Light from distant space-time quasars
is warped passing select galaxies and made visible as if passing through a lens
or traveling around the galaxy because of warped space-time. The expansion of
space that was slowing down yet eventually changed to begin accelerating about
5 billion years ago may have a similar cause. At image credit N.A.S.A. least one would believe
they might because each involves space as an actual substance of some sort or
at least the existence of mass and energy in volume called space behave
somewhat as if space had it's own nature.
It seems reasonable to speculate that
quantum entanglement in mass quantities may be able to slow photons a little
and create an apparent space drag around galaxies. Alternatively quantum
effects of large bodies of mass boost photons a little as they encounter
concentrated fields of mass and ricochet energized.
I wonder if the acceleration of
space-time in the Universe has a related causality to that of galactic lensing. Spacetime phenomena present quite a few puzzles to consider.
Alaskan
dog races are something of a colonial era anachronism of the days when supremacists
ruled the waves. Dominating slave-dog’s pulling white men across vast distances
of socially separate regions without encounters with slums and people unlike
themselves there are many fans. Beside our objective perspective on the
exploitation of animals for the sport of prosperous if not rich by worldly
standards men (and a few women) how on others view the game?
Interview with an Alien
Question; what do you think of the Yukon Quest and
Iditarod races?
Alien; that was a race? I was minding my own business observing a
dog team in the cool minus 40 degree arctic night moving along the Yukon River on
a drug smuggling training course that stopped now and then to excavate a cache
of chemicals in a package from hidden in the river ice. The dog punisher used a
g.p.s. tool to locate packets of illegal drugs to smuggle to consumers downstream.
With 70 million Americans using illegal drugs and a lot of demand on the North Slope safe
smuggling routes are being explored. So an executive action led me to cut out
the heart of the driver, feed it to his dogs and liberate the oppressed dogs to
run free returning to the call of the wild.
Answer; Yes that was a race contestant. I suppose it’s possible that
someone supplements their sky- high annual earnings to keep an apartheid style
way of life with a better Cadillac pick-up truck with off-road drug transporting,
yet that’s no excuse for breaking the laws of the Yukon Territory or Alaska stalking anyone.
Alien-You must be from New York.
-End of Interview
If
we don’t find too much in such an interview to inform us of public opinion about
the Yukon Quest and Iditarod dog races at least it is known that the Yukon
Quest finish line was moved outside Whitehorse this year some 30 miles because
of thin ice on the river and that the Iditarod-the late spring race may move it’s
starting line 360 miles north to Fairbanks in order to find some snow. Global
warming is taking a toll on the race even more than the change of diet for many
of the dogs.
While
people were starving in Africa dog drivers used to feed their dog’s King
salmon from the rivers before the runs largely collapsed. Now some of the slave
teams are reduced to eating garbage from restaurant plates collected in
buckets, run through a dishwasher and fed by the bucket load to the
down-trodden beasts of burden.
Maybe
the New York Times should run the headline Democracy
is Dead- Long Live Corporatism! Minstrels of the herd believe the N.Y.
Times. The Obama administration has given full federal support to homosexual
marriage including spousal exemption from testimony in trial and so forth
raising several legal and moral issues to occupy the nation’s political time
rather than alternative stuff like finding competent economic policy. http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/08/politics/holder-same-sex-marriage-rights/
Is it
reasonable to compel Christians and others to pay taxes to a godless atheist
government with support for official sin in direct violation of the principle
of church and state? Is it fair to exempt homosexuals from testimony and to
give insurance and other financial benefits to those perpetrating that practice
and exclude single, celibate citizens from sharing equal existential protection
of the law? Should anyone be denied the right not to testify about anyone that
is non-self (all except for certain organic relationships involving cellular
synthesis), or be given special legal status in relation to sexual activity or
lust (Pres. Jimmy Carter admitted to “lust in the heart)?
How
the nation came to be in such a state of moral decline is simple to answer. The
policy has been percolating in Boston several decades and has
metastasized with the election of President Obama. In 1999 I read a book on
economics by Lester Thurow who was than at M.I.T. He described four primary
forms of administration economic policy tracks and correctly predicted the
maintenance policy of the following Bush II administration. Thurow also offered
the opinion that traditional social structures needed to be changed. Maybe the
economic reality is within you rather than outside you. That is, dumbing-down
the people may decrease the political problem of incompetent administration economic
policy.
Homosexual marriage is just one step on the
way down that road of complete social revolution empowering elites and
corrupting civil rights that some economists and social elites believe inhibit
certain kinds of economic restructuring. Probably the nation has just
experienced round one in the drift toward satanic scientific socialism that is
not an acceptable substitute for environmentally sane ecological economics
policy with downsizing of capitalism in the corporate form and conservation of
moral principles.
The
queering of the Federal government presents several challenges to those seeking
to advocate for U.S. influence on foreign
affairs. Federal policy is morally indefensible and it is difficult to expect
the second and third world to lay down for a butch commercial globalist power.
With the cold war resolved and the prospects for peace and prosperity ahead
good the Democrat Party had to find new ways to divide the nation and create
global danger.
It
was Mohammahdan Caliph Omar circa 640 A.D. who ordered the destruction of the
great library of AlexandriaEgypt. The Obama
administration’s enigmatic policies have also brought conflict and blood to North Africa and over the Middle East with a growth in Al Qaeda
and Taliban stock respectively in Iraq and Afghanistan. Between book-burning
Moslems and morality burning democrats how can a Christian advocate for U.S. foreign policy as a moral
force for good?
