Writing about the state of morality in a nation such as the United States and how it reciprocally affects and is affected by political leadership is a challenging task. One may have a point of view as controversial as M3 above, or be a more stalwart conservative such as Jerry Falwell emeritus of the moral majority. The moral situation in the United States is presently precarious.
And the questions about the state of morality run into various walls of reasoning that put pre-defined sets and limits to social understanding of what moral issues are. Globalism seems to be at the center of the decline of moral values in the United States, along with technological and population alterity, while medical advances also contribute to the erosion of American moral integrity.
One may apply quantitative and qualitative yardsticks to moral issues in the micro and macro-social realms. Too much drinking of libations or too little permitted, too much sex outside marriage or not enough, definitions of marriage to corrupt its meaning to include any bilateral relationship involving sex and a contract, too much social violence or not enough...etc. In the United States however, and for western civilization the long haul of liberalism was to create a sense of moral accountability and conscience in the individual who would guide himself freely through life running afoul of moral norm enforcements by the state with it's power of condign punishments only when socially legalized standards are violated. Due process of law and open legal proceedings of a transparent nature would deliberate upon the guilt or innocence of an offender arrested and arraigned by legal enforcers.
The Bush administration has chosen to selectively enforce the law, and not to enforce more than 800 laws, which implicitly corrupts the social contract or constitutional form of law that civil society has selected through tradition and history to apply unto itself. Globalism and the broadcast media have assaulted the basis of American moral values as individuals accountable individually to laws, and as self-regulating independent agents guiding themselves through the vicissitudes of life.
The Bush administration sought and got a promulgation of legislation to allow covert arrest, detention and even execution of American citizens without habeas corpus and other protections. The inclusion of U.S. citizens as enemy combatants was unnecessary and dangerous as they are already covered by legal provisions for sedition, treason and other high crimes. The administrations prefers gross international covert measures in response to a foreign political movement in essence that endangers the security of all U.S. citizens from the terrorist encroachments of the state, which has been the greatest foe and the heart of opposition to liberalism through the ages. From the deepest oppressive pits of tyranny in imperial Rome to the dungeons of the czars liberal has sought to free mankind from the chains of tyranny. The Bush administration seeks to move toward the repressive authoritarianism of the Caliphs it seems in bringing torture to the menu of American politics.
While the administration has moved toward the authoritarian right in the vacuum of intellect about how to address the Muslim movements of the world with positive motivations to change toward a better rapprochement with western civilization, it isn't that which is most corrupting of U.S. moral values...instead it is the loss of individualism as the primary social fact toward groups and classes instead.
Ajami/Khalil in'The Republic of Fear' provided excellent sociological analysis of the mutivarious social formations of Iraq from the 1920's onward. Individualism simply hasn't been the basic social moral formation, nor has it been in many other regions of the globe the United States has been doing more business with in recent decades. Americans are becoming assimilated more toward global moral group values rather than the reverse with globalists becoming assimilated to moral values founded upon individualism and equal protection of the law.
Iraqi's under Saddam Husain had a constitution that hadn't much meaning. Constitutions can be altered to be whatever the ruling class wants them to be in essence. Saddam Husain became the state authority in-himself, for-himself and for-others through terror.
These radical restructuring of moral foundations that can occur to various nations may develop insidiously through invasive, pervasive broadcast media programming of the national populous or it may be quite radical through purging, secret arrests, secret mock trials and so forth as occurred in the Bathist Iraq with the Mukhabarat secret police. The Bush administration has drifted into such a globalist swamp that is reinforcing the group moral accountability values inimical to U.S. values since the foundation of the nation.
A remedy for the broadcast media corrupting of American morality would be to reallocate the wavelength resources to U.S. citizen Internet homepages. Perhaps 300 million homepages and 300 million business pages associated with each citizen would be broadcast and available for low-tech download to cheap led vcd like am-fm receivers.
Americans once formed their own groups and political associations without pervasive broadcast group-thinks saturating them. Tribal groupings and even religious groupings did not serve as the highest moral authority in the United States. Since the 1920s and 30's broadcasts have encroached and essentially conquered as the primary moral agents of change followed by medical innovation utilitarianism in mass production from birth control pills to abortions to morning after abortion pills permitted recently by the Bush administration.
The administration has sold itself out to globalism and globalist values morally predicated upon corporatism and sundry forms of group associations. Group associations as the basis for moral and legal conduct pre-empt and eliminate individual moral responsibility with group values being those that are of the highest value. The reason that is absolutely inimical to the well being of the United States is based in the western tradition of the individual as a free moral agent and inventor par excellence able to follow a golden rule with a direct personal relationship to God through Jesus Christ higher than any corrupting secular political value that might seek to eliminate various groups or individuals with equal legal rights.
The U.S. Government should of course permit global business procedures to continue, however it must take a 180 degree turn for-itself to encourage and support legal and social procedures that protect and advance U.S. national and individual interests instead of tossing them into the global stew pot of corporatist power. While national standards in reading and learning have declined, while the borders are porous to illegal aliens, while the China cost has cut profit potential in U.S. industry more than 30%, the administration is spending billions and billions perhaps less than most effectively in Iraq letting its economy wallow in agony and failing to invest enough in Kurdish education and alternate energy production. It has let the U.S. infrastructure remain dependent upon fossil fuels creating federal deficits with the military spending abroad financed by foreign lenders instead of being paid for in cash from current accounts.... The administration's style of globalist moral corrupt subverting individual rights and responsibilities is as lethal as the traditional forms of moral decay usually decried by various Republicans near election time. The tragedy of Rep Foley from Florida indicates that some aspects of the moral criterion are yet powerful, yet was his quick resignation a result of high individual moral standards or because of group moral values near election time? The difference might seem unimportant, yet group and class moral values supplanting individual moral values set by globalists find partnership with a sort of dulling, insipid national laziness economically acquiescing in a 'well, the unemployment rate is just 4.5% so everything must be perfect' political blindness.
The Bush administration doesn't seem to comprehend the sociological backgrounds of the people of Iraq and Communist China well enough, nor that of other middle eastern peoples either sufficiently to get a better positive or constructive engagement with them in an other than the traditional methods of imperialist or remote control politics unpopular with the locals. Even the United States seems to be in training under globalists to be group-thinking sycophants of some hypothetical global agenda 'out-there' that may be more existent in some places in Europe, feminist planning boutiques and who knows where in the U.S.A.
Khalil noted in 'The Republic of Fear' that the British installed parliament of Iraq was perceived as being an intermediate tool of control, and that after the British left it sort of poofed away...will the present Iraq Parliament fare any better?
The Patriot Act is a nice marketable phrase that know is modified to allow the administration to violate the 4th amendment seemingly at will, and the future dictator will appreciate the tools the Bush administration has innovated if he or she should appear one day either in response to globalism in opposition or support. A review here of the necessity of the Patriot Act is beyond the scope of the question of how the Bush administration has accelerated the moral decay or transformation of the United States.
Moral continuity that is issue-based in American politics need be implemented in the popular realm with the adverse agent of socialization of the global broadcast media being the tribe of 800 pound guerillas home-breaking and taking over the streets of the nation ever-present. Issue-based moral debate politically are for-themselves toward the group-think and group identity side of things rather than developing within individual, private, personal consideration. Advanced intelligence tends to develop individually, personally. The strength of the United States and of western civilization so long as it continues to exist should be in strong individual rights materially permitting privacy and invention to occur.
With Sam Walton long gone the Wal-Mart 'made in America' feature is now a 'made in China' feature. The administration may find Al Qa'eda an overwhelming opponent that takes all of its time to hunt and bay at (is the end of Bin Ladin near?), the nation however can't stand still as moral and economic infrastructure decay proceeds.
President Bush just got congress to spend 70 billion for fear of Al Qa'eda, right M1? Obviously he hasn't got the sense of Winston Churchill who was a cavalry officer in his day, who led the last charge of the British Empire kicking butt and taking names historically in fact and symbolically with the defeat of the axis powers.
'The Republic of Fear' (Iraq), if you have read the book, was an understandably fearful place. The Ba'th party created a deep and pervasive terror in the people as a way of doing politics and reordering society with the goal of creating an Arab nation.
President Bush uses the fear lever as his primary political crutch, and symbolically if not in actuality embodies Ajami's observation that tyrants use violence (9-11) when their authority is slipping (the 200 election result and Democratic intafadah)
I suppose you haven't read the Gulag Archipelago either. Repressive and pervasive state authority is a serious danger. Living in such a state would be quite an evil experience.
A nation such as the United States need not fear perhaps, but rational concern with dangers and threat analysis is incumbent upon any reasonable society. The challenges the United States has before it aren't being met very well by President Bush, whom is shirking his duties for the thrill of the hunt to tree Bin Ladin.
The United States needs to conserve its individual moral tradition/foundations in the new age through a variety of means such as the termination of broadcast ownership and use of the broadcast wavelengths. Politically in the middle east it needs to insure that its words and objects match rightly, that is like an architect or auto-mechanic politicians must ensure that their theories correspond to the actual state of affairs, and aren't the equivalent of political solipsism.
The next President should swiftly move to support U.S. infrastructure product innovations, inventions and developments that liberate the nation from trade deficits by creating better, cheaper local replacements for autos and oil. Driving down the highway one can see Toyota, Honda, Mercedes, Volvo Diesel and so on with the occasional ford or g.m.; even Chrysler and Jeep are Germany autos.
If a nation wants to survive and prosper it needs to have a national will to do so. Winston Churchill wasn't an idiot that believed that Britain existentially had no concerns and should act as if it didn't. He was addressing the specific issue of war with the Reich. The British since the war have taken numerous steps to assure the prosperity and health of their national and international standing. If the United States doesn't elect leaders that also seek to develop an infrastructure that leads in the world and that creates national prosperity, environmental health and that has a strong individual moral condition, it may continue decay. While a nation may not fear failure, it may fail nevertheless. Vince Lombardy said, I believe, that winning is everything. Winning with a moral and intellectual health and justice might be a sort of political equivalent. Winning might be defined as right thinking and living with a sort of Socratic or Christian paradigm of the morally good I would think.
It is necessary to 'put intention on it' and not just have a sort of Doris Day c'est le vie' nothing to fear sort of stoicism in the realm of contemporary global politics. Obviously a polity must get beyond fear, but that isn't the end of the journey, it is only the beginning.

