President Trump Concentrated Wealth to the 1/1000th% During His Administration

 President Trump's policies  were designed to gut environmental protections generally and concentrate wealth for billionaires and other members of the 1/1000th percentile of U.S. income earners. The covid 19 era was an especially great windfall for the wealthiest Americans.  With so much broadcast media support for policies that primarily benefit the richest it seems there is little prospect for slowing the inexorable roll toward American aristocracy and plutocratic rule by the most unconscionable class of citizens with no regard for egalitarianism and equal opportunity at all stages of life for actualization of good ideas. Leadership by the dumb seems to be the prevailing trend.

What is dumb leadership? It is unthoughtful, non-philosophically primate inertia to just throughput mass and exchange it for cash without regard to the environmental damage and unsustainable, profligate use of the world's natural resources. It is leadership that is oppressive of poor intellectuals and political parties that do not promote qualified candidates able to understand contemporary ecological economics and plan to move the existing economy seemlessly into a nearly sustainable, recovering state of affairs with the environment no longer suffering mass extinction.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkshire_Hathaway#:~:text=For%20the%20fiscal%20year%202019,over%20the%20previous%20fiscal%20cycle.

While the Democrat Party simply selects lawyers (who are good enough in courtrooms), Republicans are nearly equally as guilty of picking lawyers or crude business people without any interest in economic ecological change nor apparently capacity for abstract thought.

Without a basic right to work and have opportunity to develop creative products including ideas for all citizens because of traps of poverty and political correctness the nation suffers along under the inertia of the blind pursuit of objects of greed leadership.  President Trump is an example of a non-creative billionaire class that have expropriated politics in order to exploit resources. Montana has elected a billionaire Governor as well who tired of two years in the House of Representatives and sought more rewarding opportunity. If millions of Americans are assured a basic income and health care including intellectuals instead of promoting just a few sycophants of Wall Street greater creativity and new leadership might results too. The most rich status quo sort of classes have generally enjoyed repressing bright poor people in order to keep their revenue streams mostly exclusive. The United States should be different than that.

A Resume for the Covid & Outsourcing Era

 Looking around for work during this pandemic year has made things a little difficult. During the Obama administration corporate censorship took down every place I posted including one site where I earned $200 monthly writing essays. I had work until the end of February 2020 when I was forced to leave (though the state of Montana U.I. people said I voluntarily quit and never paid a dollar in benefits and saud apparently I would need to pay a penalty of about $1000 dollars to be eligible for an unemployment check.

Incidentally I will post a resume below in case anyone has actual work.

I was learning to be a dental lab technician for a year and a half and was getting very good at making models from impressions, cutting out dies and so forth. So I hoped to be able to find work in that area and continue learning how to reline dentures commercially. I had repainted homes and other building exteriors on and off for the better part of a half century yet am hoping to transition to something else.  Ladders are tough on older knees-especially without any Medicare part B. I suppose I would still have some accuracy with select military skills however I am too old for military work to qualify.

Riding a bike around the city I am in I checked out eight dental labs listed as working in the spring and discovered that all except two are out of business. The thing is dentists are Fedex-ing packages to labs in China that make products far cheaper than in the U.S.A. There may be just 3000 dental labs remaining in the U.S.A. and they are fading rather fast especially with internet digital sata transfering scans of patients directly to China. Many dentists have invested as partners in their own labs in China cutting out American workers.

President Elect Biden WIll Need to Tackle Covid Pandemic

 President elect Biden will need to tackle the Covid 19 pandemic post-hast since President Trump has let it escape to reach record infection rates of 125,000 each day presently. More than a thousand Americans are dying each day too. Instead of wasting a lot of time and effort with losing legal challenges to the vote the President should work with the Democrat President-elect's team to stifle the expansion of the virus and yet work on ecological economic reform as well. During the period of transitions until January 20th President Trump could allow quite a few avoidable deaths if he solely relies on a vaccine to appear that might take a couple of months or more to reach general distribution.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-wins-presidency-trump-fox-news-projects

Americans that contract covid 19 and face death during the waning days of the Trump administration probably care about that and would prefer to avoid that if possible. The mass extinction of the ecosystem is also an ongoing problem that was exacerbated by the terrible anti-ecospheric health measures taken in Alaska recently. President-elect Biden will need to consider recuing the old growth forests of S.E. Alaska, the Arctic National WIldlife Refuge and the Bristol Bay salmon fisheries that have been thrown to predators.