For
that matter how can any moral individual reasonably or persuasively argue that
the trend of U.S. foreign policy isn’t more of a follow Britannic leadership as
a new age Phoenicia commercial Carthage trading with every nation and
recognizing any sort of male, female or group marriage sort of friendly trade
materialism instead of a more ecologically and egalitarian conservative and
moral nationalism?
Merging
with a media morphological soundtrackin into an Eleatic political economy of
doped, syncopated sardines in a slathered, greasy matrix isn’t a preferred
direction for democracy
Why
the U.S. government selected
policies of pragmatic depravity and defeat instead of rational and moral
prosperity with respect for spiritual values is uncertain. If the economic and
moral foundations of the United States are trashed too far it could
be challenging to recover. Federal moral apostasy is a terribly thing to
correct.
The epistle to the Galatians
is perhaps the most remarkable of Paul’s existing letters that have made it
down to us through time inasmuch as the Apostle seems at times wroth with the
Galatians or Gauls of a Roman district that may or may not have been Celts. If
these church goers were actual Gauls it mike be a good idea to change the word Galaxy
to something else, such as Nuraghe in order that we do not seem to
encourage a bad end along with the Universe in some sort of Apocalypse.3:1-”
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should
not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set
forth, crucified among you?” That
may well have been the Gnostic mistake. It does happen that what is wisdom for
man is foolishness to God.
Philo of Alexandria
presented most of the Gnostic metaphysical paradigm before the crucifixion of
the Lord in 30 A.D. The Apostle John may well have encountered those ideas in
followers in Ephesus. It is possible that the Gnostic heretical field of
scholarship wasn’t terribly well received in Jerusalem either. Thus exporting the pursuit of the Gnostic
topic to Antioch, Ephesus
and elsewhere that religion had a lively public interest and was received with
a modicum of tolerance might have been a logical course. Gnosticism in the
first century may have camouflaged itself within the garb of traditional
Judaism better even than Christianity for a time socially speaking.
Gnostics were people thought
of as regarding themselves as having deeper metaphysical knowledge of reality
than ordinary people. Some claimed that Jesus was actually a Gnostic traveler-a
sort of astral projector perhaps to other planes of existence around this
Universe. It is still a tempting yet silly doctrine popular on late-night radio
shows and perhaps with dope smokers of the U.S.A. along with Bigfoot and extra-terrestrials
manipulating the Obama administration’s homosexual policies.
Christian disputes with
Gnostics occurred because Gnostics tended usurp Christian doctrine and
insinuate their own. They might believe in dualism such that the material world
is evil and was made by an evil demi-urge. While some might regard original sin
in a fallen Universe of thermodynamics instead of eternal spiritual perfection
as another way of saying that, the practical consequence of false belief are
substantial.
Gnostics tended to deny
Jehovah as the true God and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ to overcome sin for
those of faith. The emanationist (simplified for Christian practical purposes
to’ let their be light’) theories of Gnostics are though coincident with some
aspects of logical insight into the nature of the material Universe such as the
big bang, inflaton or even a cyclical Universe expanding and flowing through a
thermodynamic process.
Paradoxically those that
believe the Universe had no real beginning-just proximal ones such as time=0
located at a temporal hourglass very small singularity before an oppositely
sequenced pre-Universe shrinking down in scale, share the idea with Christians
that all things that exist are ultimately based in the eternal with temporality
being expression of phases within eternity. At this point physical cosmology research
hasn’t evolved terribly deeply into physical reality and temporality of a
hypothetical multiverse within an eternal context replete with conservation of
energy and ordination by God.
Paul as a student of
Gamaliel might have been somewhat learned himself in Jewish mysticism. The contemporary
of Jesus Christ, Philo of Alexandria, was marginally mainstream and perhaps not
unknown to Jewish theology training centers. By the time of the third century Plotinus-a
famous student of Ammonius Saccus developed a beautiful, logically satisfying,
mystic, theologically simplified cosmology that is similar in many respect to
contemporary cosmological paradigms including origin from a singularity or One
(En Sof-the ineffable infinite) with universal and broken form theories
acceptable to Plato and quantum mechanics.
It is a bit of a paradox
that the mysterious, spiritual Kabbalah shares with Mohammadanism the term for
spirit –Ka that the Egyptians used as
well as ba or shelter. Hence one gets
the spirit house or Ka-ba such as at Mecca and the Kabballah going even further in honor of a
transcending spirit. The spirit house of Mecca existed long before Mohammad’s syncretistic
enterprise.
The danger of simply
becoming intellectually lost as an individual self-standing within the created
material world is a danger that Lucifer succumbed to. Since everything exists
and one may reason within the given steady-state field or any existing
alternate spiritual field, there is a temptation for the ego to alienate itself
from the transcendent God and the opportunity to renormalize from sin in the
contingent field of being and try to exist forever as a contingent being or
even a nearly omnipotent contingent being without God imbued with a false
consciousness denying His existence. That effort is in disregard to the actual
facts of being-that God is all-in-all and the Son is the sole way to
renormalize the estranged-by-sin relationship.
A generic emantionist
paradigm for cosmological origin of quanta of any type from a state of being ‘void
and without form’ requires some emanation of virtual quanta or
proto-particles/strings/membranes etc from an existing field containing or
heteronymous with the void. Math isn’t theoretically of much help in describing
the non-dimensional infinite, indivisible field that emanates with quantum
uncertainty perhaps on occasion into a void.
