Gender Wage Gap is a Good Democratic Political Trick

President Obama has developed the disparity between average male and female wages to his political advantage. He noted recently that females average only about 70% of male income in the U.S.A. and that change needs to happen. Part of the trouble is in comparing different occupations; should a file clerk get the same pay as a roustabout with 8th grade education, more or less? Is an office worker with a college degree comparable to the hard, dangerous life of the offshore oil patch?

In a perfect world a worker working ten quanta would be paid for ten quanta objectively and impartially. The sex, age, race or perversion of the worker would just not be a factor. Yet U.S. politicians instead develop a zillion laws to make 'corrections' to social inequality that have a cumulative of institutionalizing unfair and irrational economics.

Perhaps the President expects male wages to drop another 30% or females to get 30% raises to create an even field where work contribution is secondary to the personal characteristics of the person's class making a contribution. That is not an ergonomic compensation field.

We know that government work is largely neutered and machines can do the heavy lifting. Everyone has a swell paycheck and benefits in government. With the college degree and the desk, smart phone and tablet government workers twitter equally. Yet government work isn't on a free enterprise foundation and cannot be a model for reform of the private sector through swelling too-big-to-suffer-consequences-for-rash-risk corporations and making them homo-friendly.

President Obama supports legalization of millions of illegal aliens as new cheap American workers. That would help lower male wages to a certain extent following laws of labor supply and demand. Yet wages for men in the non-service worker sector probably won't drop enough to please Mr. Obama and his Harvard economic elite martinets even if new illegal aliens arrive to do the dirty and dangerous or difficult work if the wages drop too low. The primary benefit for the President will be in continuing to drive a wage between female and male Republican voters. More Republicrats may be elected. The nation can go further along its course of decay.

If one writes about economic reform and finds the Republican corporate powers unfair, the Democrats will lend a sympathetic ear. Yet what they mean by reform and what and intelligent soul means are quite different. Democrats mean redistribution of income from Republicans to gender, race and perversion criteria selected constituents while the intelligent soul may mean things like capping the size of government and corporations, transitioning to full-employment and ecological economics, and assuring that even minimum wage provides a descent standard of living. The intelligent soul will be disillusioned.

The gender wage gap exploits male workers as well as females politically. Instead of work being regarded qualitatively and quantitatively objective it's inherently class biased. The U.S. Government, comprised of so many incompetent, and uncreative individuals better-suited to communes or corporations than self-employment pose and posture very well-even with Hollywood Stars and pass laws that are a patchwork of illogic and economic contradictions with unfair compensation to compensate the rich for risk biased toward the poor. How otherwise could Gov. Chris Christie, New Jersey and New York get $60 billion for storm damage and high water? How can the government provide easy sweetheart bailouts to corporations and banks and those that build or buy homes in floodplains? President Obama forced through the Nixon-Romney corporate health care act to create another vast and complex opportunity for pork barrel flummery. Free health care for the poor inn quality expanded V.A. hospitals would have been faster, cheaper and better. That would not have helped the aging immaterial work sector Democrat majority afford $250,000 per year health care to let them live to age two or three hundred if possible. It's questionable that the original intent of F.D.R. was to let workers or foreign workers contribute enough to let the middle class live like the rich in retirement or before.

Effete electron pushing house flippers and the swollen financial service sector making up 30%- of the workforce produce nothing material nor do physical work. The heavy lifting isn't a language activity. The non-dirty, dangerous or heavy lifting workers just want to reallocate a little more profit unto themselves.

Ideally work should be viewed entirely quantified -not considered through the lens of gender, race or perversion paradigmata. If one lifts 100 pounds ten times a day that should pay more than lifting 10 pounds five times a month. In America the threat is development of non-objectivity in work compensation. Equal opportunity to work should be foundational. The quality and quantity of work an individual does should be objectively measured and receive objective pay.

Those inclined to exploit others for profit have forever developed temporary methods for doing so. The Democrat party today is in the line of developing non-objective criteria of compensation and opportunity. Work opportunity should never be closed to an adult American citizen during their life. Work is an inalienable right and piecework for independents is probably the ideal social direction to evolve in.

The move of a majority of Americans into non-production service sector jobs without heavy lifting brings some enmity toward those saturation divers, professional athletes, building tradesmen and industrial workers that receive good compensation largely for males. The elite trend has been toward degrading that work and skimming wages to the immaterial work sector of the majority. President Obama has adroitly exploited the lower average income status of women and omitted mention whatsoever of fairness for all workers that should be on an objective basis.