Reagan Vs. Bush on Terrorism
It has been pointed out by many that terrorism today is not unlike terrorism in prior generations, the faces and names have changed (except for many repeat Muslim names such as Muhammad perhaps) however the goals remain the same. Terrorism in the 1970's and 1980's waved over Europe from Yassir Arafat’s organization and other Middle Eastern groups with restaurant and aircraft bombings, machine gunning’s in airports and assassination attempts and successes be not uncommon. The primary difference for American's today is that due to a lapse in the Bush administration's defense preparedness they allowed Al Qaeda to destroy and objective and a half in the United States.
President Bush spoke on Labor Day about how the holiday is for people that work, yet he and right wing radio have in a sense redefined the day to a lecture on how to annihilate liberalism and labor unions. It is a day for management and ownership to berate the lower class all for the good of globalism. The President however doesn't neglect to mention that American security is in jeopardy still-and he isn't referring to outsourcing of jobs to China or to the flood of illegal migrant works from Mexico.
Anarchists have been credited with starting the first world war with the assassination in Sarajevo of a Hapsburg archduke and producing casualties far in proportion to their actual successful assassinations in Europe (2000 with millions killed in the war). The writer of a current Atlantic article on American response to terrorism felt that political reaction to terrorism can be worse to the reactionary than to the perpetrator economically. President Bush's response has jeopardized the financial security of the nation is has been argued.
Ronald Reagan perhaps created more confidence in the nation's population as he adroitly reacted to terrorist acts abroad, and of course he had a good Defense Sect. able to adapt with intelligence to change's and opfor capabilities as they developed. The administration’s present pr and implementation activities promote the nation building in Iraq to perennial war, and seems to rely on a goal of forever stopping terrorist attacks upon an indebted yet militarily powerful nation before he leaves office, which is preposterous as most right-thinking people are aware. Terrorism can be contained, defended against and perhaps reduced to a minimal level yet never entirely stopped without putting everyone, everywhere in chains. The administration is evidently on the road to retirement leaving Os Bin Ladin free to plan and dream of further destruction in the United States.
I haven't confidence in either party's ability to rescue America from the slide in globalist takeover, nor reliance on oil for automobile power thought stop short of thinking of them as Death-o-crats and Doomicans much. I believe however that the Democrats did rather well in prior American wars they administrated, and can do well with security too if not much subverted by globalist sympathies. What is lost during the Bush administration's nearly paranoid dependence on terror to rescue it from a requirement of political competence in other areas such as economics and environment is the need the nation has to go to home-powered electric cars, create a total immigration number of no more than 400,000 a year from all sources legal and illegal (immigrant labor has corrupted the rationale for NAFTA by exporting jobs and importing cheap labor simultaneously gutting wage and standard of living prospects for many Americans).
The administration should declare victory in the war on terrorism and move on to its shoddy record on the environment, real wage decrease, total two-term job performance, record on education, increasing federal debt and so forth. President Reagan could handle terrorism and economics at the same time and even have some luck with international diplomacy.
Some Democrats are awaiting Bill Sherpa to accompany Hillary to the Summit of the Oval Office to win one for the zipper. I am not certain that even Hillary could not do a lamer job as President than President Bush has. There are those however that feel that the nation has experienced 18 years in a row of globalism in the White House without leadership in transport and energy independence not only from the world but from corporations as well. That could have been done with federal stress on wind, solar and fuel cell power for electric cars, and power lines for direct energy tapping in selected roadways. I hadn't intended to overly criticize the administration's record, yet can see I barely skimmed the surface, and hope to get on to writing philosophical topics anyway soon.

A Priesthood of Believer's Structure
A 2nd reformation would be useful
A priesthood of believers could be evolved from existing church structures to make a more egalitarian and Biblically correct for of Christian organization better able to evangelize and express the will of God so far as I understand the new testament.
The old testament has a temple worship form something similar to other priestly hierarchies of other faiths...paradoxically Muslims have an immam that isn't actually a priest but is instead just a group leader of merit.
A priesthood of believers is described somewhat in the book of Heberews by the apostle Paul, and of course Jesus said that Christians would be as servants rather than as those placing themselves first.
Of course regular Christian priesthoods have served to bring the message of the gospel over the millenia, however in this populist era all should be more equal and serve equal roles as servants able to serve other Christians first and then others as is useful or consistent with Biblical doctrine.
Here is a brief organizational structure example...
Christians in a church would be organized in groups of 12. Maybe a useful Church would have 12 groups of 12. Each worship day one elder would have a 15 minute time to talk or sermonize, a few hymns could be sung, and everyone else in the group could have five minutes to talk or not. Alternate weeks would have a new elder selected to sermonize.
Perhaps it would be better to have half of the 11 non-sermonizers talk for 10 minutes each instead of for 5 minutes. Each would be expected to shae some learning from the Bible and perhaps to discuss individual work assignments.
Tithing could continue yet no-one would be paid. The money would be invested in insurance for group associates and physical maint. Each member would have their own outside job, yet each group would so far as possible provide fairly free services to other members when and how useful.
In the priesthood of believers all would be trained to be front-line working Christians trained to speak in small groups, evangelize outside when possible, and be a Christian educator. The only position women would not take, in order to be consistent with the Bible, would be that of the 15 minute sermon leader, who would also lead the responsive group reading. Since he doesn't get paid, and the position changes no one should care, and the members should have plenty of other meaningful work to do.
New Christians could be brought int a new member group, or shifted into groups without 12 people and so forth. This is just an idea that I believe would help to establish more Christians in presently non-Christian areas, that would bring more Christians out of backseat roles and into the forefront of actual Biblically directed Christian living and so forth.

Oil Budget Deficits and War
Israel's victory in South Lebanon leaves President Bush without much to do in the way of crisis. While he claims America is more safe than ever British intelligence has unraveled a dire plot to destroy trans-Atlantic aircraft, the OPEC nations run annual budget surplus on oil sales and the United States runs a huge federal deficit...the President's idea of safety must refer to Exxon oil profits and those of Halliburton too.
President Bush’s journey to a Harley Davidson plant in Pennsylvania today highlights the problem of outsourcing jobs today…will he be searching for motorbike models that could be made as ¼ price copies in China as Mao-Hogs with that true Harley sound?

http://www.enotes.com/study-history/ Toynbee's 'A Study of History' ...summarized
President Bush and the administration are following an oil based foreign policy with several substantive flaws, several of which qualify as methods by which previous civilizations were brought down. Some of these points are Toynbean.
1) Vast federal deficit
2) Entry upon a universal phase of civilization. Usually that is the final phase before collapse. One can consider that of Rome and other civilizations ion that regard.
3) Over spending on foreign military ventures that do not produce very profitable results.
4) Outsourcing of jobs and industrial production to foreign nations
5) Insourcing vast numbers of an external proletariat (illegal aliens) from a non originating population source (founder) region. In the United States with a blending culture ethic security in this critical area could be acheived by limiting immigrants to perhaps a half million annually and all through legal means in order that they might become actually assimilated.
6) Transferring vast wealth (a major redistribution of wealth) to an arrested civilization that was subdued only at great social cost, at a time in which that Mohammedan civilization has terrorist aspirants desirous if asserting itself to supremacy or primacy. Fossil fuel oil of course is the counter productive commodity of national self-destruction in this instance.
7) Termination of a creative majority status in the world and transition into a repressive minority.
8-Failure to continue infrastructure renewal and alterity to creative and productive global leading profitable technologies and social infrastructure...the nation essentially is corrupted by.. 9) Global corporatist investors reallocating wealth without any real sense of patriotism or national destiny. This leads to the question if there ever was a civilization or nation in which wealth did not become repressive politically and destructive of the survival of the nation in time because of its desire for comfort, security and unwillingness to invest in decontrolling socially positive change? Of course I must add the onerous point that I support democracy and not socialism or corporatism as a political mode of self-governance.
11:50am Aug 14, 2006 EDT 'Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves'-Willliam Pitt
U.S. Middle East policy will probably remain hostage to a volatile destabilizing hostage status to globalist oil policies and related scenarios until a zero-cost consumer energy production policy is encouraged and supported by the federal government in the United States. At least 25% of the nation's auto drivers should have the ability to convert solar and wind power into electric power for electric vehicles without corporate grafting.
Withdrawal of U.S. forces from the Middle East is effectively unrealistic for the next 20 years if America relies upon fossil fuels from the Saudi Gold belt of Middle East nations and that of the Shia of Iran. To withdraw before a stable and friendly Iraq emerges would expose all the aforesaid oil producing nations to oil production destruction by terrorists, and of course the United States is absolutely daft about oil consumption.
If the United States did not rely upon oil for transportation, and if consumers were independent from global corporatists able to produce their own energy as easily as cowboys once found fuel for their horses without involving global corporations, it could withdraw military forces, let civil wars and terrorist missions in the region ensue as the Shia and Sunni battle for control of mideast oil. The winner would probably be some sort of conservative theocracy of one sort or another, or perhaps two each interested in gouges the automobile transported of Los Angeles so far as possible. The broadcast media would become purchased by the wealthy oil theocrats that would reprogram American consumers.

