N.O.A.A. named to Flood Over Belief in God?

 The National Oceanic  And  Atmospheric organization isn’t at all Christian or Jewish and has obviously borrowed or expropriated an important Christian/Jewish name for itself to disrespect it, expropriate it and obfuscate the spiritual importance. It is the federal equivalent of the Washington Redskins or Cleveland Indians names that were offensive symbols to actual Amer-Indians. N.O.A.A. is a godless organization of smug scientific atheist swells too happy to disrespect private American citizens of faith when they can. N.O.A.A. claims to administer oceans and atmosphere; it does a bad job of managing fish in Alaska. I haven’t seen a fish of moderate or large size jump from saltwater since 2000. Fish catches are down or canceled all over because N.O.A.A. stinks at fish administration and probably puts the blame on some other organization managing ocean resources. Sea lions and killer whales have also been bitten by bad animal administration. Select bird species are dwindling under bad N.O.A.A. administration. Canadian wildfire smoke drifts into Alaska occasionally- does N.O.A.A. administer that? N.O.A.A. local weather forecast broadcasts have been reduced to just one day ahead of time; an inadequate quant for planning trips over-the-water for supplies. The forecast wind direction and speed is often wrong and sometimes opposite. Before growing to become swells N.O.A.A. accuracy was better and local weather prediction made five days in advance; a minimal quantity for reasonable travel planning.

 Under N.O.A.A. administration the polar ice caps are shrinking. N.O.A.A. should be folded up and its tasks given unto other government agencies and outsourced to private contractors.  A more objective, impartial and residual moral government agency like N.A.S.A. could do a better job comparing and contrasting Earth conditions with those of other planets; exoplanets have atmospheres and oceans too. N.A.S.A. could hire new companies like Ocean Z or Atmosphere Z to surveil oceans and atmosphere faster, cheaper and better than N.O.A.A.  An annual list of states and point sources of pollution could be published with quantitative in-death analysis followed up with suggestion for practical remedies for each insult to oceans and atmosphere. Federal funds could be prioritized to go to states with improvements in reducing insults to oceans and atmosphere .

 N.O.A.A. should be renamed Democrat Fascist Obnoxious Swells in recognition of their fine pay and benefits and federal support enabling them to tramp on poor Americans that can’t afford to have a decent standard of living in the U.S.A. ,or have the resources to move abroad with full retirement deposits like N.O.A.A. swells retiring with loot to Central America or Europe. N.O.A.A. does a terrible job of administering atmosphere; global greenhouse gases-  pollution from automobiles make bike riding without breathing exhaust challenging. Have a lungful of fossil fuel exhaust N.O.A.A.!

 After being renamed D.F.O.S. former N.O.A.A. employees should hitch rides with the Coast Guard as wards of coastal sailors that might need more work providing adult supervision to D.F.O.S.  D.F.O.S. personnel should receive pay cuts along with select federal personnel sufficient to provide a minimum basic income to all Americans living on fewer than $10,000 annually. A direct transfer of $3000 from each federal worker to a poor Americans would be appropriate. IF D.F.O.S .persons could increase fishing quality in U.S. waters tenfold from 2022 stats they should be entitled to a pay bonus of $25 each.

 God may not favor N.O.A.A. In fact N.O.A.A. tends to usurp the role of the almighty in Genesis to issue warnings about global sea level rises and new floods.  Everyone knows global warming and ice melting can raise the sea level. N.O.A.A. should not be so swell to believe the nation might not be better without it. If they need to expropriate Biblical names for  nefarious social conditioning purposes they might consider taking the name of Jehovah so He might slap them down as unsaved bad animals swollen with hubris. Government oppression of free speech and mockery of private citizens was commensurate with ideologues of the former Soviet Union. N.O.A.A. workers are the closest thing the nation has to an elite communist party collective. They ought to stay out of private affairs so free enterprise efforts can occur for people beside the rich.

 N.O.A.A. seems disliked a covert/overt mooning of the public  putting it over America and the world. It could be the tip of the spear of Democrats partnership with an ultra rich agenda entailing secret plans for a New World Order. That could be a Democrat elitist /N.O.A.A. intention to let itself and rich insiders survive  global doom of everyone comparable to the flood that killed the lost, first human civilization perhaps on the shore of the Persian Gulf.

 When global warming and mass extinction make life for humans on Earth untenable N.O.A.A. and its controllers may be aloof survivors with full pay and benefits on special ships- perhaps space ships, to outlast the apocalypse and return to resettle the Earth when everyone else is gone. N.O.A.A. can haul in a fortune while letting the atmosphere and oceans go to hell with plausible deniability, wringing their hands about the sad tragic fate of humanity during the last days. Alternatively, as a secular atheist clave of cold blooded reptiles, N.O.A.A. may lead the way to national assurance that no flesh will survive a new apocalypse.  The role reversal of Noah to God will be complete, except that instead of being God, N.O.A.A. evolves to Satan.

