President Bush's 1950's Era Economic Philosophy

The straw man arguments president G.W. Bush defends his failed economic policy with that builds a vast federal debt, outsources modernization of manufacturing and floods the nation with illegal aliens might have had a solid rationale in the 1950’s amidst a minority of economists. The President’s policy belief is that isolation and globalism are the only choices available; as if it were actually possible for America to be isolated in the 3rd millennium with present transport and communications technology, or as if the Federal Government had an authority to restrict global business to its own liking…the President has signed away through trade agreements that sort of somewhat obsolete opportunity and should know better.

The federal government should serve the people of the United States within the global community first and maybe help out global corporations too. Federalists began government policy with Hamilton choosing to create corporate welfare in order to pump prime manufacturing, and the premise that the federal government had a right to promote the general welfare of the people in road building, schools and all manner of previously non-governmental areas was off and running.

Today the federal government should promote national business inventions that liberate the nation from reliance on foreign trade-deficits or ecological destruction. Simply pointing to a potemkin unemployment rate that finds many Americans not reporting, underemployment and cheap labor work for foreign corporations is as harmful as claiming the no child left behind school policy that has 1/3/rd of students failing to graduate from high school and 50% of blacks failing to walk down the aisle to jive with the teach-tech is a successful policy (Newsweek or Time article recently).

The Tongass Forest policies of the President are equally obsolete slaughtering valuable stands of old growth and cedar for quick cheap profits for his timber felling supporting corporate types in Alaska. Once gone the old growth never returns…sycophants at Department of the Interior lamely claim it does no harm to wildlife (they didn’t add that the wildlife are vacationing on the moon).President Bush has raised the federal debt to an all-time global high along with oil prices for his oil compadres.

A recent magazine article describes how electric cars can be made at home or for hire from 8000 to 20,000 dollars that get maybe 150 miles per charge up. With solar panels one can charge an electric car in a parking lot and drive around Texas or wherever without paying a dime for fuel…why not accentuate then positive a little? One converts a chassis from an old car with a new electric motor, and some tech changes could make them much more efficient…save that second ‘car’-the SUV or truck for gas guzzling heavy payloads not mall-hopping.

Thomas Jefferson wrote presciently about President G.W. Bush’s federal deficit planning…that deficits are made by federal officials so ‘it never (can) be paid, but always (is) to be a thing with which to corrupt and manage the legislature”. My interpolations for clarity, in parenthesis.

Plato's Realm of Forms

Neo-Platonists such as Plotinus who wrote seven hundred years after Plato understood Plato's thinking about as well as possible I would guess. I am not being too technical here with a reply; philosophy has so many books and topics, and life has so many diversions that it isn't possible to be continually immersed in one particular philosophical subject.

Plotinus read Plato and studied at Alexandria Egypt amongst other places, and wrote a group of tractates called 'The Enneads' or groups of essays in six books of nine each. A free version of the enneads by McKenna and Page is available on the internet.

Plato's realm of forms is an abstract aspect of the Universe or beyond the Universe. One might consider Plotinus' explanation and development of the realm of forms like Dante’s trilogy about the Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradisio in that it is a sort of cosmogony or cosmological map of how things are.

Interestingly Plotinus' ideas fit in rather well for modal logic deliberations on Christianity and Quantum Cosmology...I wrote a little book of essays that just tried to survey some of the Genesis/Cosmology/Physics issues in 'Creation and Cosmos; The Literal Values of Genesis'.

Plotinus had a belief that God or 'The One' is absolutely perfect and contains everything that could ever be sort of non-spatially, non-developed if one might imagine a Shannon entropy totality like a black hole of all knowledge compacted to a singularity yet without dimension at all. The One is absolutely perfect and can't be described very well.

The One in some way (here is the tough part for physicists) emanates 'ideas' effortlessly outward, perhaps one can imagine 'radiation' of knowledge and reality into a new extension of God called 'The Intellect'. The Intellect is the realm of forms. It has everything that could every be throughout all time, and everything that ever was sort of as an abstract and non-material idea. Plotinus' 'The Intellect' or Plato's realm of forms has virtue, goodness and every sort of quality too. Maybe one could think of it as the realm of perfect blueprints.

'The Soul' is the next or third stage of 'The One'. The Soul is equivalent to the Universe, perhaps that created by a big bang or the Spirit in Genesis with the 'let there be light' command.

