The
founders of the United States had a special greatness creating and setting the
governing paradigm of the present and future United States. It is a Utopian
doctrine permitting free people to develop their own interests with an
egalitarian, classless social structure; that is without legally superior
social classes. Today the founder’s paradigm has taken a lot of heat from the
left who misunderstand and/or hate many works of the past.
The
Declaration and Constitution were the greatest secular governing articles ever
constructed by man. The founders were a philosophically enlightened group
working in freedom with high regard for God who is no respecter of persons;
they knew free people need to be equal before the law. The founders created
from nothing, in a new nation, a utopian doctrine supporting individual
self-determination without coercion from authorities. It was a practical
doctrine in several respects, as well utopian.
The
founders knew that the history of mankind is wicked regarding oppression, war,
exploitation and crime. As Christians they understood that mankind has a
problem of original sin undermining the best intentions the better elements of
humanity may work for. Therefore the founders created a tri-partite government
designed to police itself and prevent corruption and takeover of government by
cliques, tyrants or malevolent turkeys. The constitution was a forward-looking
document that allowed room for the new nation to grow into, when it grew up.
Human society including that of founders’ day
wasn’t perfect. Slavery around the world and was rich business; some of the
citizens did not have full right to vote, or a right to vote at all, and might
have been at war with the U.S. government in some cases. That is why the
constitution was something of a Utopian doctrine that set a paradigm that would
allow growth over time into a better and more perfect union with liberty and
justice for all. The fulfillment of a utopian constitutional paradigm
actualized by and for all of the people of the United States could not
realistically occur in the founder’s day. It could though be practically
founded and allowed to progress in the future toward the day when all of the
people would be free and unexploited, all of the time. The genius of the
founders of the United States in creating a practical governing utopian
paradigm that could actualize over time could not foresee all of the challenges
that would arise in the future of the nation; they did however create
constitutional tools that would allow enlightened citizens to respond to those
challenges
A
free society tends to exist easily in wild and sparsely populated lands compared
to lands that are densely populated. A free civil society may become
increasingly regulated and oppressive as population density requires more
political management for smooth social flow, human health and security. There
may be an inverse ratio relationship between population and human freedom. Free
ranging cattle have more freedom than those packed into a feed lot. With too
dense of a human population density civil liberties tend to erode or collapse
though people have a right to watch society stall in grid lock.
Today the United States needs reform of governing
regulations in order to maintain the march toward development of the best
possible governing paradigm keeping in the tradition and will of the founders
of the United States. The U.S.A. need favor business beneficial to ecospheric
restoration.
Fundamentally three paradigm adjustments or
reforms should be prioritized to continue development of the founder’s
paradigm. The first is ecospheric defense and recovery with adaptation of
economic practices to conform to criteria that support improvement/recovery of
health of the national ecosphere.
The second is defense of national borders to
allow a slow, measured increase of population through immigration without
illegal entry. Egalitarian economics and quality mass education require a
stable, secure population dynamic. Some have said that America has always had
immigration therefore it is always good. That is a problem of quantification
and increase invariably being correct all time. Consider quantity management
problems arising from such blindness in simpler physical systems such as water
management behind a dam (it has always been saved therefore it must always have
water added to it), adding weight to a ship or an aircraft, sending convicts to
a particular prison (over-crowding), reducing food consumption to lose weight,
etc.
The third paradigm includes the first two
paradigms. It is ecological economic reform that will support the social roles
of government in a densely populous nation to support the most freedom, health
and education for all possible. Egalitarianism economically is equal to
political egalitarianism these days and requires progressive taxation on
capital, income and inheritance to forestall increase of an ignorant, wealthy
aristocracy of elitists reinforcing classical, ecospherically harmful economic
policy.
Public
debt of vast scale usually results in cuts to social activities of government
of benefit to the poor and middle class. Elimination of public debt with
progressive taxes is highly desirable. That is problematic for some. George
Luis Borges descried a situation comparable to select attitudes about public
debt in ‘Tlön, Uqbar, Orbus Turtius’-“The people of Tlön are taught that the act
of counting modifies the amount counted, turning indefinites into definite. The
fact that several persons counting the same quantity come to the same result is
for the psychologists of Tlon an example of the association of ideas or of
memorization.” (Exemplifying the challenge of mind over matter; if you don’t mind it don’t matter.)
One
of the paradigmatic challenges of the future the founders could not foresee was
that of the abortion of human embryos and fetuses as casually as booger picking
by doctors and patients searching for a way to power through callous means.
That savage practice brought to the United States by an all-male court in 1971
should be reversed. The U.S. Government would have a necessary role in ending
human abortion.