 

Maybe another Cash for Clunkers Presidential Race in 2024

 The U.S. electorate should pick a President the way George Steinbrenner picked players for the Yankees. He always got the best available. When a player isn’t at the top of his game with great ideas vote him or her out of office directly. The nation needs a succession of intelligent Presidents with great new and innovative ecological economic and technological development ideas who can liberate the poor, and secure democracy against rich international corporatists more concerned with hiding cash offshore and relocating blue and white collar jobs to offshore locations with the cheapest quality workforce and low taxes available. Presidential selection should be regarded as a team relay with the fastest, brightest Americans chosen from any field rather than career bureaucrats that have evolved their way to the top by outliving rivals.

 The President of the United States is one of the few most powerful leaders on Earth and should act with a mind toward benefiting America first and foreign nations too. The President should be a peacemaker though carrying a big stick for armed neutrality. The President should seek to bring the second and third world through ecological economic innovation that can develop a better standard of living without harming the ecosphere. There are many responsibilities for quality leadership sadly lacking in 4 out of 5 Presidents that made it to office recently.

 Equal protection of the law is the fundamental element of the U.S. spirit in partnership with freedom for individual self-determination. Blood lines of marriage are a fundamental and indispensable intrinsic nature of families and individuals.  Homosexual marriage breaks that up and undermines the freedom of individuals, and of individual security when family bloodlines and dissipated and corporate power to rule and control society generally rises. Ubiquitous surveillance and lives packaged and marketed for consumption in an amoral, generic social environment entails solid threats to human culture in an overpopulated world.  Singapore recently passed a more reasonable approach in banning homosexual marriage while decriminalizing homosexuality that conserves the integrity of mass culture, family bloodlines and respect for human beings that the U.S. Supreme Court flunked. Every individual in a free, democratic society deserves personal security and equal protection of the law. When human culture is broken and people are regarded as blobs of biomass of no meaningful gender differentiation in an amoral, atheist subjectivity to the rich as resources to be allocated or phased out for the benefit of elites that will inherit the Earth, the President should be one to correct that egression and set the nation on a strait rather than crooked path.

Democrats constructing Perfect Economic Storm

 The United States economy is heavily invested in foreign production; especially in Asia.  China’s emergence after the Cold War 1.0 into being a major trading partner of the United States was fomented by its vast market demographics, low labor costs for productivity and people culturally trained first in Confucian then Maoist ethics evolving toward mixed capitalism and enterprise that drew western investors. China in the 1990s was an emerging global economic power eager to throw off the shackles of poverty that had kept it in a second or even third world status decades before. Democrat policies to develop enmity over Taiwan and Chinese support for Russia’s position regarding the west and Ukraine in particular are a key element of the Democrat Party’s construction of the perfect economic and environmental storm that may lead ahead to depression.

 Sure it is good occasionally to enjoy irrational exuberance and optimism in order not to walk into self-fulfilling prophecies to malaise and bankruptcy. Optimism as a construction tool for do-it-yourselfers of any scale need be coupled with actualizable plans and work. Trusting in economic optimism for itself, or about good weather in disregard of tornado warnings, hurricane storm tracking and quantitative political and financial analysis is political malpractice when it’s the President moving down the wrong path like a horse wearing blinders. Financing an avoidable war with Russia is the U.S. leaping morons on fire into the troubles of the old world. War was second nature to Europeans and even Asians; the United States should not easily be drawn into those lunatic conflicts when possible; much less finance them. The only reason Europeans including Brits were less warlike since 1945 is WW II was a block buster and the rise of nuclear weapons discouraged precipitate engagement in new conflicts. The United States took the lead for the west in waging wars instead of finding solutions in its nuclear empowerment era. Today most people on Earth probably regard the U.S.A. as the most active belligerent nation on Earth pro war, though some conflicts were hard to avoid. Leadership to better ways is required for good, rather than evil, political leadership. The United States as an emerging godless, atheist power that doesn’t know the difference between good and evil except for purposes of partisan rhetoric may have trouble finding Christian leadership in Eurasia that would have good sense and recalcitrance to engage in mass conflicts.

