Ideas for Expeditious Financial Withdrawal from Afghanistan and Pakistan

The world historian Arnold Toynbee once noted that a foreign culture will resist perceived or real attack on their religion more than any other attack that might otherwise leave them without a will to resist. We know that cultural adaptations follow economic change positively and economic changes follow cultural changes generally negatively or destructively. In seeking to permanently change the economic causes of comparative poverty and Moslem terrorism on the United States from Afghanistan or Pakistan it is improvident to implement policy goals primarily through military means. Military changes radicalize a culture stimulating its culture toward violent catastrophe based transitions rather than stability without asymmetric condign state oppression-state dictatorship of clerics, bureaucrats or families.



The U.S. political policy should be to design highly adaptive steady-state green economic procedures for second and third world countries that can be transfered and implemented at comparatively low cost for the United States. It would be far more cost effective compared to the highly inefficient largely military approach of American occupation relying on building sycophants of the global corporatist economic infrastructure. That costs hundreds of billions per year versus two or three billion development costs for a steady-state economy in Afghanistan or Pakistan. The trouble is of course that the U.S. Government hasn't got a clue about how to develop a steady-state economy in a second or third world country. Instead it employees hundreds of thousands in the war industries with extremely high tech and costs wrecking the opportunities for life development of millions of American citizens.

More efficient, less costly military procedures to arrest foreign terrorist need to be innovated along with readily transferable solid-state economic and energy packages for second and third world countries that need help. A trickle down of further high tech tools of modernization will inevitably follow over time bring an evolution of culture as the people themselves find their new balance.

A Comment on 'The Greatest Day in History'

In reading the book on the last week of World War One by Nicholas Best named 'The Greatest Day in History' (The London Daily Express called Armistice Day-November 11, 1918 that) I am reminded a little of significant historical events such as the recent trophy hunt of the most wanted terrorist in the world Osama Bin Laden and how they effect public perceptions.

History experienced by many different participants in the final week of the war including soldiers, politicians and civilians from sveral sides remind one of the mini-bird-god's eye view of how so many politicians, soldiers, civilians and other thought at one time, diventegratively, wholistically, fractiously and/or phenomenally the great events of the week.

Contemporary historical events in Pakistan and Afghanistan also afforrd disintegrative social powers and individuals asymmetrically asserting political powers and economic power, or subverting political and economic power, or subverting power in a simultaneous nexus of contemporary history.

Pakistan has myriad parties and terrorist organizations devoted to driving India from Kashmir. Its military and intelligence forces have factions and groups not at all on the same sheet of music necessarily-that is, some of the players support individual initiatives with plausble deniability or even complete covert activty that others in government, military and intelligence know nothing about. An effort to impose a uniform, cookie cutter politcal conformity upon the region by the Unted States that would eliminate formation of terrorism is unlikely for several reasons including but not limited to the fact that the U.S.A. seems like such a rich yet stupid nation that can be defeated or reduced in power simply by forcing it to spend on defese against terrorism. It is also questionable that the U.S. administration and establishement financial elites have a monistic view of Central Asian efforts in the new hyper-dimensional 'great game' already a decade old.

The U.S.A. should dedicate itself to the propositions that all people are created equal unto God, and that the U.S. economy should resolutely improve toward full employment and eological health with home security and justice for all Americans. Many hope that the U.S.A. begins a positive cultural contribution of Afghanistan and Pakistan with transferable steady-state economic packages operable in a hostile social environment and discontinues the military approaches as an ineffective means to bring cultural progress. It create a temporal displacement of power that resumes because of an inconclusive resolution of underlying reasons for conflict in Afghanistan as in Europe in 1918. World War Two-the bigger brawl-was the second round of the first world war.

American demands on Afghans and Pakistanis for conformal political organization absent of terrorists to a certain extent disregard the tactical issues of the region that drive Pakistan to support terrorism in Kashmir and Afghanistan as a way to de frappe Indian hegemony, and Pakistan's constitution requires Shria law.

