Expansion of Universe Accelleration an Illusion?

The 1998 discovery based on the rate of recession of distant quasars and/or supernova that the Universe may have begun accellerating its expansion about 5 billion years ago is generally accepted by physicists-at least until this recent theory by Christos Tsagas.

http://www.space.com/13094-accelerating-universe-dark-energy-illusion.html

The space.com article is quite informative. After Allan Guth developed the inflation theory of universal expansion the idea that space had not only originated in a Lamaitre like big bang but also had an expansion allowed an updated sketching in of the overall shape and rate of change of space-time.

The universe at 10 to the minus 43 second of its history was hot and dense in the theory, then at 10 to the minus 35th second it hyper-inflated faster than the speed of light. Neither light or gravity actually existed then, and so the universe expanded in a small fraction of a second to the size of a grapefruit (probably a Florida rather than a California grapefruit) and slowed to resume its normal sub-lght speed expansion for billions of years.

What was thought to drive the first inflation was a phase change to a lower more stable energy level of vacuum energy. That consolidation through off radiation and maybe space increased simultaneously. That vacuum energy is what remains in the universe today possibly as the cosmological constant or Lambda that was thought to be expanding it again towards dissipation. Now it is conjectured the apparent expansion of the universe could be just an illusion made because different regions of space may have different relative velocities or shapes in comparison to other regions of the universe.

If the cosmological constant is not real, and if the universe is not increasing its rate of expansion but is instead sort of just hanging on the critical edge between expanind and collapsing toward a big crunch, then some of these other theories about inflation may lose some coinciding support.

I am not sure that it matters too much right now expecpt perhaps to professisonal physicists since several basic ideas about space, mass and energy are also rather unknown. Most of the physical theories describing mass and energy really haven't a good definition of what space is for itself. Quantum mechanics seems to be more a description of the phenomenal appearance of the observed behavior of sub-atomic particles rather than a philosophy of what the nature of the quantum reality is in-itself.

Hopefully theorists will wrap up these interesting questions and produce solid answers before time runs out in the Universe or in the chaotic inflationary cascade of universes that may or may not have arisen from the inexplicable donation of a vacuum energy with a preferred direction.

Health Insurance Costs Per Family Rise $15,000

That 9% increase per year for health insurance for a family as reported by the N.Y. Times seems expensive. Maybe it is in part a function of counting homosexuals as married couples in N.Y. state.

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/28/business/health-insurance-costs-rise-sharply-this-year-study-shows.html?partner=rss&emc=rss

My three hernias cost $13,000 to repair last year and I paid for part of it bartering real estate that I planned to build a cabin on. The state of Alaska provides free health insurance to live in homosexual playthings of state of Alaska employees of course, yet being straight I wasn't eligible.

Another thing that is implicitly discriminatory is the city of Anchorage giving a real estate tax discount to homosexual couples in the city while taxing single cabin builders a higher tax rate. Maybe a lower tax for a couple producing children is fair, yet for homos it seems flam. Now, single builders must pay higher taxes on their land than homosexual government workers enjoying housing built by whomever (illegal aliens?).

The Federal homosexual agenda during the Obama administration has so far been one of its major doings. The other two political achievements of substance was the one-party forcing through of Obamacare that has done nothing to bring free medical care to the nation's poor and the execution of Osama Bin Laden followed by a quick flushing of the weighted body deep into the Arabian Sea. It seemed that the late terrorist could have been sent alive to Gitmo for YouTube videos for a few years at the least without benefit of the Grecian Formula.



The homosexual special interest lobby has claimed to be like unto Negroes segregated and that free federal tax dollars for their medical care is like liberation from slavery. They have presented Matthew Shepard like crimes as typical of the violence to their class that can corrected only by legalizing homosexual marriages, corrupting thousands of years of cultural tradition, biological sanity and the interests of the poor. Special interests hate crimes laws have been passed along with legislation to redistribute power to the non-poor special interest group of homosexuals. The rich mirthfully enjoy the new degradation of the nation's poor as being queer is the new upwardly mobil path to the lap of luxury in the Democratic Party.

Few Americans wish to oppress the queer. Fruitcakes in the government and military have a place. The right of Americans to be as they are is sacrosanct. Its just that special interest fruitcakes may oppress the poor or the rights of others unwilling to sign off on their way of life. It is important that fruitcake politics is not regarded as a special interest that cannot have political opposition. A Gay Corps of military and executive fruitcakes may be the way of the future. Even Adolph Hitler found his homosexual dominant S.A. storm troopers helpful in getting his NAZI party elevated to being the most powerful in Germany.

