Snowden Files and the China Shoe Drop

With the revelation that the U.S. governments, N.S.A. has spied on the phone calls of foreign heads of state for many years, including those of American allies the concern has arisen that U.S. national security is being damaged. In the case of Germany and other friends it is U.S. relations that are being damaged rather than national security. Germany was no threat of attack on the U.S.A. In the case of China, we are waiting for that other shoe to drop.

 Initially Edward Snowden fled with his intelligence files to China where he may or may not have given Chinese agents a copy. We tend to think not, for he was not given permanent residence in that communist nation whereas in Russia, he was. If the U.S.A. has been spying on the private phone calls of the Premier and politburo officials providing wikileaks with that data would damage U.S. national security. Make no mistake, only Chinese Communist Party officials have the right to secretly listen to the phone calls of Chinese communist leaders and any other dangers to the people of China.

If the evil Dr. Fu Manchu is plotting to take another billion dollars from foreign investors without paying taxes the Chinese leadership needs to know to try to slip the noose over the malefactor. If the seventh son of Charlie Chan has invented a poof gun disappearing targets into another dimension the Red Army has to have it first. Like the need of the U.S. government to know whatever business anyone is about in order to provide that data to those willing to concentrate wealth, the Chinese leadership needs to know before any foreign surveillers just what is going on in the Empire.

The Snowden Files: Obama N.S.A. Spied on 35 World Leaders Inc.l Angela Merkel

Taking a page from a covert wealth conspiracy theory for the New World Order, the newest Snowden Files revelation that President Obama's N.S.A. violated the private phone chat of thirty-five world leaders makes one wonder if the Democrat President isn't really a shill for the New World Order. His brother is said to be on Egypt's terrorist watch list for operating a financial provisioning organization supporting the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood movement. President Obama also supports Sunni revolution in Syria that would probably be as Democratic as the Morsi Government was in Egypt.

If the trust of our European allies is lost because of the crass violation of the national sovereignty of alliances that in the case of Germany has existed since the government of Chancellor Konrad Adenauer after the conclusion of the Second World War, for the new world order oligarchy seeking to end national sovereignty and make the world a marketplace for concentrated wealth oligarchs it is simply a logical step toward subjugation of political systems. The alarming concurrence of the interests of global communists and global oligarchs in ending nationalism to bring godless, satanic atheist shills to rule isn't an encouraging trend for the job prospects of the unemployed in the U.S.A.

Anti-wimp Coaching for Internet Newbies

News reports of suicides by youth after abuse from internet trolls are common enough these days. The response has been on an anti-bullying axis instead of anti-wimp coaching. The former tends to increase government power and the latter that of individuals. Coaching individuals new to the internet to withstand and successfully fend of troll attacks is probably a better course to pursue.

Those new to the Internet discover a planetful of communications they are not familiar with from the neighborhood. Often they go unprepared into cyberspace and experience direct personal attacks and public smears by trolls or anonymous posters. Newbies don’t know how to filter out those messages and are shocked by the public smears. I encountered that a lot at the now defunct N.P.R. Your Turn Discussions arena in 1999-2005. I got a lot of experience at posting political opinions in an unregulated frontier forum. Personal attacks are a characteristic of not only the left, but of the far right as well, though more so the left. Some do not know that it’s o.k. to criticize politicians and political policies but not individual citizens for expressing their criticism. The mob mentality is to stifle any dissent or alternative concepts with personal attack on citizens.

Internet trolls come in many political colors. There is a cornucopia of reasons why human beings given free communications access send deprecatory messages to others. For one thing it’s a juvenile trait. Another good cause is emulation of the wise-guy broadcast media. Internet coaching needs to arise to brief youth and other newbies on the facts of Internet use so they don’t need to mature through the hard knocks of personal experience that is too common, time-wasting and really ubiquitous for public forum users without filter control.

In a former era instead of political advocacy for protection from bullying an American response would have been to ‘Just say no to trolls’. Like those that interrupt a house painter from going about his phenomenal application as directly as possible Internet trolls disrupt writers and other posters from executing their personal interests without the trolling sort of generic personal attacks that are mass produced spam quality expressions of inferiority.

Free speech is the vital social blood of a democracy bringing competition of ideas to produce the best social results possible. Oppression of free speech through personal attacks amounting to a denial of services (the service of expressing one’s ideas for the public good) attack ought not to be tolerated. Standardized procedures for defending against personal attacks should be common in Internet forums such as Facebook. It is difficult to defend against mass communicated slanders and challenging too to defend against Internet dissing, yet coaching of Internet users to the facts of life would at least arm newbies with the knowledge of the nature of the beast.

