  • Who We Are

     2020-10-05

    The USA didn't gain it's independence and become the premier world power by nicely doing as they were told by the Crown.

    This site is set up, funded, and managed by Jim Makin of Petersfield, Hampshire, United Kingdom, in furtherance of this objective.

    Jim studied at Brighton Polytechnic (simultaneously serving two years in the TA), graduated in 1972 with BSc (Hons) Computer Science and Data Processing, and spent his working life designing installing and servicing information systems for manufacturing

  • Power to the People!

    This site has three primary purposes:

     

    • To encourage every one of us to think for ourselves.

      If we have formed no convictions of our own, then we are open to manipulation (maybe worse) by others who would prefer us to support their agendas (if only by default).

      This is the first prerequisite for personal freedom!


    • To encourage every one of us