Fundamentally
ubiquitous birth control will reduce to a low rate the problem, yet the
Government will need to act to outlaw abortion entirely yet allow removal of
embryos and fetuses for the first four months of pregnancy if the woman
chooses, with the embryos and fetuses transferred alive to a federal live
storage vault for indefinite suspension (at some future time perhaps to a cold
planet like Pluto) as soon as technologically possible. The U.S. Government
created a vast national petroleum reserve; it should be able to do as much to rescue
developing humans from the ash heap of history. Human embryos shouldn’t be
killed and discarded by doctors and patients as indifferently as nose picking. An
actually civilized society would not abort human life.
The founders could not foresee all of the
challenges ahead, yet they set a great paradigm to build on and grow through.
The paradigm need be modified only slightly with several liberating intelligent
regulations paradoxically to adapt it to great challenges of the modern times
concerning population regarding over-use and abuse of a deteriorating global
and national ecospheric health and concentration of wealth because of
irrationally exuberant tax cuts gutting progressive taxation required to
prevent the ascendance of a royal class of one-percenters a sedulously
allegiant to global plutonomy.
God is Spirit. The Universe of three dimensions exists because energy in two dimension slows down from light speed when encountering the Higgs Field picking up a third dimension along the direction of travel. No one knows much about what energy is in two dimensions. point 'particles' have zero dimensions and strings one I believe. Spirit that is omniscient and omnipotent flexes His Intelligence and all things exist as He willed, yet it always was-even a Multiverse-fully actualized in a portion of His thought. Leibniz believed in spiritual monads (like a zero-point virtual energy bubble-dot), and Plotinus interpreted Plato in a way that makes the realm of forms and the Intelligence resemble the Apostle John's paradigm of "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."
On 'what is morality'-
Morality, some have said, is a description of what people actually do socially to set rules of conduct. Thus some morality could be viewed as good or bad by others not in a particular society. There are numerous ways to find, get, construct, learn or inherit moral norms, yet because people are free and ultimately responsible for their own moral conduct in light of what they believe, different opinions arise regarding what is or isn't moral.
In most spy movies malevolent agents seeking to poison some political victim use somewhat untraceable drugs that resemble a heart attack or look natural. One movie had a tiny cyanide pellet that could be injected by a passerby, kill the target and fade out of the bloodstream too quickly to be traced, so why I wonder would the Kremlin order a killing of a political opponent of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin with the worst possible means to point at Kremlin involvement? Maybe poisoning planner thought investigators would think the Novichok appeared through normal levels of nerve agent in the atmosphere to which Mr. Navalny was especially sensitive.
If Russia's spy service are so expert these days at influencing U.S. voters with cleverly constructed and placed Facebook advertising and fake news articles, how is it that they have become regressive from the era of From Russia with Love with the poisoned steel shoe blades?
Novichok might be the world's most powerful nerve agent; better even than the traditional G.A., G.B. and V.X. Keeping even a little of it about is very dangerous to the spook handling it as well as the victim. Only four or five governments are known to have some of the stuff, and besides that, maybe just a few unknown agencies acquired some during the chaos and breakdown of military supply control in the post-Cold War era. Actually former Soviet nerve agents and Biopreparat materials could be about anywhere along with a few cold nukes. That may add some spice and excitement to government planning for many of course, yet it shouldn't encourage President Putin to use a nerve agents developed by Soviets to reduce political opposition- it gets bad PR the Kremlin might not want.
Vladimir Putin was supposed to have had training by the K.G.B. as a spook; is Novichok killings and other blunt instruments the sort of training they put out back Leningrad circa 1980? What is even more remarkable is the fact that Alexi Navalny was given just enough Novichok to get very ill yet not enough to kill. That must be a very, very fine line regarding dosage. Straight shooter days of Ronald Reagan seem long gone indeed.
President Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize recently for bring the Middle East Peace closer to being normalized with an Arab nation or three willing to normalize diplomatic relations with Israel and for getting the Taliban and the normal Afghans together to discuss bring peace to that nation after so many decades of interminable wars. President Trump also is one of the few recent U.S. Presidents not to start a war of his own- not even a little one. One would hope that he might be able to restore real normalized relations with Russia if he has a second term; one that would allow the west to fully interact with Russia socially and economically without all of the adversity as the Democrat Party has brought to bear when ever they get a chance to do so. I the world's environmental and demographic challenges are to be met by future Presidents that will require partnership with Russia across many fronts.
I wanted to comment about virtual particles and virtual mass, dimensions and relativity. This year I got around to reading the 2018 book named ‘Mass’. The primary point I discovered in the book is that mass is a secondary quality of energy. In the basic Universe there are two-dimensions for energy (perhaps) and there is the Higgs Field. The Higgs Field slows down massless energy from two dimensional light-speed to three-dimensional sub-light speed –particles acquire a third dimension in the direction of travel. That phenomenon allows a three-dimensional Universe to exist with mass. It brings a host of questions too. One question concerns the two dimensional field that allows virtual particles to appear in three dimensions briefly before disappearing. What is that general field from two dimensions letting virtual particles appear in the vacuum of a three dimensional Universe? Is it one-in-the-same as the Higgs Field?
