Great, Obama will be able to quarantine federal employees, but since executive orders do not pertain to citizens, what the fuck to do then? Install martial law?

Martial law is definitely part of the plan.

Funny how Obama has used this whole event as an excuse to send 2000 troops to a country that supplies China with a lot of Oil.

Because troops are the best at fighting contagious disease. What with their guns and all.

To stop Ebola, sometimes troops are the answer.

Sorry, that will be supplying China with oil in the future as they are drilling lots of holes in the ground searching.

Where in the world did you get an idea like that?

Executive Order 6102 is a United States presidential executive order signed on April 5, 1933, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt "forbidding the Hoarding of gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates within the continental United States". The order criminalized the possession of monetary gold by any individual, partnership, association or corporation.

Sorry bub, you're wrong. The trading with the enemy act of 1917 was what made the confiscation/ holding of gold illegal, possible, not because of the executive order itself. And it all came from the emergency banking act which broadened the scope of the 1917 act to include gold. That is how they were able to confiscate gold and make it illegal to own in large amounts.

If executive orders pertained to the people, then all executive orders are laws produced by dictate, and in this country laws must come from Congress, not the president. Executive orders cannot make laws. Period. Executive orders can only be used to change federal administrative policy or to affect internal operations of Federal agencies.

So, Obama can't tell me what to do? Are you sure? Maybe I should just do what he says anyway.