Americans need to break their oil addiction. Companies like Saudi Aramco were formed to nationalize the oilfields and redistribute entitlement to oil fields. Because the Saudis are monarchic their national oil business is a private oil business in effect; it’s a private family business that trickles down contracts to-others.
Oil is the opiate of the Republican masses.
Once working on a towboat in the Gulf of Mexico tied up to an oil barge that uploads/downloads fuel to large vessels there was a pelagic cormorant stumbling around intoxicated by the fumes. It was perhaps as dumb to the need for change as many Americans are today.
Reliance upon oil for a primary energy source is the short way to sell out national independence. Americans simply are miscognizant of the right relation of democracy to capitalism, of that they have a right to require the federal government to support policies that would support individual energy liberation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_hybrid_electric_vehicle
A recent business add claims that there are an infinite number of dynamic variables in business. It is an interesting application point of a larger general philosophical and physics principle that there are an infinite number of dynamic variables in existence ontologically once one makes the reduction from monism to pluralism.
Ontologically a physical system has a set of dynamic principles that is less than the infinite sum of variables beyond or 'outside the particular system. In energy use for the United States regarding political policy selections for what to support and what to field the criterion or set of possibilities is infinite yet finite within the particular range of political 'realities' that politicians choose to support.
The Bush administration is entirely dependent upon oil for its social group coherence prosperity regardless of the extreme damage it does to the well being of the nation and millions of Americans. A more 'liberated' administration with a coherent energy policy able to anticipate systems opposition by oil addicts in congress might be able to change the nation to electric vehicle platform technology with an energy grid of hydrogen pipelines and superconducting lines within, electric home power production and interties and so on within a one term as President...yet it would require a certain degree of political genius such as the Clinton administration and Bush administrations lacked.
The physics of the universe may be said to have an infinite number of variables at the pre-boundary T=0 context of pure potential that became reduced as ontology actualized as an expanding energy/physical universe replete with time+. While their may be a finite number of actual variables given the limited mass of the universe as well as it's limited number of potential configurations because of constraints of physical laws during this 'incarnation', I think it fair to recognize that the umber is nearly infinite because of its large size, and that any physical systems has a reduced and more approximately number of finite variables within the set context of its identity as a system.
Uncertainty is a perpetual element of any finite system. Its operational finitude is contingent being within the more infinite universal context. The time and space-matter composition of the finite set is subject to change...accidentally and otherwise. That fact applies in political structures as well as physical systems, and it is the effort to rational anticipate and find justice within temporary finite groupings or sets in such a way as to assure maximum freedom, justice, goodness and security that is desirable if rationality and goodness are valued as most meaningful elements of being subordinate only to...

P.M. Ohmert is a seeker of peace in the Mideast, although war was thrust upon him. Hezbowlers are the biggest terrorist organization on Earth, one which the Bush administration and the U.N. are perhaps negotiating with presently, drawing little respect I would think from the Iranians for so doing. One should consider the difficulty of the Israeli position in the Lebanon conflict
1) Israeli seeks to no term territorial gain in Lebanon, and instead seeks simply a return to peace and security.
2) Hebowling terror attacks on Israel would likely continue even if an ineffective political third party military force is temporarily inserted. Hezbolling could cause enough 3rd party casualties to create call for withdrawal, and few competent military forces seek to occupy the area today I should imagine.
3) Hezbwollers are a guerrilla/terrorist force supplied by a wealthy patron nation (Iran). In that regard P.M. Ohmert is in a situation something like that of L.B.J. in dealing with a communist insurgency supplied by the Soviet Union, or American forces in Baghdad dealing with surreptitious terrorist insurgents rather than a conventional military power.
4) P.M. Ohmert should reasonably seek or hope to have the United States destroy Iran's nuclear potential and perhaps cause 60 billion dollars worth of economic collateral damage in order to discourage Iranian support for Hezbowling, yet the Bush administration although perhaps happy enough to gouge Americans about oil, and to deplete the national emergency reserve and refill it with 200 dollar per barrel oil, isn't willing to risk a war with an oil producing nation now that would perhaps double the price of oil and cause a renewal of inflation with a drop in the value of the dollar abroad.
5) P.M. Ohmert is surrounding by a political ocean of potential enemies in Arab countries hyper-funded by the increased price of oil. Terrorism in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East has the effect of increasing the price of oil per barrel and the profit for the terrorist supporters in those adverse nations.

Obviously the cost of producing oil in the Middle East remains very low cost and oil companies gouge as shortage arises potential for the market. Cheap labor is abundant in the Middle East as exploitable aliens may be insourced from abroad if needed. Labor costs are perhaps a fractional part of the profits for OPEC producers.
The Saudi oil royals are not exactly so powerless as that today. America is the nation with the federal deficit, the Saudis one with a vast annual surplus.
The United States with good leadership would seek to support national interests while letting prtivate business take care of its global business.

At today’s prices Middle East oil income is about 300 billion a year, and over 2005 and 2006 combined perhaps 300-400 billion will be spent outside the Middle East. Like the Japanese boom of the 70's and 80's into U.S. real estate and such America today may be ripe for more OPEC Muslim purchases. Hugo Chavez is experiencing more revenues, and Castro, the USA article reports and others generally against U.S. policies are receiving more donations or funding.
The oil phenomena may be flanking many aspects of U.S. foreign and domestic policy deleteriously, and the quicker an alternate energy base (electric home power/grid intertie for autos) takes power the quicker may America change its long term course. American's should save their wastage on foreign cars and fuels and invest in their own small businesses. If they have a good idea and borrow the money from an international lender to start up, full disclosure of proprietary data might be necessary first, and the concept would be plundered for the globalists at any rate.

If you are a globalist and corporatist then it isn't gouging...if you are an American nationalist seeking the betterment of the U.S.A. oil gouging is gouging and its as simple as that . Perhaps you don't remember the tea tax that set off the revolution, in which Americans had to pay a tax to Britain for fine Indian tea. Some untaxed tea could be smuggled in to the nation from odd foreign locales, yet Americans could not produce their own domestic tea supply.
Supply and demand and pricing are of course fairly simply macro-economic functions, yet responses to particular circumstances are traditional too. If the cost is too high then consumers need to find an alternate supply or alternate energy in this case of foreign oil instead of being mesmerized idiots hooked by foreign oil pushers like Chinese of the 19th century in opium dens. I believe that you make the contemporary error regarding alternative energy and the high cost of oil that is common in assuming that consumer and nationalist reactions to commodities pricing and supply phenomena is somehow required to be unthinkingly allegiant to supplier points of view.
Some in this era of mass corporate owned broadcast have been trained to believe that democracy and U.S. national interests are communist or leftist as well as opposed to global corporate interests, and of course nothing could be farther from the truth. Americans are so illiterate about the rights and responsibilities of a democracy that they are afraid or too ignorant to elect an administration tat would pursue the interests of the people instead of global corporations. Oil has several harmful effects on the U.S. economy that are well known...
1) trade deficit
2) personal savings destruction
3) air pollution/health consequences
4) funding of foreign terror organizations
5) misdirection of domestic investment abroad Price s of course a real problem in many domestic respect, and the oil/petrol spending goes to global corporations that hegemonize other aspects of the domestic economic and political structure and encourages the reduction of national political liberty democratically speaking. It all reinforces illegal alien substitution and wage downsizing of the domestic civilian workforce. The government can let oil find its own price level of course, but invest in and support real alternative energy power developments as I've written about quite often. The federal government should encourage home power independence from any corporate structure, and electric cars work best for that.