The ongoing idiomatic logic of Washington politicians to prosecute wars of cultural transformation for decades can lead as readily to the destruction of U.S. cultural health as it can repress and radicalize civil life of people abroad that have zero prospect for affording the expensive American way of life to the satisfaction of the financial service and banking sector that led the mortgage default crisis.

President Obama Sends River Flood to Missouri

The Federal Government sapped a levy holding the Mississippi River back out of Missouri to save a town in the President's home state of Illinois from potential flooding. Demographic, utilitarian political choices are exemplified-the greatest good for the greatest politician determines the political decision. If Harry S. Truman were President would he have made the same decision, or would Illinois have been inundated?

For several years environmental scientists have studied the idea of allowing the Mississippi River to flood naturally instead of trying to force it into a levied drainage ditch; not only unrealistic, its bad for fishing and hunting as well. The method used by the government to use the flood control method of flood diversion needs improvement.

Select areas might be designated for high-water flood control overflow and special gates installed to allow flooding from a given level rather than at a zero level as results when a levy is blown. Perhaps only a few feet of water off the top needed to spill over instead of flooding it down to ground zero.

Horizontal river spillways of lower height than other levies along the Mississippi might be built along with a comprehensive overflow spill control design to channel future floods into constructive ends. Farmers and others in these areas should know the potential high water mark and build accordingly. The federal government might compensate farmers for years when their fields are flooded because of high water. The government should also notify farmers adequately in advance of floods so expensive farm equipment can be moved. If homes and other structures must be built in flood overflow areas, they should be built on concrete piers, be able to float or be set on survival islands with rip rap rock around them.

Overall, I would give the Army Corps of Engineers and D grade donated by the Administration for a failure to better plan for Mississippi overflow spill control. We know from the failure of levies in the Katrina disaster that the Congress values spending billions for foreign kinetic military actions over funding the Corp of Engineers to work with ecological analysts to improve the United States.

When obvious flood control overflow is possible-even the Indians of Cohokia of A.D. had the good sense God gave them to build near St. Louis in a location where there pyramids could survive for a millennia without being flooded by water (the human flood of insensitive development overtook them)-the U.S. Government should use and implement new flood control overflow spill control planning with synergetic, beneficial effects on the environment and farm prosperity.

The Constant Source ©2011GaryCGibson (poem)

If the constants of both time and space
were forever to become untrue
changing life's conceptions along with place
what things could last even if we choose?

What things last when all inflate
light speed, learning and dreams of night
such meanings past, the present in sight
those futures we might first contemplate

Three Persons in One
three dimensions and time
God of all morrows
transcending the signs

Of seasons changing and worlds anew
living chemical equilibria
quasars with a redshift of four
fine-tuned processes that shift like a string
up to the cross
reverberations beyond ways and means

Satan has no pain
never a good thing lacking
given everything from God
for the asking
first place near perfection
the created being of scenes
ultimate sadist, desiring consumate wings
power, the perfected yunpie esortsufngred hrough crucifixion though
giving the meek and saved the true constant
that they may know the glory
of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Mission to Planets Orange ©2011GaryCGibson (poem)

With a classification of the worlds

planets that were orange belonged to no other
clusters of angstroms measured in time

visions interpreted in reactive spectral concise renormality
chords of sharp and major frequencies
shifted from infrared to ultraviolet
with biological thought receptors
changing brown to yellow
when paint pots of possibility write

erasing color with terminator night
overcome by surfing quantum packets
interpreted with God given reasoning of right
ever the colors flow
signals, data, of no classification inchoate
lifting event processes to vector then

Osama Bin Laden Killed in Pakistan

In the non-fiction book 'Hunting Bin Laden' author Rob Shyltheis describes the most likely hideout of the designer of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States as a compound in the northeast mountains of Pakistan. The compound is described in detail. The terrorist was killed Sunday. U.S. reliance on fossil fuels continues special vulnerability to global terror on the U.S. economy.

http://www.amazon.com/Hunting-bin-Laden-al-Qaeda-Winning/dp/1602392447

Osama Bin Laden may have lived in Pakistan with the protection of Pakistani intelligence. Evidently Osama Bin Laden was located at a reasonable facsimile of the compound of literary note in Abadabad Pakistan. U.S. intelligence is said to have followed up a lead from August 2010 (did they read the book 'Hunting Bin Laden' published in 2008 or 2009?) that led to an an assault by a few Americans Sunday-reportedly a Navy Seal team The U.S. Government buried Bin Laden's body at sea after sampling the D.N.A. for confirmation. Such a quick disposal will leave room for some to wonder if, as in the absence of Hitler's body for public review, if he really was killed.