The elitist homosexual platform may be rightly criticized by political opponents and should be if democracy is to keep even a semblance of existence in the U.S.A. To oppose homosexual marriage for its mockish takeover of heterosexualk marriage is not an attack on the rights of queer life styles. One may call democrats donkeys, republicans elephants and queers fruitcakes without making personal attacks upon individuals. Personal attacks on any individual is an attack on all individuals, yet repressing political attacks on groups and special interest public organizations is to repress political life and liberty in the U.S.A.

Neither should many wish to provide special interest groups civil rights in conflict with reason, truth, justice or the American way. Homos may have a need for laws providing for non-discrimination in work or housing, yet all citizens have an equal right for security from violent crime and economic terrorism. All citizens require adequate housing and medical services; special interest groups that are not poor should get no priority from government intervention-they can afford to pay for their own medical insurance and should.

Free medical benefits to federal employee's significant homosexual others (none for the insignificant ones possibly) is a policy of redistributing wealth to a special interest group that is not primarily poor. Diverting federal health dollars to the middle and upper class homosexuals does nothing at all in the interest of creating free health care for the poor who actually cannot afford medical care. The nation's health bill goes up as tax dollars go to middle class homosexuals instead of poor working age Americans (the health care for the retired should be reformed and improved).

The onslaught of homosexual health and corruption of marriage acts promulgated during the Obama administration by elite courts and corrupted legislatures is the leadership of a decadent society and of weird middle and upper classes seeking to victimize and exploit the poor in the U.S.A. and abroad for their financial gain. That is a worrisome and unAmerican trend.

The practical value of creating and expanded V.A. hospital system to provide free health care for poor Americans as need would remove the constellation of ad hoc emergency room medical costs that are tacked on to the ambient costs for health care the middle and upper class pay for. It also would provide a stream of patients for the Veteran's health are system in times of no war, so no wars would be needed to provide patients to keep the system employees busy.

It would require a kind of integrity in government not existing today to create a free national health care service for the nation's poor citizens and to provide adequate Mexican border security as well. The middle class and rich instead create Rube Goldberg health care machines with perennial add ons that redistribute wealth to the middle class and rich with the Special Interest Group of Homosexuals-not a group representing the interests of the poor-displacing the poor in the Democratic Party as power brokers. Poor Democrats have just become broke brokers without political power.

One might anticipate that the lessons of history applied here are that a decadent U.S. leadership overly investing in China will successfully sell out the people of the U.S.A. that some ort of Stalinist-Hitler purging-night of the long knives will develop in a few decades to try too correct the drift. It might be as unsuccessful as the coup against Boric Yeltsin by the Communist leadership in 1992(?) and a variety of other scenarios could develop alternatively of course. At least the Obama administration has created much material for speculate adventure-thriller fiction writing.

Poetry of Cosmological Phenomenality: The Infinite Compaction of Mass

The August 2011 issue of Scientific American has a good article summarizing contemporary multiverse theory by a cosmologist; George Ellis. So far as I know one of the essential motivations for multiverse theory is the cosmic inflation theory of Allan Guth. A period of rapid inflation of space time energy for a fraction of a second may have created an expanding Universe ‘bubble’. It was further speculated that an infinite number of such inflationary bubbles might arise from a primordial void energy or field. Mathematical theorists seem to like the concept of extrapolating the existence of an infinite number of universe-bubbles inspired by the way our present one looks and seems to have formed in the past. Avoided is the need for invention of a unique causal order explanation, of a description of what the void is itself or where it began. Also violate apparently are conservation of energy laws.

If a finite quantity of energy existed in the beginning it could not increase infinitely. If an infinite amount of mass and energy existed in the beginning its conversion through phase changes into various altered states over time seems improbably given an eternal existence.