http://www.enotes.com/study-history/ Toynbee's 'A Study of History' ...summarized
President Bush and the administration are following an oil based foreign policy with several substantive flaws, several of which qualify as methods by which previous civilizations were brought down. Some of these points are Toynbean.
1) Vast federal deficit
2) Entry upon a universal phase of civilization. Usually that is the final phase before collapse. One can consider that of Rome and other civilizations ion that regard.
3) Over spending on foreign military ventures that do not produce very profitable results.
4) Outsourcing of jobs and industrial production to foreign nations
5) Insourcing vast numbers of an external proletariat (illegal aliens) from a non originating population source (founder) region. In the United States with a blending culture ethic security in this critical area could be acheived by limiting immigrants to perhaps a half million annually and all through legal means in order that they might become actually assimilated.
6) Transferring vast wealth (a major redistribution of wealth) to an arrested civilization that was subdued only at great social cost, at a time in which that Mohammedan civilization has terrorist aspirants desirous if asserting itself to supremacy or primacy. Fossil fuel oil of course is the counter productive commodity of national self-destruction in this instance.
7) Termination of a creative majority status in the world and transition into a repressive minority.
8-Failure to continue infrastructure renewal and alterity to creative and productive global leading profitable technologies and social infrastructure...the nation essentially is corrupted by.. 9) Global corporatist investors reallocating wealth without any real sense of patriotism or national destiny. This leads to the question if there ever was a civilization or nation in which wealth did not become repressive politically and destructive of the survival of the nation in time because of its desire for comfort, security and unwillingness to invest in decontrolling socially positive change? Of course I must add the onerous point that I support democracy and not socialism or corporatism as a political mode of self-governance.

U.S. Middle East policy will probably remain hostage to a volatile destabilizing hostage status to globalist oil policies and related scenarios until a zero-cost consumer energy production policy is encouraged and supported by the federal government in the United States. At least 25% of the nation's auto drivers should have the ability to convert solar and wind power into electric power for electric vehicles without corporate grafting.
Withdrawal of U.S. forces from the Middle East is effectively unrealistic for the next 20 years if America relies upon fossil fuels from the Saudi Gold belt of Middle East nations and that of the Shia of Iran. To withdraw before a stable and friendly Iraq emerges would expose all the aforesaid oil producing nations to oil production destruction by terrorists, and of course the United States is absolutely daft about oil consumption.
If the United States did not rely upon oil for transportation, and if consumers were independent from global corporatists able to produce their own energy as easily as cowboys once found fuel for their horses without involving global corporations, it could withdraw military forces, let civil wars and terrorist missions in the region ensue as the Shia and Sunni battle for control of mideast oil. The winner would probably be some sort of conservative theocracy of one sort or another, or perhaps two each interested in gouges the automobile transported of Los Angeles so far as possible. The broadcast media would become purchased by the wealthy oil theocrats that would reprogram American consumers.

Americans need to break their oil addiction. Companies like Saudi Aramco were formed to nationalize the oilfields and redistribute entitlement to oil fields. Because the Saudis are monarchic their national oil business is a private oil business in effect; it’s a private family business that trickles down contracts to-others.
Oil is the opiate of the Republican masses.
Once working on a towboat in the Gulf of Mexico tied up to an oil barge that uploads/downloads fuel to large vessels there was a pelagic cormorant stumbling around intoxicated by the fumes. It was perhaps as dumb to the need for change as many Americans are today.
Reliance upon oil for a primary energy source is the short way to sell out national independence. Americans simply are miscognizant of the right relation of democracy to capitalism, of that they have a right to require the federal government to support policies that would support individual energy liberation.

A recent business add claims that there are an infinite number of dynamic variables in business. It is an interesting application point of a larger general philosophical and physics principle that there are an infinite number of dynamic variables in existence ontologically once one makes the reduction from monism to pluralism.
Ontologically a physical system has a set of dynamic principles that is less than the infinite sum of variables beyond or 'outside the particular system. In energy use for the United States regarding political policy selections for what to support and what to field the criterion or set of possibilities is infinite yet finite within the particular range of political 'realities' that politicians choose to support.
The Bush administration is entirely dependent upon oil for its social group coherence prosperity regardless of the extreme damage it does to the well being of the nation and millions of Americans. A more 'liberated' administration with a coherent energy policy able to anticipate systems opposition by oil addicts in congress might be able to change the nation to electric vehicle platform technology with an energy grid of hydrogen pipelines and superconducting lines within, electric home power production and interties and so on within a one term as President...yet it would require a certain degree of political genius such as the Clinton administration and Bush administrations lacked.
The physics of the universe may be said to have an infinite number of variables at the pre-boundary T=0 context of pure potential that became reduced as ontology actualized as an expanding energy/physical universe replete with time+. While their may be a finite number of actual variables given the limited mass of the universe as well as it's limited number of potential configurations because of constraints of physical laws during this 'incarnation', I think it fair to recognize that the umber is nearly infinite because of its large size, and that any physical systems has a reduced and more approximately number of finite variables within the set context of its identity as a system.
Uncertainty is a perpetual element of any finite system. Its operational finitude is contingent being within the more infinite universal context. The time and space-matter composition of the finite set is subject to change...accidentally and otherwise. That fact applies in political structures as well as physical systems, and it is the effort to rational anticipate and find justice within temporary finite groupings or sets in such a way as to assure maximum freedom, justice, goodness and security that is desirable if rationality and goodness are valued as most meaningful elements of being subordinate only to...

P.M. Ohmert is a seeker of peace in the Mideast, although war was thrust upon him. Hezbowlers are the biggest terrorist organization on Earth, one which the Bush administration and the U.N. are perhaps negotiating with presently, drawing little respect I would think from the Iranians for so doing. One should consider the difficulty of the Israeli position in the Lebanon conflict
1) Israeli seeks to no term territorial gain in Lebanon, and instead seeks simply a return to peace and security.
2) Hebowling terror attacks on Israel would likely continue even if an ineffective political third party military force is temporarily inserted. Hezbolling could cause enough 3rd party casualties to create call for withdrawal, and few competent military forces seek to occupy the area today I should imagine.
3) Hezbwollers are a guerrilla/terrorist force supplied by a wealthy patron nation (Iran). In that regard P.M. Ohmert is in a situation something like that of L.B.J. in dealing with a communist insurgency supplied by the Soviet Union, or American forces in Baghdad dealing with surreptitious terrorist insurgents rather than a conventional military power.
4) P.M. Ohmert should reasonably seek or hope to have the United States destroy Iran's nuclear potential and perhaps cause 60 billion dollars worth of economic collateral damage in order to discourage Iranian support for Hezbowling, yet the Bush administration although perhaps happy enough to gouge Americans about oil, and to deplete the national emergency reserve and refill it with 200 dollar per barrel oil, isn't willing to risk a war with an oil producing nation now that would perhaps double the price of oil and cause a renewal of inflation with a drop in the value of the dollar abroad.
5) P.M. Ohmert is surrounding by a political ocean of potential enemies in Arab countries hyper-funded by the increased price of oil. Terrorism in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East has the effect of increasing the price of oil per barrel and the profit for the terrorist supporters in those adverse nations. Israel has the blessing of no oil so it has the necessity of find alternative energy and intellectual investments that increase its long-term return.