 In the past, the U.S. Government has bailed out major financial and auto manufacturing establishments that failed financially; that may not be possible with large scale failures of U.S. businesses invested in China. There is also a temptation for U.S. business to sever ties with U.S. employees and simply move operations entirely to China; the workers are paid far less than American financial sector and service workers and exports to the United States could continue. Apple is such a possible corporation that could profit handsomely if it fired its U.S. staff and decided to just hire Chinese workers and American workers willing to relocate to China. When force and stress is applied across the board to U.S. businesses because of recession caused by Democrat Party and media policies/implementation corporate leaders are compelled to make hard choices (maybe to move) that they wouldn’t otherwise. Gradual evolution might have continued and economic exodus never have occurred. If Pharaoh had liberated the Jews they might not have needed to escape captivity with divine help and could have developed the Egyptian economy as well as that of Israel..

 The American economy may be mostly financial related and service workers today. It probably produces less material goods as a percentage of its economy in comparison to China and other nations than it has ever before. Many of those financial sector jobs as well as U.S. headquarters employment for businesses that produce in China could be lost to China and elsewhere in a second wave of jobs leaving the United States that were in the first wave mostly manufacturing. No amount of unskilled illegal aliens entering the United States, that mostly don’t pay taxes at any rate, will replace those better paying financial sector jobs lost to foreign competition. Blue collars lost offshore were the first wave, the second wave will be the loss of white collar jobs.

 It is ironic that Democrat Party policy to support foreign wars indirectly and to leave wars directly if involved personally has yet to quit support for Ukraine when it would be in the interests of the U.S.A. to do so. Russia may have realized that it erred in trusting the west at all when it built the Nordstrom gas pipeline to Europe instead of China and it probably is building a pipeline to the more stable and reliable for growth prospects Chinese economy or plans to. In failing to recognize Russian interests in Ukraine that are historically valid in spite of being victimized by one of the greatest carpet-bagging land-grab swindles in human history perpetrated in 1994 by President Clinton Democrats have invested in building a lasting rift with Russia and thereby forcing it to become China’s perfect natural resource supplier and perhaps partner in defending Asia against Western encroachment and expansion eastward.

 Russia has been converted into a insulator and backstop for China against flanking by Wall Street from the East. India with its large population is working with Russia too. Russia may become a midway for trade and business between China and India. Roads and pipelines may develop, especially if Russia’s Muslim population finds itself able to coordinate friendly trade relations with corridors crisscrossing shared borders. The United States is somewhat irrelevant in that scenario except as a military threat.

 Democrat have partnered with Wall Street to compel immoral choices upon the nation.  It was better to take a Singaporean approach to homosexual marriage than the Obama-Roberts, for Singapore recognizes the cultural values of others rather than just one side preferred by wealthy elitists. Democrat assumptions that the core of the U.S.A. will remain a constant while they as globalists can compel global culture to take up Democrat Party values are wrong.  When corporate wealth awakens to the India-China market and relocates its wealth abroad including intellectual capital, in pursuit of profit; while the U.S. economy falters and millions of poorly educated workers relocate here, and while public debt increases the U.S.A. will still have a vast nuclear arsenal and modern military. The world will not be a safer place divided as global warming changes accelerate and myopic politicians strive for a better standard of living based on conventional economics and dwindling natural resources for their patrons.

 In dividing the world economy in order to try to force conquest of Russia’s valid historical claims to Ukraine the Democrat Party has imperiled the global economy at a time when it should be providing leadership to transition to sustainable ecological economic policy instead of classical economics that have existed since the Industrial Revolution. Russia did invade Ukraine, yet they already owned it in a sense.  Russia may have been like an absent vineyard owner returning to throw out predators that had killed his caretaking son and claimed the breadbasket and vineyard of Russia for-themselves. The Democrat Party never gave Russia any chance to use legal remedies as alternatives to war since the Clinton-Yeltsin paper took Ukraine away from weakened, vulnerable Russia in 1994. The Democrat Party has substituted hatred of Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump for economic reason. Besides failing to take adequate steps to halt the ongoing mass extinction that may lead to the end of human life too, they are f’ing up the classical economy and setting the nation on course for recession, depression or break up.

 The United States has millions of boomers leaving the economy forever and drawing on public retirement payments. Not all want to retire either. Some were put out of work by Covid closures and others are too poor not to need to work into their 70s. Obamacare did nothing for retirees; if one gets the minimum $500 social security check they would still need to pay at least $200 to $250 for Medicare plan B medical coverage. Realistically if Americans have fewer than $15,000 annually to live on full Medicare benefits should be free. Dividing the global economy and throwing the United States into recession will just make it that much harder for older Americans to get work in an economy that would rather hire young illegal aliens and discriminates against the elderly anyway.