Cosmologists speculate virtual particles emerge from quantum uncertainty as an extrusion from an expanding space-field, and that all mass is also a clump of ‘standing waves’ above the all-possible waveforms background of space-time. Mass-energy and space-time including the lambda force (cosmological constant) are regarded as local versions of an undefined vast trans-universal field phenomenon that let bubble multiverse formations flow like zillions of bubbles in a crème de menthe inter-universal void. It seems there are some philosophical, logical and poetic points to consider on this topic. I will therefore write a little on the not worthless topic of singularities and black holes…

The surface appearance of space-time for experience is a pond with clouds, rain showers and time moving like ripples with shadows of mountains and forests. Looking beyond the world to what lies beyond, or below if local directions through a given volume of protons and photons in space warmed above crystalline freezing phase has actualized down in a gravitational field of relations-even looking through if one doesn’t lose sight of what one was looking at before getting that transcending vision of beyond-maybe including the past or future statuses of the state of being and things, it is possible to imagine the universe as it appears as a singularity long ago or far ahead when it is or was just a concentrated dot unspoken.

Given any finite mass A or B etc.
Compacted infinitely under Gravity
Different quantities of mass A or B
Should transform into masses of equal infinite density and infinitely reduced area.

Cantor’s transinfinite series of order in infinite series allows for some series to be Eleatic and others non-Eleatic. Non-Eleatic series of numbers permit quantitative/quantitative increases of scale while Eleatic number series get bogged down infinitesimally.

Given a universe with D number of dimensions of space-time compacted infinitely, in the process of infinite reduction under Gravity or some other implicit field the wavelengths of all space-time mass and energy are reduced or abbreviated until no structures exist that are different than the initial field. That includes quantum phenomena until all uncertainty no longer exists at which time the incompleteness criteria of Gödel emerges to bring the infinitely reduced infinite mass of space-time into a relationship with something unknown and unknowable.

Infinite reduction of Universe A or B, or of Universes A through Z along with their intrinsic, comparatively relativistic, non-transinfinite space-time presents more than nothing or non-being anti-space. It presents something very strange, indeed imponderably so.

If any human mind, network of minds or even computer were to be capable of controlling most physical mechanics of a Universe A and formulate it within given criteria perhaps adapted from memory bank recollection of the appearance of a natural universe, it would mismanage space-time from within. It would destroy itself in being unable to step outside itself as an exemplary reduction of Gödel’s incompleteness theorem and morph its own odd configurations of mass-energy without meaning against a backdrop of the non-existing and quite absurd non-space without. It would fail to appreciate the poetry of the matter.

All numbers with a decimal point may be infinitely increased to the right or left of the point, and each change presents a new number. Any number is only a relative value within a field describing position, and because of the principle of identity each number bears the simultaneously value of one of its kind.

Trans-infinite infinities are those with quantitative characteristics permitting a continuum of value phase shifts of a field to occur surpassing the Eleatic extension of an infinite series of numbers along one axis with zero progress in any other. That is probably why they are liked.

An infinite extension of a particular number becomes a different number value although small, with each incremental change fractionally. Each number and each new number for field equations represent qualitative, relativistic values that may transcend special, spatio-temporal forces and produce phenomenal, temporal infinities in a process of reduction towards singularity under gravity or some prevailing force of reduction.

There is no certainty that under the asymptotic freedom of a near singularity that gravity would exist at all. If it fails to continue then repulsive forces might reverse the reduction. If a new force for reduction replaces gravity when all particle-wave quantum phenomena are extinguished to continue the reduction toward an infinite regress the state of absurdity may arise wherein space-time that has also been for practical purposes annihilated experience the presence of a very powerful concentrate dot stabilized at any given stage.

The monistic ultra-quantum dot ‘universe’ is a singularity for being stable rather than for continuing its infinite reduction as one-wherein it would be simple a One in event-process of change. It is notable that One Universe is a singularity in large or small size in that it is all that exists. When in a much reduced form its constitution internally varies though nothing exists without during its singular existence.

If non-space is comprised of an infinite number of singularities that may arise, that too presents something of an absurdity to contemplate, for the appearance of finite mass, yet stabilized singularities amidst non-being seems extraordinary.

An infinite extension process reducing mass and energy/universe would not produce any net increase in the overall power of the original mass, nor obviously decrease it.

Infinities resulting from describing a field that results in a singularity in space-time seem to be a consequence of a kind of inversion of Gödel’s incompleteness theorem wherein the math used to develop the theory of the singularity must be itself destroyed.

An infinite number of potential mathematical geometrical descriptions of Cantor’s trans-infinite sort might be mapped onto an infinitely reduced surface topology from within a singularity-as-universe in minimal state-yet it would not mean that the singularity itself would infinitely continue to reduce in size as time-itself was measured from within. The singularity as mass in-itself stabilizes when its dynamic energy for concentrating to minimal state has been spent, when its ability to change or redistribute energy no longer exists, and when it has become something else not meaningfully described by the artifact of field equations that existed before.