Plato's allegory of the cave is about mankind living in the material world of The Soul and unable to see the true light higher up beyond the cave (the cave is the Universe). Plato probably developed the theory of the realm of forms to explain and relate particulars and universals, time and change, and of course built upon the pre-Socratic philosophical ideas. Plato's realm of forms was a concept of pure genius that hasn't been surpassed or made obsolete today.

If one reads the April 2006 Scientific American book review on page 100 of 'Beyond the Standard Model', or reads Green's 'the Fabric of the Cosmos' multi-dimensional universe theory as a consequence of M-Theory can be considered briefly with books like Adam's 'The Five Ages of the Universe'?. Plotinus would have the material world as the farthest from 'The One', and of course Satan and other created or even agnostic or atheist beings in the imperfect and broken material world/universe that chose to not return to The One would quite naturally have a long cruel time on their own in a way as far from order and reason as possible. Jesus Christ is the expressway to The One through his atoning sacrifice (I just had to write that...it will be helpful eventually for believers anyway).

The material universe may have a big bang or a big crunch, but for immortal souls being in the wrong protocol will be quite difficult.

Souls too are of The One, it’s simply a matter of being in the right theo-space-time coordinate relationship that the difficulties and progress arise. Trying to understand the realm of forms with referring to it within a theistic and spiritual context is de trop...It’s all about spirit.

Mexican Marchers Softening Up Senate 'Hankies' For Knock-Out

Mass Illegal Invasion Attacks U.S. Civil Liberties

Stopping the Mexican volkerwanderrung across the border to anarchize capital build-up and rational expectations in economics of America’s poor to middle classes will take more than a scalable wall easily surmounted by grappling hook and knotted rope that prevents border patrolmen from seeing whom is on the other side digging a tunnel. It will take an elevated border patrol barrier highway that allows quick response time and a highway with a berm wall on the south slope.

Mexican workers seeking lebensraum have arrived at a national border that isn’t located in the twilight zone’s frontier show of the 19th century. The nation is environmentally and economically full, and any invasive input bumps out someone or something including U.S. political civil rights which are more than a right to invade, plunder and export.

A Simple Plan for Border Control

1)Build an elevated border patrol highway (the G.W. Bush Hover way) to keep aliens out.

Three Years After the Border is Secure

The U.S. Senate could begin to consider the labor and legality status of all U.S. workers. At some point when immigration is controlled and limited to 250,000 annually from all input every American worker would need to be documented and made a legal resident if congressional needs for foreign workers in specific occupations and personal background checks determine it feasible. No leverage by bum-rushing illegals for citizenship should ever be considered. The ‘Hankies’ of the traitor branch of the Senate may be well meaning or operant conditioned (Sen. McCain graduated from the Ho Chi Minh Advanced School for Non-Theoretical Captivity and Torture and may be conditioned to admit aliens that will agreeably paint his toes pink) and in a position of leveraged weakness will give up U.S. border sovereignty, legalize illegals sine die, flood the nation with another 30 million illegals the next twenty years, make citizens of illegal entrants of dubious loyalty and a farce of Ellis Island’s precedent when the nation had a frontier and needed millions of people to populate it.

Toynbean analysis indicates that the external proletariat of the fine second world nation of Mexico combining with the internal proletariat of illegal aliens are a drafted phenomena of a non-creative majority entering a global phase before burnout and decline within the broader flow of an interregnum of civilized global structures. Typically the formerly creative majority becomes a non-creative minority and somewhat repressive perhaps through fossil fueled corporatism and neo-authoritarianism.

Unfortunately the global environment is in a dwindling phase, and the chance of the largest advanced temperate climate nation on Earth becoming managed by advanced environmental governance will likely be lost with the corporatist preference for a nation of cheap disposable workers of low political and environmental skill. The issue of border control is a fork in the road perhaps even for global survival of the human population. Presently the nation has an imbecility level of political leadership on environmental issues, and if the United States has ongoing millions of immigrants from second world nations the health of the planet will decline too as the U.S.A. becomes a drag upon insinuations input of ecological rationality into the bought and paid for corporatist box of hankies that tends to advance straw man issues to deflect political criticisms as one wishing to keep a bucket empty might punch in five new holes for each one patched with chewing gum.