 The U.S. government so mangled up by Democrats may not be able to bail out failed U.S. business not big enough to not be allowed to fail. The big companies can simply relocate to Asia and let the United States enter a lasting slump. Senior benefits could be reduced or lost entirely if there is war domestically after a time of chaos. Public education may collapse; government may be reduced to minimal infrastructure vital services costing just a fraction of the present.

 Without much credibility the dollar may not be trusted enough to allow full faith and credit in doubling the public debt to bail out the economy with a flood of Keynesian permanent priming. Basically there isn’t a way to make stupidity work efficiently, and new methods and styles need be developed to create a healthy national economy and ecosphere.

Transpuckic Journalists Serve Mass Extinction

 Contemporary broadcast journalism in the United States evolved from neutral observer presentations of the 1960s and 70s to adversarial journalism where-imp journalists interviewed and pieced together stories to prove points of narratives with transpuckic broadcast shots on the goal of reinforcing and advancing power to benefit special interests. Transpucktional reporting is adversarial, builds narratives with pieces of truth that support semi-fiction narratives, omitting exculpatory counter-tangential facts and other materials non-supportive of preferred narrative themes.

 Some broadcast organizations have solid bias toward evolving narratives appealing to viewers or listeners demographically. Female reporters spin stories and narratives toward evolution of female power. Black, Latino and homosexual reporters spin stories and narratives toward evolving same race and perversion political and social power. One of the primary troubles with that sort of journalistic approach is the harm that it does to general social relations in polarizing the polity. Ukraine’s government said that if you support Russia or Putin then you can’t go on vacation in Europe. I hate it when foreign politicians make threatening statements to the world at large including Americans. Puppet governments of the uber rich need media support to force support for their goals.

 Americans that have seen European Vacation and have given thought to visiting Europe might want to rethink that. Besides being too expensive, if they have written contrary to the will of the Ukraine government they would need to look under their rental cars for plastic explosives that Ukrainian operatives might have planted. Ukraine’s harm to democracy is matched only be the stupidity of Speaker Pelosi and other Democrats that have done everything they can to antagonize China and push it toward the Russian side of potential nuclear war.  I too have supported Taiwan’s independence. Steady moral and military support plus business was good enough; walk quietly and carry a big stick was all that was needed to de frappe a Chinese invasion. The Von Pelosi in-your-face Nancy-on-scene approach was simply stupid and harmful to trade and national security. President Trump was at least pragmatic and sane on foreign affairs unlike Democrats. Democrats are posers with the belief that exhibitionism, aggression and deceit are the only virtues.

 Ukraine’s mafia-government hatred of pluralistic free speech is shared by the U.S. Democrat Party, select social media goons and journalist fellow traveler opponents of free expression of political and historical ideas/interpretations other than their own collective screeds. It is disgusting that the U.S. Government funds Ukraine’s effort to consolidate President Von Clinton’s theft of Soviet-Russian land, nuclear power plants and ports, though understandable given Democrat disbelief in morality or truth besides personal proprietary goals in evolution for-itself.

 The Democrat Party since President Bill snuffed every avenue to peace and prosperity with Russia that it could find. Russia was left with no legal remedies to the greatest land swindle of modern times. War is the logic of kings, and democracy too. When reason fails all around, when international truth is defined by elites for-themselves through their media and puppets rule western governments, war is inevitable if anyone has the capacity to resist. Instead of a new era of environmental economics the Democrat party funds war, deaths and the pollution it brings. It would have been, and still is, feasible to end the conflict with a settlement in place. If the U.S. Government would work for that goal it is improbable that Ukraine would continue the war long or that Europe would wage a proxy war against Russia without American support.

 A polarized polity has constituents defending their own goals against adversarial shots on goal by opponents. Personal defenses and party defenses to survive hostile transpuckic reporting set abstract goals like avoiding the sixth mass extinction or at least surviving it to the back. People focus on worthless, avoidable, immediate, clear and present hostile narrative use-truths from transpucktional media wing persons of interest at the forefront of politics instead. One cannot claim that Democratic party policy is intelligent. While they haven’t even learned what ecological economics are or how the U.S. economy should transition to it they are also f’ing up the classical economy and building recession. It seems as if they are doing everything they possibly can to create recession and even crash the U.S. economy into depression as if it were a preferred alternative to good reason. Normal global relations including those with Russia and China need be restored directly if perfect storms of Democrat economic and environmental stupidities are to be de frapped.