Thus the poetry of the quantum dot without internal structure. One stable form without space-time set against a magnificent view property of a vast unknown region of other quantum dots without much structure, chapter to verse just yet, however a location with much potential for development.

Rickie and Lucy on the Republican Presidential Primary Trail

Amongst likely Republican voters Rick Perry seems to have a 28 to 20 % lead over the better qualified candidate Mitt Romney. It may be Karl Rove’s political genius that initially groomed the cotton farmer for higher political office, yet Rove in the Bush political school of Presidential politics has also reckoned on the fundamentalist vote as a factor of ‘Lucy’ loyalists always devoted to their strong man Rickie in turn devoted to drilling oil, defending oil depletion allowances and securing new supply.

Rick Perry notably made his appearance at a Texas fundamentalist convention this year. Only Franklin Graham might make a better candidate. We can hardly wait.

It is important not to underemphasize the comparative ineffectiveness of both major political parties these days in managing Americas economic and foreign affairs. I recently read a book by the Iranian scholar Hooman Majd on Iranian culture and recent history. He described President Amadinijab’s visit in 2007(?) to speak at the U.N. at which the U.S. delegation walked out. This week, President Amadinijab returned to speak at the U.N. and the Hillary Clinton led delegation walked out. U.S. taxpayers pay these diplomats to listen to all that political verbiage and they just walk out and go for pizza and beer. Since the Iranians released the two American hikers it had locked up for espionage just before the U.N. mission Iran had already spent about the only coins it had for improving relations-did we ever consider returning a little courtesy to the Iranians?

The fact that there is little difference between Bush II and Obama-Clinton diplomacy isn’t surprising. Like attention deficit disorder children they must leave off from intellectual affairs and go drill and oil well. Like the dysfunctional partisan congress at loggerheads on the budget perennially the Clinton U.N. team just walks out and finds it easier to learn nothing and send the bombers. Blasting things all to hell is better than understanding why Amadinijab wears cheap suits made in Tehran’s poorer districts and no tie, or how Iranian Shia historically have a martyr complex, have sought populism a couple of hundred years and have struggled through difficult historical experiences to emerge with a present neo-populist clerical leadership class and a nation with little trust in powerful foreign concerns for good reason. Hopefully Mitt Romney could out desert and puritan the Iranians and yet reinforce Israel at the same time. Yet wait a minute, I hear the call of the loon this morning on the distant lake.

Mitt Romney is far more electable in the general election than is Governor Rickie the polls say. Mitt Romney is also the better candidate. The Lucy factor however is quite real however, and a real possibility exists that The Lucy factor will assure the election of another lemon in the succession of lemons following the Reagan administration. Getting over the Mormon religion of Romney enough to let a separation of church and state allow the other Native American religion to not disqualify an otherwise fine candidate will be difficult; Lucy likes her man.

Gov. Rick Perry can play the ‘I hate Washington’ card with Lucy. Lucy is entranced by scorn for her potential rivals…

Washington D.C. wastes money on relief for the poor, federal building construction, civil rights enforcement, environmental protection and education. Rickie would cut all that and just invest billions in foreign war outlays to defense contractors. Cutting through the yellow tape Rickie will get rid of the minimum wage and wilderness transforming the U.S. ecosphere into a West Texas image of desolation.

Democratic Party Moves toRedistribute Wealth to the Upper Class

The ongoing large scale changes in the U.S. economy seem more bad that good overall. Wealth is being concentrated and the number of the nation's poor now has reached about 50 million. Basically both major parties have changed to advocate for the rich instead of the poor with the Democrats throwing bones to the middle class occassionally.

Until President Reagan and following President Hoover the U.S.A. had a series of quality presidents that continuously maintained a recycling of wealth from the rich to the poor through tax policy. Today tax policy alone if corrected to a 70% rate for the rich could not correct America's outsourcing, foreign investment and policy of neglect of innovation. Not even stimulating dumb highway infrastructure contractors is much of an ongoing economic cas multiplier. Stimulating real renewable energy and other small business start ups would be better.

Now the nation compared to the Roman Empire's Antonine emperors in a series of quality rulers has run a Lemon series of presidents outsourcing the nation's wealth and tech infrastructure, gaying up the military to create a new opportunity for levering the destruction of individual civil liberties and economic well being, and supporting concentration of wealth, comparative decline of U.S. economic competetitity etc. The well known facts of politics since the Reagan administration are too obvious to belabor here.