When a materialist culture overcomes natural boundaries, it also destroys moral boundaries without an indwelling Spirit of God.

With the new anti-environmental Department of Interior Head the State of Idaho has asked for federal permission to lobocide a pack of 53 wolves along the park border that may eat some of the Elk that wealthy hunters like to use for trophy sport; wolves are endangered not Elk. U.S. Highway construction politicians should seriously calculate the number of animal road kills created by highspeed traffic running over low speed night-blind animals and make more underpasses for the wildlife.

The Senate has no imagination and is so Corporatist that lobbyists probably devise the legislation on immigration reform. A Mexican border G.W. Bush National Patrol Road could be made on rip rap rock with a steep side south that would be an effective border barrier when coupled with mobile surveillance cameras on a horizontal basis, customs/border agents and scientific devices.

With any sales acumen that would coincide with national interest a border barrier highway project could be sold as the centerpiece of a regional construction, environmental and solar and wind power project. Fresh water could be sold to Chijuajuans as well as parched Phoenixers doing their best to accelerate global warming with thousands of square miles of heat absorbing asphalt.

The Senate’s inability to prioritize a border control barrier along the Mexican boundary highlight the inability of the Senate to squarely address reality in such a way as to benefit American citizens and their security first. Bureaucratic baloney bills that offer various schedules for amnesty, residence, citizenship, illegality, felony categorization and associate maze for electoral pettifogging are no substitute for the real issue of physical border control that will continue to be a bleeding enormity for the U.S.A. so long as the corrupt members of the Senate hide behind procrastinating paper-shuffling post-hoc labels for policies actually set in Mexico.

Two thousand miles of border barrier would not be difficult to build with the bloated federal highway lobby. It need be just one lane atop rip rap rock piles with a steep fence built along the southern slope. With any imagination the barrier could be a good marketing tool for wind and solar conduits, multi-disciplinary alternate energy generation, and also serve as the first line of security for an eventual transcontinental sailboat transit channel (with solar powered electric motors) that would have parallel canals with lids of glass to evaporate and collect freshwater from the saltwater solar-pumped and siphoned from the Pacific Ocean.

Fresh water could be sold to Chijuajuans as well as parched Phoenixers doing their best to accelerate global warming with thousands of square miles of heat absorbing asphalt. The Senate is scandalously dull. The bleeding heart compassionate conservative approach to papering over the immigration issue should be shredded, and the barrier population control line built first. The 12 million illegal aliens will wither away with many returning to Mexico on their own eventually, others retiring, and ten years after the border barrier stops all illegal immigration it might be appropriate to consider a renormalization of illegals to legal status if they go home to Mexico first and renounce their citizenship and foreign allegiance. Stopping the inflow is the priority.

'As we look out into the Universe and identify the many accidents of physics and astronomy that have worked to our benefit, it almost seems as if the Universe must in some sense have known that we were coming'-Freeman Dyson

Solar Still Water Barrier Component of Border Security Enterprise Zone on Mexican Border
Some may wonder about the bizarre process that lets evaporated seawater fall to the Earth as freshwater rain. Impossible it is not.

http://www.fsec.ucf.edu/ed/SM/ch4-solarthermal/rainmachine_teacher.htm Here is a basic primer on the evaporation part of the hydrologic cycle

http://www.aquasonics.com/ 'Rapid Spray Evaporation Water Desalination Technology '

Evaporation and condensation of saltwater is a low cost method of creating freshwater. The canal sections would be a large solar still. The salt stays in the larger medium and the freshwater evaporated condenses on the shaped glass cover of the canals and falls to troughs outside the canal yet within the condensing cover. The engineering is malleable. This is a concept I have thought about for some time. It has application potential even in Los Angeles and a Venetianization of that city.

Noam Chomsky's Phenomenological Approach to Politics

(:arrow:)Noam Chomsky may have an unbalanced linguistic approach to political and historical analysis. brilliant linguistic that he was the associations made in the 50's and 60's between psychology and linguistics tended to bring an anthropological paradigm to Epistemological criteria that disregarded the content of human history and political thought as well as institutional development.

That is one of my pet peeves regarding academic specialization that brings a non-holistic analytical paradigm to global politics emplacing inadequately based premises to serve faulty conclusions. That sort of palaver works well in providing explananda to second world peoples without a surfeit of quality independent scholarly researchers.

