Has The GCRP Been Infiltrated by the Socialist-Communist Ideology?
- By Ana Artiel Helms
Watch what they do - listen to what they say.
In the last business meeting of the GCRP, held on October 2, 2023, the creation of a “Committee on Discipline” was proposed by a member and elected officer of the party to our GCRP Chairman. The proposed “Committee on Discipline” was followed by the introduction of the proposal as a motion under new business, as it was out of order and did not follow the Roberts Rules of Order as it should be. This proposed “committee” appears to be a tactic out of the socialist-communist playbook of the Former Soviet Union and other socialist-communist-led countries and their disciplinary methods.
As someone who comes from a family that suffered the injustices, abuse, and persecutions inflicted by the socialist-communist government during the Second Republic, which was notorious for its brutal and indiscriminate persecution and massacres of unarmed civilians. The torture and killing of Catholics, Christians and people with religious affiliations. The destruction of churches, monasteries, art, archives, and historical text by the socialist-communist. Nothing was sacred to these salvages. I cannot, and I will not remain silent.
'Good Government' Is a Two-Way Street
- By Veronique de Rugy
You've undoubtedly noticed how up-in-arms everyone becomes when the government is on the verge of shutting down. I've also noticed that the people who most loudly express their horror at the notion of a partial government closure seem totally comfortable with the fiscal wall we are barreling into. That wall is being built, brick by brick, by two political parties that are unwilling to end Washington's spending debauchery.
This isn't to deny that some people would have been hurt by the recently averted shutdown (which, by the way, would not have made our debt smaller). It's a call for consistency from anyone putting their good-government sensibilities on display.
Why Liberal? Why Conservative?
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
One of the great mysteries of life is political and religious conviction. Why are some people liberals, and others conservative? Why are some people atheists or false religionists, and others Christian? Why do beliefs or convictions, over time, remain fixed or change — by smaller degrees, or by fundamental, life-changing conversion?
In this fallen world, the Christian conservative is one who staunchly and heroically upholds God's Word and God's Law, applying them to all issues personal and public, while struggling against sin in self and in others. In politics, he wisely understands that governments are run by fallen men and so must be organized and maintained accordingly for the protection of society and the good of all. But this true, Christian conservative must not be confused with the weak and ever-compromising and ever-surrendering positional or relative conservative of mere expediency.
Solving America's Housing Woes or Making Them Worse?
- By Veronique de Rugy
America needs more housing. Pressure for reform is only growing as available homes get less and less affordable. Unfortunately, rather than addressing the root cause of high housing prices -- an epidemic of local overregulation that prevents enough homes from being built -- some legislators continue to flirt with social experiments that can harm both landlords and renters.
For example, some states and localities have implemented well-meaning "fair chance" laws banning criminal history on background checks for prospective tenants. Progressive Reps. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., recently introduced the idea as federal legislation. In a statement, Pressley said, "It's time we remove the systemic obstacles that have exacerbated the prison-to-homelessness pipeline."
Are Ordinary Americans Buying 'Bidenomics'?
- By Veronique de Rugy
As election season approaches, Democrats are touting the economic results of Biden administration policies aimed at improving the lives of working Americans and creating a more equitable economy. But ordinary Americans aren't feeling the so-called success of "Bidenomics."
Superficially, the economy looks solid. As measured by real GDP, it increased at an annual rate of 2.1% in the second quarter of 2023. While August's unemployment rate rose to 3.8%, that's still considered full employment by economists. Wages are rising, and we are often told that we're in a manufacturing boom.
Christian Revelation and the Origin of Races
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
The great theologian Bonaventure, eight centuries ago, observed how unbelieving thinkers are prone to two great and critical failures: the failure to ask the right questions; and the failure to avoid wrong conclusions. In the 1850s, Charles Darwin, by failing to believe and comprehend Genesis, wrote fundamentally flawed books on the origin of species and on the so-called "descent" of man. By these errant but influential tomes. Darwin has misled, and continues to mislead, legions of the unbelieving and anti-Christ.
The Surprising, Uplifting Truth About Inequality
- By Veronique de Rugy
Today's hyperpartisan and frequently negative news cycle ignores one significant and uplifting story: the precipitous decline of global inequality. It's a subject that deserves our attention, for it reveals the power of markets, trade and human ingenuity to lift up societies.
For decades, critics of globalization lamented the chasm that trade and a growing economic interdependence among nations would ostensibly create between the rich and the poor. In the last few decades, however, we've witnessed a clear reduction in global inequality quite contrary to the doomsayers' old predictions. Emerging economies -- many of which were once considered backwaters destined to languish -- have taken giant leaps forward by joining the global economy. Millions of people have been raised from abject poverty and wealth disparities have narrowed.