British Arrests Transport of Liquids in BP North Slope Pipeline and HeathrowAir Travel
British MI-5 Halts Transport of Pterrorist Liquids a Couple Days after BP Closes North Slope Pipeline Flow
British authorities have busted a possible Al Qa’eda plot to place explosive liquids in innocent appearing packages such as baby’s formulae by passengers aboard trans-Atlantic airliners to halt air travel Anglo-American air travel. The season of globalist explosive liquids has accompanied revelations by Mel Gibson and Robin Williams of alcohol abuse and inflammatory statements in some cases requiring treatment. The Globalist broadcast media-a staunch foe of democracy with extremist brainwashing opportunities is simultaneously assaulting those in submission to God as ‘O’fascists’. Muhammed-o’fascists is a better term than Islam-O’fascists which is a leftist concept of atheists of the Leninist stripe peppering the public with pro-atheist propaganda.
The U.S. Department of Globalist Security was presented with difficult decisions in response to the liquids crisis---would it be better to risk a slight chance of mid-air jet detonations than to leave the hair regrowth formulae at home or face the embarrassment of buying the stuff in a London apothecary? A Senior Analyst at the Oil-For-Money institute said that prices may rise temporarily yet drop this fall when demand decreases.
Iranian advisers have been found as casualties on the battlefield in Lebanon recently, highlighting Iran support for the world’s largest and best armed terrorist organization Hezbollah. The Hezzies received more than 180 million dollars and rocket systems from the Iranian Government this last fiscal year making Iran a partner in terrorism. Lebanon is unfortunately an accomplice in providing safe harbor for the terrorists. The Bush administration is leaving significant problems for the next administration to face with Iran likely developing nuclear weapons and longer range rockets before January 20th 2009.
The Democratic Party is for-itself keeping the wrong arguments in mind about Middle Eastern problem and U.S. Security and is being chastised routinely by GOP Polemic Rave Radio. The Democratic Party in some quarters seems to believe that unilateral withdrawal would not have meaningful consequences to the Middle East or the United States, and seem to have a pre-1990 point of view on Iraqi policy.
If the United States withdrew from Iraq precipitously it would lose credibility of course with all parties living in the region as an untrustworthy partner and probably a bloodbath civil war would follow. Iran would be the unchallenged Shiite terrorist nation in the region of course, yet the Sunni would receive military support from Saudi Arabia and Al Qa’eda would assume a larger posture as defender of the faith of Muhammad so far as it perpetrated terrorism upon the Shia. The United State’s interests would become increasingly irrelevant to the oil profit bloated OPEC nations while the political Captain Quigs of the U.S.A. would receive tantalizing globalist bits about how fuel cell cars are on the way as soon as global corporations form a monopoly on production and individual home-fuel production from solar panels for quickly rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles is safely obscured.
Some Democrats believe that working for a balanced budget and elimination of the federal deficit while flooding the U.S.A. with illegal aliens is possible in a new 8 years of a Democratic administration, yet just another Bush could knock over the savings and return the U.S.A. to deficit spending and militarism in defense against terrorism. A Democratic administration will need to deal with a nuclear armed Iran and its legions of terrorists with rockets in Lebanon and perhaps millions of terrorist in Iraq struggling for supremacy and to drive up world oil prices. President Bush of course will not send the 7th air fleet of stealth fighters and cruise missiles to wipe out Iranian nuclear production, a Senior Analyst at the No-Junior Analysts Institute said, because the price of oil would rise to 100 dollars a barrel almost immediately, and that would have the effect of driving Republicans from office this November with Tom Delay’s name still on the ballot in Sugarland.
President Bush in Deep Pockets of Oil Companies
For a few years I sought to persuade Alaskans to support alternate fuels, and to support conveyance of North Slope oil production to Alaskans rather than to Brits and BP. After the Exxon Valdez spill for which the litigation is still unsettled 17 years later, it became obvious that many looked upon Alaska as little more than a resource colony. Americans have traded their freedom for comfort and safety (foreign car and foreign fuels for trade deficits and globalist political empowerment), and Ben Franklin of course provided the solution to that equation stare decisis.A political coefficient of adversity determines the price of oil today in the United States that Americans are paying more than three dollars a gallon for (raise and gouge until the next administration or whoever seriously supports alternate energy development that lets Americans make their own energy individually for electric cars).
The high oil prices fund foreign pterrorist organizations, yet Americans are entirely unintelligent at switching to native, independent non-centralized and no-globalist or corporatist fuel sources for their autos. They’re put into a sleeper headlock by the arms of globalist broadcast media being constantly brainwashed into non-locality and apathy politically except as the use-truths programmers deem.Alaskan politicians to the federal government needed to get oil lease sales offered in small enough parcels that small bidders could win, or the cumulative cost for buying up all the parcels by large global oil companies would have been much higher with more revenues for paying down federal debt. It is electric autos that have high performance and capability for a wide variety of energy input.
The coefficient of adversity prevents the federal investment in rational, national non fossil fuel development, and the voters have stupidly reelected an oil administration that is globalist rather than nationalist in prioritizing objectives. Connecticut's democrats may be anti-Semitic and reactionary during the Lebanon conflict, yet Lieberman as a Jacksonian liberal may offer some alternative to Paloziism.
Oil companies know President Bush will not invest in real alternatives to oil reliance, relying upon it to fill his family and friendly bank accounts generally. Oil prices will go as high as Americans are willing or able to pay, perhaps as much as 150 dollars per barrel (I wrote last year that they would reach 75 or 100 dollars a barrel)...as Americans are complacent sycophants of globalists these days, and the democrats will fall right into line on that in Connecticut I'd guess.Electric vehicles can get electricity from solar panels in parking lots, wind generators in parking lots, home fuel cells (Ballard fuel cells are available now for 5000) and a national infrastructure renewal could cool superconducting lines with solar power created liquid hydrogen) in deep sub freeway pipelines. Interstates should have power lines for cars to draw electric power from directly.Incidentally the market retail price of my science fiction book 'Alterwall Objectives' is $15.95. It has some stories developed when I lived in Alaska...but not much about oil, the North Slope or BP's leaking 16 miles of oil pipeline.
Non-property Owning Cultures of more than 50,000 years
Ariel Sharon was a tough soldier. Ariel Sharon drove his army unit to the Suez Canal during the 1972 Yom Kippur war with a substantive shrapnel caused head wound bandaged egregiously. While he wasn't first over into Egypt it was only because of direct orders to stand back. A man with prior serious head injuries living in such a hot clime with full political responsibilities, over weight and with age is likely to suffer a stroke or coronary...remember that his doctors did not treat him terribly well after the first incident and let him return to work far to quickly...he should have taken some time off instead and left the Gaza troubles and West Bank terrorist pressure management to micro-managers.
On other topics regarding war and the folly of mankind to err into war and neglect prosperity, consider the report in the July 31, 2006 Newsweek that scientists are working the next to years to sequence the Neanderthal genome. The Neanderthals died out 30,000 years ago leaving Homo sapiens to ponder today what happened? It might have evidently scientists wonder what gives mankind an abstract reasoning ability differing him/her from the Neanderthal’s simplicity. political anthropologists have compared the abstract reasoning of George W. Bush with that of former President Bill Clinton for analogical comprehension studies, yet they overrate the differences in administration policy success' and failures Only joking-president Bush ate too much birthday cake and it caused sugar somulence and fossil fuel complaisance recently.
This is the time of year when lecture radio goes over how communism has never been successful anywhere, or that Fidel Castro is one of the most astounding leaders in history, and truth is neglected for some reason or other. Actually a form of basic communism is the world’s historically most common form of social grouping, lasting since the beginning of Homo sapiens about 50,000 to 1000,000 years before present until something better was invented or made possible. Basic communism is the non-property owning form of human social grouping which is a process of animal association. The concept of property owning is meaningless when land is abundant, products are simple and non-specialized, agricultural work is collective and so forth.
Reproductive success and tribal survival was better for people that shared food to all, allowing members unsuccessful in the day's hunt to eat the bounty of the fortunate that day. When food preservation was nearly non-existent, and tools were Neolithic, no one 'owned' anything, and in fact it was considered undesirable to withhold anything from someone that desired one's knife, hat or sling etc. the simple necessities were mostly identical at any rate.I believe it was John Kenneth Galbraith that pointed out that ownership and 'private property' came about when mankind developed more advanced technologies and specializations that required exclusive possession for increase of worth. If Intel's Oregon plant were common would the clean chip rooms be as clean if winos hung out there on hot days?
The principle of exclusive use is fairly simple. Of course hunter gatherers and slash and burn nomadic peoples had no need to 'own' 'property' or land either...the concept had little meaning so long as they were free to use a place or region or keep discovering equally productive areas.Private property and free enterprise were consequent to social development and specialization quite recent in human history formalized as The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith. Unfortunately modern globalist repression in the form of corporatism wherein government and transnational corporations work together and squash individual freedom to differ in infrastructure choices and in free expression and business innovations, and the traditional 'modern' communist or authoritarian government that dictates and allocates resources to a proletariat work against the benefits of individualization made possible when individual genius is free to pick and choose from the worlds knowledge base elements to synthesize new productions, productions methods, systems structures and technologies for exploration.Fidel Castro's Cuban revolution that installed a communist dictatorship upon a neo-agrarian social culture was a good example of a synthetic retardation of free enterprise with quasi-fascism made in order to avoid the believed repressive extremes of corrupt mobster corporatist capitalism, if the Batista regime could be said to be sort of corporatist.
A society in which property ownership and even government is irrelevant in a more fundamental primitive human context differs markedly from a modern dictatorship that represses individual freedom and instead allocates resources under a sort of martial law.Adam Smith's ideas about free enterprise complementing an economy alongside a benevolent democratic government seeking the well being of the people directly and the nation collectively was actualized with the United States of America of the founders that existed in such a form perhaps for the first 100 years in many of the states that were spare the absolute evil of slavery. Today corporatism has led to a U.S. political stupidity rendering it unable to comprehend the mud wrestling nature of oil and fossil fuel use, federal deficits, enrichment of inimical terrorists’ populations, low education requirements abroad, middle-eastern wars and interminable (Bush years) neglect of more salutary domestic policies that could escape the perennial oil-caused brinksmanship.Some speak rather superfluously about Christian social organizations as communist of primitive times... they haven't given enough thought to what modern communism, government and economic systems with specializations and advanced technology mean.
Modern communism is inimical to the processes of technological enterprise essentially, and Christians were not formulating a worldly government political theory nor economic system. For them the material world was secondary to irrelevant to spiritual affairs. Pure political power concentrates social roles and economic possibilities sometimes, and may lead to reactionary individualism and free enterprise. Christians were in revolt to the power of the world social roles in their allegiance to god perhaps it could be said, yet free enterprise for Christians and property ownership would be just fine as a thing for-itself so long as it did not lead to neglect of the prioritization first of spiritual concerns.