It would have been more satisfactory if Os had been captured with a high tech area knock out method and returned for interrogation. When Lee Oswald was killed quickly by Jack Ruby and unavailable for debriefing, it closed off a lot of leads and left many unanswered questions.

A decade has been spent chasing Os Bin Laden at very high opportunity cost to domestic U.S. development enriching a world of global corporate contractors. Os Bin Laden was finally killed as if on schedule as the U.S. is slated to pull out military forces from Iraq this year and supposed to withdraw forces from Afghanistan by 2014 while a new kinetic military action has begun in Libya creating more work and cash transfers to the military-industrial complex.

This is not rocket science or the deployment of more advanced space propulsion systems. More efficeint, lower cost methods of defending U.S. physical and economic property and civil rights need to be developed alternative to large scale conventional deployment of troops to hunt for global guerrilla spook terrorists, their leaders and broadcast cohorts.

Perhaps the government can plan for withdrawal and reduction of taxable military investments abroad until a future time when kinetic military action is required for proximal defense or preemptive defense against continua of attack. Creating steady-state, green, renewable economic infrastructure in second and third world countries is a better investment than dumping military aid and non-renewable, unsustainable neo-classic economic assistance to upper classes abroad.

A Reminder of the Anthropic Principle in Chaotic Inflationary Universe Bubble Sub-Units

One of the more interesting points that Barrow raises in his book ‘The Constants of Nature’ is that conditions of the anthropic principle-the values of constants, in any possible universe or inflated bubble portion of a Universe that has life must be set fine-tuned to support life. Any new theory-of-everything physical cosmology would need to be fined tuned to support human life in a universe. A theoretical physicist might design a good mathematical theory unifying gravity, quarks, strings, the electroweak and strong forces yet if they change constant values such that life would not arise, the theory must be a wrong description of this actual universe.

As a Christian I should stipulate that God would not set human life, evolving, partly assembled or arriving fully assembled, into any Universe that could not support life.

Recent speculation has found evidence against inflation as a fact of cosmological mechanics, or at least problems with it, even so, considering principles that apply to any given universe such as a chaotic inflationary one provide a modal logic of neccessity criteria in support of the anthropic principle's validity.

It may seem obvious-that the physical constants must be such that stars can form, that the size of space and its rate of expansion fit the strength of gravity and so forth at such a pace that life can occur. Even the values of string theory would need to be such that they yield values for all the physical constants of the Universe letting stars and galaxies to form, and live to a certain age, yield elements in the right proportions such as carbon from three helium atoms forming beryllium on the way etc. There are numerous observable values for the Universe that would need to cohere within a new theory that would unify general relativity with quantum mechanical criteria.

It is somewhat useful to compare the half million versions of string theory with U.S. foreign policy. For each possible theory about intervention in the middle east or other Moslem nations that might be regarded as one version of string theory with hypothetical constant values there are still about a half million others with different values-and in foreign policy a localized political theory of everything tends to not have a valid, comparable anthropic principle in it for which democracy, peace, prosperity and a good environment result. Instead, war weapons are transferred, people die and a new corrupt government with unpredictable future conduct in a chaotic political sub-unit bubble develops. Deficit spending on inflationary political sub-unit universes with subtle adverse quantum fluctuations tend to create values adverse to life for the unemployed in the U.S.A.-a trivial concern to Washington D.C. theoretical politicians.

