About Bill

A former Plumas County Supervisor, now retired
 
Bill Dennison attained his B.S. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1959 and is a California Licensed Forester. He worked as a logger in his younger years and then for Diamond Match Company as surveyor, Resident Forester, Road Construction Manager, and Forest Engineer, until 1971, when he was employed as Vice President; Timber Sale Services by Western Timber Association (WTA). He was elected President in 1980. WTA merged with California Forest Protective Association in 1988 and Bill was elected President and CEO of the new organization, California Forestry Association. (CFA),
 
He retired from CFA in 1994, to work with Culver Fiber and Fuel until 1995. At the same time, he served as Executive Director of Sierra-Cascade Logging Conference in Redding until 2006.
 
Bill was appointed to the Plumas County Board of Supervisor’s by Governor Pete Wilson; where he served from 1995 until retiring in 2006.
 
During his tenure with CFA, Bill helped organize Alliance for Environment and Resources (AER) that branched into groups such as Shasta Alliance for Resources and Environment (SHARE), Klmath Alliance for Resources and Environment (KARE), TUCARE (Tuolumne County) and others across the state.
 
Much of Bill’s career has been working on the behalf of the forest products industry and as an advocate for private property rights on the local, state and federal level.
 
He is currently working with a national group on the Wayne Hage Project. This case involves the federal government confiscation of the Hage family water rights 20 years ago. Wayne Hage, his first wife and second wife Congresswoman Helen Chenoweth have since passed away and the family has still not been compensated for this act of injustice.
 
Bill maintains an active role in all levels of politics, believes that grassroots participation is essential to the preservation of our republic and is in full support of the Tea Party movement.

 
Private Property Rights, Going, Going, but, Not Gone
Dennison says "We need to stimulate public interest in the erosion of Private Property Rights (PPR) and act now, before they are impacted."
We plan to discuss:
  1. We have taken our Private (and Public) Property Rights for granted.
  2. They are essential in maintaining our Republic.
  3. Denial of PPR's are essential characteristics of Socialism.
  4. PPR loss occurs by force (Soviet Socialist Republic) in Russia, or vote (National Socialism) in Germany.
  5. Loss may be total (Russia), partial (England and USA).
  6. Socialism has been spread often under the alleged (abolition against poverty) and now in the U.S., Social Justice....Redistribution of Wealth.
  7. Human rights cannot exist w/o PPR's. "To deny Private Property Right's means to turn men into property owned by the state." Ayn Rand (Atlas Shrugged)
  8. Progressive's, under the guise of preservationists have gone so far as to allege, legislate and litigate Animal Rights over both Human Rights and PPR's. Thus, the implementation of Endangered Species Act, Wilderness Bills, Roadless Areas and Presidential Executive Orders and ever increasing Public Land Trusts.for "The Good Of The People."

 

Dennison plans to discuss two examples of PPR loss:

  1. Two lots in Half Moon Bay adjacent to the Pacific Ocean were inherited by my brother and me. Property taxes have been paid since 1932, where they are included in a large area adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The streets were mapped and named, but never developed. In 1981, due to lawsuits by local "environmental" groups, a  moratorium was issued on all of the properties, but we still were required to pay taxes. This last year, the city doubled the "taxes" through a new school district "assessment". The short-of-the-story is that we  gave the property to Coastside Land Trust, rather than pay anymore taxes and fighting a system as absentee owners. The "Willing Seller, Willing Buyer" concept once again lost in the political/court arena through the persistence of the far-left. 
  2. The federal government (Forest Service) confiscation of the Wayne Hage property without any financial compensation. More is available on-line.
    A few notes that show the difficulties that will be encountered in our fight to preserve PPR's, open access to federal lands, a United States of American republic and the U.S. Constitution of today:
  • Grant Jeffrey, in his book Shadow Government, referenced The War Atlas, a military study that noted: "As a result of history dangers to national security, most nations have joined alliances to protect themselves."
  • In the 1970's, theologian France Schaeffer described our world: "History indicates that at a certain point of economic breakdown people cease being concerned with individual liberties and are ready to accept regimentation."
  • In 1994, David Rockefeller said during his United Nations speech; "All we need is the right major crises and the nations will accept the New World Order."
  • German philosopher Georg Friedrich Hegel, (1800's) theorized that "...by planning and actually producing crises, leaders gain enormous power by stepping in and promising solutions."
    This was in fact what Hitler was able to accomplish. The Hegel philosophy and actions are supported by socialists in general and Agenda 21 advocates in particular.
  • We have seen a series of crises in the past 10 years that have permitted more government control.
  • Probably 60 + percent of Americans, who understand the One World Government concept would voice opposition. But, they may waver, when faced with the proposition that only One World Government can preserve their "riches and peace".
     

As bleak as our future may appear, we must never give up.
