U.S. Job Creation Drops Off in March

To reduce the nation's unemployment rate it is generally held that more than 250,000 jobs must be created per month. In March just 120,000 new jobs opened yet the unemployment rate is said to have dropped a tenth of a percent to 8.2. Not since October 2011 have so few new jobs been created nationally.

The national economy seems badly set generally though with unsustainable national debt increase. another Obama administration would rocket the debt beyond 20 trillion dollars from the present 15 trillion or so. Interest on the national debt would be more than a trillion dollars annually.

Even if the unemployment rate were to drop to four percent right away (unlikely) the debt structured economy with declining average pay in 1971 dollars, and with homes to large with huge finance costs and lengthy mortgages, while manufacturing is largely outsourced and the financial related services sector employing about 30% of the workforce is another economic crisis waiting to happen.

Besides that, the non-renewable nature of traditional economic values and consumer debt required to stimulate a non-renewable economy increase the need for reformist politicians with good new ideas about delivering quality lifestyle for all Americans with a recovery ecospherically and with elimination of personal and national debt. it is quite possible, yet the traditional economics and politics of the U.S.A. today is something like N.F.L. players that have run their heads into the concussive opposition a few to many years continuing to go after the same plays again with the encouragement of bounty for head shots providing coaches.

Next Generation of Radiation-free Atomic Bombs

I read an informal discussion on the topic of scientific developments of radiation-free nuclear bombs. Everyone knows about the neutron bomb and its retirement by the first Bush administration after the end of the cold war. I did not know that research continued on the development of radiation free hydrogen bombs however.

Evidently atomic bombs have a jacket that can absorbs neutrons usually, and it is simple enough to design warheads to produce low radiation or make them full of gamma, beta and alpha rad.

With a next generation of high yield,low rad atomic bombs I suppose that very hardened opposition force secret research facilities very powerful below the ground locations will be within range of termination. It is interesting and concerning that atomic weapons can be commonly made to not make long-lasting radiation upon detonation. That may tempt some future war planners to use them in a critical circumstance.

Timbuktu Gets Sharia Law, Mali Challenges Ahead

Mali's ongoing civil changes after the deposition of the elected government March 21st by a junta led by Capt. Amadou Sanogo are a result of Tuareg rebels being driven from Libya with the regime change encouraged by the Obama administration. One wonders if Mali will become another refuge for dissenters to western economic and civil patterns, as Salifist Sunni Moslems are also at the forefront of the takeover of Mali evidently.

http://articles.cnn.com/2012-04-04/africa/world_africa_mali-unrest_1_power-or-face-sanctions-mali-tuareg?_s=PM:AFRICA

Tuareg rebels want to create a new homeland named Azawad in Northern Mali. West African nations are planning military intervention to drive out the insurgency that might migrate somewhere else, since those people may have nowhere to go as an ethnic group beside some nation claimed by other ethnic groups. The French have said they will provide something like non-lethal material support for the West African intervention. The Foreign Legion doesn't seem likely to drop from the sky over Timbuktu right away.

The leaders of the revolution plan to have a convention to determine issues about Mali's future.

Yet Timbukto has been placed under Sharia law by the de facto Northern Mali government, and I suppose they may get gasoline to fuel their Toyota desert pick ups from some Saudi benefactor if sanctions for the regular fuel supply are cut. Mali has only about a two week gasoline supply.

U.N. potentate Kofi Annan is interested in 'silencing the tanks' of Syria, yet the developing Mali crisis does not seem to be a trivial affair. With three million people Mali people could suffer somewhat with a protracted irregular conflict, and of course the event-process of Al Qa'eda and other Moslem sharia law supporting irregular cover/overt paramilitary forces drifting in an out of Mali to this border and that may complicate the stabilization needed to allow development of national economies based on natural resource depletion and carbon dioxide emissions to say nothing of the extermination of wildlife, promotion of bureaucracy and liberation of women from traditional social and moral norms or other norms that were normal somewhere else. What will the U.N. do to prevent any loss of life in Mali and to assure adequate clean water supplies, good employment and personal security for all Malians right away?

Obamacare Would Cost Youth Trillions and Trillions

Younger Americans are the basic group targeted for financial exploitation by Obamacare. Unlike social security where a lifetime of contributions in theory return something for many, the involuntary health insurance payments to for-profit corporations from those under 44 will return nothing upon reaching retirement age. The program is designed to transfer wealth from younger workers to the middle class that want to pay less money for health care.

