The following is a special message from John Anthony of Sustainable Freedom Lab
[http://sustainablefreedomlab.org/]. He
has been at the forefront of exposing the dangers of Regional Sustainable
Development.

America's Trance

This is one webcast you will not want to miss. We break down the tragic consequences of
Regional Sustainable Development in language everyone can understand and share.
You probably know I don't believe in extreme left or right
rhetoric. This is because it loses us
the uninformed and misinformed neighborhood audiences we need the most.
It is frustrating to see how many Americans think a 5%
unemployment rate means that 95% of workers have jobs. (It means 95% of one
worker category has jobs [http://portalseven.com/employment/unemployment_rate_u6.jsp].
The rest are struggling for work in near record numbers.)
Or, that a 5% hike in Obamacare premiums is a success.
(Premium hikes were similar
[http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/money/industries/health/2009-09-15-insurance-costs_N.htm]
before the ACA passed, and the 5% excludes the new family-budget-busting taxes,
fees, penalties and deductibles.)
Our webcast sets the record straight on Regional Sustainable
Development and Smart Growth in a language that has broad community appeal.
SFL began our Shattering America's Trance
[http://shatteringamericastrance.com/] workshops to teach informed people how
to stop 'preaching to the choir' and help community members unravel media
distortions. When we have more influence than the mainstream media, we can
begin to change Washington.
Imagine having a civil conversation about the Affordable
Care Act, Common Core or Regional Sustainable Development without people
accusing you of hating the poor or the environment!
On Sunday, May 17th at 6 PM EST, SFL will conduct our first webcast
[http://shatteringamericastrance.com/register/]in a free series to help
you better understand and discuss controversial news topics with your friends
and neighbors.
I am excited about our opening program's two special guests.
Susan Price, a former educator and CPA from New Jersey
brings a unique perspective. Susan is a former liberal who is now a
libertarian. She gives us sharp insights
into how to communicate across this wide divide.
We are extremely fortunate to have Wendell Cox, one of the
world's foremost authorities on regionalism; and on housing affordability as it
relates to Smart Growth.
Bring your pad and pencil for this one because Wendell is a
rapid-fire encyclopedia of what will happen if your community falls for the
lure of Regional Sustainable Development.
The Shattering America's Trance webcast
[http://shatteringamericastrance.com/register/] is not more 'red meat' to
inflame people who already understand the risks of government advanced
programs. This is a completely new way
to approach your uninformed and misinformed neighbors armed with information
they care about.
I truly believe if more Americans fully understood what
their future looks like under current policies, we could build community bonds
and stop politicians cold. I hope you
will join our free webcast and share the time and date with your friends. Register for our webcast here

Host a Shattering America's Trance Workshop [http://shatteringamericastrance.com/]
If our nation is to survive, we must help community members
realize that government is responsible for eroding job opportunities and
stealing future hope from all but the very rich. We need you to join the information movement.
Working with other activists, Shattering America's Trance
workshop teams learn techniques to distinguish potential allies from hopeless
ideologues, break down the barriers between the left and right, and present
even controversial ideas in ways that make people want to learn more.
We are looking for hosts to help us find locations near you
to present the workshops. We provide the promotional materials and work with
you to make hosting a fun experience that is also helping to bring America
back. Contact me
[http://shatteringamericastrance.com/contact/] if you would like to join us as
a host.
Our future depends on our ability to pull factions together
and find common ground among large groups of citizens. Shattering America's Trance shows easy
techniques to share the news people never hear with a broader audience and get
community members to take action.
I hope you will join me in realizing it is time to stop
preaching to the choir. To host or attend a workshop in your area, go to Shattering America's Trance