The Obama Administration's Wise-Guy Lawyer Approach to Politics

Lawyer-Presidents have developed a somewhat bad reputation for ethics since Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton to that President Obama has continued. Attorneys-at-Law are fine legal practitioners and too often bad innovators or inventors without comprehension of material economic policy. Pursuit of disputatious legal points with minimalistic political competence may be a fact of life for Presidents with experience in law and little besides.

Sect. Of State Kerry advocates for Syrian Civil war negotiations and a regime change while providing material war support to the rebellious opposition making the war happen. Those are crocodile tears of sympathy if ever there was for civilian casualties. The Democrats descried the Bush II invasion of privacy with the Patriot Act and Ed Snowden's most recent revelation showed the N.S.A. Tapping 70 million french phone calls. The Obama administration fogged the French government's unhappiness with that as best they could.

President Obama has practiced selective law enforcement while cutting taxes for the rich, keeping Gitmo open and furthering Harvard Business School interests as well as Harvard law. Presidential directed labor statics massaging creates a sense of unreality in the re[porting of the actual state of the economy and high joblessness rate. That's probably business as usual for a Chicago lawyer in the heat of getting rich himself. Billable hours of public debt to the client. Normal enough. The President's clients are the people of the U.S.A. 

Prayer for U.S. Federal Budget?; 'Give Us This Day our Daily Blog, And Forgive Us of Our Debts'

What can be said about the U.S. economy that wasn't mentioned in The Ropespinner Conspiracy already. That fiction book about a Soviet plan to stimulate a U.S. and world  capital economic meltdown like a super 1929 has it all. It anticipated the deregulation and bunk that restructured the banking system and investing. Well, Americans need to act out the plot anyway although some quarter century late. They will hand themselves perhaps yet it seems that it is their own invisible hand that will do the trick.

When national leadership isn't adequate and political-economic leadership outgrows the national borders good things don't seem to follow for the majority of ordinary people. Heck.

New Jazzy Supreme Court says; "Pigs are Free to Fly"

The Supreme Court of New Jazzy voted 6 to 0 to let pig go ahead and fly. Pilot licenses will be issued to applicants today. With reports of laser beams hitting commercial aircraft pilots approaching New York City alone reaching hundreds annually the financial prize for inventing a pair of laser-beam filtering sunglasses or visor is high. What would airlines pay for a pair of polarized anti-laser beams glasses? We thought to interview a typical pig in an aircraft pigsty.

“Capt. Pig, international swine have been piloting aircraft for some years now yet New Jazzy has lagged behind until recently, what was the reason for that?”

The swine had opaque the pigsty windows to defrappe laser beams and had a heads-up display visor in real-time of the New York flight way that screened out too bright light automatically, he said,

“To install a laser light direction finder on aircraft to locate the laser pointer source and send the coordinates to an N.Y.P.D. computer was a small leap for swine. The problem of social repression of swine and affirmative action taken to get rid of traditional values of oppression on the other hoof is a horse of a different color.”

I thought as an interviewer that a lecture by Captain Pig in a pigsty was a bit onerous, yet I listened in rapt fascination to his dissertation.

“Feminist and homosexual values are not simply Yin. Homosexuality Yin transcends the borders of Yin and Yang infusing entropy to the dialectical progressive advance of pigkind. When there are just too many pigs down on the farm advancing with affirmative action and over consuming the farmer’s limited natural resources population increase needs to stop to halt the overconsumption of non-renewable resources. Think-sty research believed that feminist and homosexual swine political philosophy would stop the population growth. Fag pig population declines for obvious reasons while feminist swine are believed to stop dropping piglets in preference for increased affluence when they can’t be troubled to dote on young swine. That isn’t true. In fact it’s a dangerous lie.

Male aggression is the only political power that can overcome the female lack of territoriality. Female pigs could be happy with 340 or 300 billion swine on Y’Earth while male pigs would kill each other off long before then and keep the population down. Male pigs are happy with a home on the range with a population density of just one pig per square 1000 miles while female pigs demand shops, mirrors and glamour boutiques with thousands of servants. Even if the number of swine decreases overall, increasing feminine swine affluence means that the increased desire for consumption of the lady swine becomes a scalar field increase with consumption for society increasing overall. Population reduction with increased resource consumption just means the obsolete value theory of generations of prior swine remains maximized to the optimal state of greed. True swine have new and better theories of male aggression and traditional values sublimated to positive fair and balanced ends. The means are swell as well.”

Well Captain Pig that does seem to mean a bacon of hope exists for the consumers of the new world order yearning to consume resources of North America and elsewhere across the globe with potential for exploitation with better technologies of extraction.

“Yes. Pigs have learned to fly and will make the better new world order.”