 Mass public communications can be very influential and concerning. When the broadcast media is biased and slanted toward political, economic or power goals and spins speech demotic to influence the masses corruption ensues. In prior eras public corruption denying equal protection of the law to targeted individuals or groups wasn’t uncommon. Corruption social power by enjoyed by ruling classes was as common as air. If the broadcast media financed by government and corporate sponsors joins with traditional corrupt practices it may be felt that society will survive it and continue rambling on as it has always with some rough spots for small minorities. Corruption however can eclipse good politics and reforms with society and the electorate being concerned instead with public issues on the front burner created largely by interests of the corrupt. It is challenging to believe that good public political opinion to change the world economy to an ecologically sustainable one could ever develop with the polarized, divisive politics reinforced by broadcast media corruption. Unlike in times past when society and human progress could endure and advance in spite of corruption, in the present configuration civilization may fail to after a century more or less. Public corruption rots the fate of humanity stifling individual enterprise, free will and enlightenment of democracy.

 The sixth mass extinction may be developing even now. It could be closer than most think. Great economic transition of method to ecospheric economic policy is called for those interested in keeping robust human life on Earth. Reporting on the sixth mass extinction by transpucktional journalists contains adverse narrative spin destroying political unification requisites for developing public political will to avoid extirpation of human society. Transpucktionalists may win the narrative and lose the war for the survival of human life on Earth.

Book ends justify the means of Demo plot construction?

 The end of a book; the conclusion, can justify a lot of plot twists when it’s good enough. Fiction narratives and perhaps Democrat party narratives with the logger’s flummery sending lumber racing downhill in water chutes like bobsleds have linear and simple force with nothing to the sides. Novels nearly never have unintended consequences such as characters being deleted from other books as the reader moves along a plot’s time line from the alpha of page one to the omega point of the last paragraph. In the real world actions and structured special designs implemented en mass or even in isolation from the mainstream may develop innumerable unintended effects as the plot develops.

 Plot does have a somewhat dangerous connotation these days. Perhaps that's useful to authors trying to discover the art of selling books, less so for the “right wing extremist” groups that are a bete noir for NPR and other left-wing corporatist broadcast outfits. The Democrat Party appears to have a Ludlum title progressive aggressive agenda of forcing things their way as standard practice. The F.B.I. legal break in to former President Trump’s Florida club paradise to take back classified materials removed from the Executive Branch while he was in office was the most recent blatant example of the use of maximum force where legally possible. One can imagine federal officers busting into the homes of Thomas Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln with a warrant to seize materials when they were out of office; that would likely have caused quite a stir.

 Unfortunately a man was killed by law enforcement officers after trying to attack F.B.I. personnel. He was very upset with the breach of respect for former President Trump. The deceased took the idea of direct action too seriously; he thought he could start a war against Democrats most likely as the tip of the spear sacrificing his life. Any sort of revolutionary war against the U.S. military is completely ludicrous without the use of biological weapons of mass destruction- and that is an extreme case of calling friendly fire down upon one’s own position to end the swarm of opposition forces overrunning one’s position. Modern weapons used even by infantry are far better than a generation ago and civilians simply haven’t the stuff to resist violently even in well organized militias.

 President Biden seems to be a very dangerous man because of his position and lack of awareness of the harm to American economic and social interests that the Democrat Party polices bring. He is an insider Senator sine qua non who pursued the highest elected office for decades and finally got it after an apprenticeship with Barrack Hussein Obama. He has completed the Democrat’s foundational infrastructure for decades of conflict and enmity with two of the three largest nuclear weapons powers on Earth.

 With Germany seeking to build a natural gas pipeline from Portugal to replace the Nordstrom pipeline from Russia the plot can be inferred to be intended to last for a generation. That may increase natural gas costs a little in the U.S.A. and build a political wall between the west and the east of Eurasia. Wall Street’s investing opportunities will be reduced while Democrats build an isolationist wall between East and West. National independence is valuable; blocking free trade with sanctions is not

 A full range of economic and environmental lost potential might be remedied with a new Republican-led Congress until a Republican President can be elected to find a way to end the Ukraine conflict and fully restore relations with Russia and China. A divided world isn’t a good plot at this point on history as demographic, environmental and resource challenges face everyone on Earth. When one is digging a hole contra to public interests, it is said the first thing one should do is to stop digging.

 Epistemology is a philosophical field inquiring into knowledge and how it occurs. Maybe subjective knowledge is comparable to computer flash memory. One interesting thing is that even though being is self-aware with knowledge the kernels of data one has, develops or experiences, knowledge is also awareness of self-awareness. The entire experience of knowledge is phenomenal apparently. It disappears like a beautiful sunset and August harvest moon deserving capture in a jejune poem hyperbolizing the glories of August making one wistful in January for those dog days. Bad and maladroit U.S. politics are phenomenal though they are concatenated serial praxis of ad hoc Democrat Party agenda and corporatize leadership. Domestic political thought need be more than a kid’s rhyme adaptation for adults where Democrat censors of social media live by the code; ‘Fe Fi Fo Flum I spell the blood of a Republican; be they alive or be they dead I’ll grind their bones and paint them red.”

