyrants programs: • The creation and meaning of wealth • The relationship between wealth and money • The strategy and tactics the tyrants have used to usurp our freedom. • The three economic systems , tyranny, the mixed economy and capitalism are defined The final chapter identifies the greatest danger to the American Revolution and provides the recipe to remove that danger and regain our freedom and prosperity. |