It is common that philosophy and history are cast aside by social commentators providing their analysis of politics and national groupings. Russell created a term 'the complete complex of compresence' that would have referred to everything that exists at any given moment. The complexity of time vectors and structural relations of the world, the thought of individuals and geophysical potential for the Earth and its locales are difficult to concatenate within a narrow linguistic-political paradigm.

Chomsky is correct of course in noting that politicians develop rhetoric of a novel nature to justify activity toward political ends. Obviously Chomsky would have read Sartre's writings about Algerian colonialism and 'The Critique of Dialectical Reason'. Chomsky may not have read Turner or Steele, may not be an expert on the history of metallurgy or invention, and perhaps isn't aware sufficiently of Toynbee's writings on civilization's progress and how since Mussolini Corporatism has become an increasing global force.

Noam Chomsky has made many fine remarks about language and fewer about logic, yet his interpolations into the western politic have decreased in value as his approach has failed to achieve even the level of Ralph Nadir's constructive engagement with the politics of the United States. Noam Chomsky is a fine rogue scholar that doesn't seem to even take sufficient science into his political paradigms nor turn the corner himself into entering the political arena in order to make actual changes through leadership in important economic and environmental areas that are a direct axis of power for political activities and rhetoric.

Noam Chomsky must have a good awareness of population dynamics and the limits of growth on Earth within the fossil fuel and rectilinear housing paradigm. given the parameters of Rousseau's Social contract that such exists to guarantee the individual rights of all, the declaration of impendence differed from the social contract in finding the rights inalienable and given by God rather than completely alienable and given by a social contract that is invalid if any are excluded. Many neo-socialists today bog themselves down in such interstitial concepts and fail to see the forest for the trees--avoiding totalitarianism yet accomplishing vital political activities should be the right goal for most nations, though of course each differs in it's prioritization of its agenda items.

Maurice Mearleu-Ponty and others developed a more phenomenological approach to social paradigms that is fine and good if one is a French State shattered by war with a history of ineffective government making wrong decisions. Necessarily the people tend to cluster together for mutual support as best they are able under the hurricane winds of power politics that beset the European Continent in the 20th century. Sartre perhaps began his existential analysis from a dual phenomenological and rational approach, yet unlike Chomsky who seems so far as I know to continue to retain a phenomenological basis for political actions rather than an historical with a large history of practico-inert social content in back of the present.

... Chomsky and others including the Venezualian dictator hugo Chavez would do better writing science fiction political novels setting forth their dystopian or alternatiuvely utopian visions rather than just collecting political tithes from the people for occupying powerful social situations. Toynbee noted that civilizations fail sometimes becoming ossified and unable to change. Modern mass society in relying on fossil fuels and rectilinear housing cannot well change overnight and is making dangerous social catastrophe buildups perhaps.
Monolithic domes have an effective r value for insulation of over a 100, can survive hurricanes and cost 60$ per foot. Building large numbers of domes that use no net energy for lighting or heating/cooling beyond what the home power wind generators, fuel cells, solar panels and such can produce would be a revolutionary social adpatation.

(:arrow:)Saddam Hussein and his oil-heavy Baathist political party achieved power through terrorism and during the sanctions era allowed perhaps a million innocent, vulnerable civilians to perish. That democide could not be allowed to continue and the Clinton administration as well as the United Nations were not able to address it adequately. Those dead innocents that starved or died from lack of medical drugs or treatment (so it was reported) were not junk to be swept under the international rug of population control.

Human sin and greed evidently is so pervasive that President Bush felt it necessary to lie to the public to have the opportunity to end the Hussein regime. Before the war the U.N. had every opportunity to just vote to call it a day and turn Hussein loose to wage chemical war or attack whatever neighbor nation he liked, and in the United States at least it would have been a survivable specticle. For some reason the U.N. wanted to keep the sanctions going perhaps because the food for oil program was providing kickbacks to international politicaians from various nations.

There were three basic choices regarding Iraq and none were good

1) End sanctions unilaterally

2) Continue sanctions indefinately

3) Militarily remove the regime (which was non-compliant with U.N. terms of surrender from the prior war)

Today Iraq politicians cannot even vote to have a seated government, fair and equal shares of oil for all the people of Iraq, an Air Generator or solar panel for each Iraqi, experimental evaporation/condensation Desalinization canals or high altitude hydroponic gardening...what can such people do to have free and easy voting tickets with a lottery ticket stub on the reverse side giving prizes to voters such as free tuition at college?

