The St. Novilistricka Bond--the first seven pages of my philosophical novel-notebook

My philosophical novel The St. Novilistricka Bond is a 47,000 word novel-notebook encapsulating many ideas I have had this year on cosmology, philosophy, planetary ecology, extra-dimensional space-time travel and so forth. The language is specialized and would be difficult for many. I enjoyed writing it, and can recover some of the thought of this time when I move directly on to other things of interest. Not being a scientist immersed in these topics forever, I would tend to forget most as I read history, more cosmology readings,theology or whatever in the next years.

Chapter One
Early in the 20th century, a President of the United States of America named Barrack Hussein Obama cancelled his nation’s plan to return to the Earth’s moon with a Constellation continuity plank of the earlier ground breaking Apollo. The first human to step forth upon the moon, Neil Armstrong, urged support for a return of mankind to the moon as a pioneering effort. It would have created a base for off-world techno-scientific development.

The President of the Earth-nation had made a bad decision. The ostensible choice for the manned exploration of Mars, before constructing a moon base for decontamination of returning exo-biologically altered astronauts, led to the direct return several decades later of one extended stay Martian voyageur; Frank Lasceaux,to the Obama Space Deprogramming Facility at Chicago.

Lasceaux was a good Republicorporatist manager of second world aspirant class trainees in Afghanistan. His genome was altered on Mars either through nanovirus growth agents planted by earlier Martian visitors or synthetic life form cultures insinuated on Earth and given a chance to grow during the extended stay. His reconstruction was scarcely noticeable through three months at the Earth Exon Energia Observation Containment Dome in level five security.

Freed up from the observational security he traveled to Nuevo Yorka for holiday and morphed into an exo-organiform—a parisoid, that ate Nuevo Yorkans and most of the population of the Earth. It turned out there was a silver lining in the cascade of exo-virus on Earth—the survivors restarted the Constellation program to land on the Earths moon and constructed a gravity lab and exobiological decontamination facility.

J. Lloyd Clifford was the first Earth scientist at the Level Six Decontamination facility on the moon to be contacted by the aliens.

They explained they were far smarter than Earthmen, and rightly avoided contact with humans until they could communicate through extra-dimensional gravity virtual emersion in no-space contexts. Jon reported the anomalous message, yet it was generally ignored as the more important effort to colonize Mars from the moon base was in full production with space ships built and launched with electronic mass drivers.

It wasn’t until the year the Alien 2134 arrived at Mars nearly fifty years later that any humans would make contact with anyone through the alternative philosophical cosmological paradigm of non-Riemannian extra dimensional gravitational protocols of transformative mass. Yet I digress…

The point of a non-dimensional origin of all Universes; anything is possible I suppose. M.C. Escher's artworks have juxtaposed surface topologies. A flip side would seem to apply a paradigm similarity if not a mirror image.Knowledge would need to be in the same side as the one we exist in unless the Universe was constructed in such a way that our bodies exist in this universe and the knowledge our minds get are in another, alternate dimension-- such as the one galactic global warming deniers inhabit (only joking).

If space-time geometry is background independent; if gravity conforms space-time to local clusters of gravitons, will gravitons be affected in traveling through space-time at parsec scale, will the waves attenuate; to what extent may the gravitons exist without mass present? Is it gravitons that cohere to our particular human sentient mass that would make us compact in space-time if we accelerate toward or beyond the speed of light? Photons have no charge in mediating the electromagnetic field, and gravitons may have charge that attract themselves, so is space itself a little different and a repellant of gravitons, could gravitons be neutralized while retaining form in a human body to allow the individual to accelerate beyond light speed without being compacted by space-time geometry particular to gravitons embedded in mass?

Mobius strips and examples of unusually constructed dimensions moving us away a little, from the topic of a non-dimensional point such as physicists write about with boundary layers and fluid dynamics--about which I know little. I believe a philosophical contemplation of such an abstract topic differs from that physical cosmologists represent with comparative, qualitative positions of a point or points in a temporal field.

I was unwinding with Lush. At the summit of Old Schlepleglaubt the wind was interminably cold and yet seemed stale as it was fixed to a geographic conformal-zone rectification subductor. Global warming continued increasing after the unaccountable, responsible neo-sentients had consumed most accessible resources and gone under.

Lush and I watched a holo-image in the air over a natural rock bench. Research of Subductor's exopogenic overheated atmosphere by neo-sentient pollution provided evidence of dittoed dooming at latitude and altitude of the viable biosphere of the world. It was the extraction of knowledge from decayed worlds and my own analysis of the Earth chaos leading to apocalypse sub-prime that brought us to Subductor, for it also had experienced social brain-lock.

"It's the way my second home world-the planet Earth developed its own relationship to the eternal teleology Lush. Human nature was fundamentally evil and brought about its own social ruin."

"I think that's saying quite a lot Patrick. How could human nature be socially evil and yet function as a continuum?"

"Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the prophets of God described the deterministic future history of the Earth and the way that would evolve as an apocalypse. The power of evil that exists in mankind is the same will as that of Satan-the most egregious evil spiritual power known. Humanity evolved Satan's will on Earth freely through its nature. Competitive, striving, unconcerned about the real well-being of others--primates humanity groomed as champions of those it believed were powerful enough to destroy themselves. Conflict and consumption with pride are regarded as the highest values. Naturally that leads to global totalitarianism."
"Patrick; I have read some of the nominal reports of 21st century Earth history. The triumph of globalism under a form of capitalism called corporatism existed concurrently with neo-socialism. Wasn't corporatism pluralistic?"

"Lush, corporatism became a network of pervasive social power. As in the communist party of the Soviet Union, elites had a higher standard of living than the proles or masses that fundamentally had no political choices. In the United States the nominal democracy appeared pluralist, yet because both major parties were allegiant to global corporate employers concentrating wealth for the elites, pluralism was effectively prevented.
In the corporatist world the Orwellian society was perfected with anti-truth values replacing truth. The United States in the latter stages of the ending of national independence and submergence in global corporatism was flooded with second world--poorer people--migrating to generally lower the standard of living for the former male working class in areas of work that were not readily subject to corporate control. The United States became a sort of new Indian colony like that ruled by the British in their imperial era, yet the rulers this time were global elites obscure behind layers of corporate owned broadcast news media and loyal government bureaucracies.

Eventually the planet was consolidated politically within four primary divisions ruled by elites, and the elite corporate and socialist boards were heavily interconnected in power and control."

"Well Pat, didn't that create stability politically?"


"No Lush. The reason it didn't was the fact that the economy hadn't transitioned to minimal entropy economics. Strange as it seems to us with awareness of the material, planetary facts of life-economics, those people of the Earth ruling elites, mired in evil, viewed people and resources as depletable. Consumption and higher qualities of life, regardless of the simultaneous depletion of non-renewable resources, was the essential political economy. The wars of Earth Armageddon phase one were about scarce resources and the trophic right of order.

The anti-Christ would stand at the crossroads in a reconstructed Temple while human history culminated in blood and total political subjugation. With the continuing reduction of the ecological viability of the Earth because of an archaic economic methodology of high-entropy non-sustainable economics coupled with the competitive striving nature of primates and primate loyalty, total global war evolved as a mass consumer-spectator fan-scrum in the valley of Armageddon.