In early times transferring wealth from one social class to another was regarded as the right of kings and of slave owners that reallocated the labor value of commoners inn order to concentrate wealth. Today the policy is known as Obamacare.

http://2010.census.gov/news/releases/operations/cb11-cn147.htm

The 18 to 44 age group is not increasing nearly as quickly as older groups. Middle class use of insurance that is subsidized by younger workers is likely to increase as they find contraceptives with special spices and ointments covered by insurance, and discover that each new blemish requires a dermatologist trained in vanishing those spots, or that augmented breasts and hair transplants are covered by medical insurers. Won't the Democrat elites find that guru-led hot tub chanting at special spas are necessary for the health and well-being of the whole person and mandate insurers to pay for that and more?

How much will younger workers saddled with Obamadebt pay over the rest of their lifetime? If they give up 2000 a year that would be $20,000 per decade. If the cost doubles in 20 years they would pay $40,000 per decade. Some workers might pay a half million dollars over a lifetime in order to get a hernia fixed once or twice II guess before reaching medicare age. That is one expensive surcharge to subsidize health costs for the middle class and burden the poor with paperwork invading their privacy and harassing them.

Creating free public services for those that cannot afford them otherwise is something of an F.D.R. tradition since the depression. The public isn't prevented by the constitution from expanding the V.A. system to provide free health care for the poor as well as veterans while continuing to provide medicare for the elderly. That would be a better, lawful approach for emergency medical provisioning that works realistically.

The young can use their money to invest in their future perhaps buying a per-fab home. They too if poor could use the expanded V.A. open hospital for the poor if necessary. If they can afford it they should pay out of pocket like the middle class and perhaps invent a better, cheaper form of medical care provisioning if they are really restive about the problem; preferably one that exploits the advantages of free enterprise.

Stars and Empty Space version 2.0 (poem)

The sun chases around empty space
leaving its past behind in recurrent place
near emptiness with virtual particles and cosmic rays
crenellated dimensions; six extra small ones they’ve waved
one star in a metaphor of warped space still
time a fully extended direction processing space force fields

Stars burning hydrogen in darkness' sight
abyssal dream of non-being night
attuned to the transformation of elemental ideas
stars move like unit cartridges in a river flowing near
packaged to burn with nowhere to go

Like past season’s tents pitched
aslope on soggy moss in fog
H20 yet unfrozen early snow descends upon soggy logs
thoughts of God we believe everywhere
similes of pre-formed patterns niche
determinism of constructed universes strung together

As the Lamb of God was slaughtered
from the first moment intelligence became lost
recovering the beginning of time with a Word for others
we’ve asked pardon for misunderstanding tossed
everything subject to analytique and reasoned theory
that seems beautiful topography for-itself grown weary
of age and time away from the beginning
stars in greater movements
in the space-book of live pages turned
through wonderful mystery.

Syrian Cease Fire 10 April/Annan-Assad

Kofi Annan (a U.N. rep. at large) has brought the Assad Government to accept a cease fire on April 10th. Since there is only one regular government in Syria that means that the government will leave some of the cities it has been pummelling for a while and allow 'humanitarian' goods and personnel too perhaps to reinforce the rebel movement's health and welfare status.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-04-03/annan-says-syria-agrees-to-april-10-peace-deadline/3928656/?site=melbourne

Recently select Gulf Nations and the U.S. Government (the 'Friends of Syria') decided to pay the rebels wages and provide material assistance. A Washington Post headline called it a possible "blank check for Syrian opposition".

http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/gulf-plan-to-fund-syrian-rebels-could-be-blank-check-for-opposition-forces/2012/04/02/gIQAN5zJrS_story.html

The friends except for the U.S.A. might be providing military help too. There is no word presently about what effect that will have on the cease fire.

President Obama Warns Supreme Court Justices

The President's comments seem a bit too imperious for an attorney that seems to fail to respect how the triune government works. The Supreme Court rules on the constitutionality of laws passed by the congress now and then. It is not unprecedented as the President claims, for the Court to overturn laws. It seems to happen often enough.

The Democrat controlled congress forced through Obamacare without, I believe, a single Republican voting for the 2700 page omnibus law that might have enough provisions to make the President another V.I. Lenin-it is rumored that no one has actually read the entire bill.

The bill was not passed by 'a strong majority', but forced through by one party on a technicality.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/04/02/obama-confident-supreme-court-will-uphold-health-care-law/

The President referred to the Court justices as "an unelected group of people" and said that "I'm confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress".

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/president-obamacare-191235956.html

Obamacare would force the poor that do free enterprise to provide the government with their current address and employment status forever I would think, and with the I.R.S. tax codes badly disposed for those making less than 10,000 annually with odd jobs perhaps travelling interstate while homeless it places unreasonable burdens on those not as established as Harvard alumni.