Corrupt U.S. Highway Should Build Elevated Barrier Border Highway

Corrupt U.S. Senate Should Finance Elevated Border Patrol Highway Along Mexican Border
Friday 31 of March, 2006

Halting illegal alien border crossing is the necessary first step in the process of immigration reform. Globalists in the Senate wishing to enhance the employment cheap labor pyramid ploy want to flood with illegal or legal aliens the U.S.A. violating categorically the spirit of the social contract that unlies all constitutional government of the willing.

The United States and Mexico must some day address evironmental and population problems of vital international importance. The United States should have a maximum of 300,000 legal immigrants annually selected from all the world and just just Latin America. Excess U.S. need for cheap workers should transform into new employment in nLatin America. Fuel cells, solar and wind power should displace centralized power for home and automobiles...place power lines and interties to highways for electric cars.

Suetonoius or some other Roman historian said that it was Julius Caesar that gave the name Germans to the people of Transalpine Gaul. Caesar it is said encountered a tribe resisting his legion's advance to and across the Rhine (eventually a giant apparition of a woman told him not to go farther so he stopped) that was called the Germani; naturally the name became eponymous for all the tribes of the area of which the Germani was just one.The loss of another Germanic tribe named the Bastarni one winter a few hundred bc traveling from Turkey to points west when they fell through the ice of a lake and drowned (this isn't the Sergey Einstein movie about the Teutons incidentally) is an historical tragedy worthy of a good script. If they had made it to Gaul and met Julius Caesar in war the name of the people of that region for ever would have matched up with the family background of the savior of Europe in a secular sense Charles Martel.It isn't about race that the issue of controlling population flow along the Mexican border is about. Mexico nearly supported the Reich in WW II and were slow to declare. Zimmerman tried to get them to sign a treaty with the Axis.Eventually viable entities need to control population flows. When the American west was a frontier an open border made good sense. As much as some might like to use downtown L.A. for a bon fire of the vanities, some would claim ownership of it and expect financial compensation of filthy lucre.The issue is entirely about exploiting labor and stressed workers chasing work to the point of criminal transformation. This all is good substance for tragedy in Aristotle's criterion incidentally.So long as any group of people can exploit another for profit they will; and no there isn't a necessary Adam Smith capitalist virtue in exploiting humanity. Free markets, freedom of action, security in borders, personal and private property and so forth are all needed for the building up of capital by any individuals.If the border is a revolving door and the broadcast media a raving brainwasher the accumulation of capital in the U.S.A. will tend to flow up, as statistically it has the last couple of decades. Security in the public and private realm is needed for free enterprise and proprietary thought into actualization or materialization of value added production. When one cannot develop rational expectations regarding social change or stability but need retrain and reeducate every five years a net loss of profits results; growth is traded for survival.The flow of illegal immigrants should stop completely and within two years new American investments in Mexico should create enough jobs to replace those lost in the U.S.A. Jobs in the U.S.A. should increase as cheap labor dries up--yet the leisure class will need to accept that they must pay white people willing to do the work George W. Bush would not a fair wage prevailing in the market of perhaps 14 dollars an hour. Possibly medical benefits will need be restored to bargaining packages.I oppose illegal immigration not just because I am single and had no luck getting a well built Mexican girlfriend...quite frankly poverty isolates so I would not be showing up on a mountain bike to ask her to trot along to the mall beside me. The anarchic method of political apportionment as the upper-class senate prefers is ultimately self-destructive for nationalism. The United States cannot find security insinuating itself into a global corporatism nor in flooding the nation with immigrants to war upon 'naturals' or native born 'impediments' to globalism. Corporatism is the lazy person's way to the cheap power slavers enjoyed and will result in one of the global worse case scenarios of conflict, tyranny, environmental depletion and a planet without a plethora of cheap tri-hull sailing craft

Foxx Summons President Chicken to Cancun Coup

President Bush may have an excuse for seeming like a traitor on southern border security; the U.S. Senate just appears aloof, detached from political reality and crooked. President Bush may have been on a drinking and powder binge in Old Mexico in his pre-Colonel Austin six million dollar man redux providing the mex mafia with photo’s of horse head in bed quality of a faux pas, or he could be a programmed savant, while the U.S. Senate is evil, epicurean and globalist. Is this speculation inaccurate, perhaps, yet so is the traditional concept of U.SX. border sovereignty. President Bush is at least on his side of the border while the issue is being debated thus voting with his feet.