Humanity was totally flawed and inevitably took the wrong political and economic turns at every critical political decision block. They increased the power and liberty of sin to corrupt the social contract and the human genome through synthetic redesign."
"I have read enough of the late 21st century Earth history to know that it has been reported a little differently Patrick. Wasn't there a Lemmingway chaos that decimated world population, yet left quite a few people in a variegated warlord and frontier economic polity with some dictators such as Warp Prissy competing against others?"

"Well yes Lush. In fact that is the way it was. The Armageddon hasn't happened yet. I have extrapolated the trends beyond the 23rd century and the global warming regime that made much of North America a new Gobi desert. All of the observable human social traits that brought the first mass Lemmingway human fratricidal die-off on Earth to occur, answer the Biblical parameters and causality for the second and larger, decisive, Armageddon ahead. I thought I would just bounce the paradigm upon you to see what you think."

"From what I know of Earthers and their Martian cousins. I believe it’s a reasonable conjecture. What about the Christians on Earth Patrick? What was their role and impact?"
"By the time of the first Lemmingway the Christians were largely an economic subunit of the global corporate elites. They met in a spiritually incorrect hierarchical church congregation form rather that within a priesthood of egalitarian believers. Consistently they were unable to provide moral economic leadership examples, reinforce national independence from global corporate takeover, or even meaningfully support each other in egalitarian economic, service and health networks. They reduced their capacity for evangelization through missions by about 99% when they consistently elevated just a champion primate to be church leader."
"Then they failed to learn the message of Jesus Christ that the way of the Temple priesthood was over."

"Sure they did Lush. Still, I think many church-going Christians were saved and may be saved ahead before actual, perhaps poor Christians are evicted from the Churches conclusively.

Bible prophecy indicates the future to us. It may mean that in time only the politically correct, those acceptable to the anti-Christ, will be permitted to attend church. A church structured to reflect secular elite social training values"

"So if the masses prefer totalitarianism--veiled, prefer conformity to the will of Satan, there will always be elites ready to enjoy the material power they can gain from the pathos of the human condition in church and political, economic and corporate leadership." Lush related.
"That is so Lush. The way to correct that state of being is difficult, perhaps impossible. Maybe we can delay the onset of Armageddon on Earth together should we ever find a way to visit that planet or at least set back the starting date a while. Earthers are pretty hardheaded about dong things the wrong way though.

They have a duplicitous political dialogue in which a false political consciousness is contextually saturated amidst the masses. They believe that they are practicing a kind of democracy when corporatists have entirely subjugated them.

They will outsource their independence and defend the right to be enslaved without believing they are. So if we can study enough worlds that have descended into the seven hells of existential globalism and de facto political totalitarianism maybe we can find a solution."

"I read Isaac Asimov's 'Foundation Trilogy' and sequels in hyper-mem Patrick. The Harry Seldon plan of psychohistory didn't mention a verisimilitude of the satanic ontology. Neither did they seem to find a solution of the sort you would like as an interventionist."

"Well Lush, I'm not Isaac Asmiov-just an ordinary Martian philosopher, so I am not limited to his scientific, rational extrapolations. I am free to pursue the metaphysical unknown without regard for scientific method. I promise you that I will be logical dear Lush.

Subductor has three poles on its hyper spheres extruding through seven extra micro-dimensions. The arrested development of universes sometimes creates dwarf universes splicing through our underlying unified field with non-conformist topology. These dimensions may conform to space-time geometry fluxes.

The polar regions lose ice cover entirely in summer when minimal cooling contribution from the near absolute zero temperature in the extruding dimensions --mostly filtered to remain below Planck length by time structure impermeability-- was overcome by the heat of the local system star in three proximally meaningful spatial dimensions.

Planetary electro-magnetic transportation tubes lined Subductor’s continental and oceanic crusts. Lush and I vacated the oppressive heat outdoors of the urban work and programming hive for relief. The archaeological work site was a tedious place such that we valued our time away from the hive of Media Corporate Chimera. The high country was our time to reflect upon the extent of the Universe, and ways to escape from the ubiquitous presence of evil that had arisen to encroach myriad galaxy cycles.

In the proximal beginning of this Universe, an abundance of matter and energy were liberated from a non-zero content at near initial singularity. Matter and anti-matter canceled each other out nearly entirely through c.p. invariance, and the surviving mass was embedded in a space-time scalar field that inflated faster than light following the word-information for starters. At least that’s a theory.

Radiation energy in this first instant of inflation was greater than matter density enabling the inflation, if an inflation occurred. Space-time expansion speed was immense and would slow only as the energy level dissipated in the expanding universe while the nearly uniformly dispersed matter would begin to coalesce in dust clouds into the logic of gravitationally induced black holes.

Black holes inducting primal matter generated brilliant light quasars generating the power for stellar synthesis from the gas clouds of primal matter surrounding black holes and their force-effecting matrix. The black hole concentrations of mass would generate anti-gravity phenomena accelerating the expansion of the Universe for several billion years after the beginning.

Black holes are at the core of nearly every galaxy if something else doesn’t create that effect such as umbilical cords of space-time geometry tied off without any mass within them consequent to over-twisting of space-time geometry. Space-time belly buttons in the middle is just one way to understand the hyper-dimensional short-sheeting and stretching of select regions of space-time without the background independent supposition of contiguous relativistic space-time geometry superimposed upon it.

As space-time expands, the finite number of galaxies in the Universe--perhaps a trillion more or less, are drawn farther away from each other, yet they oppositely draw the surrounding galaxies toward themselves through gravity.

The standard cosmological model of the 20th century with Einstein's theory of general relativity predicated a spherical or closed universe that might even contract after a time. Einstein placed a cosmological constant of energy as a kind of pressure to allow the Universe to resist contraction.

Astronomical observations supported the idea that space-time was expanding faster toward a big rip in a few billion years. That time criterion was consistent with the conversion of mass in to anti-gravity within black holes throughout the Universe. That criterion was not anticipated within general relativity, and yet it might have been very easily.

Every force in the universe, except gravity, is known to have a charge of positive and negative. Because gravity is associated with space-time construction, the sole place it may be manifested is within the confining anti-space-time of the black holes of the Universe. Theorists have sought the location of the matching force of gravity-it's missing partner that would keep a principle of the gross neutrality of energy as aspects of mass.

The planet Subductor is at the distant edge of the habitation zone of a galaxy in the Virgo Super-cluster toward which the Milky Way Galaxy and all the other galaxies of the local group of galaxies are/were moving approximately simultaneously with a 600 kilometer per second motion toward the more distant Hydra-Centaurus super-cluster of galaxies. Lush Spice and I arrived on Subductor in a one-way time lock duality reassembly from the Milky Way where in a former life I had worked through the Martian revolution and the imperial war of Warp Prissy to conquer the ten planets of Sol.

