New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Button.

As I believe I've mentioned previously, Scientology front-groups (in this case The Way to Happiness) now have their own front-groups (in this case Reset Our Gov).

As noted below, Reset Our Gov is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

Pressing America's Reset Button video.

I'm very interested, and to be honest concerned, about what he is going to propose. I strongly suspect it is going to be more than voting. A constitutional convention? One or more constitutional amendments? Perhaps limiting or eliminating the U.S. government's ability to incur debt?

I would buy his book if I could do so anonymously at a book store, and not through Amazon, just to find out more.

Yes, he has successfully created a mystery sandwich.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

Welcome to Reset Our Gov video.

Ok, in this video he assures us that he is not going to call for a constitutional convention. Could it really be about just urging people to vote?

Could this all just be for book promo? But, as noted above, on the Reset Our Gov website he states that all proceeds from the book will go to Reset Our Gov.

This video presents another mystery sandwich.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

On the Road to Resetting America radio program - episode #1 - February 5, 2016.

Interview purported aired on WSMN 1590 am in Nasua, New Hampshire.

Little substance. His focus is again the national debt. He mentions someone who was concerned about schooling. Vague discussion regarding oil prices.

Again says all proceeds from the sale of the book go to the Reset Our Gov nonprofit.

This is supposed to be a weekly radio show.

[video=youtube;pST43lOVVOY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pST43lOVVOY[/video]

*****************************************

EDITED TO ADD:

I believe this is not a legitimate interview on the radio, or if it is that it is a paid radio infomercial. The reason is that in a 20 minute interview, the host did not once interrupt to provide the call letter and numbers. ("This is WSMN 1590 am.") That is very odd. I see the station is in fact FCC licensed. Still, I suspect it does not amount to much given the fact it does not have an operating website, and has no Arbitron / Nielson ratings.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

Even without the CoS connection I would find this a bit suspicious... From reading the amazon reviews and watching the videos here, I still have no idea what this movement is about? (Other than encouraging people to vote.)
It's like reading an ad for a seminar or book on 'How to make 100K per year, from home!'', without the advertisement giving any idea how this would be done.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

I would ask him, "Reset to what?".
People in this country have pretty diverse ideas on what they would want America to be like.
Nearly everyone is worried about the amount of debt we have, but there has always been a strong disagreement over what should get cut to reduce the debt. People, in general, dislike lobbiests influencing politicians... Unless, of course, it's lobbiests for our pet cause. Etc...

The Church has lobbied for tax code revisions for a long time. There are a number of articles about it on Freedom Mag’s site. Their initial motivations were probably to make charitable donations more favorable to them and to reduce government intrusion and reporting requirements if not to abolish the IRS outright. I suspect during this effort they discovered the value of establishing connections with members of congress through lobbying in general and appreciate the benefit of piggybacking onto popular grass roots issues. The unsustainable national debt can only be resolved with an increase in taxation, a decrease in government services or currency manipulation - none of which are favorable to the Church.
________________________________________________
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_for_an_Alternative_Tax_System

Citizens for an Alternative Tax System (CATS) is a national tax reform public interest group in the United States. Their Las Vegas chapter proposes "that Congress should eliminate the IRS and all income taxes, corporate and personal; estate, gift and inheritance taxes, plus many excise taxes; replacing them with a single-rate tax on consumption—a national retail sales tax.[1]
According to sources, CATS was founded by Steven L. Hayes and shares a similar mission to national retail sales tax (NRST) and FairTax proponents such as John McCain, Fred Thompson, Mike Huckabee, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, Mike Gravel, John Lindner and Saxby Chambliss.[2] Early in its existence it enjoyed the support of the Church of Scientology, apparently as the organization's end goal involved the dissolution of the IRS at a time when Scientology was struggling to regain its tax-exempt status.[2]
_____
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FairTax