Mathematics represents
some form of coordinate system-even a theoretical one with scalable dimensions.
Without coordinates or quanta it would be challenging to use math references for
describing one infinite field with no extension and all possible dimensions
unactualized prior to emanation from super-positions decohered into forms in a virgin
formless void. Theological contemplation might be easier, although it’s better
and simpler to recognize Jesus Christ as the only way to understand God containing/promulgating
the one field engendering any potential or actual Universe.
Ultimately Plotinus’
paradigm is mostly a horse-shoe toss description of the theosophical state of
the cosmos without either modern technical terms. Plotinus did not provide
Christian information about how to be saved from the fallen realm of materially
imperfect forms and original sin that is implicit in the temporal world. Living
a couple centuries after the Lord he may have felt that wasn’t his role. The
age was philosophically confused enough and just the canonized Bible such as
the Muratorian fragment provided was a plain and accurate guide to eternity.
Human society without achieving a
critical level of creative, adaptive thought may evolve toward maximum
exploitation of available mass converting it to a high entropy format depleting
environmental sustainability or even the existence of a given planetary body
clumped together under the influence of gravity. Thus one may anticipate
distant future political efforts to counteract the noted characteristic of
purely egoistic use of mass without consideration of the concatenating social
effects.
Human society evolving like bacteria
in a Petri dish consume all available food or mass available to process it adding
entropy in order to provide comfort, prestige and so forth. Yet unlike
uncreative bacteria human society and numerous individuals have bursts of
creative, inventive thought, thus they are capable of consuming and adding
entropy to mass at a far higher rate than that of bacteria. Not simply
consuming food and reproducing more of their own kind to deplete resources
human beings convert orderly environmental mass into vast tonnage per person of
luxurious dwelling, automobile and so forth accelerating the irreversible
conversion of mass with low entropy into mass with high entropy.
One might consider that human beings
in an unregulated social environment might eventually be conformed by external
forces in the processed environment into a maximum density format such as
crystal structures determined by a coefficient of technological capacity,
minimal spacing and remaining resources. The alternative to that might be
species depletion by elites to provide liberal time for existence of the
remnant former minority with quantitative easing of the resource tension via
controversial means (if they were debated) such as holocausts. In times of
resource tension extreme measures historically arise.
A future society with substantial
remaining unprocessed mass and a viable environment might limit the tonnage per
individual for fabrication including housing, transport and so forth demanding
the most extreme inventive thought materially from its citizens if they are to
get the most out of the mass quota. I would guess that a vast, thin polymer
geodesic sphere computer absorbing sunlight and floating in zero gravity might
be an efficient direction if it were capable of sustaining human life inside. It’s
hard to say. Yet it is interesting to thinking about what sort of physical
social environment would develop if forethought and intelligence were required
of builders rather than mass-producing housing tracts with low, low creative
thought involved as if they were farming for-themselves adding so much
non-ecospherically sustainable structure at unreasonable rates of interest.
I read from my science fiction novel on a planet's history of social eco-engineering maximizing efficiency in the use of available mass by citizens within an entropy-reduction context.
Immigration/relocation to America is sometimes held up as an ideal. When Microsoft
named a dual-passport holding (he may have a U.S. passport too) Indian engineer to be its new C.E.O.
the idea of bringing 50,000 more high tech aliens to Detroit was exemplified. Standing before a full size video
screen a C.E.O. of a large corporation can talk face to face with his minions
around the globe. The nation where he is located makes little difference except
as the tax policy favors his machinations and power. The workers are outsourced
abroad at any rate whenever possible. Corporate profits are sent at the speed
of light through a myriad of dark pools to tax havens and can be reinvested in
physical plants of the second and third world without environmental or labor
laws of hindrance.
The Peace Corp ads that ask the question 'would you travel 5000 miles to... should be better said 'would you fly coach with only Skype and a drink in a can for a few hours? Some ideas never change about travel.Perhaps 50,000 more Indian and
Chinese engineers and scientists of various skills could run America’s corporations better than Americans whom are
increasingly so inept as to need low-tech Mexicans to do yard work and other
menial jobs for them too. Is it right though to call high-tech aliens immigrants as if they spent months at
sea in cold leaky sailing ships to reach the U.S.A. instead of a few hours coach class with Skype ever
present to consult face-to-face with home? Wouldn’t the term relocated better describe the high tech
alien peregrinations around the globe landing in the U.S.A?
The mayor of Detroit failed to realize that high tech aliens don’t need
to relocate to Detroit to perform menial jobs that can’t be outsourced.
High-tech jobs can be outsourced via Skype from Detroit, all one needs is capital to afford to hire Indian
or Chinese engineers who will perform the work for the capitalist in Detroit or Gstaad at a fraction of the wage as in America. If aliens with high-tech savy relocate to Detroit
from abroad all they need to do is study U.S. markets to better coordinate
sales from the homeland to the new land of hapless proto-globalists run by a congress
and executive that believes one needs to pass legislation to find out what’s in
it. The prime directive of competent legislation in a democracy is that which
is transparent, well founded and with a high likelihood of working a priori. Obamacare
failed that standard miserably.
If America is to be less
like the British run era of opium intoxication of China recolonized by aliens
relocating simply to annex U.S. political policy to that of Satan in a Babylon
the Great paradigm and somewhat more like the American ideal of George
Washington it ought to secure its borders, halt the relocation of aliens to the
U.S.A. and downsize the corporate agenda while raising taxes on the rich, eliminating
the public debt and finding ways through zoning and private incentives to hire
people to restore the environment in the way that F.D.R. put Americans to work
planting trees around the U.S.A. Even making a wetland out of a parking lot can
be labor intensive.
