End the Political Hate Game of Left versus Right
Welcome to
ECONOMIC POPULISM
Social, economic, and spiritual reforms for
the Republican Party
We are very different from all other groups and movements.
We need your advocacy, we need your written and video testimonials, and we need your financial support to organize this into a powerful national movement.
Our GoFundMe campaign is vital to this effort. See the great testimonials we have posted, and our
Testimonial Guidelines.
The Welcome Movement is the social, spiritual, and political reform movement of our times
1. FIRST, we are a reform movement which is dissatisfied with the two major political parties. We define a Nationalist and “populist” economic plan that can be embraced by a firm majority of Americans, including immigrant and minority groups. This economic plan is capitalist by category, but left of center because it prioritizes the people over big industries. Meanwhile, we are right of center on culture war issues, and further right on patriotism. We don’t match any Party agenda. We are here to lead, not to follow. It’s time to end the political hate game of the Left and Right, and “Welcome” everyone to the greatness of America. We champion the core idea that everyone can own a house, own a car, have children, be employed, be prosperous, enjoy all personal freedoms, and live abundantly. Nationalism, in its most threatening form to its opponents, is about unifying ALL the people of America. It’s not about uniting Whites or Christians. Everyone wins when everyone is united. And yes, we exclude those who plot and scheme to control and divide us. When the majority of people are working together, all kinds of populist economic initiatives will be unstoppable. The people will live abundantly, and we will no longer be bled dry by various industries. They have kept us divided and hating each other for decades. This was done specifically to prevent unity and the resulting National Populism.
2. SECOND, we are broadly interfaith in that we outline a set of spiritual values common to most Faiths (scroll down to see), including Islam and various Asian Faiths, but we are not an "Interfaith Movement". I am a Christian, and I believe that our nation is defined by Christian values. The concept of an Interfaith Movement is for each Faith to concede points and beliefs towards a common understanding. A Christian cannot do that, nor can a Muslim. To resolve this conflict, we simply listed broad spiritual values that appear to be common to all religions, and even to most non-believers. Each person can then add to this list with personal values, or by citing their Faith’s teachings. Note also that a person can have personal values, but there is no such thing as “personal morality”. Morality, by definition, is the collective values and beliefs of many associated people. It is not individual in nature. The list of Spiritual Values is complemented by a second list of values and virtues from America's past. These lists are the foundation of our National Populist perspective. We Welcome everyone to broadly embrace spiritual values, and to view them as the needed foundation for government, for public education, and for society’s morals and values.
3. THIRD, it is to establish a National Populism that shall challenge popular culture and the big industries that control the values and direction of our society. Their hegemony must be ended. We are disgusted that the banks, insurance companies, and landlords own both political parties, and have corrupted them. They manipulate the Democratic Party as “controlled opposition” in order to prevent sweeping reforms to banking, insurance, and landlord/tenant matters that are otherwise unlikely to source from the Republican Party. They continue to divide America by race, national origin, and religious beliefs with Saul Alinsky tactics. They want us weak, silent, and divided, so we can’t unite and change the system. Our populist counter-initiative is coming exactly as they have privately feared. Their worst-case scenario is for Nationalism and Economic Populism to come together, so let’s do it. Those who actually control America have feared this for generations. They’ve been successful in crying that any movement in this direction is Naziism. This tactic will fail against us because we are about unity, and we intentionally include immigrants and racial minorities. If EVERYONE is united, we’ll care about each other instead of hating each other, and we’ll have the numbers and the collective vision to reform banking, insurance, landlord-tenant matters, and more. Nationalism, by definition, should mean that everyone loves America, is proud of America, and considers themselves “American”. People can privately have personal pride in the national background of their ancestors, which is secondary to being American.
Our populist counter-initiative is coming in a way they never thought that conservatives would be capable of. We do it under the banner of unity and diversity, and advancing the Word of God in a manner that can be embraced by all major religions and denominations. While we define the problems of America in stark terms, this remains a “no-hate zone”. We cannot revert to their tactics without sacrificing our own spirituality.

Overview Of These Two Lists
We present the above two lists of core values are the basic Conservative vision. As a nation, we have drifted so far that it is necessary to list these prominently on our website. What is "conservative" is based on social values, and once those values are established and accepted, there can then be debate on what kind of economic system best serves the needs of the people, and best allows these values to advance.
The basic conservative theory is that if everyone lived and conducted business with the above two sets of values, the greatest number of people would live happy and productive lives, and there would hardly be any need for government, social services, law enforcement, courts, and taxation.
Decades ago, everyone knew this was the theory; some agreed, and some disagreed. No problem, it's a free country.
But in our modern times, both the Left and the Right have so distorted the discussion of issues that many people think "conservative" is about fearing immigrants and minorities, forcing a religion onto everyone, and amassing wealth at the expense of others. That's incorrect, and that's not our vision.
It's therefore necessary to define the term "conservative". And now that it has been done, it should be clear to the readers that conservative theory is very desirable, and that it can exist in every country on Earth. If you are not sure, re-read the above two lists. Those aren't values for White American people, those are values for everyone.
Ironically, the further concentration of poverty is part of the transformation of America. Barack Obama said he wanted to "fundamentally transform America".
Here's how he actually did it:
1. The more that people are tenants, the more they vote Democrat. Home ownership rates continue to decline. Millions of homes that were lost to foreclosures are now owned by investors and rented out. Home prices are too high, and changing mortgage rules are locking people out.
2. The more that people live at high population density, the more likely they are to vote Democrat. Construction of multi-family housing is booming, because families cannot buy homes.
3. The more that people are poor and struggling, the more they vote Democrat. Poverty is actually increasing, and the criteria used to define the federal poverty level has not been altered despite extreme cost increases for rent, insurance, medical, and day care. Any statistics showing a decrease in poverty are distortions that don't take this into account. The country is "prospering economically" because the top 5% of the population does 95% of the spending, and that top 5% has been doing very well. This is a recipe' for extreme social and political conflict, and possibly the rise of Socialism. Capitalism isn't working for everything. Our goal is that it must work for everyone.
4. The more that people reject God, the more they vote Democrat. All of the social and cultural changes advocated through popular culture are moving in this direction. Our youth are taught that religion is ignorant and backwards, and that the true leaders of modern society are artists and entertainers. This is absolutely the focus of the Democratic Party. It's a War on God, and it's being conducted under the banner of sexual and gender freedom of every possible variety.
Who do we want. In short, everyone.
Who do we want. In short, everyone.
1. IMMIGRANTS & MINORITIES As already described, people of all religions and ethnic and racial backgrounds
2. PEOPLE OF FAITH, as abundantly clear in all our writings
3. LIBERTARIANS and CONSTITUTIONALISTS. We are at least 90% in agreement. We are a bit more Faith-oriented, and we will not support the legalization of recreational drugs on the grounds that a lifestyle of substance abuse is the anti-thesis to personal and spiritual development.
4. ECONOMIC CONSERVATIVES. Some of our reforms (right column) will seem on the surface to be against their interests, but a deeper understanding is that the capitalist system is most safe from the rise of Socialism when the greatest number of people are prospering economically, and therefore valuing capitalism. We are philosophically behind capitalism 100%, and we believe that global prosperity means global peace. Capitalism is the key to ending global poverty, and eliminating war and terrorism. More people will have more disposable income to purchase more goods and services under our economic reforms. They will be happy, and the economy will boom in America and globally. Nobody will want war, terrorism, or violence.
Stay tuned, things will get real interesting......