Subductor was a world that had evolved through the common stages of anthropogenic ecological doom as a reciprocal of social implosion. Unregulated social growth leads to the rule of organized crime and conflict with individual intelligence. Social reality disconnects with environmental actuality, and social prospects become absolutely relative without regard for existential liberty of individual potential. Social freedom is purchased through the annihilation of individual existence.

The people of Subductor had let themselves be morphed into a computational friendly geologic matrix. Absolute values of appearance and idea were given over to experiences flowing within the latticework of continuous circuitry where each Subductor cell had its own crystal structure. In time a computer designed synthetic life evolution had replaced the remnant twits of Subductor.

While the biological life of Subductor was virtually extinct, the planet's carbon and crystal continental topology had gained millions of new extrusive boulders and cubical shapes synthesized from artificial progeny boot-ups from nano-data segments to actualize new semi-sentient computing life forms containing some measure of the being of the evolved, former human species on Subductor.

The comparatively inhuman takeover worried Lush and I, yet we too were electronically drawn toward Subductor's geologic topology and it's perennial permutation and political empowering of algorithms of control and subjugation of units of atomic protocols of computational experience of 'reality' as illusions in-themselves. We could do no less for the atomic attractor field of the computational geology was charismatic. The prospect of nano-virus hostile takeover was never an impossibility though we coated ourselves with an anti-nano virus spray .
This Universe is like a drop into an infinite ocean viewed in reverse. The ocean is a perturbative vacuum perhaps of infinite size, possibly of one or infinite dimensions. Each universe inflation is a quantum mechanical phenomenal symmetry breaking virtual existence extruding for a finite period of space-time before total recall into the one absolute field of the eternity resembling perturbative vacuum.

An infinite number of cosmological theories may be invented and adumbrated onto the apparent facts and events of the universe we exist in. Many of those theories will equally well account for the observable facts of physical existence experienced, and none will ever accurately reach an absolute, exclusive and definitive account for the origin of the Universe to its ultimate source.

Faith is required at several points to fill in the missing frame of reference footings. Faith accounts for the phenomenal existence of a perturbative vacuum, and where and when and why in the pre-big bang cosmology of things such a nearly eternal field of phenomenality could arise, or always did.

If such fundamental structures comprised the origin of a radion or vice versa, issues arise regarding why the construction of an expanded universe occurs. The word to begin-a kind of fat lady singing a high note breaking the symmetry of a perfectly composed non-dimensional point that is in a spiritual balance--a primordial non-dimensional Liebnitzian monad might have been spoken. Maybe God created the Universe to experiment with artistic designs of intervals and energy-appearance in a scalar, temporal field?

Why should a system of multi-verses and contingent dimensions always be unbalanced, or unstable, and why would an eternally stable structure of any size such as a non-dimensional point every change without an outside force acting upon it?

There are many possible relationships between knowledge and dimensions, energy and dimensions, and of knowledge about energy and dimensions obviously. In 1996 Earth Chrono history a Gasperini wrote that 'toward a non-singular pre-big bang cosmology'. The elimination of singular points of origin within cosmological history is an approach possible with string theory I believe, yet the issues of proximal and fundamental origins of mass would then be transferred for philosophical purposes to virtual particles in the pre-big bang vacuum. Each virtual source of mass could be thought of as infinitely endowed yet finite when emerged into the peer space before the big bang-such that each does not bring its own displacement of every other virtual particle emerging space.

BP Gulf Oil SPill Prelude For Shell Arctic Ocean Oil Spill?

It is said that the BP oil disaster in progress may have been releasing as much oil as the Exxon Valdez spilled--every four days. It makes sense. BP said that the well in production was to have brought out 50,000 barrels per day, so if the well head is broke releasing oil that is how much oil reasonable should have been released to destroy ocean health.

Scientists at several universities have made estimates of how much oil is gushing from the wellhead at 50,000 to 100,000 barrels per day based upon particulate flow, knowledge of pipe diameters, velocity of photographed affluence and so forth. BP perhaps intentionally underestimated the amount of toxic liquid being released by a factor of ten, yet of course there is a small chance they could be truthful and the scientists wrong.

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN2017961320100120?type=marketsNews Shell Oil plans to drill three offshore oil wells starting this 2010 in ocean north of Alaska

The trouble with allowing more oil drilling offshore in Alaska is that it is a result of the pervailing corproatist political environment holding financial leverage and economic input in present non-renewable form to be the highest material good. That is of course plain wrong--there are innumerable alternative value theories possible, many of which within free enterprise economic criteria would de-collective the mass global network control of natural resource use and economic direction in the United States and create limits for it.

Such a calculus of area and particulars would rectify the creeping sprawl over the borders of the United States of national economic self interest. President Obama has done nothing at all so far to move the economy toward a national principle of self-reliance and adequacy for all American citizens. In the Arctic Ocean the desire to plunder the comnparatively pristine region by global corpoations such as Royal Dutch Shell will lead to interference with efforts to preserve the viability of life on Earth and bio-diversity in the Arctic. Oil spills will intentionally develop to squash talk of and efforts to create environmental safety for endangered species--the simplest thing is to just destroy the habitat of endangered species and the speciues and then the discussion is fait acompli. Their was a phenomena of intensional design in the Exxon Valdez Oil spill, and of course the 10 billion dollar judgenebt against it was later set aside by a Bush era court. The corrupt phenomena of the BP oil disatser wellhead failures may never be known beyond proximal causes, yet it too seems more than a little suspicious. There are of course unanswered questions about the J.F.K. murder at Dallas. Some things are never really understood by general history.

In order to create a better union in the United States, a new nationalist political party should be formed dedicated to the interests of the people of the United States before those of globalist manipulators of abstract financial currency and insurance trading. For civil rights to have any real value they must be tied to real estate--rather like the pegging of the value of a paper dollar to a particular commodity. Value theory should be rectified to adequacy and self-reliance, conservation of non-renewable and renewable resources at sustainable use levels. Individuals should not be allowed to invest in more than three corporations, no corporation should have more than 5000 employees, zero illegal immigration ought to occur, for that corrupts civil rights to earn a fair wage by U.S. citizens in America, and a national and international principle of trying to locally produce enough to sustain the resident population on local resources within rational environmental conservation limits should be set forward; only when comparative trading advantages on a proximal, environmental and demographic basis are found should international trade proceed. Presently the international trade operates on a non-rational, non-ecologically cognizant principle of most exploitable unit to produce abstract paper profit for those concentrating abstract paper value power. That is a disasterous formula for world environmental health sustainability.

The Shell Plan supported by corrupt U.S. Senators is another plank in the non-rational destruction of environmental health in the United States and on Earth.

Harvard Alum Obama Throws Harvard Kegger at Supreme Soviet

Like the period after the death of the dictator Stalin, the U.S. Supreme Court faces reorganization as did the Supreme Soviet High Court. A period of globalism and international expansionist subversion of the K.G.B. was in accord with the end of the nationalist development period of the Soviet Union as it looked abroad for increase of world communism. Following the end of the cold war U.S. and trans-national corporation has pursued much the same policy. Harvard law alumus President B. Hussein Obama’ choice of former Harvard Law School Dean Keggan is another elitist selection of a Boston globalist lawyer without judicial experience that would tilt the trend of treason on the High Court farther beyond the boundaries of the United States and into the realm of international subterfuge of finance tow which the elite trans-nationalists have become accustomed.