I will stipulate that I didn't see the Super Doper Bowl between Seattle and Denver last Sunday, the entertainment industry's W.W.A. cavalcade of winners isn't to interesting especially when the sewing economic disorder broadcast media reports the event. Washington State and Colorado are the two states that legalized dope sales so how could they not be the favorites to win in the second term of the Obama administration. Washington State legalized homosexual marriage besides so that state had to beat the legal dope only with a square old-style quarterback that reminds some of Johny Unitas-another notorious square that didn't find playing with the dopey San Diego Chargers keen. News reports of the other championship bowl games of Iraq and Afghanistan report that they are becoming losses through the reverse causality of the administration though they did have help with their foundations. New ways of producing another Vietnam are being delivered yet the financial costs of entering dubiously necessary contests without a syllogistically sound exit strategy will keep on compiling especially with Obamacare, post-traumatic stress injured vets for the next several decades along with their stressed families. Bread and circuses were too popular with the plebians of Rome while the Empire developed its royal classes without a clear line of succession. It's lucky that Brit's royals have so many princes so they can become kings of the political economy for the next hundred years as the United States dissipates its notions of national independence. Seventeen trillion dollars is a lot of public debt, the broadcast media is a force of moral and economic disorder and Microsoft has named someone named Satya (n?) as it's full disclosure CEO at last and St. Ignatius was fed to wild beast in the Coloseum by the order of Emperor Trajan in 107 A.D. At least the fans of doper bowls are satisfied with the way things are.
If
2500 billionaires on the planet-a small number equal to the population of a
very small town such as I once lived in at Wrangell Alaska, can control 33
trillion of the world’s 250 trillion dollars of capital assets and if the
30,000 Ultra-High Net Worth individuals on the planet control perhaps 150
trillion together what are the prospects for egalitarianism in democracy for
the United States? Isn’t it most likely that the 1% will manipulate the
politics of the 99% and that the bought and paid for media will support the
interests of the 1% prevalently?
I
was thinking about the odd situation comparable to if the politics of the United States revolved around the city
of Wrangell and if political theory
and economics existed to support the right of the billionaires to have low low
taxes and through Wall Street networking own much of everything in the nation
and plenty of stuff abroad. That would be rather silly I think, and if the
citizens of the United States had any of the stuff of
the revolutionary founders of the nation they wouldn’t lay down for that.
I
ought to say that the people of Wrangell are ordinary people except for a few
perhaps and there aren’t any billionaires. In fact some Alaskans have built
remote huts without electricity, running water and so forth without even power
tools or a road to get building materials out to it. Instead they packed
everything in themselves. Even so, the rights of those poor Alaskans are
supposed to be equal politically to those of the billionaires of the nation
(that total is less than the 2500 maximum in the world though, yet to be
equitable, not all the people of Wrangell are registered voters).
In
order to reform capital practice and advance preferred socially beneficial
methods of political economy the electorate needs to actually have the power of
self-determination. That term, self-determination
is seldom used in political discourse these days. Formerly in cold war
times against the evil empire self-determination was a prime rational for
liberating the people of the Eastern bloc from communist government
authoritarianism. The East bloc states of the Democrat Party (e.g. Massachusetts, New York, Vermont etc) seem to favor
authoritarianism and concentrating wealth simultaneously-not especially
political progress.
To
reform political economy a polity of citizens needs to be sovereign and not
ruled by expensive bought and paid for UHNW representatives, senators and
Presidents. It is not enough to select non UHNW politicians, they must actually
have an idea about how to reform the economy so competition is restored,
sovereignty of the people and their borders are secured and the environmental
disasters ahead over-ruled. It is possible to locate such individuals yet the
prospects for electing any are nil today. Ralph Nadir was the last candidate
with as much as 30% of the qualification for such a task.
I
should say something about the straw man argument of socialism as the
alternative to oligarchic irresponsible dialectical evolution of capitalism as
is developing today in the class networked mode; its only one of an infinite
number of possible reforms to capitalism. Examples of reform formats are
limiting the size of corporations to 3000 employees, capping the number of
corporations an individual may invest in directly or through mutual funds at
three and indexing minimum wage to mean salaries of the top 25% of at something
like a limit of 50:1. There is more motivation for the poor to invent and
become rich than for the rich to invent or allow others to invent-instead they
have a trait of networking, repressing inventors, repressing rival free
enterprise and co-opting politics to their advantage.
The
99% cannot just redistribute income from the 1% as if everyone got it
existentially from a practico-inert fairy cheese of the Universe with a finite
size and everything will be hunkie dory. One must reform capitalism along real
functioning principles such that it would produce full employment, satisfy the
material and spiritual needs of the 99% (a good utilitarian argument exists for
preferring the interests of the 99% over the 1%) including the freedom to allow
worship of God without coercion from any sort of authority.
There
may be an approaching economic disaster stalking the world like a vast tidal
wave over the horizon in an era before electronic communication and when
sailing ships were the fastest boats on the sea. Unlike that period when it
took months to cross 5000 miles today that distance is just a few hours away
and for an economic tsunami much closer; it could occur at the speed of light
through electronic trading and financial collapse or biological designer
weapons could be unleashed from the increasing arsenal of Pandora’s vast bio-research
box. Global warming could transition the world into a proto-Venus through a
cascade of doom as CO2 levels steadily rise with sulphurous tar sands and
perpetual reliance on automobiles and roads to kill off bio-diversity
threatening the rich tapestry of life on Earth that is interwoven and
inter-dependent for its evolution.
