FEDERAL RECOGNITION PALES NEXT TO INDEPENDENCE !
The Maui News -Sunday, May 22, 2005
Can you imagine everyone seeking independence, everyone setting themselves free from slavery from this corrupted system that runs our lives here in Hawai`i?
There would be no state or county. That means there would be an independent state or nation again.
We, the people, would be able to control our destiny.
Land wouldn't be sold to bigwigs. House prices would come down so our people would be able to live here.
How can we sell ourselves out again by accepting federal recognition and go along with that nation-within-a-nation thing? This would be no good for us or our children.
There is a way to freedom....