Writers like to get paid by the word sometimes and get fair pay for their work. Of course it's difficult to assess qualitative values outside the marketplace. One could use MSword's grade level function and pay more for writing at a grade 16+ level than for level 8-. The marketplace has an element of unfair advantage to it as well as supply and demand. Location being everything it's sometimes difficult to get around corrupt government bureaucracies to legislate real change. President Obama should stop playing the gender card politically and instead seek a rectification of fair pay for objective work in the workplace and every worker. In the absence of social justice venality, corruption and the evil of iniquity forces concentration of wealth with decline of ecosphere and economy.

Republicrat Sen. Ayotte Throws Support to Illegal Alien Job Upgrades

The U.S. Senate is considering legislation to upgrade job prospects for 10-20 million illegal aliens this week. Republicrat Senator Ayotte of New Hampshire says she will support the measure to bump more unemployed Americans further off the ladder to prosperity. The Senate of course is expressing no interest or knowledge of the tens of millions of discouraged American job seekers experiencing long-term unemployment or underemployment. Instead the Senate smiles with approval on trillions of dollars of bail-outs to too-big-to-suffer-the-consequences-of-risk banks and automobile corporations while enjoying the rise in Wall Street values as the Federal Reserve issues hundreds of billions of zero-interest loans to banks so they can buy up distressed homes.

Unemployed American citizens are broke rather than the immigration system. If the Senate would pass a law letting all U.S. law enforcement agencies arrest and remand to federal custody undocumented aliens for right-of-return to their own nation, the problem would dry up soon enough, even without creation of a comprehensive Mexican-American border ecoszone to filter out illegal entry.

Traditional Quality Leadership for U.S.A. in 2016?

The United States has failed to produce substantive quality leadership in its Presidential campaigns the past several years. The desire to select race or gender candidates has taken priority over economic and ecospheric management quality. With the form-over-substance criteria the United States has entered a period of comparative economic decline and poor management of protracted wars. We not only liked Ike, the nation experienced general prosperity. Dwight D. Eisenhower had integrity and credibility.

 Former four-star Army General McKiernan is a where-are-they-now kind of leader with advanced degrees from Stanford, Harvard (we don't hold that against him) and elsewhere. McKiernan is the kind of Republican candidate that no longer stands for office, yet the Republican party certainly could use a few like that.

There seems to be little prospect for a Ralph Nader with military experience and an advanced degree in environmental economics. The build-up of large public debt, outsourcing of production, perennial high unemployment, decline of the environment and so forth are simply the line-up for the way things are.

The war in Afghanistan seemed to be a consequence of the bureaucratic inertia of the Eastern elite organizational intertia in which there was no good leadership. Afghanistan has a zillion valleys and locals that fight rival valley tribes and foreigners. We should have done better by just being a supplier of goods, economic ideas and support and military equipment for locals seeking autonomy instead of seeking to foist a large central government on those people that disdain such entities. Our Syria policy might actually have worked in Afghanistan. In Syria we seek to disestablish a central government authority through support of a zillion militias while in Afghanistan we seek to fight Afghanis accustomed to local autonomy and force them into  submission to a modern, centralized state bureaucracy. After 2014 that entire structure may collapse like a phase transition to a more stable, lower energy level.

One wonders if the nation can even consider electing a Presidential candidate without a Hollywood shine and pooffiness of character acceptable to the Gay-Lesbian-Transgendered-Neutered-Bisexual foundation of the Democrat party today, or one that isn't simply sold out to global corporatism? 

Preview of Creation and Cosmos - The Literal Values of Genesis 2nd Ed

I have a new preview for the second edition of Creation and Cosmos - The Literal Values of Genesis providing a better idea of the content. Quite a few topics on contemporary cosmology are new to the second edition, and there are new ideas from a number of sources on Biblical development and history as well.

Social Network Analysis to Help Infected Chimps-What About Humans?

Social network analysis technique may be used to help prevent disease communication among chimps. Obviously some will note that social network analysis among humans may be used for evil as well as good.

http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/~3/rHXkrYcG7ec/130605104438.htm

Criminal networks may use social network to enfilade prey. Predatory capitalists may use social network analysis to identify easy pickins and political organs may use social network analysis to package the right disinformation with on-time delivery to the right e-mail address or social network user.

Chimps and humans have many similarities obviously. Each have five fingers and toes, like bananas and are ethically challenged. Humans at least have recognition of original sin although some evos are trying to erase that notion.

Chimps may not benefit from social networking sites as some humans do.That is chimps may not enjoy twittering although I doubt that an experiment to determine that has yet taken place. Chimps are more immune from the downside of social networks as well as the good. Social networks on the Internet can help for a kind of popular intellectual gridlock through the ubiquitous mass communication of ideas. Ideas can be disseminated quickly of course, and the power and intertial development of wrong or of a limited false alternative range of ideas can prevent the development of creative thought and good ideas through displacement.