It
is believed that the 2008 Wall Street meltdown was just a vague
outline of the economic collapse lurking inn the shadows for Americans and even
the world economy. Innumerable writers and economists have described several of
its parameters as the blind men once described the elephant. It is time to
consider restoring national economic independence and the well being of the 1%
even as the nation helps with good Christian neighborliness our friends in the
world.
Nooks
with audio reading accompanied by appropriate bouncing-ball along highlighted
text would be an invaluable tool for teaching literacy and increasing vocabulary
and comprehension. The audio reading could be built it yet with capacity for
downloaded upgrades yet some books could be designed for audio e-book reading
by pros with a phrase of highlighted text moving simultaneously. Mathematics
instruction e-books could have highlighted formulae and geometric elements.
What else besides solar recharging ability, more storage space and lower cost
would be good for instructing the third world with super-cheap units and access
to a U.N. free e-book library?
Tech
billionaire Tom Perkins may have expressed a class consciousness archetype for
the rich’s collective unconscious fear that people of the world who
aren’t Ultra High Net Worth individuals might awaken from their dogmatic
slumber and send the rich who control most of the world’s approximate 250
trillion dollars of capital assets to a new Auschwitz rather than Davos, St.
Moritz or wherever it is the rich skink off to for plotting hostile takeovers and
leveraged buy outs of the remaining non-networked aspects of the free world
economy.
For
the .6% that control most capital assets the chance of being removed from
wealth and sent naked to gas chambers could be a recurring though vague nightmare
almost as bad as a 90% tax rate that could restore the world environment, space
exploration and buy new shoes for orphan Annie. Who can say the French
Revolution couldn’t happen again with a mobile snappers hydraulic guillotine bringing
supply-on-demand chop shops to lop off the heads of planetary misers? It’s not
the sort of thing the happy poor think about generally. At least an Auschwitz
isn’t going to happen since there are so few people with that big a pile of wealth
on Earth- they could stay in a couple of Marriots and await ultra-fast snappers
without spending much..
Since
Tom Perkins brought the subject up though I make ask, what use are
billionaires? Is the world better off without them? Are they a net gyp? Do they contribute more to
the world economy positively or are they really net repressors of competition
through networking? Though there is a lot of good tech product that development
could happen in an infinite number of alterative ways so different as to make
it seem like a different world. Maybe one that is more fair, secure and meaningful
to a majority instead of a minority .6% in a UHNW class. Maybe a poll could
determine popular opinion on the question of should the rich should be
relocated to a concentration camp like Davos with no exit (not the Sartre
play)?
If
billionaires control the world economy through networking corporate ownership
then they comprise a discrete monopoly that has evolved its form over the monopolistic
corporate world of the era of F.D.R. Instead of a corporation such as Microsoft
being viewed as a monopoly now and then that dominates a business area, or as a
state supported quasi-monopoly such as the big Wall Street Banks circa
2008-2009 the modern monopolists concentrate capital power owning everything as
a class through networking, speed of light trading in dark pools and purchase
of political influence and favorable legislation such as tax cuts to
‘stimulate’ there economy with a tingling running up their legs. A monopoly of
the UHNW class stops competition like any monopoly does-if it threatens class economic
power. That’s a bad prospect for the survival of human life on Earth that can
use all the competition, inventiveness and innovation it can not to mention
democracy, a more egalitarian distribution of income in the U.S.A., full
employment, restoration of a healthy wild ecosphere and freedom of ubiquitous
government and corporate network surveillance.
Actually
though Americans seem rather doomed economically and politically speaking being
too ignorant to know or care how things are developing or to fix it. In Greek
city-states there were assemblies only citizens could attend. Those citizens
took their democracy seriously and were vigilant against insidious oligarchy
working sedulously to take over the state.
The
least a U.S. Government could do to safeguard civil rights of free expression
in the tech-control era of global communications would be to make broadcast
wavelengths as non-exclusive as cell phone calls and to provide a terabyte of
online cloud U.S. citizen text and video
storage with personal choice of who can read the data. That would prevent the
present insecurity of internet publishing where the rich can just buy up and
silence or marginalize search engine listings and so forth for any web site not
to mention N.S.A. treachery for partisan political purpose. Even NPR took down
it’s free access ‘Talk of the Nation’ Your
Turn discussions area a few years ago where anyone could post a comment on
about anything. The trend is toward the rich and corrupt ruling the Internet.
One may publish anything so long as it’s senseless sycophancy or short-lived.
A
democratic government exists to represent the proprietary interests of a
majority-that is of a coherent culture with shared goals. Historically the
Untied States benefited from the lack of vast social organizations and social
hierarchies that brought Europe into countless wars and religious
organizations to side with governments in sectarian conflict. The frontier that
Frederick Jackson Turner wrote of as being formative of American democracy brought
the benefit of preventing the formation of vast social organizations in the era
before mass electronic communications. Time and technological development would
end that era of course.