Biden Admin- First 100 Days in a Wrong Direction?

 If Nearly President-elect Biden actually wins the battle for Presidential power and gets off to the wrong start in his first 100 days in office that will set the tone for a four year protracted war of deplorables against the establishment. It is hard to believe that a pro-homosexual, pro-abortion, anti-border security, pro-China administration is considered moderate and centrist, yet they are at least by the broadcast media that has gone so far to push Wall-Street business extremism to hegemonic advantage over democracy and rational, national self-interest as to bungle the prime. President Biter will still be assaulted by the problems of Ukraine and his son Hunter’s seemingly perfidious relations with insiders fundamentally provoking conflict with Russia to gain valuable land on the border region beyond the Dnepr.

 Virtual President-elect Biter can avoid some of the nearly automatic divisiveness over four years if he focuses on his primary task of moving the economy toward one of sustainable ecological economics first. Make no mistake- that is the most important and difficult task he faces. If instead he prioritizes special interest social class rewards such as concern homosexuals and abortionists in his first 100 days he is likely to get nowhere on an economic reform agenda. The Clinton administration bungled the first term of office and experienced impeachment effects in the second.

 Virtual President-elect Joe Biden does not have any sort of national consensus of support. He is winning the election count solely because of the unlikable one-trick pony nature of Donald Trump and his sycophants that declare the liberal agenda and environmentalism the flip side of the late Fidel Castro’s greater world vision of communist utopia. In my opinion both parties are tools of Wall Street seeking mostly enrichment of their leadership following the shining path of the little red book; None Dare Call it Reason- Extremism in Pursuit of Proplits is No Vice.

 If a Biden administration can actually include all poor Americans in free health care and move the nation toward actual ecological economic change and sustainability then he would have accomplished something worthwhile. The best selling work-book Revolt of the Deplorables contains the philosophy of tax-dodging, monster-truck driving oily dude resistors persecuted by hair-slicked back wise-guys raking in cash on Wall Street (or would if it were written yet). Some of the media high school grad mouthpieces will read from that playbook on how to counter the Biter administration. Getting anything real done in office other than interacting with Hollywood and media may be challenging for a contemporary President. Bringing the nation toward a modern egalitarianism rather than concentrating wealth to a plutocratic class reducing 100 million Americans toward economic servility would be simpler if President-elect Biden stays away from attacks on the second amendment and from attacks on the civil rights of conservatives.


 Nearly Vice-President Harris elect should establish her 2024 Presidential campaign itinerary during the first 100 days since Joe Biden like L.B.J. is not likely to run for re-election. If the President is too busy conferring with Hollywood the first 100 days on homosexual training films for American public school indoctrination the Vice President can be working on sustainable ecological economic policies that are sustainable into her first term as President if she can beat whatever dreg, bottom of the barrel candidate the Republican Party condescends to allow to run in 2024. If the President experiences impeachment after the 2022 election a detachable, sustainable ecological economic policy would be useful for the Vice-President’s 2024 campaign.

U.S. Leadership Regime Change Cohokia Style

Looking to America’s past to consider the present one may regard the ancient Missouri civilization of Cohokia that flourished for a couple of hundred years circa 1500. The civilization at East St. Louis had pyramids and a great sports field whereat athletes would throw a spear through a donut flung far down the sand-sprinkled clay court. Back in the day before machines made many  physical work tasks obsolete the ability to throw spears for war was more than a symbolic pursuit; it also symbolized sexual prowess. The way the Cohokians changed leadership regimes is of interest.

 When the ruling chief died or was deposed a complete house-cleaning followed. All of the Chief and his relatives including women and children were brought to the great sports court at the foot of the great pyramid and a great festive purge was held. Around the perimeter of the sports court a great trench was dug and the family of the dead or soon to be dead chief were assembled before it. A matching team of fell clubbers lined up in back of the former leader’s family and they, along with servants of the former chief were clubber on the head, fell into the trench and were swiftly buried as the trench was filled in directly with the good Missouri soil.

https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/198/

 In some respects the Cohokian regime change practices were forward thinking in comparison to that of the present United States. The Clintons for example, lingered around the term-limited office for decades seeking a way to get back in and thereby cluttering up and degrading the Democrat party. The Kennedy clan is another notable entry, and the Trump clan may actualize the same sort of phenomena in time. If the Cohokian method were used instead of the present system of media re-presentation of former leaders ad nauseum (adapted peacefully of course perhaps with banning of Presidential relatives running for office for a century) the United States would probably be better off.