Another interesting point in Barrow’s 2002 book is that in the particular case of life on Earth, even a moon was required to offset the more extreme changes in tides and temperature that would occur from the procession of the Earth’s axis without it. Also Earth has a magnetic field to help keep its atmosphere on. I hadn’t realized that Mars lost its atmosphere because it hasn’t got a magnetic field to deflect particles from the sun that blew it away. Has N.A.S.A. got any plans to design an artificial planetary magnetic field for that magnetically under-privileged neighbor planet?

Obama vs Ryan (again)

The last time Barrack Hussein Obama up against a Ryan he won by default. That was in the Illinois 2004 race for the U.S. Senate. Now U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan is the Republican party's preferred challenger versus Barrack Hussein Obama-its as if they want him to win.

I once had a dog named Clancy. He was a nice puppy that I couldn't take with me on the road so I had to give him away to a nice home. later I read the brillliant Tom Clancy novels, yet I never dreampt that the U.S. public would need make believe political fantasy figures in politics of the absurd to persuade them that their government really cares about anything besides enriching the rich.

Running a Tom Clancy hero figure approxie popular political leader as a kind of Jersey Generals against the Globe Trotters isn't really such a bad idea to assure that corporate policy goes through without blame if Barrack Hussein Obama is giving the Republican party nearly everything the rich want in leadership. And I must say that Paul Ryan has the kind of big hair that a Tom Clancy hero ought to if he is going to work for the U.S. Government (well in the late 80's and early 90's at least-now it might be a moslem afro-american named Jinghis from the south pacific region allegedly if the C.I.A. hasn't cooked his birth certificate).

Somehow the political budget will work out in 2011 with the Republicans making hoo haw interminably about letting the poor cut-n-stitch up their own guts when they need abdominable surgery and to quit shamming in emergency rooms at the expense of hard-working CEOs taking millions of dollars in bonuses from federal bank bail out packages.

I suppose the Congress will in some way trim the poor who are increasingly so much lint like externalities to the suave global corporate capitalist set running the U.S.A. with a fine corporate Harvard product front man.

Prospects for Good Jobs for All Americans in Decline

Pragmatic job quality considerations should apply in regarding the realistic value of the opportunities for employment in the U.S.A. The prosperous not uncommonly have a 'let them eat cake' attitude toward job availability in the U.S.A. instead of anywhere globally returning highest personal profit. Like a sardonic pimp they may say that job quantities are more numerous than people available to fill them. People are real however, while mind and ideas about work for others possible in distant locations outside locality that the prosperous might imagine are easily accessible are not restricted to real, physical actualization.

I looked for a job in Anchorage Alaska for an entire year and could find nothing at all-not even in the seafood processing business. Sleeping in a tent in January I was supposed to go to Dutch Harbor to process fish for a Japanese corporation but the Seattle office kept telling me that they could not give me the itinerary to fly out via email like the had everyone else. Eventually they sent the itinerary to Wrangell Alaska about 700 miles away-completely useless. I spent the rest of the winter sleeping on the ground in a tent in Anchorage walking ten miles to the employment office and library on job searches without luck.

Possible numbers of jobs do not correlate to numbers of jobs that would actually better the situation of the unemployed.

President Bush said;'I have opinions of my own-strong opinions-but I don't always agree with them'. The prosperous may have strong opinions with or without understanding. Sometimes they need to reverse those opinions.

Some jobs at minimum wage in inner cities can realistically be filled only by those that don't need to pay rent. Some jobs can be filled by people living rent free with others, or perhaps by members of a given race living in ghetto housing paying very low rent that would be off-limits to other races.

The costs of travel and relocation to minimum wage jobs can bring immediate front-loaded increases of risk and loss of peripheral quality of life factors. It is also dubious that a family should relocate across the nation to an unfamiliar area to take one minimum wage job.

I personally rode a bike about 30,000 miles in the U.S.A. between 1994 and 2008 looking for regular, quality employment that I never did find. Instead I eventually transitioned into self-employed sporadic house painting and writing while continuing to search for some quality work. Not even 'dirty jobs' unless, one means illegal or immoral positions were commonly available . I have even worked recycling bottles in the Alburquerque plant-and that can be a very dirty job, and am not put off by working with trash of low or high quality. Being alumni of the Army chemical corps at least instructs one in cleaning up messy places.