Large
social organizations arise to repress individualism. In an age of
multi-cultural social fracture with the concentrations of wealth through
preferred network locations democracy is withering away replaced by the large
social organization phenomena of prior centuries in new forms. A democracy made
of individuals with enough similarities and with representatives from the
people that accurately represent their shared class interests is no more. A
multi-cultural globalism with religious and corporate hierarchies along with
the royal trappings of international political organizations render a T.V.
watching organization man, woman or person of transitioning gender more of a
spectator of democracy, government, church and a tool of corporate business
rather than a peer. The efforts of Congressman Ryan and Democrats of a radical
globalist agenda to flood the United States with millions of illegal aliens
after making the existing millions of illegal aliens in the U.S.A. legal may be
the final nail in the battered body of democracy. The U.S.A. is developing a
decoherent polity without the common interests required for a meaningful
democratic environment. It isn’t remarkable that a dumbed down State Department
consistently seeks to foist a utopian democracy upon nations abroad with
radically polarized cultures no more capable of democracy than any nation where
organizational splintering of a crazed degree prevails.
In
human history the rise of large social organizations seems inevitable and it
requires the grace of God to provide new lands without the repression of
individuals by sundry organizations. Mankind s a social animal and forms
collectives to rule or consume, worship a secular god or provide more bread.
Allegiance to organizations brings strife and competition for dominance, wars
and rumors of wars arise and individualism becomes an anachronism. Little
provision is made to keep the U.S. Government from being led by flunkies that
in decades couldn’t pay off a national debt, win a war decisively and at low
cost, secure the Mexican border from illegal immigration or prevent the going
away concentration of wealth that buys rule through proxies over the masses of
proles.
In
general relativity space-time is a necessary coefficient. To travel through
space near light speed means to experience the passage of time slower than in
non-accelerated space-time. That isn’t surprising; time is generally a change
in the configuration of mass. With less mass such as has an elementary
particle there is less to change. A photon is a photon, a neutrino just a
neutrino with maybe a quark or two about it and not much else. Massless
particles often travel at light speed, yet that’s just their own existential
space and speed in relation to larger clumps of steady state mass.
So
to convert mass into photons that are massless and accelerate them to the speed
of light is a dream for physicists and erstwhile explorers of other star
systems who could as photons travel at the speed of light over immense
distances of space that would take a normal rocket ship thousands of years and
planetfulls of fuel. It isn’t practical to accelerate mass to light speed
because it would encounter the gravitational field super fast and develop
counterproductive increase of mass requiring more fuel. Nearing light speed
mass and fuel values would become infinite.
If
gravity isn’t a field though could mass accelerated to light speed with a
photon engine (science fiction) avoid gravity with gravity-Teflon spray? If it
could maybe after spraying on gravity-deet what about the other fields that
exist in mass such as the electro-weak or nuclear force between quarks? Would
those fields be changed at all accelerating through the gravity field, the
Higgs field or whatever uncertainty field exists out there and lose their
relative condition of decoherence and consistent history locally that gives
them a sense of who they are?
If
there is only one space-time growing, expanding or whathaveyou as a field
decohered from a coherent and uncertain uniform senselessness as a Higgs field
and time is only a description of the entangled and decohered steady state of
the evolving mass that it is, even if that mass is monistic viewed in the big
picture then the past does not exist except perhaps as an
image-for-other-viewers from afar traveling at the slowish speed of light. Time
travel to the past isn’t possible though the entire Universe could be a
recycling thought of God’s that may or may not be set into motion-as needed I would
guess if that’s how it is).
Some
believe though that if the entire Universe is something like a wave in a
two-dimensional ocean juxtaposed with other flat-screen dimension membranes it
might be possible to extract oneself from the present wave, relocate to another
membrane Universe and reinsert oneself, or one’s mapped steady-state
configuration back into the past making new waves in the process I would guess
(again).
It
seems sort of unreasonable to think that mapping one’s mass configuration and
transferring it in some way outside the steady state mass entangled field to
relocate in a hypothetical elsewhen would not add or subtract mass from the
Universe- so such things might require careful balance and compensation or not
as the case may be.
Well,
the general relativity of the steady-state Universe that Einstein developed his
theoretical parameters about are largely a way of measuring or regarding
space-time changes and relationships within it. The field of space-time has
local and non-local components and the relationships of mass with local and
non-local fields of which it is formed might be malleable or subject to
non-standard reformation with the power of intelligent thought that would allow
light speed or faster-than-light-speed travel, if one should actually find it
beneficial to do so.
Perhaps
physicists down the road will discover new ways to quantify, shape, reshape,
combine and/or relocate or reconstitute values of mass clumps along with
attendant human mind within the Higgs field or whatever other meta-field of
coherence and decoherence may exist. That seems like a challenging quantum
mapping project especially since keeping consistent histories of a meta-field
with exfiltrations of contingent field (post hoc) parts of it relocated
elsewhere would probably affect the integrity of a meta-field.
“There are three classes
in America; the 1% in the shining city on the hill, government socialists with
a Utopian vision of class supremacy, and the class of pinball stooges of the
firsttwo classes. As President I am of the millionaire-billionaire class as
well as the government socialist-utopian supremacy class and work to help them
when not to busy playing golf, the pinballs need to roll for themselves." Thus
begins the opening of tonight’s state of the Illegal Union address. Leakers of the President’s 2014 State of the
Union address informed us of the President’s bold plan to expropriate Emperor Domitian’s
style and name himself a King Canute Emperor of Ice-Cream. With the power to
vanquish 17 trillion dollars of debt with electronic instant payoff via the
Federal Reserve and the ability to reform economics by raising the minimum wage
to an index of 20 dollars less than the highest wage he also plans to bring
illegal aliens out of the shadows to increase homeland security with green
cards-a cruel racist double entendre of irony paying back the gringos truckin lorry’s
yore over-the-border.