Evangelical Vote for an alleged Loutish Serial Rapist Tuesday?

 President Trump during the 2016 election got support from Bible based Christians in spite of serious allegations of rape that emerged during the campaign. They had little choice with Hillary Clinton as the alternative. Mr. Trump promised to appoint conservative judges to the High Court and he did so. In that respect he served a purpose that now no longer exists. Christians may need to rethink re-electing a confirmed arrogant lout billionaire Tuesday.

 https://www.usatoday.com/in-depth/news/investigations/2020/10/21/trump-sexual-assault-allegations-share-similar-patterns-19-women/5279155002/

 It isn’t likely that a single vacancy on the Supreme Court will arise the next four years. President Trump has lately been destroying environmental protections as if it was a fire sale. Given another term he would have a chance to rape the ecosystem of the United States for the benefit of billionaires without conscience or restraint. Re-electing one of the top alleged serial rapists in Presidential history should give Christians pause for thinking.

 America can probably survive four years of a Democrat administration. President Trump has said the election is between capitalism and socialism, but that would have required Bernie Sanders to be running and that still would have been a wrong description. It is more like the contest between Spanish fascists and Republicans; between the Greatest inferior blonde-in-chief and normal souls. It is an election that requires anti-scientific followers who admire their boss like plantation niggers to keep the President in office, for the followers of President Trump may be regarded by his sort of people as niggers if they are not blue-eyed, blond or red-heads. If they are then that is simply tribal and a kind of informal referendum upon them. There is a confluence of purely worldly avarist support for President Donald Trump.

 First Epistle of John 2, 16-18

 “15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the

world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is

not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and

the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the

Father, but is of the world.

17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof:

but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”

 President Trump’s kind of people simple focus on wealth, power and greased back hair as if material wealth and political power are the only things worth getting in life. Everyone else can burn in their outlook. It isn’t a socially cooperative attitude seeking after the well being of all citizens and residents of the United States. Even if President Trump’s campaign gave a free gift of a negro dish washing tool with an afro-haircut scrubbing head to every likely or undecided voter it isn’t likely that he could make the electorate entirely forget about his problems with women that stimulated the me-too movement and years of hatred.

 If the new Democrat administration turns out bad the nation will survive. The Court is able to dampen the worst excesses of Democrat self-destruction until a true President emerges someday to fix the ecosystem, make the economy sustainable and assure that all citizens have health care and basic incomes within an egalitarian social environment with liberty and justice for all.

President Trump’s Economic Bouncing Ball of Death

 Presidents running for re-election traditionally time an economic bounce near the election to motivate citizens to vote for them. When they fail to do that they tend to lose. President Jimmy Carter was a case in point; he mistimed the bounce and lost to Ronald Reagan. President Trump’s bounce was announced today just a few days before the election, and the news was positive for him with gross domestic product returning to just three points less than that before Covid 19 hit. That means billionaires were getting stuffed during the Covid 19 death watch; good news for billionaires. That explains why the President ignored advice about safety from mass Covid 19 infection generally and encouraged the nation to go about economics normally; he thought it necessary for him to win re-election in November. He should instead have learned to walk and chew gum simultaneously containing Covid and enabling economics to function in a dangerous viral ecosphere.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/28/dr-fauci-warns-of-a-whole-lot-of-pain-due-to-coronavirus-pandemic-in-the-coming-months-.html

 There are serious concerns such as ‘is the 83 year old Pope trying to suicide via union with the lethal “lady” Covid 19 by not wearing a mask because he knowd he dun wrong in saying in a speech last year  recently revealed that 'homosexual civil unions are o.k.', 

https://news.yahoo.com/pope-says-lady-covid-must-104519407.html

and other  matters...

Every American entering the polls Tuesday should ask themselves who they like better; the comedic Daffy Duck or the frumpish environment-killing Donald Duck. In your heart you know Daffy is right.

 Building the President Trump’s Economic Bouncing Ball of Death economy on a foundation of 230,000 dead bodies was wrong. Sure it was possible to cull Americans by the hundreds of thousands with shoddy, incompetent health management (a tradition of the U.S. Government where policies by both major parties have led to the complete exclusion of the poorest old Americans from Medicare Part B coverage) and let business act more or less normally in an abnormal pandemic circumstance, and it was also wicked. Intelligent leadership less inclined to act like Hitler accelerating the German economy would have sought innovative ways to keep business open and virus spread minimized. I wrote numerous times about leadership in making a full face mask covering head and eyes to let people go about life in crowded urban areas more or less normally and zero federal leadership ever developed along that line. Halloween masks could have been converted at factories to support Covid 19 defense as I suggested numerous times. Instead the needless increasing count of American Covid 19 deaths continues to rise because the President is more concerned with his re-election.