Pres Biden hints Democrats may have weather control in the future

 POTUS replied to a press question in Kentucky that the government can do something to recover from weather damage even if it can’t control the weather now. The inference is that Democrats may be able to control the weather in the foreseeable future. After that maybe controlling the tides is next on the party agenda. I believe the irrational exuberance of the Democrat party over passage of the biggest bill in decades or something to that effect said Senator Schumer, is evident.

 In the 2020 Democrat Presidential primaries global warming response was a big topic that elicited plans from all the on-stage candidates. The most expensive ran north of 50 trillion dollars and the cheapest was Joe Biden’s 3.5 trillion dollar plan. The great ‘Inflation Reduction Doublespeak Bill” allocates about 350 billion to slow global warming a little. That is 1/10^th of the cost of the most minimal plan; not exactly a success.

 My belief is that intelligent regulations and laws could eliminate greenhouse gassing, habitat degradation and mass species extinctions faster and better than any spending bill the Congress might pass. Those bills are invariably loaded with pork and are poorly planned to the extent of being ineffective at improving the ecosphere. Jacque Cousteau and James Lovelock each expressed the opinion that mankind has about 200 years of a livable planet remaining. I believe the ballpark figure now is about 170 years. Humans are just over-consuming and overusing natural resources with inefficient and ecospherically mal-adapted technology.

 Democrats have managed to restore the Cold War version 1.0 to a full 2.0 status. Sending ten billion to the Ukraine government for weapons to kill Russians might have some unintended negative consequences for the U.S.A., yet like the global warming problem, government leadership tends to ignore the challenges and even increase the potential scale of disaster. Maybe it’s premature in regard to the Democrat’s new world order schedule to think about how normal relations could be restored with Russia and China, yet I will indulge that point a little.

 Democrats have piled on every sanction and penalty they could imagine upon Russia. That will make it difficult to end conflict with Russia or to end sanctions short of some kind of complete surrender by Russia even though the U.S.A. and N.A.T.O. aren’t technically at war with them (though Democrats might wish they could be).  If the U.S. weapons can kill so many Russian soldiers that the Russian military withdraws to areas the United States government considers their legitimate reservation it could not end the sanctions without that Russian surrender; if it did that would be like ending sanctions on Saddam Hussein after General Schwarzkopf and the military coalition drove the Iraqi military out of Kuwait and back to Iraq. So long as Russia is regard as belligerent and on the wrong side of the Queer Curtain (like the Iron Curtain except lavender on the U.S.-N.A.T.O. side and red on the Russian peace couldn’t be assured. Maybe it would evolve like the DMZ dividing the two states of Korea and the western forces would stand ready to war against the Eastern forces for a half century or more.

 I believe intelligent people tend to see more and deeper than people less intellectually gifted. It may also be that people believe their own intellect is fine and they understand things as they are. Even the most intelligent may be wrong- Einstein for example believed his cosmological constant was a blunder. Maybe it’s a variable; if it was less a few billion years ago than it is now it might have accelerated some-space on the way to terminal velocity. Democrats seem content that their attitude toward Russia and Ukraine is intelligent and the best outlook. They also minimize or ignore dire possible consequences to global security as a result of the war. Too often they declare they are defending another democracy when factually the U.S.A. has evolved into plutocracy with nominal democracy. Wealth has concentrated, the broadcast media became special interest social fascists fanning racial politics and Democrats legislate special interest bills with one-party votes and a majority of one in the Senate. Neither party seems interested in building a better world that eliminates poverty in the U.S.A. first and then that of the world while returning the environment to health.

  With free enterprise and limits to capitalism good legislation can move in the direction of a healthy world. God told Jeremiah that everyone knows Him and they simply forget who he is. Democrats not only lose reverence for God or even awareness of Him, they also forget about campaign promises to pass substantial legislation to slow or reverse global warming instead dumping ecospheric tokenism into their synthetic fascist information media to prop up November re-election trimes. Alaska’s next election later in August has weighted candidates where one is supposed to rank choices, as if any substitute product was acceptable to one a voter believes best. If federal elections had ranked choices indicating that just insiders are ranked and eligible  they would need negative ranking choices (less than zero) to realistically capture voter sentiment.