The Congress should swiftly reject the nomination of another Harvard lawyer and request a nominee from the real world outside the Boston-DC axis of economic evil. The financial portfolio of Chief Justice Roberts is already enough for the entire court to be tainted by globalist corporate advantage. One cannot even get a job in a grocery store n Alaska today without filling out an online job application sent to Oklahoma for background check nationally. If those in the corporate global financial ‘underground’ of intrigue and social manipulation wish to deny employment in the United States, it is pathetically simple through the corporate information networks.



The Harvard advantage has created an aristocracy of abomination regarding the declaration of independence and the ideal of elimination of anisotropic social powers before law. Good lawyers from Arizona such as Janet Napolitano would have brought more confidence to the court if those without judicial experience were to be considered yet Dean Keggen from the Harvard Party is a mockery of contemporary social justice.

In the late 18th century of Europe, during the enlightenment era there, were countless revolutions, counter-revolutions, coups and counter-coups as democracy actualized within changing national borders. International aristocracies and continuing reform of social power of the day had much overt political machination as well as publicized organization. It is notable that French noble resistance to tax increase the king sought stimulated public opposition that culminated not only in the removal of the Monarch, but of the nobles as well.

The international world of business has formed a trans-national corporatism definitely in contradiction of the principals of one nation under God ruled by citizens with equal legal rights. Contemporary corporatism and their political shills have finessed out nationalism and democratic self-determinism to an extreme degree. A woman of the people, or man, needs to replace the John Paul Stevens—a judge one with no connection to the pit of Harvard global corporatism that runs roughshod over American enterprise, individualism and privacy and border security.

Some Ideas on Assaults Upon U.S. Labor Value

I believe that the effort to use historical political analysis templates on present political and social circumstances runs the risk of creating straw man 'arguments' to knock down affirmatively or negatively. Mexican exploitation of the United States is simply one aspect of the global economic phenomena of financial globalism today.

The irrationality of financial globalism implicitly arises in the valuation of non-democratic, intangible values such as money, over national interests such as political and social equality, a healthy environment, security and freedom from foreign debt. Fundamentally the political leaders of today fail to have adequate intelligence and common decency, as they would require to overcome the temptations for electronic financial shuffling of abstract capital about at the speed of light across the planet.

The automatic trading program on Wall Street that lost 700 points and recovered it 20 minutes later is an example of the irrational value theories that guide the United States. I believe the corporate and political leaders are essentially philosophical runts in pursuit of money and social advantage who will dissipate the United States and sell it out for a mess of pottage. Their value theories are wrong, their political courage lacking, the good judgment needed to secure a solid, secure, healthy United States with stabile life opportunities for citizens lacking. It is easier to pursue ostrich like war economics without a possibility of benefit for the United States than to design a rational political program to continue the United States along its constitutional parameters with liberty and justice for all citizens.

A reverse planning sequence is usual in military missions. It is something like looking ahead in chess before one makes a reply to a hostile opposition force deployment--for disaster may be structured within the induced directed trap. In Iraq the Bush II administration should have had an exit strategy before starting, and one they were capable of enforcing--otherwise one must enter a war with a blank check and let the chips fall where they may--that is often an irresponsible strategy unless one is just concerned about making money for the oil industry.

Beyond the Sands of Time (poem)

The world and senses of sand quanta

like all quanta rise and fall

with tempos of tides assembling and fading

such temporal illusions as castles of time

drawn together by gravity’s shadows

ebb and flood within a Universe of Idea



Functioning well and deep

inclusive of the illusion of mind it is extended

streets, self and objects, senses materially

formed as inductive engines interpreted

like rainbows and oranges blossomed to fullness



They must slip away into silence

like the parting of the Red Sea

as the spirit ends that slavery within a bondage of time

given unto all fallen beings

silence and non-existence from left and right returns

the promise of more ascension of moments

to fuel the illusion until the illusion of mind itself

yields unto non-existence surging over the soul



A self-aware video plays in a mineral deposit

illusions of motions arise in quarks

compositions shielded by lead, never dead

phenomena like patterns of galaxies swirled



Such are computer programs running

life before death, information hibernation

set for restart, correction and defragging

some are saved through faith, and others lost

sent to the hell of the recycle bin

in a purgatory of freed space bossed



In a bifurcated world of matter and spirit

a city of mankind and a city of God rise

cohering onto a phenomenal destiny

matter and nature take full courses to comprise

being and signs along the beach of time

in the bootstrapped illusion of existential vines



The faithless call the world unto a bristling doom

like prime entertainment as an illusory play

instructing mirages to pleasure boxes for every day

the totality of illusion is a well-governed room

next day, next week, the declining head spins

hoping for silence



Walking with faith the world is a reflection of mind

a spirit is information, experience, being—a soul

for those that have set tomorrow’s course

for the city of God

when temporality ends, the Lord has t

Dehumanization of Statistical Mechanics (poem)

Evolution isn’t competition

competition is a game of chance

dance unlike organisms in quest of food

pursuing leads wherever right moves

they may intentionally construct rationally designed society

in every direction, for gluttony is a rude satiety



Illusion is a comparative term

largest pigs at a trough of concerns

killed when a wavering tree branch crashes

struck down by lightening, illumination matches

struggling runts left rooting far away

sudden storms drifted over to another day

of comparative illusions



Reeds growing on polluted marshes

cattails for vestigial puma

comparative meaning on contingent world forms

reasons to end an aristocracy of corporatism

sending waves of rival private interest breakers

dispersants of democracy concentrate wealth

for allocated order



Illusion refers to the temporal shore

for God actualizes what He wills

to be and become ever

returning to non being



Humanity abstracted in Boyle’s law

statistical quanta gathered for analysis

uncertainty principles of natural law

super-positioned states of all possible social order

collapsed into worldliness and deterministic permutations

though one mind may alter mass behavior

extrusions into statistical formulae, models broken

an aristocracy formed to control the pointillist

echoes of Monet consuming Lutetia’s chords

fading in the Seine flow reflections of time

pastel skies with new orange clouds.

BP Cone of Containment at Oil Spill Cleggs-Oil Eruption Continues Spewing Forth--Dirk Pitt in Retiderment?