Details
of the illegal alien to spiffy citizen plan via gringo card provided by the
leaker known as M reveal that cheap labor will still be available after former
illegal workers move into union labor and truck driving jobs, airport security
and the Harvard Law School since without a no illegal entry physical security
infrastructure another 12 million illegals will arrive as soon as the economy
improves to take the 2 dollah and hour jobs in the middle class homes of
Democrats doing maid service, construction, lawn mowing etc.
Since
there are only 92 million Americans not working presently the labor shortage
for the corporate world is plain. Taking up President Ronald St. Reagan’s
immigration reform policy since his tax cuts policy worked so well already-
being recognized in Bush II form as one of the President’s main
accomplishments, advanced Democratic strategist thought recognized that the
better way to assure the security of the rich would be to bring Al Qaeda and
Taliban workers out of the shadows and into the U.S.A. through the illegal
alien to spiffy citizen route. If Al Qaeda and the Taliban have gringo cards in
sufficient quantity then and only then would it be possible to secure the
Mexican border with a border defense zone of moats, berms and patrols led by
experts at illegal entry.
In
reply to the Canute Emperor of Ice Crème’s speech the leakers of Senator Rock
Battle’s reply say that he will decry European reluctance to pay and play their
fair share in volunteer wars around the globe. He noted they aren’t even
fanning the flames of incipient much and generally aren’t good N.A.T.O. partners.
We recognize there is a certain logic to Battle’s thought; if Europeans
won’t impoverish themselves in countless unnecessary wars they won’t become
poor and have nouveau reich countries war in Europe down the road. So what
then is the point of N.A.T.O.?
Recently
buying an e-book reader to discovering turning the page with a touch of a
finger, adjusting the print size and storing numerous books in the same
platform the surprise to a dedicated paperback reader was substantial; the new
platform for a book is that much better. So I wondered where that will lead in
the future. Blogger and other web sites may develop touch screen user
templates for turning pages and communicating with other users on-line or
simply for creating their own personalized screen ensemble. E-book readers may work like tablets with that feature on numerous sites.
There are several obvious trends for e-book readers that will
lead to significant yet predictable developments.
1)They will be cheaper and transparent
like a piece of Plexiglas
2) They will have a terabyte of
storage
3)Multi-purpose solar power recharging
will be doped into the clear structural material along with memory
4)Natural language programming with
blended in recombination of image-icons with three-dimensional structural
schematic cognition will let users design new apps with touch screen and voice
construction. Inventions are largely synthetic recombination of disparate ideas
into a new form anyway, computer programming languages too will move toward
exploiting that process with touch screens.
5)E-book readers will turn a page on
command such as saying the wordpage
6)E-book and tablet servo-unit holders
from little solar powered tripods to mobile brain low-information robots will
replace that crumpled shirt an e-book reader is resting on at a perfect angle
for reading from a sleeping bag on a climbing expedition. If a robotic Sherpa
willclimbMt.Everest in the next decade and a robotic
wheelchair permit the first quadriplegic ascent of the tallest mountain on
Earth with 20 years it is certain that all purpose e-book and tablet holders
that change angle on command will appear within a year or two. I wouldn’t mind
owning stock in that start up.
In
a way President Obama accomplished about everything a Republican of the upper
class might want during his six years in office. it is difficult to believe that either Senator McCain or Gov. Romney could have accomplished so much for the benefit of the 1%. President Obama made the Bush II tax cuts
for the rich permanent, raised taxes on young healthy workers a few hundred
percent through de trop Obamacare insurance law, refused to halt illegal
immigration across the Mexican border that is one of two causes of low wage and
high unemployment for Americans and never got anything like clean
coal on line. He agitated for green cards for tens of millions of illegal aliens
so they can finish off male labor related unions once and for all, made
homosexual marriage-a goal of some of the decadent rich a priority who may have developed some sort of Terabyte single sex mitosis theory of revolution, worked
tirelessly against private school vouchers that would allow something like
local democratic choice rather than mandatory indoctrination by public school
globalists to help restore some competition to corporatism that has taken over
Main Street etc.
The Administration has warned Americans overseas
not to appear nationalistic at all in order to conform with his campaign
reluctance to wear an American flag pin on his suit. At least he has sent a
couple of warships to hover of the Olympic Games in Russia
perhaps hoping that will help our athletes get higher scores. If they require
sudden evacuation from the games obvious the Russians couldn't help needing to
rely on oxcarts over muddy trails for transportation.
The
President so far has set an all-time record for the most citizens not working
(92 million), has become an outspoken advocate for legal dope and seldom
neglects spending time on the golf course or in the company of
entertainment-class millionaires that provide such cover for elites
concentrating wealth on Wall Street without producing anything material. Since
the broadcast media is owned by the rich and/or run by state socialist the
President has neglected reforming FCC management of broadcast wavelengths that
would bring them out of the upper Neolithic era of the 1950s and 60s into a
modern context with tens of millions of high-tech concentrated broadcast slices
allocated to local citizens with new forms of digital receivers. With the
broadcast media run by the rich and socialists while public schools produce a
sort of thoughtless, acquiescent prole-student for globalists to select from
for symbols democracy is slowly dying along with the robust health of the
planetary ecosphere.