Earth Heating/Cooling for Desert Homes

 The Earth is constant regarding temperature. Not far below the surface the temperature remains the same regardless of extremes caused by climate change. Desert homes built in the exuberance era of Hoover Dam's online status that rely entirely on electricity for comfortable heating cooling highlight human designing flaws in adapting to the Terran ecosphere. Rational politics would adapt to the change and reduce desert heating costs by at least half.

 There may always be more demand for power than can be produced or that is necessary for heating and cooling of well designed structures. Costs rise with demand always shuffling out the poor from new deals. Las Vegas could adapt to increased global heating by requiring some ordinance that new homes be at least 50% cooled from passive Earth technology that bring down high temperatures and bring up cold with little electrical use. Retrofitting structures should also be considered, and public spaces that don't need electricity to stay within a survivable range should be considered for emergency preparedness.

California Governor's Attack on U.S. Constitution

 California’s Governor Newsom signed in to law a bill allowing citizens to sue other citizens for exercising their constitutional right to keep and bare arms. He modeled the bill on a Texas law allowing citizens to sue abortion providers. Apparently he doesn’t know the founders did not put a constitutional right to abortion in the original document or amendments thereafter. Letting citizens sue citizens for exercising constitutionally protected rights is a direct attack on the constitution of the United States. The Newsom anti-build a gun kit law sets a precedent for liberal lawsuits on every constitutionally protected right. The Newsome model would let a globe of lawsuits contradicting constitutional rights like the right of women to vote and freedom from slavery.

For some reason Democrats don’t seem to comprehend the ramifications of their approach to gerrymandering constitutional liberties. For instant gratification Democrats make very dangerous attacks on the pillars U.S. government legislative rules, and constitutional rights in addition to unstatesmanlike foreign policy. At least the nation can be confident that Democrat Party leadership will continue to seem to be disingenuous or indolent and never get an advanced new energy infrastructure built that creates hydrogen gas from electrolysis to make a liquid hydrogen cooled super-conducting electrical grid that synergizes greenhouse gas reduction and clean energy independence.

Bad politics and daft politicians are an empirical threat rather than an existential one. The difference is this; existential viewpoints are individual rather than common or empirical. What is an existential threat to one person may be beneficence to another. An empirical threat is a pervasive threat to all within a realm. That kind of threat usually arrives from space, from deep in the Earth, or from Washington D.C.

 

 

Irrational Exuberance, Environment and Inductive Puzzles

 Experiencing the climate this year in S.E. Alaska where July so far was cool and inclement it occurred to me that indoor, thermostat regulated lifestyles like those of average Americans detach humans from environmental sensitivity. I’ve spent decades in unheated shelters including Alaska, sometimes sleeping on the ground where I used ground temperature and insulating blankets to keep a gallon of water from freezing solid when the air temperature was zero Fahrenheit, so I am fairly sensitive to climate.

The effects of indoor, thermostat regulated lifestyles are fairly new in the course of human history. A couple of centuries ago people in the north were lucky to have a wood stove for cold winters and built their homes around the wood stove. Air conditioning didn’t exist much before electricity when the Gulf coast was populated by mosquitoes and outlaws. People worked hard to separate themselves from nature to a certain extent; they liked bright things, glitz and shiny and that desire to be relieved from the common dark, dour, sometimes dank conditions of homes lit by candles and perhaps kerosene lamps increased along with the advance of technology. People were attracted to neon lights like bugs are to bug lights. Indoor living with climate controlled environments became common as did machines for transport and to relieve work. Humans to some extent tried to forget the external and very real world of nature and were unconcerned with managing its health. In places like the Willamette Valley of Oregon and Puget Sound of the state of Washington urban and suburban sprawl overtook exceedingly fertile farmlands that had arisen when the great northwestern forests were converted into lumber. An irrational exuberance had overtaken humanity of the first world and it was based on segregating nature and placing mankind into an artificial, bug free, trouble free world.

It is my belief that the irrational exuberance of living a lifetime in artificial environments has affected human psychology deeply. The bright lights and bling of the artificial has become the new normal and nature has become regarded as disreputable. Some associate nature with vermin and value its remaining ecospheric health only so far as to consider its monetary value if processed for market sale. The psychology of natural consumption inside the new nature of the artificial normalizes irrational exuberance. The addiction to a world of pastel colors, shiny objects, bright lights and machines has been joined with drugs, alcohol, tobacco and intoxicants of polluting and non-polluting kind so far as to make common human nature maladapted to experience subtle change of seasons effects directly on the senses, the varieties of darkness and light of winter months, and psychologically incapable of making serious remedies for gross natural habitat loss, mass species extinction and global warming.