One wonders how the U.S. Government arrived in the situation of being at the mercy of foreign and transnational oil corporations for the protection of its Gulf of Mexico coastline. As thousands of barrels of crude oil gush upward from the sub-seafloor reservoirs that was punctured and given a way out to kill the plankton and alter the gill filtering organisms in the sea amongst other unhealthy effects, the U.S. Government has thoughtfully allowed the national guard to be called out perhaps readying to bayonet the oil when it reaches shore. In Clive Cussler novels Dirk Pitt would have stopped the miscreants of Trans-ocean and British petroleum, or at least the manufacturers of the blow-out enabler, before the gusher reached the clean water just 5000 feet below the surface.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601102&sid=aP2ZrjaBp7a4 BP Effort to Contain Oil Spill within Heavy Steel Dome lowered from surface vessel fails in first effort

Of course many people in the oil industry profit come spills or shine when these things occur. Overtime for many oil field workers and pilots attend such phenomena, and fine speeches from foreign CEO’s about how the most brilliant rocket science will contain the flow of product appear in the media, while dispersants on the public regard for environmental purity of our precious oceanic fluids is enfiladed as a joke—where were those environmental defenders of the “homoland” security when the suave broadcasters traduced them in subtle yet clear rave demotic? Maybe oil is payback for the effort to gay up the military—reason is deficient in economic and perhaps game theory will prove the real behavioral eventualities before they occur yet. With the containment dome pipeline clogged up by freezing hydrates the outcome of the BP election is in doubt--so far the Torries seem to have a slight lead over labor with Nick Clegg in the driver's seat for breaking up the electoral jam.

The U.S. Government—that troubled equalizer of women’s rights to rule through radio and government service—reasonable enough if that can be done without illegal alien cheap labor perhaps, ought to have had a special broken oil trapping submarine lurking like a vast right wing catfish to set upon the busted wellhead like an echinoderm (starfish) going after a clam dug in deep. Maybe it could be designed to resemble a large, traditional U.F.O. able to withstand the crushing pressures of a mile below the surface of the ocean where not even country songs beginning with ‘well I’ can be heard. The Government rightly ought to heed the voices broadcast and sing top BP they must put there hands up, for the administration has brushed with a bottle of jack and won’t be coming back.

If the U.S. Government has not intervention surveillance submarines designed to encapsulate any kind of broken deep ocean pipeline to allow it to be fixed, it ought not allow offshore oil corporations to drill in U.S. waters. Such a blind trust in the benevolence of foreign oil corporations is consistent with the kind of government that would reform immigration laws, after 10 or 20 million illegals arrive. Prevention is better than a Euro of cure for political and economic disease. In the rush to receive corporate campaign support, U.S. politicians too readily overlook practical defense requisites for U.S. employment, economic and environmental security.

Nash Equilibrium Odds for Abolition of U.S. Government

I wanted to write something about Nash equilibrium as a tool for social research. I will move on to other topics in subsequent posts very likely. Not being a mathematician or social scientist my information on the topic is limited. Having occasion to read something on the subject I believed it worth providing a little criticism.

The Declaration of Independence of the United States is the most sacred of secular political documents. Pertaining to revolution…

“That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

Nash equilibrium, as I will discuss below, presents challenges to formation of popular opinion sufficient to support overthrow of the U.S. Government. If globalism and unsound economic and environmental practices are sufficient reason to abolish the present government of the United States and its sedimentary personages, Nash equilibrium equations provide the data set probability that it is unlikely that popular opinion could be formed to support such a movement to rational ecological economic principals and nationalism.

The New testament parable of Jesus Christ—the parable of the talents, offers a context somewhat like that of the prisoner’s dilemma modeled and resolved by Nash equilibrium calculus, yet unlike the secular context of the Nash criteria, in which the people given the talents had not only secular concerns but eternal issues as well, secular revolutionaries have mostly issues involving allegiance and risk in which their self interest in keeping social rights and asserting geophysical control implicit experience present rather than future risk as the revolutionary movement severs ties with the corrupt global government concentrating wealth, corrupting the environment and constructing vast public debt.

I believe that philosophically it is too commonly the case that many social researchers of behavior would like a simple equation that could be applied like a magical phrase to understand how the masses of humanity behave and why. With so many people in the world it might be helpful to find a kind of algorithmic compression—an equation like game theory’s Nash equilibrium, to provide a condensed version of facts, or even omit the need to have competent human understanding altogether. If one has an equation, the why have years of reading of human social history to have a dead reckoning good judgment of why things are the way they are?

I will curtail berating ignorance in social and physical sciences regarding depth or lack of it in reading and understanding interdisciplinary topics from philosophy, history, science and such. The why people make social misjudgments isn’t so important as where they can go from a given position without creating havoc and chaos deleterious for themselves and for-others. Intelligent leadership is sometimes of more value than a legion of deterministic behaviorists finding a formula from the moon and stars to explain what they see as genetically hard-wired human behavior. The astrology fallacy of social science theory with a sacred equation is a challenge to common sense.

With the possible misguided effort to create another war front in Pakistan/Central Asia, as a wrong way to gain the security of the united States from foreign terrorists, there s ample example of the manifest stupidity in public thought created by pursuit of money, global business and lack of intelligent leadership. These are not deterministic political ad social phenomena, but default ones because of the failure to regard intelligence and reality as being as important as mass distribution of materials, concentration of representative fiscal wealth, or even the provisioning of mass social ‘laws’ of human behavior replete with equations.

Needless to say I have complete respect for Nash and his mathematical mind, it is simply the profound stupidity of the way ideas are applied existentially that is of interest here. I can only provide a brief fragment of the ideas and criticism I might have on this subject for lack of time and opportunity to construct more. I would rather be employed earning enough for housing next winter anyway, yet that is not possible today.

Reaching Nash equilibrium in the distribution of item-units of abstract, idealized representational systems is a popular method of calculating social decision concatenations of masses. A premise of authority of mind and matter relationship and definition is synthesized within a deterministic framework, and the logical fallacy of begging the point regarding the relationship between mind and matter is set-aside in the reductionist presentation of item-units as quanta within a statistical paradigm.

I had hoped here to bring something of the consideration of Nash equilibrium in social psychology to the Biblical parable of the talents, and the distribution of talents—perhaps something like the prisoners dilemma regarding a choice between conservation or defection, yet I see in second thought that the parable was not within an arbitrarily competitive social circumstances regarding inter-group distribution of talents, but instead concerned the relationship of the individuals allotted various quantities of talents to the author of existence (God) through metaphor.

Nash equilibrium is another method of forming an equation between various constants or variables. Numbers are of course largely one dimensional items given value in relation tot their position within a field. The field may be linear such as in natural numbers, or multi-dimensional to any extent. Number is essentially a coordinate value or magnitude within a field frame of reference. Numbers within a field need not change in a scalar progress at one dimensional vector, yet may increase with change in other dimensional fields with a change in acceleration through time or space. To experience more spatial extension in a brief interval than another comparative traveling item in space, is effectively to increase the value of time, yet of course in the actual world the number of levels of protocol dimensions is uncertain, and perhaps variable in relation to the manner in which a collapse of wave-field interactive selection occurs, as well as the potential actual forms of quantum field structure in any possible space-time given.

Nash equilibrium provides a reciprocal paradox, when applied to human psychology, of assuming a static dimensional representation value for calculation of the behavior and selection of social masses. The intellectual choice is reflected in nature, or even drawn from natural evolution, and the returned to conscious human choice as a statistical concatenation of individual choices selected by the complexity of evolved behavior.