One can scour the nation for work for years and find not even minimum wage jobs during good times as rare as bottles of ice water in the Mojave desert (a truck actually stopped and gave me several bottle of those when I was resting with my bike on a guard rail in the desert one hot August day). There are numerous factors that can make finding and keeping minimum wage work very difficult, and the reception that workers of different backgrounds, races, ages, education and health get can vary radically.

The U.S. economy today has an increasing element of decreasing money multiplier values from the people with concentrated wealth. In fact the U.S. economic structure today increasingingly exits simple to concentrate wealth amongst materially non-productive classes without passing reaching the hands of the poor. Banking, finance and Wall Street managers typically do not employee Americans directly when they have capital as might a prosperous farmer hire more hands in the 19th century. Instead they invest the capital abroad in foreign production. Wall Street corporate earnings today are at the highest level since 2001 yet real net job losses continue in the U.S.A., and only 57% of working age Americans are employed.

The immaterial, high paid sector charging fees on everything besides breathing creates only jobs in a service sector to itself at low wages. They may create these jobs only as a way to mollify the restive public. The Government administration of economic investment of effort has been lousy since the end of the cold war.

Before the 2008 banking-mortgage-insurance crisis and federal bailout the financial sector took 40% of Wall Street profits. The non-materially productive sector that dominates the U.S. economy is creating a two-class society of those insiders with easy money compounded through investment and financial networks, and everyone else.

As economists have pointed out machines and electronic technology have made it possible for very few people to produce all of the material needs required to sustain life. In fact a few inventive scientists may create an entire industry. Capital investors may need to merely finance a new technology corporations soon bought in to by other insiders to create more product output-probably in a nation abroad with cheapest labor globally. The local economic multiplier values of the dollar changing hands in America by the financial, banking and capital investment sectors can therefore be very low. Only as the non-material working class sector develops a scheme to employ more in service to itself with more luxury and power, medical support and so forth does it pass dollars along to the poor or working class searching for employment. And then it also allows millions of illegal aliens in to the nation to keep labor costs down. Even the housing bubble seems in retrospect to have been a rope-a-dope way to sell home mortgages to foreign interests such as the Chinese communist party.

Comments 'The Constants of Nature' by John D. Barrow etc.

Reading this book published in 2002 that reviews the scientific quest in physics to determine what the constants of nature and the values are is a good way to get a little farther on with cosmological comprehension. This book may satisfy that existential doubt about the meaning of the fine structure constant .

In the ongoing development of physical investigations of the Universe one of the fundamental points of investigation and comparative tools for discovery is the value of things such as gravitational force, electron charge, the Planck length, speed of light and regarded as constants. These probably are constants across the Universe and never change in value over time, or maybe not? The book by Barrow is an interesting way to view the Universe amidst the profusion of new theories regarding its construction including string and membrane theory.

This sort of book tends to stimulate the appearance of ideas for the reader about the materials of the Universe we live in. That's not altogether surprising since the book mentions the Holderness number's estimate of 10 to the 70 trillionth power of neuron connections in the brain for ideas (electrical circuits). Everyone should be able to think reasonably well, maybe full employment and a healthy environment will politically arise with so much human thinking capacity available.

Like one's personal computer, I suppose that if one just uses mind for quality creative text there is lots of space-even more than one could use in a lifetime, yet if one uses it to store lots of videos and music it gets filled up pretty quickly locking out any room for creativity.

God may have created the Universe in a workshop in six days of something like a movie maker sweating 24 hours a day with lots of coffee splicing, remixing, adding special effects, intro text, voiceovers etc. before releasing the finished product. Unlike us humans, He always completes what He starts with excellent results.

With a well deserved rest on the seventh day God too could watch the Universe play out through its phases- even where man gets to name the animals before he exterminates most of them. With careful planning it would have been possible to make the Universe have liberty and free will in it as multiple choice thought possibilities too numerous to use for mankind in any possible circumstance they might encounter.