The Syrian War Is An International Project

The Syrian war seems something of an international project that would not have developed so far as 80,000 dead without much international support including that of the United State's Obama administration. There is something about supporting the development of avoidable foreign conflicts that appeals to some when their own military is not engaged in action. Death of civilians is sometimes  not a problem sufficient enough for an Obama administration to carefully consider a priori what consequences their support for the incipient Syrian conflict would occur. Reasonable people know the nature of the Syrian Government and regional circumstances enough to know that it would not easily relinquish power.

The United Nations has reported the probable use of chemical weapons in Syria by one side or the other in the conflict-or perhaps both, yet since the U.S. propaganda about weapons of mass destruction in Saddam Hussein's Iraq turned out to be as bogus as the facts used in the Gulf of Tonkin resolution we are somewhat skeptical about the veracity and language used in media releases of casus belli for possible intervention or escalation of foreign military action in 3rd party conflicts.

The U.S. administration's logic is difficult to follow on Middle East policy. President Obama appeared to have stimulated and green lighted the Arab Spring with his Cairo speech and of course supported the Libyan revolution. American interests in repressing Al Qa'eda-a Sunni extremist organization coincided with ideas about fostering the development of democratic government in the Middle East that weren't evidently overly practical. The Saudi Royals are anything besides democratic, our friends in the Hashamite monarchy of Jordan are nice yet royal too, the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt of which the President of Egypt is a member appears to be at least mildly interested in developing Shria Muslim law and so forth. Democracy is not a traditional form of Arab social organization and might require deep sociological changes before such an experiment might ensue successfully. We tend to believe that Arab democracies would slip into the  French  republic into Napoleonic leadership autocracy mode for a few generations before they reached the perfection of a Nixon or Obama administration in enforcing equal protection of the law.

If the Obama administration is concerned about destabilizing Syria and accomplishing some form of adult abortion service for that region in harmony with the partisan political action committee Planned Parenthood's agenda on a global scale or not the greater objectives of containing the Iranian Government and President Amadinijab (to cannot run for another term as Iranian Preident) and his threats on Israel may seem to be advanced with a Syrian conflict supported by Sunni wealth, visiting Al Qa'eda terrorists and financial and equipment contributions to rebels from the United States.

Russia has of course contributed military weapons to the Syrian Government while N.A.T.O. has seemed to provide support for the rebels along with the Friends of Syria organization. Russia has naval facilities in Syria that allow their vessels to have a warm water port outside the Black Sea-a concern the United States ought to keep in mind. It is an historical concern of Russia that should not be lightly disregarded as unimportant value to Russians they can bite the bullet on. Russia's other interests in support of a non Sunni Muslim presence below it's southern border may be related to its concerns about domestic Russia terrorism from the Sunni of Chechnya or elsewhere. It may also be that Russia seeks weapons sales as much as the United States for economic purposes. Perhaps the Obama administration should consider buying a few Migs to improve Russo-American relations.

It still seems to me that the best thing that could be done to reduce the Syrian conflict would be for the Obama administration to stop making statements in support of the rebels and to quit providing material assistance to the rebels. Quantifying the effects of a violent transition in the Syrian Government upon the Alawite and Hezballah of Lebanon is not easy. It is probable that some sort of new era of purging and terrorism could develop, and some sort of flight of those people  to Iran. Perhaps those people might also develop more support for the Northern alliance side of Afghanistan in a post-American military era in that nation. If the Syrian Government of Assad is driven out of office even with strong support from his own tribal group the Sunni forces of the region make look with a swell of pride toward new objectives in Afghanistan in the belief that renewed and increased terrorism might drive the minority Northern Alliance out entirely and purge Afghanistan of non-Sunni political power.

It would have been best if the Syrian war had not developed but of course the Mr. McGoo foreign policy approach seems to work for the Obama administration, and it is a foreign war without American casualties. It would still have been better to have let democracy develop through peaceful twittering without a military component. Evolution inn politics through gradual change can be better than the bullets and explosives, chemical weapons and foreign interventions of deep water internationalism.

Wall Street Virtual Bunnies Too Big to Fail (poem)

Quick like a virtual bunny
running through galaxies of political Universes
time exhaled mighty breaths
inflating fields of fantasy
called balanced budgets and e-dollars

Ships-of-state sailed over borders
eroded from below in waves of time's syncopated rhythms
crashed on shoals of semi-scientism edging forward
engines broke through bulkheads
firewalls on fire
melting steel in deep pools 
reflecting shiny precipitated prestige of power

Smoke and mirrors breezed through that subdivision's heat
stopped by nothing like snow, hail or sleet
broadcast spectra of extra dimensions
concentrated gravity like tomorrow's tornado'd pension
nothing structured to withstand the blow

Banking singularities too big to fail 
in the nest of Phoenix cuckoos of crisp design
wrote the new algorithms of Monte Carlo
harvest moons of reallocated cash
supplied on demand.

