After America , There is No Place to Go"
The author of this article lives in South Dakota and is very active in attempting to maintain our freedom.
I encourage everybody to read this article and pass it along. I see so many parallels in this country-are we
going to sit by and watch it happen? Spread the word; also contact your congressional reps; vote them out
if they don't do what they should. If you don't want to be bothered, then you're part of the problem!

America truly is the Greatest Country in the World.
Don't Let Freedom Slip Away --- By: Kitty Werthmann
What I am about to tell you is something you've probably never heard or will ever read in history books.
I believe that I am an eyewitness to history. I cannot tell you that Hitler took Austria by tanks and guns; it
would distort history. We elected him by a landslide - 98% of the vote.. I've never read that in any
American publications. Everyone thinks that Hitler just rolled in with his tanks and took Austria by force.
In 1938, Austria was in deep Depression. Nearly one-third of our workforce was unemployed.
We had 25% inflation and 25% bank loan interest rates.
Farmers and business people were declaring bankruptcy daily. Young people were going from house to
house begging for food. Not that they didn't want to work; there simply weren't any jobs. My mother was
a Christian woman and believed in helping people in need. Every day we cooked a big kettle of soup
and baked bread to feed those poor, hungry people - about 30 daily. The Communist Party and the
National Socialist Party were fighting each other.. Blocks and blocks of cities like Vienna, Linz, and
Graz were destroyed. The people became desperate and petitioned the government to let them decide
what kind of government they wanted.
We looked to our neighbor on the north, Germany , where Hitler had been in power since 1933.
We had been told that they didn't have unemployment or crime, and they had a high standard of living.
Nothing was ever said about persecution of any group -- Jewish or otherwise. We were led to believe
that everyone was happy. We wanted the same way of life in Austria .. We were promised that a vote for
Hitler would mean the end of unemployment and help for the family. Hitler also said that businesses
would be assisted, and farmers would get their farms back. Ninety-eight percent of the population
voted to annex Austria to Germany and have Hitler for our ruler.
We were overjoyed, and for three days we danced in the streets and had candlelight parades.
The new government opened up big field kitchens and everyone was fed.
After the election, German officials were appointed, and like a miracle, we suddenly had law and order.
Three or four weeks later, everyone was employed. The government made sure that a lot of work was
created through the Public Work Service.
Hitler decided we should have equal rights for women. Before this, it was a custom that married
Austrian women did not work outside the home. An able-bodied husband would be looked down on
if he couldn't support his family. Many women in the teaching profession were elated that they could
retain the jobs they previously had been required to give up for marriage.
Hitler Targets Education - Eliminates Religious Instruction for Children:
Our education was nationalized. I attended a very good public school. The population was
predominantly Catholic, so we had religion in our schools. The day we elected Hitler (March 13, 1938),
I walked into my schoolroom to find the crucifix replaced by Hitler's picture hanging next to a Nazi flag.
Our teacher, a very devout woman, stood up and told the class we wouldn't pray or have religion
anymore. Instead, we sang "Deutschland, Deutschland, Uber Alles," and had physical education.
Sunday became National Youth Day with compulsory attendance. Parents were not pleased about the
sudden change in curriculum. They were told that if they did not send us, they would receive a stiff letter
of warning the first time. The second time they would be fined the equivalent of $300, and the third time
they would be subject to jail. The first two hours consisted of political indoctrination. The rest of the day
we had sports. As time went along, we loved it. Oh, we had so much fun and got our sports
equipment free. We would go home and gleefully tell our parents about the wonderful time we had.