President Bush and Senator Kennedy happily seem to have had a concurrence of support for allowing a reversal of the Tao Te Ching’s axioms regarding immigration. These two heirs that seem to have no higher practical political wisdom except for the Kennedy ‘screw the U.S. working class’ and for the President Bush ‘screw the U.S. working class’ have disregarded the venerable concept of allowing the larger population that ‘absorbs rivers like a lowland’ such as Latin America to be in the down position politically and receive the population or waters from the higher nation-a reversal of direction scuttles the technology lead, and ungentlemanly social relations develop on a political level.

If Latin Americans do overrun the U.S. and Canada (Canada’s population isn’t much more than twice the number of illegal U.S. Aliens, so with some intention Mexico could easily annex Canada de facto) the entire western hemisphere will become a second world-second rate plum subject to the eastern hemisphere’s greater population, military and intelligence. The next world war will probably shift to occur in the western hemisphere. For some hundreds of years the west was either isolated or superior, this reversal to global inferiority will place all of the people of the western hemisphere in perennial danger.

Traveling on a bus with a bike and a shoulder with torn ligaments a security guard at Baton Rouge La. Forced me to relinquish a baggage cart that a greyhound baggage handler said I could get to load my boxed bike onto in order to get the transfer done within the half-hour limit before my bus west departed. The guard also tried to evict me from the terminal, and in managing to get the bike physically dragging the box and other baggage onto the next bus I retore ligaments and resumed at least another two weeks of intense pain. When borders or property is placed into foreign or hostile control, bad things can happen.

The U.S. border situation on the south is plainly out of control, and wussy (no offense to Mary Woolstonecraft) Senators compare it to Reagan and the Berlin wall speech recognizing in a canine sort of way that a wall is involved in each instance. In one case a wall is built to keep people in, in another to keep people out. Does the good senator believe walls on his home are repressive too and should be removed?

A wall should not be the object for physical border insinuation of control anyway…it should be an elevated pair of roadways such as exist everywhere with one side straightened up to vertical a bit. The national highway bill should have a spare billion or two for this ‘Hadrian’s Highway Construction Project'.

With two elevated highways for border patrol agents situated a quarter mile apart a good habitat for wildlife could be emplaced with laser motion sensors and other cheap tricks littering the field monitored by agents in red Plymouth convertables and perhaps eventually a canal from the Gulf of California to the Gulf of Mexico could be built using solar powered saltwater pumping stations, siphons from the Pacific/Atlantic height difference and so on. About 100 locks would be required, and parallel desalinization canals could provide fresh water for both sides of the border.

Regarding the problem of twelve million illegals in the U.S.A. today—after the border is closed attrition will reduce the number. If they turn themselves in they would have six months to clear out and could apply from Mexico for legal entry after two years.

Senator Kennedy at Cape Cod may miss out on the worst of the sharp end of the illegal alien issue, but may symp[athize with some merry maids for Hyansisport and with Pedro the groundskeeper. So many like to have cheap labor advantages over their fellow citizens.

As the number of illegals is reduced to below five million, legal immigrants from Mexico may arrive to replace them as legal migrants.

After the 5 million number is stabilized with legal residents, perhaps 150,000 more could be added each year…if Mexico reciprocates with equal number slots for U.S. Citizens to work and freely travel anyplace in Mexico should they so desire. The idea of Americans being ‘mooned’ by Mexicans free to work in the U.S.A. and live as citizens without responsibility elsewhere when they wish or tire of the U.S.A. is onerous. I have tried to get a sailboat boat and rigged back to Alaska the last ten years, failing at that with seven purchases and no returns to Alaska, and would like to be out of here and without the excruciating shoulder pain too. Those damn wage-gutting Mexicans need to give up some of their country so Americans can organize it for their pleasure if they expect to continue to Mexicanize California and Arizona, Oregon Washington Utah and elsewhere and force poor western American painters east to get work in winter. If this border situation is all a result of Presidential peccadilloes while a youth in Mexico, I hope Mount Popo erupts and toasts his memories.

