This is such a bad idea in so many ways I'm stunned by this. This is part of the coming police state.

A new executive order, signed quietly this weekend by President Obama, that would allow the nation’s chief executive to declare an emergency and take over, well, pretty much everything.

It wouldn’t necessarily have to be a wartime declaration, it could be the result of a natural disaster declaration, and it would allow the President to control energy, manufacturing, transportation, food, and water resources by decree. Meaning this order gives the president to, unilaterally, take over.

The justification for this is undoubtedly to allow the government to respond to emergencies faster. Yet anyone who remembers that Walmart did a better, more efficient job of distributing relief supplies to Hurricane Katrina victims than any level of government knows that this is some pretty thin gruel.

Yet this is how the left think. They believe that if they have more power to organize and direct our lives for us, everything will run better. You can read the whole thing at the link.