In my opinion being aware of the problem is required for fixing those serious ecospheric, environmental challenges. It is probably impossible to get humanity to step back from the ecospheric ledge if it requires reducing consumption, so increasing efficiency through innovating new technological and environmental methods may be the most realistic way to proceed.

Politicians tend to be immersed in the general unnatural psychology of irrational exuberance and excess consumption. Americans buy some things just because they can and feel like it. They have disposable income that exceeds their basic needs for living. President Reagan was known as the great communicator. He was an optimist with a cheery disposition. Not only was he liked, he was trusted. President Reagan said that America’s best times were yet ahead. His optimism helped greatly to bring about the end of the Cold War 1.0. President Reagan had faith in God and that was honest. He too however personified the American greatness of consumption rather than environmentalism. The nation needs faith in God, environmental reformation and technological progress to move very far ahead in the way of progress. Blind allegiance to the politics of consumerism and a wrong understanding of Smith’s Wealth of Nations/Capitalism may deliver the U.S.A. to knock itself out crashing into an environmental limits wall.

I have written elsewhere on select approaches to take to make up with the nation and world’s ecosphere. The field of environmental economics is highly recommended. I would add here the observation that what is lacking in U.S. politics at the Federal level (actually quite a number of character items are lacking and in need of repair yet I will not digress) is creative thinking. Fixing the environment is a matter of solving inductive puzzles rather than deductive ones like crossword puzzles. Inductive puzzles bring one to see ways to put different technologies or tools together to make something to solve problems and challenges. From pieces in the world comprising everything that exists, one selects pieces to invent a puzzle  picture that solves the problem.

Audio News Media vs Text

 There is a stark contrast these days between news media with human audio and news reports in written text; the former is marinated in political spin and text, far less so. Television, radio and Internet video are saturated with human and speech synthesizer read news stories that usually have rave demotic spin slathered onto skeletal structures of news facts.  Hearing via the ears, Julius Caesar commented, is the most vulnerable sense. He would be aware if alive today that enemies with mass communication technology can do a lot of social harm. People can injure via the ears from across the globe. Brainwashing and political control may be engendered through audio with deceit and guile. Text is shorn of emotional and disinformative spin packed into audio inflections and warps of paradigmatic and syntagmatic axes. Audio readily serves as a communicable social disease of lies.

Text of course may be used to put out propaganda. The ability to consider text reports without emotional manipulation is much easier than for audio reports. One may for instance, compare audio to walking through a store checkout line with human checkers vs. one with a self-scanner-check out, do it yourself system. The human may use audio to spin even the weather while the do-it-yourself scanner should generally be silent and compliant.

Text has a syntagmatic and paradigmatic axis. Audio has those too, and one more; a phonological axis. The phonological axis can be used to corrupt syntagmatic and paradigmatic axes infusing each with duplicity and/or emotives.

It isn’t that automated systems with speech synthesizers cannot be used for audio spin; they can. The National Weather Service’s marine weather forecast radio usually applies some kind of controlling spin pronunciation onto regular words. One could pack emotion laden language into any speech synthesizer or insults from grocery auto check outs to automatic car driving systems. Electric powered self-driving car owners may want their vehicles to have a road rage program function built in to compensate for a wussy environmentalist reputation; who can say.

It is possible to compare text for objective content more easily than audio reports. If one watches the spin of Fox News vs. NBC or CNN via the Multi-news windows of cable TV the contrast can be notable sometimes. With text one can line up three reports on the same news item and sometimes see spin from the left, right and with luck, and objective, just the facts sort of item.

The Democrat Party seems to be permanently on vacation from objectivity and intellectually optimizing mass infrastructure designs for progress in a preference of anti-Trump and anti-Russia narratives forever. The hate Trump narrative is comparable to the Mary Jo Kopekne remarks that flowed through the conservative media about Sen. Ted Kennedy decades after the drowning; it is simply much more hateful, loud and of a scale Sen. Joe McCarthy would have appreciated.

I believe it is possible that the phenomenology of modern capitalism inducts socially destructive political dynamics to facilitate the concentration of wealth as a best-possible-wordline in-itself. The rich own the media and the political environment too. With the end of Cold War 1.0 political reorganizations were made to enable concentration of wealth. The rise of an American left was a concern. It is possible that the left were diverted to socially divisive issues as a way to take their focus off economics and the politics of economic equalization within a reasonable range income distribution. The same principle may apply to environmental reformation too; the rich may prefer gradual for-profit market responses to environmental challenges over comprehensive government led approaches in order to conserve increasing concentration of wealth. I believe the media, owned by the rich, reinforces the narrative of social issue divisions.