I should stipulate that I believe that necessary human behavior in relationship to the physical requisites of life provided by an environment is primarily limited to discovery of methods for satisfying those needs, and that inventiveness tends to find more avenues for satisfaction of such needs, as if water could be input from special foods with enough water content to eliminate the actual needs for drinking a liquid. Such an adaptive change may alter other physiological processes in a human body over time obviously, yet intentional inventiveness to free social members from environmentally given needs seems a natural response and evolution.

Nash equilibrium of discovery of a balance within a given system is in economics a reflection of the historic evolution of a false awareness of the intended meaning of Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations. Smith was against an oppressive aristocracy corrupting freedom for commoners to run their own affairs—it was a political as well as an intellectual revolution commensurate with the era. If alive today he would be equally against global corporate aristocracy destroying the interest of nations and national interest of ‘commoners’ in creating a nation-based renewable ecological economic system meeting the minimum living standards of all within an ecologically conservative paradigm. A free health care system for the poor, a medical corps of publicly trained doctors who would work for 7 years at 75,000 annually before returning to their own nations as licensed physicians—would reduce medical costs in the U.S.A. and increase the number of well educated physicians abroad. Adam Smith was for a healthy nation and populace free of global exploitation by corrupt elements overly concentrating capital in aristocratic networks.

Nash equilibrium is simply one tool for researching given social phenomena, yet the macro-social structure in which the equilibrium is reached is itself subject to intentional change. In eras when social scientists and politicians are not intellectually sterile, more effort is put into construction of a utopian society than in observing a declining society as ‘scientists’ with misapplied formulae and equations observing in error that a deterministic, natural and immutable phenomena is unfolding before their eyes. Such an economic paradigm is the wish of supremacists in economics who pursue cash and power for-itself without regard to the real world and real existential prospects for individual security and actualization within a healthy planetary ecosystem.

Beige Bomber Arrested--BP Oil Disaster Flows On, Eduard Amorereau Interrogation of an Oily Engineer

Leaving the homeless press facility in Wasilla Alaska, fresh from enrichment re-education in New York (to save money at the lowest- cost college re-education camp in America concerned as he was with reducing the Federal debt), the free lance Eduard Armorereau is heard to have said, or said to have heard, such an interesting report that it almost reads like fiction...

I had an exclusive interview with the insider oil industry engineer I shall refer to as an interesting person at a wireless espionage coffee-café on Houston’s Richmond Avenue. After the brand news of the arrest of a beige Pakistani at New York's J.F.K. Flughaven, this was the most interesting item of the day so far. It gave me an insight into secret executive planning to contain, finesse and control the unforeseeable illicit, free issuance of ‘product’ (also known as 5000 barrels of oil per day) from a BP oil platform on the abyssal plain way down below the surface (that hiterto had been a refuge for extremist environmentalist seafoods of sealife) nearly two weeks ago into the no longer pristine water of Gulf of Mexico.

I asked the engineer known as ‘Deep Boat’, who was sitting at a corner table in the café below a large color photo of a famous Pemex platform oil disaster that gushed oil for several weeks a couple decades ago into the Gulf of Mexico, if he remembered anything like this ever happening before?

“No twitt. Zapata himself would have been hit like an innocent in the Oort Cloud from such a bolt out of the blue. Frankly it could not have been predicted that a blowout preventer could fail. This is an act of Thor.”

Do you really think so?

“Well, no. That was my third-place thought.”

What were your first and second?

‘My second brilliant idea was that the mountain hillbilly terrorist planner Oz Bin Bomber brought bought influence in the oil industry to sabotage a venerated blow-out preventer in order to smear the pristine beaches of the retirement home estate Colonel--the late former President Jefferson Davis int Biloxi Mississippi.”

That is a terrifying prospect Deep Boat. What was you first idea for the cause of the disaster?

“Cheap labor, illegal aliens and too much alcohol can make that equipment become improperly installed. I plan to have my Richard Feynman moment before a congressional hearing with a roomful of press cameras. I have already received a million dollar contract to wear a shirt to the hearing with an advertisement from a Japanese footwear manufacturer…’Sushi Shoes Sans Succi-4 Spray on Anti-Callous Running’.

Deep Boat, what are the real prospects for stopping the leak from the benthos right away?

“None at all. We have instead designed a satisfactory containment plan. The wind will constantly shift to drive the oil away from sensitive beaches and critical habitat for politicians in affected gulf states and move the free crude to the skimming prissy free loading beaches of Florida. Florida is a no drill state and deserves the mess more than Mississippi. Yet it could easily be a communist plot of the Cubans to steal crude oil knowing that currents may take the gist of it to Cuba shores where it can be recycled in green way an power Cuban cars.”

That’s a mind, numbing all thought, Deep Boat. What about putting a cork in the blown wellhead?

“It’s five thousand feet deep you idiot! When these unforeseeable things go wrong and our games theory modeling of benthos oil structures fail we must use games theory modeling on propaganda containment of formation of adverse political opinion. We have ample dispersants for that. Even the President left after a few hours, and a terrorist of the beige bomber faction from Dubai placed a smoking SUV in Times Square designed by a pre-school to explode when the mouse ran up the clock.”

Do you know these Middle Eastern pre-scholars yourself Deep Boat?

“Net, it’s only a rumor at a rival scuttlebutt wireless Internet café.”

Well then, time is fleeting. Have you learned anything else that we might name as credible scuttlebutt Deep Boat?

“There is a plan to manufacture several immense submersible barges called by the industry Halibut ledge blow-out preventers offshore in tactical locations along the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico at a depth of 1000 feet. Designed to resemble Alaska halibut, these barges are five stories high and larger than Noah’s Ark in length. At first sign of smell of a future vast deep-sea oil affluence the Halibut will leave their deep sea ledge and swim with magneto-hydrodynamic thrust at a thousand miles per hour to the location of the oil leak and encapsulate it thought the sliding moon pool door in the milky white hull. All bubbling, rising light sweet crude oil will flow inside t the mechanical separator and laboratory rectification process of justification. None of the precious oil will be lost. Instead it will be processed by the automatic rescue halibut and fed into a pipeline augmentation splicing mechanism for high speed transport to distant SUVs fueling social progress in Dubai.”

That is important for bi-lateral political relations isn’t it Deep Boat?

“You’ve got that right son. Peace is the real goal of the selfless work at Bugger Petroleum. Defeating the socialists, overthrowing the commune, requires never-ending and unrecognized vigilance—even heroism and open heart surgery with high tech robotic submersible vehicles from cold and dusty control rooms, lots of lobbying and oodles of enterprising legislation. Remember---rust never sleeps.”

That patriotic reminder from an oil company great concluded the interview. Assured that the oil industry would improve the aquatic health of the Gulf of Mexico I got into my 1965 Coup Deville for a drive along the Katy Freeway down to San Antonio and lunch with Alexjendro Vargas at the Alamo High Speed Wireless Internet Café. He was leading an effort to defend Texas from a hostile takeover attempt by illegal aliens to close down free wireless Internet access in U.S. cities and replace it with pay wireless networks exclusive controlled by Mexican drug trafficking gangstas.

The 'Material' Wisdom of Robert Heinlein

Science fiction writers with more than a bit of wisdom tend to be favorite reads of mine. One might think of Heinlein's two most well known books as typical of the rest; Stranger in A Strange Land and Starship Troopers, yet that is not so. Many of Heinlien's books are topics of more general human and philosophical interest.

