Anyone who agrees with the OP is already a puppet for the NWO and the worst thing of all is that they don't even know it.
Anyone who would put themselves in a position and allow themselves to be dictated to, and used and abused by a government that is morally beneath them is nothing more than a puppet. Wake up and smell the coffee.

We don't need to take up arms. We need to shut off the tube,read more books, read more diverse and scholarly press, and ORGANIZE. We could drive the companies we claim to loathe out of business in days if we just had the will. But we don't. We're comfortable. Too comfortable. We live a life of largess only possible thanks to our forefathers' fortuitous access to lands, resources and labor, in addition to our ability to project military might.
Our lifestyle is on the way out. Who is going to decide what will replace it? Communities, or corporations?

"The Creeping Coercion by Technology
Radio and television catch the mind directly, leaving children no time for calm, dialectic conversation with their books. The view from the screen doesn't allow for the freedom-arousing mutuality of communication and discussion. Conversation is the lost art. These inventions steal time and steal self-awareness. What technology gives with one hand-easiness and physical security-it takes away with the other. It has taken away affectionate relationships between men. The depersonalized Christmas card with its printed signature, the form letter, the very typewriter are examples of mechanical proxies. Technical intrusion usurps human relationships, as if people no longer had to give one another attention and love any more. The bottle replaces Mother's breast, the nickel in the automat replaces Mother's preparation of sandwiches. The impersonal machine replaces human gesture and mutuality. Children educated in this way prefer to be alone, with fantasies to escape into and gadgets to play with. Mechanization pushes them into mental withdrawal. "