The creation of the FairTax began with a group of businessmen from Houston, Texas, who initially financed what has become the political advocacy group Americans For Fair Taxation (AFFT), which has grown into a large tax reform movement.[3][29] This organization, founded in 1994, claims to have spent over $20 million in research, marketing, lobbying, and organizing efforts over a ten-year period and is seeking to raise over $100 million more to promote the plan.[98] AFFT includes a staff in Houston and a large group of volunteers who are working to get the FairTax enacted. Bruce Bartlett has charged that the FairTax was devised by the Church of Scientology in the early 1990s,[43] drawing comparisons between the tax policy and religious doctrine from the faith, whose creation myth holds that an evil alien ruler known as Xenu "used phony tax inspections as a guise for destroying his enemies."[99] Representative John Linder told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Bartlett confused the FairTax movement with the Scientology-affiliated Citizens for an Alternative Tax System,[100] which also seeks to abolish the federal income tax and replace it with a national retail sales tax. Leo Linbeck, AFFT Chairman and CEO, stated "As a founder of Americans For Fair Taxation, I can state categorically, however, that Scientology played no role in the founding, research or crafting of the legislation giving expression to the FairTax."[98]

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

It's from Scientology, that means that you will be told marvelous things about a tech that will empower you. You donate money and the result never comes. But what does come is the next thing that explains why reset didn't work but that's all solved now thanks to donations to reset. This new thing will handle it.... and so the story goes with scams.

It's bait and take followed with more bait.

Re: New Scientology Front Group: Reset Our Gov. Book: How To Press America's Reset Bu

Reset America, so that the government will do what it's supposed to do... This is vague enough to get support from both conservatives and liberals, of course those groups want the government to do quite different things.
Using 'vagueness' to get people to agree with a POV seems unethical, it's not unlike making a Barnum statement

It refers to other people, groups and pages on Facebook that the person has Facebook liked -- i.e., clicked the "Like" button for that person, group or page. It is not only how you show support on Facebook, but also a way to get updates from that person, group or page.

I suspect there the following story on the Reset Our Gov blog is bullshit

I suspect there the following story on the Reset Our Gov blog is bullshit.

The story is from the Reset Our Gov blog.

The reason I suspect the following story is bullshit is that Barnes and Noble does not carry How To Press America's Reset Button in stock in their stores. A clerk in the store explained that the book is a "print on demand" book, is therefore not carried in stock, and has to be special ordered. Indeed, the clerk indicated that it would be quicker (and perhaps coincidentally easier for her) if a customer just ordered the book off of the Barnes and Noble website for home delivery, rather order that it be printed, delivered to a B&N store, and then picked up from that store.

[NOTE: As shown below, "Nelson" is Sean's RV and has a picture of the book on the back.]

How To Press America's Reset Bu

* * * * * BEGIN EXCERPT * * * * *

Yesterday, right after the radio interview, I drove into a local gas station to fill up Nelson. It wasn't a truck stop, just a normal gas station, and of course Nelson takes up an entire lane. I noticed someone inside the gas station looking at us, which is pretty usual, so I just went about my business.

As gas was flowing I was standing at the back of the rig and out walked the man you see in the photo - his name is Gary. He had kind of a smirk on his face and things proceeded this way:

Gary - smirking, about to say something.

Me - looking at him expectantly.

Gary - "Oh, I was just going to bust your chops."

Me - "Oh, go ahead. I can handle it."

Gary - "No, I agree with you."

Me - looking at him.

Gary - "I read your book. I agree with you."

Me - "What?"

Gary - nodding at the book on the back of Nelson, "I've read your book."

Me - "Where did you hear about it?"

Gary - "I'm a political junky. I was at Barnes and Noble and I saw it and bought it."

Me - pointing at the back of Nelson - "You bought that book at Barnes and Noble?"

Gary - "Yea, up in northern New Hampshire, I went into Barnes and Noble and bought it. I agree with you." He then gave me a rundown on the problem with each of the presidential candidates.