Something of a social realist, I enjoy the spiritual element in Heinlein that recognized so many potential areas of new, innovative philosophical thought. The implicatives for cosmology and social selection for actualization in a challenge-response criterion on the human side of experience-- extrapolations of given technologies and biological facts, are hypothetically elaborated.

His 'Time Enough for Love' is a complete enough treatment of the known scientific biological facts of life at the time, and of the centrality of heterosexual relations as the social foundation of life. His treatment of genetics is extraordinarily interesting, even in retrospect. The conclusions Heinlein sketches are physically possible though rather repulsive; Lazarus, aka. Woodrow Wilson Smith, is not the best of humanity—perhaps just one gifted at survival and common sense. As the eldest of all humans regenerated countless times through cloning and other techniques he lacks some of the arête or virtue that ought to transcend even the manifestly physically evident—

One can make moral decisions if suitably inclined toward spirituality without prioritizing matter for-itself. Moral meanings can cohere within a spiritual-intellectual matrix. Such a spiritual paradigm follows the a priori rather than an interpretive paradigm of the extensional or empirical matter of experience. The failing of Lazarus Long to be more than just an excellent log roller on the phenomena of life leads to unusual evolutions mixed in sentimentality.

Heinlein has outlined one way a wayward humanity could go if it were capable—personally I think he was overly optimistic regarding science applied to transmogrification of human life, yet he was unaware of some of the potential science has created since to more radically transform and end the present nature of human existence. Well, one may read the history of Attila and the Hun invasion of the Roman Empire for relief.

I haven’t enough understanding of genetics to answer the question that arises in reading ‘Time Enough for Love’; if female clones are made from a man’s x genetic component, and he impregnates them, what would the progeny be genetically—more clones, or permutated genetic sequencing? Lazarus Long reaches the conclusions along with society generally that the sole wrong in sexual reproduction is the production of defective progeny. Because all genes are screened before mating to determine if defective births would occur, it becomes morally a non-sequiter for Lazarus Long to have sex with relatives so if the genetic examination people determine that no defectives will result inn marriage. Morality lacks a spiritual element in the brave new world of the very long-lived.

Genghis Khan also has had several interesting history books written on his life and times that one may find good alternative reading. While the United States plants war eggs of offshore oil wells and onshore nuclear plants that will serve as accelerants in improvisational explosive devices for a future conventional war attack on the U.S. economy, these genetic moral war eggs for future material confusion are being sponsored by federal tax support too. Remotely piloted submersibles, r.p.v. and drone aircraft will be able to ignite upon foreign discretion any and all vulnerable offshore oil infrastructure when convenient. In 1989 the Exxon Valdez oil spill altered the state of Alaska policy from a growing transformation away from reliance on oil to one of just basic, survival. The Gulf Coast of the U.S.A. has also experienced a reduction in intelligence through a variety of mass insults. Incompetent levy maintenance before Hurricane Katrina, a profusion of offshore oil platforms often controlled by foreign powers—these levers of globalist power over the economic security of the United States are clear and present dangers largely ignored in the District of Corruption.

A U.S. political environment foisting a constellation of offshore oil infrastructure upon sensitive ocean habitat presents a what me worry defense posture. Taxpayers are expected to pay for what amounts to a corporatist oil defense military force to lock down the security of vast tracks of coastal waters from potential improvised jet ski vectors for explosives ordinance launched from distant ships smoke on the horizon, or helions on terror junkets from abroad locked on courses of self-destruct with grappling hooks and pentex. The Chairperson of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mullahs, has a plan to homosexually liberate the Navy with SecDef Gates. Congress is content with the defense response evidently. Reminds me of when Admiral Sanchez wanted 50,000 barrels of free oil from Alaska for the Pacific Fleet before the Exxon Valdez spill, and was turned down by Alaska Gov. Cowper. Oil disaster is always waiting to land on sensitive U.S. coastal environments, and probably those of Africa too.

In the story, Lazarus Long has lived for nearly 4700 years and recounts elements of his experience to a very great great...grandson. His experiences of society, politics, experience, space travel, pioneering of other worlds is full of interesting early American kinds of pioneering information as well. The book is a full kind of Cliff's Notes verisimilitude to making lists of things to fill a Conestoga wagon setting out for the unknown on an Earth-like world.

If one considers radical future galactic pioneering, it may be that complete self-reliance on non-technical items that could be forged from raw materials would be necessary. Independent pioneers might take advanced data bases along with them, yet high tech equipment requires a vast economic foundation to construct--if one part is missing the entire factory of culture may collapse letting the hapless pioneers starve. We may tend to look at Star Trek and magic box production machines as the future of real space colonization, yet that may be self-deceptive, for an independent colonization future of explorers and pioneers scattered throughout the galaxy may have no contact with an advanced civilization able to produce modern goods at all, nor could they take along such equipment with them and expect it to last forever. The Maytag repairman would be a long time in reaching an obscure planet several light years away.

That was one of the reasons I was so disgusted with President Obama's decision to skip the moon and raise the bar to some vague Martian future. Neglecting to establish a practical down-to-moon base of self reliant materials pioneers able to live without Earth resupply forever-even if that is just in potential and people only live their a few years at a time doing research-means that a practical, self-reliant Martian colony will as well be neglected and fail to appear the next century.

The federal government prefers 'flashy' one-off disposable symbolic ventures rather than pioneering bases on extra-terrestrial locations. As a leader in moon base development the U.S. Government could bring in teamwork from the International community of space developers, and missions of true space-ships constructed on the moon to be launched to mars in advance of human explorers, with supplies and shelters that could provide substantial survival redundancy to encourage a self-reliant facility as soon as possible. The President’s plan is simply a way to subvert the U.S. leadership in extra-terrestrial development.

That is not too surprising, for the U.S. economy is misdirected by the administration as it was by the previous three administrations. With the financial related service sector being nearly a third of the U.S. economy, and government much of the rest, there is a huge non-materially productive sector of the economy. When these sectors want to increase there income for employees and executives, essentially that means either printing more money, taking money away from the really materially productive sector, or finding cheap workers overseas to exploit. Unfortunately the latter outsources material production from our nation to nations A, B, C, D and E.

The federal government and others can of course borrow money from the materially productive countries to maintain or increase their standards of living for a while, but they won't want to have a substantial space pioneering mission on a moon or another planet for it would cost real money, and as the nation's material production declines many of the components would need to be made overseas. That is one of the fundamental problems with the United States today. Heinlein's books have some interesting ideas on society and economics as well, though perhaps not those given above.

That economic cycle of just increasing creature comforts--a dozen kinds of body wash as if Americans have become smellier than prior generations, fast food restaurants and other food outlets every 50 feet in many cities, 3/4s of young adults far overweight--this is a decadent generation trained that way by the indoctrination of consumerist supply and demand, or those without meaningful values. I believe that may have begun during the Vietnam War era when people got the scream yellow honkers from the Beatles, a Yellow Submarine or some such munchy ethic causality.