 President Trump is attacking the environment’s health aggressively as well. Alaska’s Tongass National Forest, Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the Bristol Bay salmon fishery have all been thrown to the ravenous wild creatures of Wall Street. Ending wild natural spaces is just wrong and disgusting evil perpetrated by a global billionaire predator as ruthless as the Texan that clear cut California Redwood forests. Alaskan fisheries and wilderness areas need increased protection to recover; not increased exploitation to perish. Building up Wall Street big bank cash deposits while emptying the ecosphere of health is as evil as building the economy with dead bodies from Covid 19. The full potential of the U.S. economy cannot be reached with anachronistic, unsustainable anti-environmental economic policies that are simply stupid.


 There may be more reasons for the apparent indifference of President Trump to the great numbers of American Covid 19 deaths. Many of those dying of Covid 19 are the weak and vulnerable, black, old and previously ill; culling them would save insurance corporations a great amount of money in the long run, especially with many signed on to Obamacare,  as they would save years or decades of paying for expensive health coverage. Wall Street as well as the Communist Chinese Party fairly may be included in the pool of persons of interests in the ongoing saga of who potentially benefits from loosing a pandemic upon the world.

The Greatest Scythe of Americans; Trump or Hitler?

 The Second World War with Adolph Hitler’s leadership scythed the lives of about a quarter of a million Americans over four years. That rate of death of U.S. soldiers at war was somewhat over 60-70 thousand per year. In just one year under President Trump’s leadership the Covid 19 death toll of Americans has nearly equaled that of the entirety of the Second World War.

 President Trump’s leadership during the Covid 19 era was lackadaisical; he seemed entirely incapable of walking and chewing gum at the same time with a skill that could have reduced the infection rate and kept the economy open together. Therefore he may not be a mass murderer as great as Hitler, simply a Chamberlain sort of enabler of the encroachment of evil. Antifah as Covid era riot leaders helped the spread of Covid as did the Black Lives Matter movement. 

The President made much noise concerning the riots yet did not act decisively as would have Abraham Lincoln to close the riots down declaring martial laws and sending in the 101st Airborne. (as did L.B.J. and Ike use the 101st to quell scoflaws. When riots and looting occurred over night in Philadelphia and Wal-Mart was being sacked the looters were not maintaining safe social distancing requisite to control the spread. Presently about 80,000 Americans are infected each day and the death rate is somewhere around 1 or 2%.

 

Resident Trump’s desire to plunder the natural resources of the nation is greater than his will to stop the Covid 19 scythe- the former requires nothing intellectually challenging to accomplish and enriches select global financial interests. Christians might wish to consider too much support for the leader managing the virus that may take more than 300,000 American lives when a more intelligent policy might have held the total to 50,000 or fewer. The Italian Dictator Mussolini might have found a few thousand avoidable deaths nothing more than a bump in the road on his race to power and prosperity. In some respects President Trump has shown a similar callousness concerning Covid 19 deaths in his half-hearted leadership.

 The election next week is a Hobson’s choice between the Democrat’s leader with dubious financial conflicts of interest with Ukraine that stimulated the rise of renewed cold war with Russia, commercial advantage with China and lawlessness in Mexico, a Democrat Party with an agenda of immoral policies, and an arrogant billionaire with a belief he can make America great- perhaps by raising the greatest (Muhammad Ali) from the dead, cutting taxes on the rich, gutting the ecosystem for short-term proplits. The President’s draft and tax evasion, marginally legal, and problems with women equal to that of Bill Clinton if not greater, were somewhat eclipsed by the four years of false narrative by Democrats concerning his secret support from Russia that did not at any rate seem greater than the Clinton’s foundational relationships with Russian oligarchs.

 If Vice President Biden wins the election and serves four years before very likely retiring and not seeking re-election and Republicans keep control of the Senate that may be the best-case scenario for muddling through the next four years. The 2024 election would then be the main pivot to determine the nation’s future status concerning secure borders, international relations, health care for all Americans including those too poor to afford Medicare Part B in old age and conservation of the integrity of the government of the United States.