The Democratic party has morphed into a support service-an ad hoc employer owned sweetheart union, to support the domination of wealthy corproate America heavily invested abroad. During the 20th century until the Reagan administration mostly white poor Americans fought for economic fairness against the rich who exploited them. They fought to get a fair portion of the AMerican pie though concentrated wealth coulod outbid them at every turn. The moderately egalitarian income distribution was a phenomena in human history.

Near the end of the cold war President Regan slashed taxes on the rich and plundered America's natural resources in order to stimulate the economy. He also exploited deep deficit spending to increase business and expanded the military significantly without getting into expensive foreign wars. His term objectives economically were perhaps fullfilled yet his methods were disposable-or should have been. Instead following administrations have continued deficit spending, exploiting natural resources, keeping a low tax rate on the rich and even engaging in protracted foreign wars. During Wall Street crashes the government has bailed out the banks and investment firms. U.S. loans at near zero interest to Wall Street banks that are little better than government guaranteed gambling houses skimming the public like the owners of a large casino have enabled trillions of dollars of potential U.S. investment to be diverted to China and elsewhere.

The Democratic party transitioning to a gay advocacy group and a party of activist women have implicitly conflicted with the interests of all the poor. Though homosexual militancy may seem liberating to some, homosexuals in the United STates are not more poor than any other general section of the U.S. public. There are numbers of prosperous homosexuals, as there are millions of prosperous women in the United States. When the Democratic Party transformed itself into a party of women and homosexuals it moved away from effective representation of the poor. In fact for many years poverty seems to have been a dirty word in the Democratic party; poor relations or aquaintances the President in getting support from one of the richest women in America-oprah Winfree, and getting new campaign support from one of the richest billionaires-Warren Buffet.

If Harvard Law School has trained its right leaders to transform the Democratic party into willing tools of the rich (were Barrack Obama and Gary Locke in the same class?) as Oxford's equivelent of Rhode's Scholar selections to advance Anglo interests, if a Democratic President becomes the leading advocate for tax cuts for the rich and signs an extension of the Bush II tax cuts in to law (December 2010) then what hope is there for reversing the Wall Street and the rich above all things policy in the White House that has diverted America's development and ecospheric recovery until some future time in case the nation is still around?

The President has cancelled U.S. leadership on lunar colony development and retired from the space development field that should create bold new ideas in Earth-moon transportation infrastructure at low cost. The President while liberating black repression and the appearance of racial exclusion fostered during the Bush II administration by undercurrents of wise guy add ons, is something like a too obliging servant of the interests of a class that considers it war to mention tax increases on the rich. The wealthy in the United States seem to believe they have some perennial right to enjoy unchallenged domination of the U.S. economy and that the people who are poor and even of a middle class do not have implicit interests in enjoying debt free prosperity in a secure and healthy ecosphere.

The poor have an implicit right to war upon the rich, if that means political expressions in advocacy of a more fair, higher tax rate. The Republican Party tends to drag out the war term as a kind of implicit threat that they might have to bitch slap down with the power of their military industrial complex, economic sanctions, clever terror or miscillaneous perfidy. They should have a kinder, gentler attitude toward higher taxes that should be used to continually improve the quality of life for all in the United States, the quality of the environment, biodiversity and national security.

Low Federal Reserve Lending Rate-Effects?

The very low commerical lending rates of the Federal reserve since the Wall Street and banking debecle of 2008 followed by poor domestic economic performance certainly can make one wonder about the policy. I am not an economist-these are just ideas that have arisen in regard to the phenomena of market and U.S. economic news.

http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/data.htm

If banks can borrow vast quantities of money and invest in China where the g.d.p. is still fgood enough, something like 11% annually, then the banks and financial sector can make a lot of money, the Chinese economy rescieve continuing U.S. Government stimulus helping to build a better, more competetive economy versus the U.S. economy, and Americans can remain unemployed.

Well, if banks and Wall Street can make profits with computer trading taking on debt obligation a hundred or more times their assets, and if the U.S. Government will bail them out when their gambles on the market occassional fail, how can that deal be beat? Sometime a reform of the new age of electronic gaming of the market and finance may be made to restore material production to its basic value, yet probably not in the lifetime of a generation being skimmed by the best quants and bureaucrats investing abroad ever.