People are fairly familiar with the effects of Einstein’s relativity paradigm upon 3-dimensional mass. What about the general relativistic effects upon quantum particles that have slowed down to sub-light speed. Perhaps there is a class of virtual general relativity acting on energy (particles) that helps form orbits and fields in the quantum world. If sub-atomic particles are subject to relativity, I wonder how each particle and mass might interact with variegated degrees in relation to particle mass.
Virtual particles are fluctuations of a field. General relativistic effects may act upon particles with sub-light speed in relation to an otherwise two-dimensional Universe for energy. It is easy to speculate that gravity could be an effect of concatenated relativity acting on sub-light three-dimensional particles existing within or upon a two-dimensional Universe. I am sure there would be a lot more to it than that. The idea of sub-atomic virtual general relativity is interesting, at least for me, to consider. So I thought I would make a note about the possibility.
The Democrat Party has made lawlessness and racism campaign platform devices in 2020. Everyone should want transparent and equal legal justice for all in the United States. Portland Oregon’s summer of protests and rioting over the George Floyd killing in Minnesota was a fair example of somewhat unreasoned rioting; pursuing economic justice for all of the poor including white people would be more effective than blatant pursuit of special laws for different races.
Former Vice President Bite-me hasn’t said anything to discourage Portland protests and rioting during the pandemic with protesters and rioters failing to maintain social distancing. He had zero concern for the fear and harm leftists brought to tourists, businesses and residents during the three months of daily protests and riots. Citizens have a constitutional right for peaceful free assembly of course yet don’t have the right to riot, threaten and use violence wherever they want, break traffic laws and halt free flow of vehicular traffic, intimidate or close businesses along the streets, harass law enforcement and judicial centers or bring chaos to quiet neighborhoods and homes. Protesters have a right to assemble someplace, perhaps a cow pasture at the edge of town such as at Woodstock or in pro basketball and football stadiums with the help of millionaire players and billionaire owners, to have vigils and demonstrations with Democrat mayors supplying concessions of beer, dope, hot dogs and veggie burgers to protesters attending; they do not have a right to form a mob wherever they wish and simply take over neighborhoods or even loot or kill.
In the 1960s with legal segregation, few protest methods for communication were locally available in the south, unlike the present. Democrat party and Antifah supported mob gatherings in major American cities are harmful financially to many innocent people and disrupt and degrade the civil condition of the nation. Alternatively, hundreds of thousands or millions of protesting twits could have been sent to Twitter, posted at Facebook and other social media to express dismay and outrage, unlike in the 1960s. There are numerous black and leftist politicians at every level able to change whatever laws would usefully upgrade the quality, efficiency and transparency of police and legal justice methods. Numerous websites, blogs, cell phones and so forth exist to insist upon fair legal justice for all; there is just no reason for lawless Democrat Party mob preferences for quasi-anarchistic and senseless harmful protests to occur instead of using the full and available spectrum of civil means of political expression for mass opinions commonly available. The only practical reason for the intifada of Portland and elsewhere is to agitate more Democrats to vote.
In my opinion there is no good choice for President this year. The Vice-Presidential candidates are o.k. though. Maybe government-privileged-insider-for-life Joe Bite-Me and make-the-rich-royal Don Trump should step aside and let their running mates go forward.
Neither Party intends to make a tax on progressive tax on capital, inheritance or income a priority. Most of the real problems of blacks in America are caused by poverty instead of law enforcement inequality. Poverty can only be ended through non-racist tax and income laws that regard poor people of any race as equal simply for being poor; living on a couple of thousand dollars annually is tough in the U.S.A. for anyone of any race. One percent of the people of the U.S.A. are well on their way to having 90% of annual income of the nation. Though 20 people killed unjustly each year in the U.S.A. is reprehensible, so are the 190,000 people killed by Covid 19 in the U.S.A. so far along with encroaching dangers of national and world ecosystem decay.
The Election in Nov 2020 seems a choice between Charybdis and Scylla (in modern lingo a choice between mud and slugs ice cream and cardboard and waste treatment product casserole). Focusing on rational economic issues and how to reform capital to return a national egalitarianism to economics to make America great again (like it would be after Roosevelt and after M.L.K. in a modern synthesis) would be more useful for the poor, working class and somewhat prosperous professionals. The affirmative action class of Democrats tend to follow special interest (of their own class constituencies) political goals instead of laws that work well for all citizens regardless of race, gender or perversion. While intelligent political ideas and goals selection may not one of their traits it could be if their leadership had good ideas and were intelligent (that died in the mid 1980s).