Neanderthal Oilcans Global Warming Death vs. EvoLizardFagocrats in 2016

U.S. politics leaves little to be desired in the tabloid paradigms clashing in dialectical mufsidoonisms. Backward looking Republican leadership squeezing more and more oil, SUVs and asphalt paving in wilderness and farmland run against godless atheist Democrat evolutionists with a 'nothing is real' ethos of anti-nationalism and homosexual center of effort of the ship of state.  Lizardcrats may believe love is the answer failing to realize that sin is a form of hate. Homosexuality is sin.

Neither major political party platform is very encouraging for just plain old poor, straight intellectual-athletes seeking change toward the ideal restorations of individual civil rights, ecosphere, national interest free enterprise with caps on the size of corporations, government, finance sector and with directed transition toward a fossil fuel free, no mass extinction of species America with zero involuntary unemployment.

At least the U.S.A. is no longer a good example for the world to follow on ecospheric friendly economic activity-if it ever was. The nation is stuck in the past or with its head up its a politically speaking, and shall remain in that dark place for some time I would think as the economic center of effort has shifted overseas through globalism.

A philosophical video on the Problem of Space treated as a Substance in General Relativity

A philosophical home-video on the problem of space being treated as a substance in Einstein's Theory of General Relativity.

Space is treated as a substance within General Relativity in order to model the actual cosmos. Logically thought, space is only a metaphor for the too-difficult-to-describe quanta of mass-energy comprising the physical Universe. Space in-itself is nothing at all-perhaps the ultimate contingent paradox. Space is infinite at all points, space has no location or extension, and is a volume of infinite extent without existing at all. Space ought not be regarded though as having vacuum energy. 

Instead spatial curvature in General Relativity should be refined to describe relationships of mass-energy tensors. Mass-energy relationship quantification in specific formulations ought to equal  gravitational fields of local systems in given time paradigms.

Logically mass-energy force tensors might take curved trajectories creating an appearance of spatial curvature.

Republicans Fail to Run Popular Candidates for President-Evolution of National Decline

Robert Redford starred in a film named 'The Candidate' long ago, one would think the Republican Party capable of comprehending political marketing strategy well enough to select a winner. But no, the Republican Party seems not to comprehend that Democrats run candidates with charisma and minimal qualifications economically speaking and that's good enough to win. In the meanwhile Toynbean historical cycle of national decline is overtaking the nation while no one is minding the store.

Marketing strategies for products work well for Republicans-they could rival George S. Parker in that field, yet they seem to pick the most uncharismatic candidates they can find for the White House without characteristics appealing to women. In the post-Oprah media world appearance is more valuable for getting elected than substance. Or rather, the substance is the appearance.

Voters don't want to feel saddled with an unpleasant President elected because the alternative is worse. Republicans need to pull out all the stops and use full court pressure even to have a chance at getting 50% of the vote in recent elections because they aren't running top-drawer individuals. Why not?

The answer could be that the U.S.A. just doesn't matter so much to the rich party anymore with China and Mexico being better places to invest capital for profit. Besides, the Democrat Presidents are doing the Republican's work in economics for them except for the debt, yet public debt perhaps isn't too meaningful to global capitalists networked abroad. If U.S. interests decline the value of their foreign interests shall rise.

Evolution theory has developed in politics as a buzzword for fate. Evolution political theory is a blind historical force determining political development rather than intelligent design inclusive of the well being of all U.S. citizens in the U.S.A. today. It is a convenient excuse enabling the concentration of wealth and political power in privileged elites. Political evolution theory applied as an equivalent of the oriental joss (fate) may be satisfactory for select scientific classes of epistemological extremists on the left and right with a point of view of human mind upgraded in the worst of B.F. Skinner's; The human body theory goes, is meat and mind is no more than a bio-chemical apparition within.

There is just no political demand for full employment and a balanced budget in the U.S.A.  with existentialist individual value satisfaction being the reality check on Wall Street. That is the Democrat Party does not run candidates with competence in economic realism any more. One postures and tries to fund partisan interests and lets the public debt absorb the not realistic approach to holistic national economics.

Every American needs a minimum income-there is simply a cost of living and jobs are hard to find. Even college graduates are unemployed or underemployed not uncommonly and the cost of getting good skills is very high especially with corporate permanence in the U.S.A. being decreasingly something to count on. Occasionally the nation selects a charismatic and competent individual with economic realism to be President, and that rare event seems like radical reform even if it is only moderately so. In 2016 the Republicans should actually make an effort to find an economic realist capable of generating full employment, ecological reform and moral leadership concurrent with destroying public debt in the short-term. The nation ought to step back from the brink of the 4th phase of the Toynbee cycle of decline from the universal phase.