Barrow of course has nothing to say about that-just as well-he elaborates instead what many of the great physicists, astronomers and other scientists of history have thought up to discover what the nature of physical constants are and how they relate to the Universe and to life. This book is quite a good read. He describes the validity of the anthropic principle in set theoretic universes such as that of a chaotic inflationary universe. It should be valid in bubble membrane universes as well.

It may me wonder more about the unsaid things that gravity theorists haven't said publicly about black holes and the singularity before the big bang.

Does it really seem reasonable that quantum uncertainty and breaking up of bound pairs of particles should happen at an alleged event horizon around a black hole?

I would guess that Stephen Hawking envisioned the future era wherein all of the mass of the Universe concentrated in black holes with nothing outside. Obviously if quantum indeterminacy and quantum effects can violate the speed of light or the speed of gravity (also the same as the speed of light) then the underlying subversion of gravity warping space-time could occur given enough time letting virtual particle leakage empty the black hole. Of course, it would be necessary that space-time continued to exist beyond the event horizon of the black hole if quantum uncertainty and superposition is to have a place for particles to leak to. That future condition seems unknown at lest to us non-physicists for the time being. What the theoretical physicsts know about space-time (other than a few loop quantum gravity specialists) on that topic isn't plain.

What relation would mass inside the event horizon have to mass outside? The mass inside has gone all the way to the center and a condition of complete unity as a composite singularity of energy-mass. At the event horizon the only things taken would be from outside and broken up bound particles would be doomed to drift in anyway.

How much is the singular energy state of a black hole like that of the singularity before the start of the Universe? Should we believe it leaked out energy through quantum entanglement before the big bang for a few zillion years then let the rest go in a quick release of space-time? If it did allow quantum uncertainty to occur outside its singular, uniform energy condensed state,where was that if space-time did not yet exist. Oh yes, an infinity of other universes just outside our singularity having no effect at all on the quiet, patient bit of infinitely concentrated energy just waiting to explode.

Stephen Hawking's radiation from a black hole that could over trillions to a very large power of years make a black hole spill its guts of particles to out beyond the event horizon is a brilliant stimulation for creative thought on the nature of what lay within that ponderable gravitational enigma in may ways bearing a resemblance to this Universe. It isn't impossible that instead of recycling the Universe as a process theoretically as one might explain a recurrent supply side economic system that functions forever like a perpetual motion machine, the present Universe may be a one-way event process and black holes send matter on to an uncertain elsewhere as vast, wild scuppers to tax-free havens far abroad. Who knows what God could have in mind for mankind?

If gravity is conveyed by a particle or wave at the speed of light does it also have possibilities for quantum uncertainty and infinite worldlines of which some are selected? Are the selections for effect made because gravity is a concatenated effect of entangled quantum content of mass locally?

Quantum super-positioning and other effects or actions of quantum uncertainty (of which I know little) could be the force driving the expansion of space. If select aspects of quantum particle-wave behavior are not subject to gravitational effect they could incrementally drive apart mass spacing with a chaotic expansion something like that of a gas with heat added. Gravity acting upon large accretions of mass at steady state levels, if it is a phenomena of local quantum entanglement, might have slowed the expansion effects of quantum particle-waves upon space during the era of coalescence and formation of stars and galaxies until the maximum potential for mass quantum entanglement was reached whereafter (approximately 7 billion years after Time of the universe post singularity) super-positioning and quantum uncertainty spacing of distance resumed. It is interesting that quantum uncertainty as an action of energy and interval is coexistent with a quantum unit of time wherein with a black hole and maximum concentration of mass and minimization of quantum effects time is virtually eliminated.

One would think that if space was finite quantitatively and implicitly associated with energy/mass at a singularity that its potential to expand would be finite. Logically constants would represent the function of recurrent processes until they change. The values of processes stable and in transition are possibly what the questions about physical constants (such as the speed of light) lend utility for in constructing theoretical models of the state of the Universe(1).