On the subject of the McCain-Kennedy Amnesty proposals...have they considered what sort of pressure illegals will encounter if they can't get 2000 dollars to pay the 'morditta' or 'lobby cost' to the Senators? With the time deadline and theoretical expulsion near a reasonable illegals will modity Pascal's wager and decide to steal the 2000 dollars. That presents a problem for Phoenix in particular and Senator McCain.

Phoenix now has a majority of hispanics so the Senator from Az must mind his p's and q's if he wants to be reelected, and use Mexican waffle notation above the n's. I would trust the senator from Az's honor indefinately, but not his judgment after capitivity by the Vietnamese and their unspeakable tortures. There is a brailliant burglar active in Phoenix that has broken in to something like a few hundred homes making off with several million dollars worth of loot- what sort of pickins will these illegal have in the area if they need to steal a couple of thousand dollars worth of senate graft moneys to buy a citizenship from D.C.? Will there be am amnesty for that too if they are caught before or after becoming residents or citizens?

Regarding the problem of twelve million illegals in the U.S.A. today—after the border is closed attrition will reduce the number. If they turn themselves in they would have six months to clear out and could apply from Mexico for legal entry after two years. As the number of illegals is reduced to below fix million, legal immigrants from Mexico may arrive to replace them as legal migrants.

U.S. Senate Considers terms of 'Surrender' of Border Sovereignty

Like the decadent Roman Senate of the late Republican era, the U.S. Senate is composed of aloof high living globalists with foreign ties that perceive the external proletariat as a bunch of Jose Jimenez's (Bill Dana's character) that serve them with a smile.

The U.S. Senate could build a security wall along the Mexican border and maybe a boater canal later, with good high-speed railway links to the interior to follow and also make illegal entry to the U.S.A. a felony crime unless appropriate bribes are made to oil companies, auto manufacturer military industrial corporate kickbacks etc; alternatively the Republican Senate may make illegal entry an incentive for citizenship status and earned income credits and Republican Party membership.

Other business in the Senate includes;

1) Offering DP World a contract to patrol the borders and enforce ‘security’.
2) Name a ‘Faggot of Films’ to Rule Devilwood film propaganda project development for the 2008 season
3) Appoint a Furher of Religion cycles to Torquemada Colorado.
4) Raise the bar on the federal debt limit to 12 trillion dollars
5) Sell California to China before Mexico claims ownership through adverse possession.

Eminent Domain of Corruption

2008 Elections/Keynes/y Gasset etc.

There was an interesting cartoon of the '2008 Madness' sweet sixteen with Democratic and Republican presidential contenders paired up to reach the Nov. election...the chances of electing a good president aren't encouraging, much less good policies. The candidates will wait until the last minute to express the 'brilliance' of their plans, in order to keep secret the content from rivals. It would be better to develop rational planning two years before taking office and put them before the public to consider in order that they might have a chance to be implemented the first for years. It will be business 'as usual' most likely.

Right wing talk radio has an essential blindness in its pursuit of profits based on corporatism. Right-wingers are something like the fascists attacking the communists in the build-up to the Spanish civil war; they tend to force every sort of democratic criticism or alternative into an extreme opposite.

The extreme right dresses itself up rather innocently in the guise of neo-liberal causes such as racial equality (for consumerist purposes, yet in so doing will corrupt the individual civil rights by transcending individualism with mass indoctrination and conformity) Corporatism developed with Mussolini, yet even Keynes anticipated it before the stock market crash he warned of the vast public debt incurred by the first world war.

Ortega y Gasset wrote an essay called 'the dehumanization of art’ that explained why the realism of the nineteenth century was passed for dehumanization such as cubism, and that coincided with the ‘revolt of the masses’ and perhaps the end of individualism. Keynes wrote an essay named ‘The End of Lassez Faire' that prescribed central banking to control inflation and later he developed deficit spending for pump priming-yet he anticipated corporatist neo-governments as alternative moderators of unrestricted egoistic capitalism. Mises criticized Keynes article as being a remedy like that of prior German neo-socialists, yet later decided, I believe, that he had not given Keynes his due.