I rode a bicycle perhaps 30,000 miles looking for work around several states, and it would have been impractical to update various state's insurance exchange, postal addresses and so forth in any sort of realistic time paradigm. When in search of the work and free enterprise opportunities one does not know a priori where one will be next week. If work does not show up in a city in a week or two its usually best to move on. The secure and comfortable people that make laws like Obamacare are clueless about the real world beyond the class sinecures they dwell in. They simply pass bad laws of value to themselves as a middle and upper class that reflect their own view of social reality. Their work efforts are antipathetic toward the efforts of the poor and broke yet independent minded that just don't have their superior income revenue stream status.

All of the poor would need to have a computer and Internet access as well I guess to get and update all their personal data required by the Federal Government. Many of the poor are not computer users, and there may not be enough public computers available in the nation's public libraries for the use of the millions of the nation's poor.

The I.R.S. tax form S.E. isn't really designed for use of people working as laborers for a few days here, and a few hours there from one state to another. I file tax returns yet I would bet that myriads of the very poor do not for the trouble.

The President will probably be unelected in November after Obamacare fails in June so he seems to be getting a little stressed-enough to chastise the Court for even considering voting against his will.

With no representation for the poor in the Congress (there are no poor members of Congress) practical health care for the poor just doesn't occur to anyone in that August facility. The V.A. Hospital system should be expanded and provide free healthcare for the poor. Satellite clinics to triage and screen out those that don't require substantial care at large hospitals should be made there.

The poor require free health care while the middle class should pay for their own. The Democrats in Congress voted yes for renewal of the Bush era tax cuts for the rich and middle class so the economy is moribund for those out of world-and of course the employed middle class and rich don't really give a hoot.

Taxes should be raised on the middle class and rich, but they won't be of course, and Democrats instead will talk about the Republican war on women who are allied with the forces of depravity generally on the Democratic side. I believe its really a reference to the war of men upon women that is a basic premise of the Lesbian way of thinking.

The Emperor Theory of Quantum Cosmology

An article in the Scientific American blog mentioned a quantum cosmology theory of interest.The theory of a quantum field with supersymmetry goes deeper than quantum mechanics and the General Theory of Relativity too I would guess. The theory covers ground beyond M-Theory perhaps that would unify the hypothetical super-string theories.

http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/2012/03/30/the-emperor-darth-vader-and-the-ultimate-ultimate-theory-of-physics-2/

It seems like a great idea since the quantification of all of the elements of mass and energy in space-time has been a project since Plank and Einstein got that ball rolling at the start of the 1900's.

I would guess that the trouble is that it is difficult to know what should be quantified as reference objects. The very small and the very large are part of a continuum, along with everything that existed before the start of the Universe obviously. Knowledge of anything such as hypothetical gravitons and strings, membranes of zero-dimension and fields of energy, in addition to 'dark energy' and the possible kinds of existing things besides matter and anti-matter are nominal reference objects. They could be spiritual monads as Leibniz wrote, yet the solidity of physical constants at least of a long-lasting temporal character in steady state physics of the Universe is evident at least so far as providing meaning structures comparable to the chords made sounding on a guitar...for residents of the strings they would be powerful frequencies of experience.

Physicists have much room for theoretical work in the years ahead.

Alaska Gov. & Exxon Mobile Agree on Gas Field Development

The development of a natural gas field with 8 trillion cubic feet of gas at Point Thompson on the North Slope with Exxon Mobile building a pipeline to bring 70,000 barrels of liquids per day into the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System has been agreed upon by the state's Governor and the Exxon-Mobile Corporation.The development of a natural gas field with 8 trillion cubic feet of gas at Point Thompson on the North Slope with Exxon Mobile building a pipeline to bring 70,000 barrels of liquids per day into the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System has been agreed upon by the state's Governor and the Exxon-Mobile Corporation. That might be oil from the field. Exxon-Mobile also agreed to produce 10,000 barrels per day of natural gas condensates by winter 2015-16.

Exxon-Mobile will be able to export gas in ships to Asia however a pipeline to a possible LNG plant on Cook inlet or Prince William Sound may be of more benefit to the state as it to can use natural gas for energy needs in the rail-belt and Anchorage.

With an abundance of natural gas in the contiguous 48 states the possibility of reducing the U.S. trade deficit a little with sale of Alaska natural gas abroad as well as on the spot market globally is possible.

N.S.A.B.B. Recommends Publishing Aersolized Bird Flu Plans

The National Science Advisory board has recommended that research that created an aerosol version of the 60%-fatal-to-humans avian bird flu virus go ahead for published because it might help to understand how mutations make it easier for viruses to be communicated around the world.

Listening to a radio story regarding 'bioethicists' being needed to help scientists make up their mind on the topic because they would otherwise not know what to do, I must admit that I was amused at the idea that biologists are amoral, thoughtless drones requiring programming on 'bioethics'. The Nazi's with Dr. Joesph Mengele must have been equally challenged by moral dilemas that required help from 'ethicists' on the nature of good and evil and of right and wrong.