The season of globalist explosive liquids has accompanied revelations by Mel Gibson and Robin Williams of alcohol abuse and inflammatory statements in some cases requiring treatment. The Globalist broadcast media-a staunch foe of democracy with extremist brainwashing opportunities is simultaneously assaulting those in submission to God as ‘O’fascists’. Muhammed-o’fascists is a better term than Islam-O’fascists which is a leftist concept of atheists of the Leninist stripe peppering the public with pro-atheist propaganda.
The U.S. Department of Globalist Security was presented with difficult decisions in response to the liquids crisis---would it be better to risk a slight chance of mid-air jet detonations than to leave the hair regrowth formulae at home or face the embarrassment of buying the stuff in a London apothecary? A Senior Analyst at the Oil-For-Money institute said that prices may rise temporarily yet drop this fall when demand decreases.
Iranian advisers have been found as casualties on the battlefield in Lebanon recently, highlighting Iran support for the world’s largest and best armed terrorist organization Hezbollah. The Hezzies received more than 180 million dollars and rocket systems from the Iranian Government this last fiscal year making Iran a partner in terrorism. Lebanon is unfortunately an accomplice in providing safe harbor for the terrorists. The Bush administration is leaving significant problems for the next administration to face with Iran likely developing nuclear weapons and longer range rockets before January 20th 2009.
The Democratic Party is for-itself keeping the wrong arguments in mind about Middle Eastern problem and U.S. Security and is being chastised routinely by GOP Polemic Rave Radio. The Democratic Party in some quarters seems to believe that unilateral withdrawal would not have meaningful consequences to the Middle East or the United States, and seem to have a pre-1990 point of view on Iraqi policy.
If the United States withdrew from Iraq precipitously it would lose credibility of course with all parties living in the region as an untrustworthy partner and probably a bloodbath civil war would follow. Iran would be the unchallenged Shiite terrorist nation in the region of course, yet the Sunni would receive military support from Saudi Arabia and Al Qa’eda would assume a larger posture as defender of the faith of Muhammad so far as it perpetrated terrorism upon the Shia. The United State’s interests would become increasingly irrelevant to the oil profit bloated OPEC nations while the political Captain Quigs of the U.S.A. would receive tantalizing globalist bits about how fuel cell cars are on the way as soon as global corporations form a monopoly on production and individual home-fuel production from solar panels for quickly rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles is safely obscured.
Some Democrats believe that working for a balanced budget and elimination of the federal deficit while flooding the U.S.A. with illegal aliens is possible in a new 8 years of a Democratic administration, yet just another Bush could knock over the savings and return the U.S.A. to deficit spending and militarism in defense against terrorism. A Democratic administration will need to deal with a nuclear armed Iran and its legions of terrorists with rockets in Lebanon and perhaps millions of terrorist in Iraq struggling for supremacy and to drive up world oil prices. President Bush of course will not send the 7th air fleet of stealth fighters and cruise missiles to wipe out Iranian nuclear production, a Senior Analyst at the No-Junior Analysts Institute said, because the price of oil would rise to 100 dollars a barrel almost immediately, and that would have the effect of driving Republicans from office this November with Tom Delay’s name still on the ballot in Sugarland.
President Bush in Deep Pockets of Oil Companies
For a few years I sought to persuade Alaskans to support alternate fuels, and to support conveyance of North Slope oil production to Alaskans rather than to Brits and BP. After the Exxon Valdez spill for which the litigation is still unsettled 17 years later, it became obvious that many looked upon Alaska as little more than a resource colony. Americans have traded their freedom for comfort and safety (foreign car and foreign fuels for trade deficits and globalist political empowerment), and Ben Franklin of course provided the solution to that equation stare decisis.A political coefficient of adversity determines the price of oil today in the United States that Americans are paying more than three dollars a gallon for (raise and gouge until the next administration or whoever seriously supports alternate energy development that lets Americans make their own energy individually for electric cars).
The high oil prices fund foreign pterrorist organizations, yet Americans are entirely unintelligent at switching to native, independent non-centralized and no-globalist or corporatist fuel sources for their autos. They’re put into a sleeper headlock by the arms of globalist broadcast media being constantly brainwashed into non-locality and apathy politically except as the use-truths programmers deem.Alaskan politicians to the federal government needed to get oil lease sales offered in small enough parcels that small bidders could win, or the cumulative cost for buying up all the parcels by large global oil companies would have been much higher with more revenues for paying down federal debt. It is electric autos that have high performance and capability for a wide variety of energy input.
The coefficient of adversity prevents the federal investment in rational, national non fossil fuel development, and the voters have stupidly reelected an oil administration that is globalist rather than nationalist in prioritizing objectives. Connecticut's democrats may be anti-Semitic and reactionary during the Lebanon conflict, yet Lieberman as a Jacksonian liberal may offer some alternative to Paloziism.
Oil companies know President Bush will not invest in real alternatives to oil reliance, relying upon it to fill his family and friendly bank accounts generally. Oil prices will go as high as Americans are willing or able to pay, perhaps as much as 150 dollars per barrel (I wrote last year that they would reach 75 or 100 dollars a barrel)...as Americans are complacent sycophants of globalists these days, and the democrats will fall right into line on that in Connecticut I'd guess.Electric vehicles can get electricity from solar panels in parking lots, wind generators in parking lots, home fuel cells (Ballard fuel cells are available now for 5000) and a national infrastructure renewal could cool superconducting lines with solar power created liquid hydrogen) in deep sub freeway pipelines. Interstates should have power lines for cars to draw electric power from directly.Incidentally the market retail price of my science fiction book 'Alterwall Objectives' is $15.95. It has some stories developed when I lived in Alaska...but not much about oil, the North Slope or BP's leaking 16 miles of oil pipeline.
Non-property Owning Cultures of more than 50,000 years
Ariel Sharon was a tough soldier. Ariel Sharon drove his army unit to the Suez Canal during the 1972 Yom Kippur war with a substantive shrapnel caused head wound bandaged egregiously. While he wasn't first over into Egypt it was only because of direct orders to stand back. A man with prior serious head injuries living in such a hot clime with full political responsibilities, over weight and with age is likely to suffer a stroke or coronary...remember that his doctors did not treat him terribly well after the first incident and let him return to work far to quickly...he should have taken some time off instead and left the Gaza troubles and West Bank terrorist pressure management to micro-managers.
On other topics regarding war and the folly of mankind to err into war and neglect prosperity, consider the report in the July 31, 2006 Newsweek that scientists are working the next to years to sequence the Neanderthal genome. The Neanderthals died out 30,000 years ago leaving Homo sapiens to ponder today what happened? It might have evidently scientists wonder what gives mankind an abstract reasoning ability differing him/her from the Neanderthal’s simplicity. political anthropologists have compared the abstract reasoning of George W. Bush with that of former President Bill Clinton for analogical comprehension studies, yet they overrate the differences in administration policy success' and failures Only joking-president Bush ate too much birthday cake and it caused sugar somulence and fossil fuel complaisance recently.
This is the time of year when lecture radio goes over how communism has never been successful anywhere, or that Fidel Castro is one of the most astounding leaders in history, and truth is neglected for some reason or other. Actually a form of basic communism is the world’s historically most common form of social grouping, lasting since the beginning of Homo sapiens about 50,000 to 1000,000 years before present until something better was invented or made possible. Basic communism is the non-property owning form of human social grouping which is a process of animal association. The concept of property owning is meaningless when land is abundant, products are simple and non-specialized, agricultural work is collective and so forth.
Reproductive success and tribal survival was better for people that shared food to all, allowing members unsuccessful in the day's hunt to eat the bounty of the fortunate that day. When food preservation was nearly non-existent, and tools were Neolithic, no one 'owned' anything, and in fact it was considered undesirable to withhold anything from someone that desired one's knife, hat or sling etc. the simple necessities were mostly identical at any rate.I believe it was John Kenneth Galbraith that pointed out that ownership and 'private property' came about when mankind developed more advanced technologies and specializations that required exclusive possession for increase of worth. If Intel's Oregon plant were common would the clean chip rooms be as clean if winos hung out there on hot days?
The principle of exclusive use is fairly simple. Of course hunter gatherers and slash and burn nomadic peoples had no need to 'own' 'property' or land either...the concept had little meaning so long as they were free to use a place or region or keep discovering equally productive areas.Private property and free enterprise were consequent to social development and specialization quite recent in human history formalized as The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith. Unfortunately modern globalist repression in the form of corporatism wherein government and transnational corporations work together and squash individual freedom to differ in infrastructure choices and in free expression and business innovations, and the traditional 'modern' communist or authoritarian government that dictates and allocates resources to a proletariat work against the benefits of individualization made possible when individual genius is free to pick and choose from the worlds knowledge base elements to synthesize new productions, productions methods, systems structures and technologies for exploration.Fidel Castro's Cuban revolution that installed a communist dictatorship upon a neo-agrarian social culture was a good example of a synthetic retardation of free enterprise with quasi-fascism made in order to avoid the believed repressive extremes of corrupt mobster corporatist capitalism, if the Batista regime could be said to be sort of corporatist.
A society in which property ownership and even government is irrelevant in a more fundamental primitive human context differs markedly from a modern dictatorship that represses individual freedom and instead allocates resources under a sort of martial law.Adam Smith's ideas about free enterprise complementing an economy alongside a benevolent democratic government seeking the well being of the people directly and the nation collectively was actualized with the United States of America of the founders that existed in such a form perhaps for the first 100 years in many of the states that were spare the absolute evil of slavery. Today corporatism has led to a U.S. political stupidity rendering it unable to comprehend the mud wrestling nature of oil and fossil fuel use, federal deficits, enrichment of inimical terrorists’ populations, low education requirements abroad, middle-eastern wars and interminable (Bush years) neglect of more salutary domestic policies that could escape the perennial oil-caused brinksmanship.Some speak rather superfluously about Christian social organizations as communist of primitive times... they haven't given enough thought to what modern communism, government and economic systems with specializations and advanced technology mean.
Modern communism is inimical to the processes of technological enterprise essentially, and Christians were not formulating a worldly government political theory nor economic system. For them the material world was secondary to irrelevant to spiritual affairs. Pure political power concentrates social roles and economic possibilities sometimes, and may lead to reactionary individualism and free enterprise. Christians were in revolt to the power of the world social roles in their allegiance to god perhaps it could be said, yet free enterprise for Christians and property ownership would be just fine as a thing for-itself so long as it did not lead to neglect of the prioritization first of spiritual concerns.