Invasive Terrorism of the Corporate Rich

 Civil rights in the United States are in decline. The rich of Yale affiliation and other elite institutions are part of the cause of that. Rich corporations and media lackeys serving them transgress civil rights boundaries whenever they can through innumerable high tech means including Big Data/mining trampling over the 1st and 4th amendments as if they were valid only for-themselves.

 In my opinion organized civil rights violations by the rich comprise terrorism or at least sedition. Civil rights in the United States are fundamentally properties of boundaries for individuals that secure the individuals’ right to go about his or her life without interference, hindrance or sabotage economically and personally. In a nation based on self-help free enterprise the freedom to act in the market without one’s equal rights being subverted is essential if individuals are to have any sort of humane life style.

 Anyone can violate civil rights of course, it is just that the rich have an easier time of it organizing themselves to exploit their fellow citizens to gain that felony edge- the advantage over others that is too sweet for the corrupt to resist. They may even develop an economic philosophy that disingenuously claims what they are doing is necessary in order for capitalism to survive and that resistance is leftist and socialist.

 There are millions of Americans that have no regard for civil rights nor understanding of what those are. They are happy living in ad hoc collective social behavior milieus. For them civil rights may mean race rights or special  class rights of empowerment yet nothing like what they are; boundaries delimiting social behavior for every citizen and resident that stop anyone from victimizing them, including the state, with the exception of criminals.

 In the context of temporal life civil rights are easily violated and the violations travel down the stream of history forgotten or unnoticed to commonly, by the people of the day caught up in their own concerns. It is important though to secure civil rights boundaries against gross violation by the rich and privileged that can use information to exploit Americans and make life more difficult for them, because they can.

My late father was a four year vet of the Second World War. I was on active duty in combat arms when the Soviets withdrew a quarter million soldiers from East Germany. That was a Velvet era revolution and there isn't anything wrong with peace and prosperity. Participation in a free market should be supported for all Americans including veterans. The principles of free speech and free business participation a prosperous green free market with regulations shaping development toward green peace should never be impinged. No one should be excluded from the participating in the free market because a load of wise-guys with wealth amuse themselves poisoning the well.

 Millionaires and billionaires often want to tilt the economic field to their advantage. They can become like a black hole warping space time so all economic profit and political power flows their way. Exploiting information is one of the methods they can use. Information is power. It can be censored, data-mined or marginalized with equal opportunity to repress civil rights to go about one’s economic affairs without interference by the rich corporate world. When one has achieved wealth- millions or billions, one should watch one’s mouth and violations of the civil rights of the poor and middle class that aren’t cinched and actually need to improve or at least sustain basic economic vital interests. There may be sports millionaires that are barely literate of course, yet they are an exception and are showpieces to provide cover for the more calculating rich. Entertainment rich comprise just 5% of the top 1% of income earners in the United States, and they can be swells for-themselves working against the interests of the 99% promoting a wealth of unedifying trash.

Dendrites’ Cluttered in the Eco-brain (poem)

Top-down places are nodes
complex constructions strung together
clutters to cancel culture
first would be last
the last first following
each  clever, historical jumble
of lettered streets rumbling
boom boxed buildings
exhausted constraints
those straight and narrow lanes
fettered Heraclitan refrains
coursing unsustainable rivers of cars
passed each moment
beneath the stars
like that World War Two brawl
D-Day like today never called
tomorrow or yesterday’s impressionist compresence
changed around the edge
resembling degrees of difference 



new and old life temporized
so bold drivers pause
at the ledge of the past
waiting in idle mode, fast
connected interstate dendrites
oiled autos break an eco-brain’s gray matter
transitioning to necropsistic tunnel vision
encroaching evolution
painless shelf networks
synaptic Warholian dream dreams
sign the times in one place
a self-determined human race
designing undesigned
incomplete entropic chaos
pipes flow with creditopia
gas leaks in the dendrites
cluttered eco-brain decay
reflect beautiful sunrises and sets
burning the eco-brain green flames.

James Lovelock created the Gaia hypothesis that the ecosphere of the planet is semi-sentient at least so far as to comprise S/R (stimulus-response) loops. Could human society be the brain of the planet with cities acting like neurons and freeways and roads as dendrites and axons? If humanity is stupid and poisons the gray matter of the ecobrain killing off the ecosphere and running clutter through it, can intelligence be improved so the brain is smarter keeping the ecosphere healthy?