While various kinds of liberation occurred for the nation, I think kids suffered when their mothers no longer cooked at home making Yankee pot roast, corn beef and cabbage and various healthy foods. McDonald's is no substitute for home grown and cooked foods. A junk food generation smoking, piling of foreign financed public debt, canceling lunar development is challenged to find transcending, healthy social values. There is a clutter of non-valuable values making investment in the United States difficult.

Individualism was not only respected-it was unavoidable in pioneering generations, for technology had not advanced so far that women canning at home, cooking and so forth could be done without. Inventors in the United States were once world leaders, for the material opportunities to build and idea were in the United States rather than in China, India or Japan. Today, amongst those that are not corporate employees and are free to patent their own ideas, the extra costs of materializing an idea are much higher than before, since the lead in materials production increasing is transferring to China. One must not only have $3000 dollars for a pack of 5 patent applications, one must afford a patent search, higher a patent attorney and perhaps spend hundreds of thousands to defend a patent. Then one must perhaps fly to China to learn how one goes about finding materials producers willing and able to actualize the idea. In the meanwhile the clock is ticking and rivals have interest in your idea generally--and there are other problems such as hiring attorneys abroad to defend pirates of the idea producing in Thailand or some Quack province in China

The challenges presenting to Americans for the insipid federal response to the challenge of making patents affordable to poor, bright U.S. inventors will continue to create a serious loss of economic opportunity to foreign interests. I have given away several ideas myself in public writing after learning of the impossibility of actualizing patentable ideas in the U.S.A.

With the patent trickle up to globalists and the federal political tilt toward macro-economic drift--with utter federal economic incomprehension of the importance of renewability in resource use, defending the nation's borders and the need to set goals and parameters that prioritize national economic self-advantage as an obligation rather than actualizing a vague, amorphous capitalist global theory such that a trickle down to the United States is in the best interest of Americans rather than direct effort to invest and build a self-reliant, independent U.S. future economy,--the United States has set a course toward intentional national disadvantage.

There are those that rationalize that a disadvantaged America is somehow in the nation or the world's interests, and they are wrong. The rich may be comfortable with that idea, Bostonian elites may like that ideas a 'liberal', yet it is simple the result of a lazy and myopic greed. The elites are heavily invested in thee trans-national corporatism corrupting U.S. politics through the media control and through direct political influence.

The United States should present a strong nationalism to the world. A new nationalism that defends itself against terrorism at the borders and through covert foreign intelligence and military work abroad would be more effective and cost less than a misguided conventional war saturation of second world nations to temporarily compel them to like a hypocritical U.S. concept of democracy and perhaps George W. Bush or Barrack Hussein Obama themselves. Many of the poor will always hate the rich in every place on Earth. Many of the repressed will forever hate their oppressors. Many straight people will forever fight the hateful attitude of homosexuals that regard them as potential sex objects and urinate on the idea of marriage as a heterosexual fact. Homosexual 'love' of their straight brothers attitude may be reckoned the kind of love a lion shows to its prey. These things cannot be changed. What should be changed and can be defended are fundamental democratic values of national independence, avoiding of entangling foreign alliances. Self-reliance in economic so far as possible and practical, elimination of public debt and elimination of authoritarianism in any form domestically. All citizens should have an assurance of the necessary items of life such as food, clothing and health care, yet such should be accomplished through reforms that make social safety nets including retirement useful for the people that really need them as insurance against suffering, and as just potentially available to those than can afford to do without them.

One of Heinlein's points was that any nation that requires I.D. of its citizens is probably too advanced and set for collapse. I may not go that far with a somewhat anachronistic idea of Heinlein, yet without somewhere else to go through the invention of a faster than space-time travel method, we must proceed in such a way that the health of the planet's people and ecosystem are attended with extreme care and conservation.

We know that communism is a response to authoritarian oppression of the majority by a minority. It is a power minority bargaining position in war and for revolution. Communism is itself totalitarian and so undesirable by the majority that wish freedom, yet we know that following war and revolution, in the absence of a government chaos reigns until an authoritarian power emerges to rule generally. That is a reason why so many governments are dictatorial following revolutions of any sort--it is difficult to evolve.

In China we see this history--following the revolution against the imperial government a corrupt nationalist government was followed by a corrupt Japanese military presence as well as a civil war and an authoritarian Chinese government. With 1,300,000,000 people, China cannot afford to just get rid of its neo-authoritarian government for it requires regulation to prevent chaos and mass death.

So the Chinese Communist government pursues liberalization in economics to a limited extent to raise its standard of living. Simultaneously it experiences the double bind presented when its formerly majority agrarian rural economic foundation is replaced by internationalism, trading, investments and finance. Such investment has much risk, and brings circumstances to China not within their control. The worst risk is that sudden economic collapse brings deregulation or political revolution and a few million Chinese are killed in the chaos. The chaos is a social organizational phenomenal product of the dynamics of demography and geography more so than of political system choice.

As the United States leadership pursues rather self-deceptive political economics of global investments in the belief that it will benefit the world's poor countries rather than itself, and is a kind of benevolent mentor in economics while actually receiving vast profits for the globalist participating in the process and impoverishing many of its own citizens, it might be useful to look ahead and consider not just political correctness by real politics as well. Basic pioneering sorts of issues about self-reliance no not mean that one must be at war with one's international neighbors.

There are no magic money machines that produce social justice and economic opportunity for all people of the world at a distance better than at home. If one can rectify national economics to that of renewable natural resource basis with full employment and very low population growth with sobriety and dedication to investing in fundamental life bettering technology, one may invest at very low, non-usurious rates, cash in select foreign projects that would help raise a nation abroad toward a rational ecologically healthful way of life within a sustainable economic basis. Developing a moon base the next few years would show a political, economic and scientific competence in judgment that people are increasingly skeptical regarding its existence in U.S. politics.

Nations have periods of historical existence with few or no challenges, while some have many. Some nations may find challenges as forced options, while other nations may have few forced options and many opportunities from which they may choose to actualize few or none.

China with its large population and finite geography has experienced many forced political and economic options the past century. Since the end of the cold war the United States has experienced comparatively few. Arnold Toynbee believed that a nation with challenges (what William James would call forced options) could respond successfully or perish (or perhaps stagnate). Alternatively he found that without challenges—with an easy life, some peoples and nations have simply given away their advantage, lost the will to creatively advanced and otherwise have accomplished less with more than others that produced more with less. The United States has tended to give away its industry abroad, invested abroad, piled up vast debt, responded badly to external terrorist challenges financially speaking and failed to reform its own national interests at all well in the absence of a forced option to do so.

It may be so that intelligent concern can provide the information and stimulation for reform that is needed in the absence of an immediately compelling reason to do so. One may be content drifting, fishing, and drinking nectar with nubile lasses aboard the political love boat ship of state even while the sea is calm. Reason lets us know that the course may be unsustainable for a variety of reasons, and that waiting until the time of a forced option to pursue another course may be too late to successfully respond (a hurricane was over the horizon and the weather radio broke). It is time for the United States to get its house in order.