Covid era developments threaten so many Americans with eviction while they are going broke (and Wall Street capital returns record highs) reminds me a bit of the dream-like movies ‘Evictus’ and sequel ‘Convictus’ that were international box office hits that is something like the film ‘Children of Men’. The plot has 30 or 40 million Americans evicted from their homes, rounded up and shipped on friendly freight trains to Los Angeles to live on streets converted into homeless refuges.
The one-percent have the great idea of importing 120 million illegal aliens from Mexico and China to live in those empty homes (being more efficient and productive with a higher population density in the formerly spoilt homes) on the East Coast and Midwest to restart the economy like gangbusters.
Disgruntled homeless Americans that haven’t fled north to live in New Bohemiatopia (formerly named Portland) Oregon to beat the heat and join in nightly big juju in the wooded park outside the Federal Courthouse tire of the risk of using the steep slopes of the Los Angeles river for a public privy, agitate for better policing without (Fearless Fodsick seven-shots-in-the-back to be safe) brutality to African-Americans. The richest Americans, disgusted with the ingratitude of the homeless after all of the free Twinkies they have allocated to them, decide to adopt-a-nation and find South Sudan willing to become sons of the most rich.
Thirty million homeless Americans directly are relocated on rented Panamax vessels a thousand feet long to Somalia and furthered on to South Sudan over a new railroad they build contributing free supply side gandy-dancing labor. In South Sudan they are further rehabilitated and trained to learn useful semi-skills like advanced digging part 2.0 in order to make South Sudan great again. As a U.S. territory South Sudan catalyzes good jobs for the region while illegal aliens in America with a pathway to citizenship working in America clean up the mess in Los Angeles when they aren’t working on PhDs or doing volunteer work at leprosariums hospices and soup kitchens.
There
are a number of unusual quantum effects that are not observed in the
macro-three-dimensional world of ordinary experience such as quantum
entanglement and quantum uncertainty. One wonders why such effects occur and
what might be inferred about the quantum world for-itself.
The
Higgs field seems to be the main illuminator for finding explanations of
quantum effects and cosmology at a deeper level. The Higgs Boson is the force
carrying particle of the Higgs Field, yet what is the cause of the Higgs Field
one wonders, for all fields such as electro-magnetism usually have a causal
explanation.
I have read that the Higgs Field slows down
about all quantum particles travelling at the speed of light in 2-dimensions to
sub-light speeds, and that in so doing the quantum particles add an extra
dimension- a third dimension along the line of travel. For that reason three
dimensional particles and mass appear to exist, and actually might be said to
exist as a secondary effect of energy. Mass particles fundamentally are energy
particles slowed down into three dimensional and clustered together with
combinations of other forces like the color force and strong nuclear force.
If the basic Universal condition is just two-dimensional
until the energy of it encounter the Higgs field, then mass of three dimensions
still interacts with the two-dimensional, non-locked into a steady state
decohered from two dimensions and masslessness. That two dimensional phase of
the Universe may have short quantum lines to travel than those of three
dimensions and account for some of the strange quantum effects observed in
three dimensions without adequate explanations, yet what is the Higgs Field; is
it a basic aspect of a second dimension presentation of energy? And what is the
two dimensional Universe like in-itself before it is observed through the
complicated three dimensional structure and filter? Wouldn’t its time component
be at least entirely different than that of three dimensional mass that is
besides subject to relativistic laws regarding the motion of three-dimensional
mass?
Interestingly
this sort of speculation about two dimensional energy underpinning the three
dimensional mass of the Universe gives one material to speculate regarding
pre-existing structure before any mass of the Universe formed or evolved in
three dimensions. Evolution often entertains a presupposition that everything
arose from nothing (as the book of Genesis says it did with the Universe being
void and without form), perhaps virtual particles or vacuum energy. If there is
two-dimensional energy prior to that, possible with unknown yet actual
structures, one finds antipathetic inferences regarding structure.While that might be a problem for
evolutionists that prefer an absolute void at time equal zero (T=0) it isn’t a
problem theologically; In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
God.Spirit preceded three-dimensional
mass and two-dimensional energy at some point.
Those
searching for absolute nothingness to reinforce atheist beliefs in nothing
might obviously reference one-dimensional points from nothing being the
primordial substance-energy appearing from nothing as virtual particles.
Virtual particles are statistical fluctuations of an energy field however, so
one would guess that a fundamental power need exist in order for virtual
particles to appear from ‘nothing’. One-dimensional particles make me wonder
what came first; the particle or the dimension? At any rate at some juncture
something existed prior to nothing, even if it was the absolute energy clump in
zero dimensions sufficient for all possible Universes and their virtual vacuum
energy spanning an infinite Multiverse; structure before nothing and a single
dimension.