Philosophy; Universes, Pointillism and Prejudice

In some respects much of contemporary philosophy like that of science coheres in a descriptive reduction of an unknown universe-monism, into pointillism of pieces. Even the Greek philosopher Democritus and the Atomists took such a course.

Like the pointillist method of construction in art, representation of the universe and its composition may be described through representational quanta and their interaction with a quantum mechanical description. Not only quarks, strings, probability wave packets and planets are categorized within a pointillism painting a universe, so are words, neuroscience, ideas and abstract structures describing the strength of forces and units with the phenomenal experience of being. Universes for themselves might be more pointillist units with stronger boundary compilations than the units within, except for the most fundamental units that logically might be irreducible and transcendent through higher aggregations, unless the basic quanta too are irreducibly coherent in a basic monist field that provides to human experience the appearance of pluralism.

Categorical prejudices of structure may inertially generate more constructions of a similar nature. Phenomenally though the evolution of recurrent forms may be common until insight or adequate stimulus changes an established paradigm. Thoughts on the creation of the Universe as a field or as a pointillist concatenation of quanta generated by God are a matter of faith and revealed data rather than an observed paradigm of pointillist patterns in the void.

A Decade of War & Increasing U.S. Poverty

A decade of wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and globally against 'terror' 2001-2011 have yet to end. The Muslim religious ideology of jihad is more than 1400 years old and if engaged directly as a target for itself is an improbable victim of a homosexually insinuated military and secularist ethic in-itself simultaneously seeking to expand markets and acquire access to natural resources for global corporations.

Better, more nuanced ways to help internationally challenged societies to transformatively adapt to peaceful co-existent states with people of other faiths ought to be adumbrated by those occupying the State offices of Foggy Bottom, the White House and Congress. Afghanistan needs better educators and ecospherically pragmatic economic philosophers in the mix of imported richly connected experts offering opinions from abroad.

One may wonder if it is comparatively right morally to let 50 million Americans live without free medical coverage in poverty while spending trillions to help Muslim women advance to own Apple tablets or to live hijab free lives. It seems they are for-themselves more concerned about job and earnings equality rather than wearing face-covering costumes booked or unbooked by religious law enforcement or displaying outlines of bosoms in public.

Afghan women may be as concerned as Afghan men about Chinese mining of Afghan natural resources. If the United States is to have democracy respond to the interests of the citizens it should prioritize policy solving its own national inequity and evils; freeing itself from extremist Republican opinions of neo-libertarianism for the advantage of corporations heavily benefiting from public spending and Democratic extremists of neo-socialism and state sponsored sodomy-friendly promulgation of laws.

Moderate democratic pragmatism should take neither the extremist Spartan way of state socialist fascism nor the way of Athenian democracy with a helot like underclass of non-citizens supporting the pampered life of the citizens. Political ideas and cultural history cannot be comfortably encapsulated within diminished capacity amnesiatic texting facebook vocabularies. A loss of the ability to construct new political tools from the architecture of past governance to better cultural prospects occurs when history is lost and language reduced to byte size politically correct young adult size portions.

A pragmatic democracy assures that all citizens have meaningful employment and security in possessions and health in order that continuity allows them to build their intellectual capital and skills without the time gaps and chaos of poverty or even homelessness compelling loss of tools and housing to pay for medical treatment or food. The average level of work skill and knowledge cannot advance too far beyond off the street entry level for o.j.t. when citizens are forced to experience significant material discontinuity in their personal basic economic lives.

Without practical, democratic political goals for the nation developing workable guidelines regarding national and international policy and procedures is improbable. An effort to implement ineffective theories of nation building on Iraq and Afghanistan has generated two different temporal outcomes. The sectarian differences in those nations present different challenges in an effort to impose a federalist government upon them that would be stable and not experience terrorism or a need for continuing U.S. military or financial support.

An Afro-American libertarianism of existential tolerance of all things phenomenally that severs the bonds of responsible governance may be as harmful to national interests as it abandons real economic power to concentrated as activism in support of state authoritarianism. It is difficult to find much policy change in President Obama's Afghan policy as he has rolled over the Bush II approach through the first three years of his term. Perhaps he is trying to show that a black President need not be radical, but will kick back the Republican status quo on Wall Street and globalist hegemony.