With
immediate concerns of 17 trillion dollars of public debt steadily increasing
with an unrealistic failure to reform capitalist procedures along
non-corporatist, low entropy nationalist priorities with an expanded V.A.
Hospital system integrated with the nation’s constellation of low income and
homeless health care clinics to provide no-cost care for the broke instead of
Obamacare that ossifies market competition in a theoretical misunderstanding of
business reality the libertine party is getting what it deserves.
The
question is can failed Soviet government management models it work in 21st
century America? Is it practical for the
U.S. Government to act as a monopoly health insurance exchange brokerage
without breaking the U.S. health care system? Can U.S. foreign policy impose a
placid democratic government on Syria or any other nation
through force when its own perfect system of corporatism with 17 trillion
dollars of public debt, decaying ecosphere etc required more than 200 years to
evolve? I believe the answer is no.
Many
Americans learned that just two forms of government exist; communism and
capitalism and that they are mutually exclusive. They were wrong. It is plain
that a third way of corporatism has supplanted each bringing the worst of each
system along the course of economic evolution toward Unitarian godless global oligarchy
under the mindlessness of media moderators of Plutocrats.
While
it is true that the 85 richest people on Earth has as much wealth as the 3.5
billion poorest it is also true that like the Allan Parson’s song lyric ‘I
really wouldn’t be like you’ reduces the severity of the statistic since not
everyone signs off willingly on globalist economic policy that concentrates
wealth. Yet the defenders of networked capitalism concentrating wealth through
preferred network advantages that dominate capital employ the straw man of
socialism as the alternative. What would George Washington have said about
contemporary networked capitalism?
An
interview with George Washington...
“Mr.
President, what do you think of corporatism and the concentration of wealth
through expert computer program guided electronic trading of Wall Street?”
“Well
Ted, I am all for that. Capitalism was created to concentrate wealth and power
for the few. If they live around the globe and control the U.S. economy like puppeteers
that’s fine. The people never had any write to run their own lives to start
with.”
“Mr.
President, what about foreign control of U.S. politics?”
“I
like to think that we’re above all that in political elites. We don’t like to
get our hand dirty in my eponymous village now do we? WE need a king to let us
know our place but have to settle for Rhodes scholars. If wealth and power are
globally controlled it will spare the people the burden if thinking for
themselves and developing worry lines.”
“So
what about the environment? Some think that the right role of government is t
defend the people from environmental and social threats, insults and decay.”
“Ask
yourself Ted, how the environment can be in decay if the right elites are
managing it from the best offices with the finest furnishing on the planet? Is
that reasonable? There is no need for environmental defense, and the people
shouldn’t expect to own anything in the future anyway hence no need for their
defense; they won’t have anything that needs defending.”
“What
about their rights?”
“What
rights are left Ted? The people realize themselves in being people as a class.
They have class consciousness as consumers and unconscious as consumers of
alcohol, marijuana and so forth after the game is over.”
“So
you aren’t for reform of capitalism?”
“Ted
these are really nice questions. Go suck a lemon is still good advice. I will
say for your edification though that if Adam Smith had wanted reform and not to
let the King run the economy he would have said so. St. Smith was canonized and
the grail of derivatives trading, arbitrage, dark pools, LBOs Hedge funds and
tax cuts require true faith. Heretics may be permanently downsized and outsourced.”
Tom Siegfried wrote a good post on Gell-Mann and Hartle's work on consistent histories and decoherence. https://www.sciencenews.org/blog/context/gell-mann-hartle-spin-quantum-narrative-about-reality I commented... Decoherence and consistent histories remind me that in a sense the prospects for variable quanta in a monistic field are epiphenomenal temporally speaking, so what if the Higgs field membrane is itself just one state or matrix of a more complex, complete system?
It takes a lot of power to form a transitional government that purges another government. The Obama administration, the prime revolution organizer for the Syrian conflict appears to have confidence in its power to fulfill a racial, ethnic, religious and economic purge of Syria .
The White House is demanding that Iran support the ouster of the Syrian Government and that sign aboard the unconditional surrender to fomentation of a transitional Syrian government team. Those multi-revolutionary party talks in Switzerland have the support of United Nations Secretary Ban Ki-moon. The question of if a government should be purged and its population subject to years of civil strife was evidently decided affirmatively a priori by the Obama foreign policy team some years ago. One imagines the temptation for a global ruling class to snatch up a national target of opportunity exists.
Perhaps an international team should convene to study the issue of formulating criteria for purging lawful governments through protracted external support for internal civil strife in order to form a more humanitarian method of purging governments that won't go quietly.
After more than two years of stimulating terrorism, revolution and civil war against the Syrian Government the United States Government has advanced the agenda to including or excluding Iran from taking part in the 'talks' on stipulating that there should be a transitional government instead of support for the existing government of Syria. The American Democratic Party prefers war as foreign policy through the machinations of other military players and perhaps the resurgence of Al Qaeda an other fundamentally terror organizations in the middle east is a fruit of the Obama administration method of Arab springboarding regime change without a good idea of what will follow-a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy procedures since the Bush II administration.
Light from distant space-time quasars
is warped passing select galaxies and made visible as if passing through a lens
or traveling around the galaxy because of warped space-time. The expansion of
space that was slowing down yet eventually changed to begin accelerating about
5 billion years ago may have a similar cause. At image credit N.A.S.A. least one would believe
they might because each involves space as an actual substance of some sort or
at least the existence of mass and energy in volume called space behave
somewhat as if space had it's own nature.