U.S. Senator's Wealth A Conflict of Interest Pro-Globalism?
When the medical corporation Senator Frist’s family started was sold recently for more than 21 billion dollars I wondered what relation such extreme wealth has upon the loyalties of U.S. Senators toward business preferences and federal legislation. The Senate of course just passed a bill to open the eastern Gulf of Mexico to offshore oil drilling, and global production of fossil fuel vehicles has surpassed that of the United States many times over. A farmer might more readily buy a Mahindra 5500 tractor than a John Deere (see page 41 Business Week July 31, 2006 Emerging(Multinational) Giants, and much of hard and soft production has shifted to China and India with Japan at this point being a veritable old time production partner. While global business is without question good for investors in global businesses and many citizens of nations other than the United States, is it good for Americans?
CNN published a list of senate millionaires (spouse and family assets not included) http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/06/13/senators.finances/ that indicates U.S. Senator do have a substantial investment bases most likely in established and globalist ventures perhaps not as free riders being stuffed by patrons yet with an inevitable conflict of interest. These guys aren’t hungry for U.S. progress and would not choose to support measures that would undermine the value of their investments in existing stock portfolios. That could be ultimately harmful to U.S. national interests.
Most reasonable people are aware that global warming and reliance on corporatist fossil fuels for transportation domestically are inimical to U.S. prosperity and security. Iran for instance in the current inflated oil price market earned more than 60 billion on fossil fuel sales the past year and will earn more this year, and contributed 180 million dollars to Hezbowlahh and its South Lebanon rocket range. Other terrorist supporting nations or those with a large number of oil wealthy supporters of terrorist causes are prospering during the Bush-Cheyney-Frist axis of oil era.
In the United States a non-co-opted U.S. Senate would oppose the mass extinction caused by asphalt and fossil fueled vehicles. It would support individual home power production enterprises through a variety of incentives to eliminate fossil fuel use in the domestic transport fleet. Certainly trans-continental electro-magnetic accelerator cargo tunnels could eliminate 70% of the domestic trucking fleet with a 2000 M.P.H. trans-con shipping speed to several major terminals coast to coast. Homes could be made with concrete gunnite air-formed applications to be hurricane and tornado resistant and with zero net loss of biota…drive in spiral ‘domes’ would allow interior courtyards, low cost and exceptional endurance, privacy and gardening potential. Zero net loss of biota should be a national land priority along with security not net egress border security. Several simple legislative measures could upset the imbalance created by the U.S. Senate indolent preference for global wealth investments that marginalize American startups and infrastructure revolutions. The Senators are so wrapped up in the way things are, are so led by global corporations that they are virtual accomplices to the parting out and repopulation of the United States. The passage of a minimum wage increase by the house was tied to a bill to eliminate the estate tax and permit globalists to purchase the United States without possibility of being taxed to invest in the security of the United States environmentally and socially. Obviously the Senate would not support an honest minimum wage increase for-itself.
In centuries past a Senate could just move along without a Jefferson to pursue national interests, defend against tyranny from authoritarians foreign and domestic, and fail to utilize rational modeling in comprehending the actions and lack of actions of the state. The Federal Government is large today with a vast number of commitments, probably beyond the scope of what the founders intended, yet the vast size is a consequence of ineffective planning and investments in the nation’s policies that could have made the government more effective at fulfilling its necessary roles without compromise for a lower cost. In many ways the government today supports corporatistism and stifles competition while simultaneously failing to promote investments, technologies and legislations that would create an ever renewing national economic independence without isolation, debt or pollution externalities.
The concatenation of ineffective Senate policies creates the zeitgeist and physical socio-economic and environmental conditions the nation experiences today. It seems unfortunate that the complaisant republicans and over homosexualized egressing democrats fail to comprehend the core economic and environmental issues that challenge the United States in 2006 adequately to take legislative measures that would effectively address them. Automobiles are a very over-mature and today draining technology. Over centralization of energy, sewer, transport and other public utilities have made a massified and reliant U.S. consumer culture readily subject to disruption. The environment is warming deleteriously over time, and cities such as Phoenix Arizona are taking few steps to seriously reverse the over-heating trend created by thousands of miles of asphalt laid in the Sonora desert in a valley.
The U.S. Senate as a group of yes-persons for globalists with succor from some neo-con broadcast social quank-philosophers haven’t even the substance to comprehend the negative impact globalist domination of U.S. broadcast media has upon mass opinion formation. I think it is virtually impossible to have regional political initiatives anymore much different that that policy corporatists expect for their profit margins. New technologies could allow radiowaves to be used by internet applications to democraticize the airwaves.

Terrorists and Iran are Causes of Middle Eastern Strife
With terrorists causing conflict in Lebanon, the Gaza and Israel a brief summary of the history of the middle eastern troubles would be useful in the present ‘crisis’ as another conflict has hit the fan of change. Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger wrote a succinct analytical article published in the Washington Post Monday July 31st covering the general parameters of the present nexus, yet Mr. Kissinger neglected to mention the failure of American diplomacy created in essence by the lack of determination and intelligence at the top (the President being nursed by oil and conflict through his two terms in deficit production for the nation) that stifles whatever creative diplomatic skills the able-enough Secretary Rice might consider.
It is remarkable how the people of the United States suffer from a sort of political amnesia or aphasia occasionally regarding the political etiology of sundry Middle Eastern conflicts. For many years the left has essentially taken an ostrichian position of wishing those foreign troubles to just go away without serious work internationally to remediate the causal factors that precipitate and sustain the various crises.
The Jews have long sought to return from the Diaspora to their ancestral homeland since the 70 ad. dispersal, and in small numbers and at various times they have. Jewish people have always lived in Jerusalem even when it was under foreign occupation and eventually settled by Muhammad’s rampaging horse cavalry hordes. When the Ottoman Empire took over all of the Middle East through conquest they ruled for about 400 years with everything generally imperial property---even Iran or Persia was subject to Ottoman rule with their covert Shiist loyalties to fall back upon.
Rabbi Herzl stimulated the return of Jews to Israel to form a homeland late in the 19th century. Centuries of European pogroms had demonstrated that Jews were often unwelcome in Europe. Even the Spanish deported Jews after 1492 much to their financial miss investment of New World booty. The Jews of Poland were sent beyond the Pale district amidst ordinary Russian-Polish wars for regional rule. Jews continued to migrate to Israel with the hope of forming a nation in the early part of the 20th century, yet it was the allied victory over the Ottoman Empire and Germany that gave rule of the Middle East to Britain that gave the Jewish Zionist a chance to build their numbers and strength in Israel.
Jewish pioneers such as Moshe Dyan lived on Kibbutz’s upon land legally purchased from Britain and local owners. The Jews of Israel sought to live peacefully and harmoniously sharing technology and improved farming techniques with their Muslim and often a generation removed from nomadic herder brethren and often were repulsed, for some reason perhaps involving religion and Muhammedism the Jews were considered as invading outsiders by the locals. The Jewish movement into Israel in the 20th century and land purchases were entirely lawful, yet the Balfour declaration by Lord Balfour to separate or partition Jews and Muslims in Palestine was done after the holocaust of the Reich, the Mufti of Jerusalem’s partnership with Hitler and general Arab sympathy for the fascists because the strife between the peoples increased and weapons caches grew. Of course in time the Jews declared independence from Britain and were recognized by UN resolution 242, The Arab nations of the region warred to their defeat upon Israel as soon as it became independent.
The fundamental problem in the Middle East today, and with Hezbollah and its thousands of terrorist rockets arsenal, and of course with Hamas and its dedication to terror, is the inability to rationally live peacefully with the Jewish State. Of course many Americans and leftists fail to comprehend the problem either. Still the world has only about 13 million Jews and film stars such as Mel Gibson can declare that “Jews cause all the wars’, yet Mr. Mel Gibson at least had the courage to say he has an alcohol problem while most of the Hollywood pro-terrorist set, anti-Israel set cannot. It is remarkable that such vast wealth and numbers of people can find problems with Jews in the post-modern, post-holocaust era. The Brits and Japanese for example have more financial influence, and not all Jews are millionaires, nor are a variety of other cliché’s about various peoples true either a priori.
Iran was able to resupply Hezbollah terrorist with rockets since the Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon, and Iran of course is building up a nuclear program perhaps to give a bomb to a Hezbollah to take out Tel Aviv and Haifa some day in round three of the Muslim fundamentalist war upon Israel. The Washington Post in the issue cited above also had an interesting report on designer pathogen potential today and tomorrow. A German scientist named Eckard Wimmer built a homemade Ebola-smallpox virus from mail-ordered parts and internet data download that was entirely artificial yet effective. Evidently terrorist and others may be able to obtain and construct that sort of long-anticipated match for the powder keg room soon.
Iran surely has a complex history, yet their position in the world geopolitically is rather pivotal and potentially catalytic. Oppression and torture by the Shah’s Savak may color their thought, yet the world moves on and an independent, democratic Iran with neo-isolationism would be a better one that one that is a progenitor of Armageddon quality doom scenarios including it’s own. The Iranians are wrong in encouraging and supporting the Middle Eastern terrorist activities upon Israel, and will in time lose. Of course they have legitimate complaints about certain aspects of western conduct and the broadcast media is corrupt and owned by corrupting agents almost everywhere better replaced by internet usage.
So much for this brief post about the Middle Eastern troubles. As the terrorists attack Israel must defend for survival’s sake…they are on the interior lines. It would be desirable if the Muslims oppressed by terrorists and harboring terrorists were able to shake off that pestilence and allow prosperity to grow before the oil era is replaced by a cheap solar, fuel cell and wind power era and the money flow reduces, however political wisdom in that area was replaced some time ago by gangsters, and western diplomacy is unduly influenced by corporatism and the corrupt power-grabbing broadcast media offending people everywhere. (:cool:)

