Joe Miller and Ecosystem Stabilization- Federal Genotype/Phenotype Wave Communications Clashes

Genotypes and phenotypes contrast genetic versus environmental and behavioral elements of the construction of an individual and species. Bird species differentiation from environmental separation as well as from competition with other birds may change their song patterns.

I have been reading the Ptarmigan’s Dilemma by John and Mary Therberge this October in Alaska and made it through an interesting section on ornithological facts. I should mention that the major premise of the book is on the subject of the organization of life and of ecosystems too. As a soul with an avocation in philosophy perhaps I have a different perspective on life and its development from non-living materials and of the cosmological relationships of all things. Yet I like the Therberg’s book for several reasons especially with its attention to detail of the natural world.

When I learned today on the broadcast news of the order of a federal judge in California that the U.S. military should immediately end its practice of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ in order to allow homosexuals to serve openly in the military, I was reading about the number of notes per second some select songbird species can sing—as many as forty. Human beings comparatively have the capability of singing four notes per second.

The competition amongst birds to sing in order to communicate territorial claims and find a mate in more populous areas compels certain features and variation patterns of song coding that will enable them to recognize their own species. Perhaps modern humans in urban environments are better than bird brained creatures, yet we see the same intensity in language development in rave speech today that might be compared with birdsong. At any rate, the genotypes and phenotypes of birds tend to be exclusively devoted to evolutionary self—interest, as perhaps was the federal judge’s decision to force a heterosexual military social environment to openly allow potential predator and minimally anti-communication reinforcing homosexuals openly in their midst.

The evolution of social environments and of governments is a complex affair comparable in several ways to the evolution of ecosystems. Human ecosystem development often comprises simple exploitation of its resources. Americans in particular tend to live in a veritable technological existential automobile commune of variegated structure that reinforces fossil fuel consumption and patterns of social behavior that reinforce those particular social values with a mythos of free enterprise capitalism overlying the continental phenomena of highway expansion and larger vehicles. Environments over-stressed by a given species and generally the human species often collapse.

It is the collapse of environmental systems that is of interest. In reading The Ptarmigan’s Dilemma I was again reminded of the complex interaction of various species in supporting the entire structure. Birds may bury seeds or transport them for sprouting; bovine hooves may create indentations in the sod for seeds to sprout and so on. The natural relationships in any given ecosystem are complex as are those of human social institutions such as government.

In the United States the people have a tradition of government with the consent of the governed. Perhaps today with so many urban Americans, so few farmers and people living directly off the environment as primary producers in a renewable way ( I believe the Therberges called it living off the interest of nature rather than on the principle) the concept of the consent of the governed might be changed such that it morphs into a metrosexual-existential paradigm of bread, circuses (pro sports) and good corporate or government jobs rather than of individuals and families well able to earn a living without being within a tightly supervised social establishment.

In Alaska long ago a miner named Frank Miller and his brother arrived to look for gold. Frank’s brother brought the first cow into the Yukon over the Chilkoot trail from Dyea near Skagway. ‘Cow’ Miller sold milk to Yukon miners by the glass for an exorbitant, enterprising cost, and eventually the Miller family established a roadhouse and prospected along the eponymous Miller Creek on the Steese Highway. The Therberge’s described their friendship with Frank Miller who lived to the age of 94 as well as the ecosystem changes to the Miller Creek area after Frank Miller’s death by.

If Joe Miller becomes the next U.S. Senator, we hope that he will continue the Alaska pioneering tradition of that family name not only on his farm that still has a mortgage on it, but in the entire state as well regarding the ecosystem as a vital and sensitive living thing requiring care and careful though to manage in a healthy way.

Ecosystem succession has a couple of basic theories that I won’t describe here, yet I think that principles of ecosystem succession may apply as well at the human social level of government as well. If the people are governed without their consent such as when onerous practices and polices are forced upon them they can effectively revolt in a variety of ways. Ghandi’s principles of non-violence might be applied through federal deficit spending in order to create such a large public debt that the people of the individual state general agree that a succession to fifty independent nations without public debt might be a better idea.

That is a reason why the federal government’s efforts to force a homosexualized social environment upon the nation in a variety of ways may not be an effective way to create a better society. Maybe creating a better society isn’t the obligation or duty of the U.S. Government yet we may prefer to believe that it is.

Fundamentally laws made by a government can be compared to driving an automobile and rules of the road. Each individual’ freedom to move is regarded as the ultimate good. Gridlock defeats all social interests collectively and may require extreme action temporarily suspending individual rights (such as detours). In theory I do not care if a driver wants to park his car sideways on a busy freeway—he can take his car wherever he likes except on my private property (if I had any). Yet in practice laws regulating auto driving are required in order to allow the traffic to flow freely.

Today it is difficult to advance the Unit6ed States beyond the automobile-highway paradigm of life. Expanding the number of roads and destroying the health of ecosystems are facts of life. Species are being exterminated and the federal government consistently tries to force a homosexual paradigm upon the laws of the United States. A butch government is not a liked government, and dissent may include dissolving the government of the United States through a non-violent succession one day, and perhaps it would be best to avoid that, and perhaps not.

In order to conserve and restore an intelligent ecosystem health relationship of most Americans to the environment returning the sovereignty of the individual states to themselves may be a better way to allow ecosystem conservatives to live in and restore the health of at least a portion of the United States of America.

Well, who can say what the future will allow to develop? Intelligent governance makes the people satisfied rather than unhappy. It brings a balanced budget and a healthy environment. Economic growth occurs when full employment happens through sharing of existing resources and efficiency increases in use of ecological resources and technological knowledge. Economic growth that occurs through the increase of consumption and despoliation of the environment may bring a concentration of wealth and reallocation of natural resource conversion and manufacture production to improve the standard of living of the rich instead of a reduction of the number of unemployed.

A good government educates and reinforces the valid principle of eliminating poverty and unemployment nationally without increasing gross natural resource consumption. Millions of jobs could be created in transitioning toward a renewable, full employment ecosystem revitalization economy with Herman Dailey’s ecological economics criteria. A sustainable national economy with 300 to 500 million people in the United States that is in environmental recovery is not so difficult to achieve simultaneously with full employment and health care for the poor and improving quality of life for all citizens, yet it requires and effort and intention by politicians to accomplish—it will not simply ‘evolve’.