Economic Arteriosclerosis, Tim Russert and the Ropespinner Prophecy

The late Tim Russert was maxed out on live media news casting. He shared the rich working life immersed in the homo mongering existential networking of the 4th estate foisting evolving hegemonic rule  over the masses for profit. Rush Limbaugh is the bet noir of that broadcast media. He is the wayward son of a Judge that seized the day disdaining college to be a sports broadcaster here and now. Rush Limbaugh has evolved to become the fanfare for the common man- the sensitive analyst of radio market-share that knows his radio audience is largely uneducated like himself. Limbaugh champions the underdogs of the fly over South Beach heartland of the U.S.A. This essay is not about Rush Limbaugh. Instead it is about Economic Arteriosclerosis, Tim Russert and the Ropespinner Prophecy (I put that it capitals because it ought to be the title of this piece).

The Ropespinner Conspiracy was a fine forward looking fiction novel published in 1987 about the intentional Soviet subversion of the U.S.A. through a devious plan to bring capitalism to wild, crazy, unsupportable economic policy. That sounds like what actually developed in the Clinton years of deregulation. Michael Thomas sets the goal of the Ropespinner Conspiracy to create a 1929 style economic meltdown. Maybe he was inspired by the Reagan era supply-side economics of Arthur Laffer, I can't say. Thomas, the author, does quote novel prize winning economist James Tobin statement of uneasiness with the direction of evolving economics made in a 1984 speech.

James Tobin said, "I confess to an uneasy Physiocratic suspicion” “that we are throwing more and more of our resources, including the cream of our youth, into financial activities remote from the production of goods and services, into activities that generate high private rewards disproportionate to their social productivity." and "For this reason perhaps, high technology has so far yielded disappointing results in economy-wide productivity. I fear that, as Keynes saw even in his day, the advantages of the liquidity and negotiability of financial instruments come at the cost of facilitating nth degree speculation which is short sighted and inefficient."

Tobin's sense of the drift of the U.S. economy seems prescient-well at least right on the money. If the 2008 financial meltdown wasn't the main event, it was at least of prequel of the economic leveler waiting out there with the shape of U.S. economic policy and federal blindness to its failure of leadership.

Rush Limbaugh sells the politics to his largely non-college educated audience that they want, and that means promoting the Hispanics Ted Cruz and Mark Rubio because there are a lot of uneducated Hispanic Americans he could bring into the fold. Nothing is wrong with that, yet promoting politicians for demographic reasons produces as bad of results as promoting surgeons or airline pilots for race reasons that aren't terribly competent. The MahaRushie isn't as anti-intellectual as the Khymer Rouge of course though he shares in a way a desire to take politics back to the year zero. For Rush that means rolling back environmental and economic theory back to the year zero with Fred Flintstone lassez fair capitalism. People in that era didn't know any better. 

 Senator Cruz's baby-mama dropped him in Canada, and that's not the Canadian River country of North Texas where Will Rogers worked as a cowboy for a while. Advancing foreign-born Senator Cruz as a Presidential candidate further wrenches the Republican Party and the interests of the common man. The border is the only line of control keeping the world of zombies looking to eat American interests at bay. To let just one into the Presidency risks letting the world of zombies take control.

The President and the elites of Boston and Washington D.C. do seem to be in terminal condition on economic leadership. Hardening of economic theory arteries has brought the policy of no-change brinkmanship for dialectically opposite reasons to pump the same political poison through the arteries and veins of the nation with decreasing results. We would expect the cardiac arrest to occur as unexpected as one might expect. Tim Russert looked too-heavy and perhaps living on a diet of bacon bits, butter and sour cream on his baked potatoes along with thick juicy steaks and double frappe cappuccinos con leche. A nice guy but someone neglected to tell him that the fast lane can be dangerous-even Pete Maravich ran to death with his heart bursting on a basketball court. When the nation's economic heart bursts because of sustainably bad debt generating economic policy it will be more than one individual that suffers.

The diminishing returns of increasing public debt are interest payments on the debt that will soon enough be approaching a trillion dollars and the higher interest rates the government must pay for loans. In a low inflation environment that bites. If inflation develops though the costs to consumers rise. Seventeen trillion of debt on the way to 20 trillion before President Obama passes the buck to the next guy will be biting youth of today for a long time. It should require just some simple common sense to stop the economic bleeding with emergency economic policy, yet that will need to wait until a responsible adult with intellect occupies the White House.

It will be necessary to cut spending, increase taxes, halt illegal immigration and develop reform of capitalism and government simultaneously. Those are tasks larger that F.D.R. could have accomplished. Incidentally the F.D.R. couldn't get elected today if he were running.  He just wasn't Hollywood enough-especially with the handicap.