There is little question that the U.S. military can impose a temporal order at significant cost upon a second or third world country if it must and suppress temporarily expressions of political terrorism. The question of an American ability to bring a lasting peace upon Iraq or Afghanistan civilly when each nation has implicit sectarian strife ordinarily resolved by authoritarian domination is questionable. In Korea and in Vietnam the U.S.A. wasn't able to bring its own vision for the region into being. It is entirely possible that following a U.S. withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan that both nations may return to oil money funded terrorism and political adjustments bringing one sect into power.

With freedom and some form of parliamentary Islamic law both nations may allow Moslem international terrorist planners traditional refuge. At any rate the United States may choose to tranch civil rights and liberty as a sort of updated yet politically acceptable course to let the Shia of Afghanistan survive in a N.W. half of a confederated Afghan State with only minimal U.S. military and economic assistance. Iraq presets a more challenging issue as the United States leadership has been opposed to the Islamic socialism of the kind in Iran that the Shia of Iraq probably would be disposed to favor wherein the people own the oil of the nation themselves. Without a universal economic resource tie it is challenging to find real reasons for people to discern an advantage in forming political alliance.

If the United States is an example, wealth is being concentrated and work outsourced while illegal immigrant workers replace the natural citizen work negotiating and personnel parameters to the advantage of the upper class third of the populous. The dynamical juxtaposition of straw man arguments between biconditional alternators of libertarian, oligharchy dominant corporatism and communist authoritarianism obscure the middle, rational concerns of a national democracy to benefit its people and overall existential standing ecospherically and economically.

Fracking Gas Fields and National Aquifers

Fracking Gas Fields and National Aquifers

One might believe that a federal investigation of the effect on fracking natural gas fields and chemicals used in the process should be made to learn the effects such fracturing of rock and release of natural gas as well as chemicals used in the process may have upon U.S. underground aquifers in the future.

Some natural gas fields are vast. I believe one extends from the Texas panhandle the Nebraska and beyond. Recovering remaining gas with new field fracking techniques are motivated by profit and somewhat unconcerned about present or long range deleterious contaminating impact upon drinking and irrigation water supply quality from underground. Water is more important the natural gas for human survival.

http://www.ombwatch.org/node/10353

It may be reasonably said that ‘technology corrupts, and absolutely technology corrupts absolutely’. Without being Luddites, and recognizing the good and comfortable things technology brings to human society, we may also recognize that the capacity for evil and treachery amplified with technology evolves to a biological evolution eradicating social fact while simultaneously making any biological life beside those in most absolute power phenomenological rather than necessary. Technology makes warriors and covert killers of civilians and militaries phenomenological economic expressions of deeper technological powers. The infusion of fracking chemicals into the nation’s pure unpolluted underground aquifers is a deep threat to cheap healthy water availability.

The Federal government should, if it hasn’t already, make a comprehensive study of the overlapping of aquifers with gas fields as well as the future migration of underground water, gas or fracking chemicals. Of course all chemicals injected into underground gas fields should be publicly disclosed. No private interest should have any right to significantly alter the integrity of any portion of public land or air without complete disclosure to the public of the quantitative and qualitative data. Destruction of the natural integrity and quality of even the underground can have lasting deleterious consequences to national interest-even to the interests of future users of the minerals and potential of the underground. If fracking chemicals contact future geothermal drilling processes or instances, one might wonder f the vaporized drilling chemicals used in prior fracking processes would still have an effect, if they would be explosive or toxic and so forth released into the world above heated and vaporized.

On 'The Roosevelt Presence' by Patrick Maney

Reading this biography published in 1992 on the charismatic president who brought America out of the depression, allowed it to slip into recession perhaps when capitalists went on an informal strike in protest of Roosevelt’s policies of liberalization, is to revisit one of the most trying and formative times in U.S. history and of the three term leader who guided the nation through it with his irrepressible optimism and innovative adaptability. I recommend this fine book for general reading.

F.D.R. destroyed isolationism as a political force during W.W. II with extraordinary leverage including smears, F.B.I. harassment and putting out the idea that isolationists were Nazi symps-an inherently false idea later balanced by the smears on Roosevelt’s New Deal populist liberalism as commie symps. Maney points out that some of Richard Nixon’s methods of attacking political opponents might have been inspired by the executive privilege methodologies of F.D.R. Today, globalists have run amok with U.S. economic power and isolationism is a dirty word making rational nationalism and ecospheric integrity, full employment and national focus on economic innovation difficult to sell to voters through bought and paid for politicians in the pockets of global corporatists.