Corporatism as ad hoc methods of infusing socialist controls into unrestricted concentrations of wealth in egoistic forms of capitalism that do not consider public interests at all may take the form of boardroom disregard for stockholder preferences regarding corporate directions and planning. Obviously shareholders might comprise a sort of democracy in a corporate context if their interests and preferences were actually the source of corporate policy and planning instead of being simple entitlements to pacifying dividends.

Keynes believed that corporatism was a form of neo-socialism that might modify predatory capitalism that cares not even for national interests, and certainly Keynes suggestions about deficit spending and central banking, controls of inflation and boardroom quasi-governmental functions were prescient economically speaking.

Keynes' views on the evolution of capital concentrations in a social environment from which detachment by individuals is not realistically practical were good considering their a priori nature, yet considered now in the post soviet era when corporatism is becoming the new sovereign it is obvious the Keynes’s point about government functions to stimulate individual savings and development of an agenda to encourage national interests and infrastructure developments in the field of economics and environment were disregarded or shunned outright perhaps becoming classified by corporatist media propagandists as 'leftist' or 'liberal'. John Maynard Keynes wrote at an interesting point in the 20th century when global socialism, population increase and capitalism were all increasing rapidly and prediction of the outcome was a fruitful field of endeavor. In the post soviet, six billion plus population, environmentally depleting corporatist environment with Chinese socialism merging toward increasing consumption and mass consumerism the mere management of monetary policy and inflation seems a bit anachronistic as a philosophy of government approach to economic engagement, yet it is a rational result of the success of capitalism and promotion of egoism in the battle against state socialism and authoritarianism known as the cold war.

Morality has an objective basis within the individual will to exist that is discovered in every human being. Morality is the description of fair and balanced relations between individuals formalized to support their actual freedom to exist, to think and to do for oneself. In the gross economic posture of the world the individual right to act as freely as possible, and to have his social, personal and economic rights secured so far as possible from collective actions by corporations, governments, criminal organizations or adverse others is a necessary pre-condition for retaining the most creative, healthy and moral economic and social environment possible.

Iraq Force Levels and Babylon

It should be considered that generals often have asked for more and more troops to overcome normal 'wastage' when intelligence is lacking.

General Abizaid recently made a Trotsky-like remark about American unwillingness to give control of its eastern ports to the Emir of United Arabs. Perhaps he plans like Trotsky in both military and political realms simultaneously, or retros the affluent line of Clauswitz dictum about war a continuation of politics to spread a sewer of stench that would unify the dar al harb and dar al Islam in such a way as to make the front line unidentifiable. Trotsky pioneered that technique although not too many generals have been egregiously adept at the art. American right wingers accused Ho Chi Minh and the 'left' that make movies like 'Broke Dick Mountain' or 'American War Efforts are Evil Imperialism by Running Stooges' of subverting the war effort with propaganda, yet propaganda is a few miles short of actively integrating opposition force (opfor) political structures or Vichy symps into ones own economy. It can be risky, and I wonder if General Abizaid learned that at the Army War College or at the Emir's table.

General Haig asked for more than a half a million troops to advance less than 15 miles over several months in a Flanders campaign in world war one while Churchill and others wanted to reinforce Italy--Haig would not let even a few field pieces be shifted east.

In the modern world there are several levels of communication and 'fear factor', political alignment possibilities and so forth. It may well be possible that the administration's corporatists have hidden agenda items delimiting the range of freedom allowable in the ongoing control of oil in Iraq and elsewhere. Certainly the administration is completely ineffective at supporting national U.S. policies that would end fossil fuel use in automobiles before a few years pass. It is a defeatist administration on that, while doing all right in Iraq to some extent.

The Iraqi and Muslim peoples of the area will scrum for control, and the area may be as peaceful as Northern Ireland during 'The Troubles' for some time. It is difficult to predict the future, yet likely the Bush administration will leave a strategically challenging situation for the next administration that it will be unprepared to administer while attempting to balance the federal debt being raise now near 9 trillion dollars and liberate the people from reliance on fossil fuel and foreign owned autos that are a permanent transfusion of economic blood abroad.

Listening to J. Vernon McGee talking about the book of the revelation it is interesting to consider America's present activities at building a possible future Babylonian commercial center that trades with all the nations of the world, literally. If there is an evolving second world or oil based axis of politics Baghdad might technically serve as a midway between China, Africa and other southern hemispheric or low latitude nations. Will many be saved spiritually from that evolution is the most interesting question in the context.