Alterwall Objective's...stories book release
copy press release...
The book includes the novel 'Alterwall Objectives' and stories 'Just Search for the Spirit, 'Vank Island', 'Aftershockwaves 2D-11D', 'Down Mill Road', 'Trimecraft Crash' and more. Every human being has an implicit realm of freedom of thought; privacy within his own mind that no other can violate, though many have tried. These stories began the effort to describe some political and empirical analysis that impinges upon human liberty within and without. If war is a continuation of banking through other means, writing is a way of expressing the desire for freedom from war-from-others in many instances. These draft stories were started in 1990 and were the first non-poetic science fiction stories by Gary C. Gibson after the loss of a prior fiction story of Mars 'The Chamber' in 1988.
Gary Clifford Gibson was an Alaskan writer during much of the 1990's, although Alterwall Objectives was written graveyard shift at a Texas State Office Building while George W. Bush was Governor a few blocks away in 1996. Leaving Texas the author completed the novel at more than 30 public libraries around the United States. One of the more recent short stories was written during a particularly tough summer of wildfires in Montana outside camping and riding North to the small border of Havre. Sadly Bob Hope passed on during that long, hot bike trek on noodles and Hostess mini-muffins rescued from a dumpster.
Gary C Gibson's writings reflect a variety of academic interests in the social sciences, humanities and space exploration synthetically put together along with ordinary direct human experience. With a 99% rank on C.L.E.P. General Social Sciences and History exams and a pure optimism believing that Utopian scenarios are the only acceptable outcome, pragmatism has tempered his writing with the knowledge that humanity screws up a lot, is greedy and philosophically retarded, and perhaps may destroy itself in the drive for power and creature comforts at the expense of the environment.
This book has some yet unapplied scientific applications that could provide better ways of human economic and social development. It is a collection of Gary C. Gibson's first works essentially still in a draft form, unadulterated by composite book packaging editors.

Gary Clifford Gibson was an Alaskan writer during much of the 1990's, although Alterwall Objectives was written graveyard shift at a Texas State Office Building while George W. Bush was Governor a few blocks away in 1996. Leaving Texas the author completed the novel at more than 30 public libraries around the United States. One of the more recent short stories was written during a particularly tough summer of wildfires in Montana outside camping and riding North to the small border of Havre. Sadly Bob Hope passed on during that long, hot bike trek on noodles and Hostess mini-muffins rescued from a dumpster.
Gary C Gibson's writings reflect a variety of academic interests in the social sciences, humanities and space exploration synthetically put together along with ordinary direct human experience. With a 99% rank on C.L.E.P. General Social Sciences and History exams and a pure optimism believing that Utopian scenarios are the only acceptable outcome, pragmatism has tempered his writing with the knowledge that humanity screws up a lot, is greedy and philosophically retarded, and perhaps may destroy itself in the drive for power and creature comforts at the expense of the environment.
This book has some yet unapplied scientific applications that could provide better ways of human economic and social development. It is a collection of Gary C. Gibson's first works essentially still in a draft form, unadulterated by composite book packaging editors.
Replace CENCOM Gen. ABizaid?
Is it time to replace the CENCOM Commander Gen. John Abizaid with someone more effective at reducing civilian casualties? Would someone with a better military education and background of experience be better suited to counterattack the drift toward civilian strife in Iraq? Afghanistan also is experiencing something of a retrograde motion in the Southwest that hasn’t been countered effectively.
General Abizaid since given support to the Dubain Arab royal takeover of American east coast port operations has created an appearance of conflict of interest and loyalty with too much support for Muslim royals. Sure Dubai has a 25 story indoor ski slope with the temperature 120 degrees outside and 35 degrees inside, yet globalization for a career federal public payroll employee never in the private sector, and without prospect of ever being off the public payroll before death, may have little sympathy for the variegated opportunities that nation U.S. free enterprisers may have or experience. What is good for globalists in no way necessarily coincides with what is good for American citizens living in the United States. If General Abizaid with his limited military experience mostly in infantry and not intelligence or special forces and anti-insurgency was doing a good job in Iraq his public gaffs and disrespect for the civil rights of Americans and perhaps Iraqi’s too following George W. Bush’s and the Attorney General’s examples might be more easily overlooked, yet his job performance in Iraq and as CENCOM Commander since 2003 is dismal, and ripe for termination. The only problem is that the fearless leader in D.C. may respect loyal corruption more so than military and civil security effectiveness, and would thus leave General Abizaid in post far too long, creating a lack of creativity and problems that will continue on until a Democratic President with Special Forces competence takes office in 2008.

Exclusive Mass Media Waveform Totalitarianism
While a globally owned broadcast media hogging the very brainwashing channels of mass communication wavelengths in the United States is nearly fatal to democracy and independent economic developments in supports of national interests’ globalists in the corporate world seemingly consider selling out their country to be a virtue, although they wouldn’t say so directly. When dumb M.B.A.’s predominate and decorate society to assure their maximal profits and least work, and take over government converting it and society into a corporatist evil empire standing unreligiously upon sand without a solid monolithic dome foundation with environmental restoration, they doom everything independent so far as possible within the traditional will to power expressed by Attila the Hun. Terrorists everywhere have their own modes and axes to grind with varying degrees of sophistication and inhumanism.
Nature is a non-sequiter within their permanent quick profits paradigm. Leftists are all those in opposition to corporatist dictatorship of the unimaginative oppressors of mankind of any sort of organizational composite. Free enterprise, individual prosperity apart from corporatism, privacy, free public speech and so forth are lumped in with the proletariat foes of management.
Adam Smith believed free markets would best regulate themselves by supply and demand processes with an ‘invisible hand’, yet Smith never foresaw the growth of an extra invisible hand of corporatism that would strangle the non-corporatist free market and government too. Government must serve the people and national interests rather than corporate interests. Corporations must fend for themselves globally if they will, yet the government should support the rights and interests of individual citizens living legally in the United States. Flooding the nation with illegal aliens is another method by corporatists to undermine national prosperity and political independence from their globalist totalitarianism. Globalists want a nation of peons to support a layer of non-physically working management parasites. Globalists also co-opt and undermine independent intellectual enterprises when possible by extinction or hostile takeover.
‘The Social Siege of Nature’ by Michael Soule' described some of the problems society has in addressing the mass extinction of biodiversity underway. There are a number of philosophical errors that render correction of the destruction of God’s creation on Earth difficult to correct. God appointed mankind masters of nature not destroyers of it. Any good ship master would protect and develop his ship not burn the planks. As given in the parable of the talents, it is a bad idea to take God’s natural creation and destroy it instead of to increase it so far as to green Mars and build a vast number of artificial worlds within the solar system stacked with wild life able to exist without constant human support. Mankind is running amok under the brainwashing putsch of global corporatism and thoughtless consumerism. How the nation reelected the President in 2004 is a mystery to me.