President Roosevelt had several insights enabling the U.S.A. to move toward good historical footings to build upon, yet he did not bring all to become reality. Political positioning and uncertainties negated several initiatives. In 1944 Roosevelt perceived that European colonialism was dying and he worked-not hard enough though, to bring France to give up Indochina (Vietnam) and Britain to provide independence to India. Neither initiative worked of course and the tragedy of the Vietnam conflict was not avoided.

President Roosevelt never was awarded a Nobel prize, yet in some respects he earned one no less than President Obama. President Obama has encouraged revolutions and regime changes in North Africa and Syria; President Roosevelt sent Dwight Eisenhower and the Army to evict General Rommel and the Afrika Korps from the same region-people known to oppose upward mobility for the poor using harsh, repressive means. President Obama has allowed extraordinary rendition and kept offshore Interrogation facilities open at Guantanamo Bay and possibly elsewhere while continuing President Bush II’s war effort in Afghanistan and helped the Chinese Communist to extract Afghan copper from a large, new mine. President Roosevelt did not have such close relationships with Chinese Communists yet he did help China to develop peace and prosperity by encouraging the Japanese Imperial Army to exit Manchuria etc.

With America’s present high unemployment rate and borderline recovery from recession and stock market crash Roosevelt’s management of the nation between 1932 and 1945 is page-turning reading. One discovers so many similarities in the ways of thinking-even economically between the players of that day in politic and economics with those of contemporary America.

The unemployed at least may be interested in the phenomena of downward redistribution of wealth-modestly-that occurred during the war. The author points out that war spending was a government stimulus that was paid for with increased taxes on the rich largely.

With 50 million Americans out of work today and only half of working age American employed it is interesting to consider a little some of the effects of a downward redistribution of wealth.

1) When full employment occurs government welfare payments drop
2) With full employment the poor may save capital and have capital to invent in business development
3) With a concentration of wealth innovation and stagnation may set in, while with no class of poor people and all with basic goods for healthy living millions more are freed to be competitive, have good tools for progress, develop intellectual capital and so forth.
President Roosevelt developed only a few of the most significant ideas that became legislation creating the New Deal, and he also invented Lend-Lease to The British and Soviet governments, however Roosevelt as an unspoiled rich kid who grew up with everything including a desire for public service, also had the resolve to veto the military plans of about all his war leaders to open the U.S. entry into the European war with
A beach invasion of France and instead go with Churchill’s desire to capture North African areas held by Nazi Germany and its allies before attacking Europe-and of course the plan worked brilliantly allowing a multi-front invasion of Europe.

Roosevelt was quite liberal in allowing is military leaders to execute the war unlike Hitler and Stalin. He was far from being a perfect politician and made many wrong turns yet fewer than right turns, and the nation moved on to a few great post-war decades of economic and scientific achievement perhaps because of Roosevelt’s opening of doors to millions of Americans to experience a modern, technical, scientific world accessible to all citizens that they could help manufacture.

F.D.R. contracted polio at age 39 and did not let the fact keep him from taking the Presidency and accomplishing a better than average job.

As the day for his first inauguration approached Mr. Roosevelt returned from a cruise and got in a car (a convertible) in Miami. An assassin appeared and took shots from 35 feet away hitting five people, some critically and the secret service drove off. President-elect Roosevelt looked back and saw the Chicago Mayor lying wounded on the ground and ordered his driver to turn back so he could help. Mayor Cermak was loaded into the car and the President elect held Mayor Cermak who was critically injured on the way to hospital.

President Roosevelt also flew to Casablanca to meet with Churchill on something of an adventure. Churchill himself had previously met with French leaders while the Germans were just a hundred or so miles away. Churchill was a hard one to be outdone for calm and casualness in challenging circumstances. In some respects Roosevelt’s presidency was as stressful domestically with class and party economic differences of opinion to deal with as the technical complexities of managing foreign war. When the Japanese de facto declared war attacked Pearl Harbor December 7th 1941 followed by Germany and Italy declaring war on the U.S.A. December 11th 1941 it made for three piece of perturbing news that the President was readily able to overcome. He had faith in the future and reasonable tools to meet it, living in the present sometimes too much to make today’s actions consequential building members of a planned future. Much of today’s popular business philosophy relying upon an unplanned used of natural resource by special interests may generate a predictable non-chaotic filling in of the geography f the world. Even recurrent chaotic systems generate predictable outcome within given, known parameters. We may learn much today from reading of the Roosevelt presence.
