A Billion New People in 12 Years-Zero Growth Eco-Economics Needed
With another billion people added to the world during 12 years (1999-2012) the concept of economic growth as a rational for improving the global standard of living seems prima facia unreasonable. Human population growth is greater than economic growth potential that is reliant upon environmental resource consumption. Corporate logic rarely is cognizant of environmental reason and logic in its blind quest for pure profits existentially. Corporate globalism must be controlled by national democracies pursuing the public good or an entropic magnification of the process of resource consumption in a finite world ecosystem will run amuck so far as to endanger the worlds 7 billion and growing people (as of 2012). Most of the world's corporate employees cannot see the woods for the trees and comprehend not the decline and fall of the global ecosphere as meaningful and pertinant to themselves.
With the third most populus nation on the Earth the United States should act as a responsible agent of conservative growth by securing its borders against illegal immigration, halting a piratical ethos of rabid consumption and growth through consumption of natural resources and sprawl of industry and industrial pollution to pristine offshore and northern regions of natural ecological purity
and though deliberations upon a no-growth economic policy that creates a steady state ecological economics niched within the rational, finite limits of planetary growth-if and when significant off-planet resources are developed then that economic criterion should also be niched within a sustainable relationship with environmental resources. Quality of life improvements without reliance upon mass increased consumption of non-renewable resources must be prioritized in national and global macro-and micro-economic planning.
The oxymoron of corporate social responsibility can be untangled like a marshmallow universal expansion making all roads straight in space-time. Corporations can advocate higher tax rates for the most rich, and increase retirement and health benefits for employees and retirees by contracting for their own medical staffing services and market investment advisers.
Corporations can choose to invest in ecologically benign business selection and increase spending on research and development. The Universe and the world business are expanding together. Corporations must increase public awareness of the laws of thermodynamics and promote awareness that non-renewable resources used in business expend net order and increase disorder and the opportunity costs for future generations is extreme.
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0QLQ/is_2007_August/ai_n19450453 ecological economics
The finite material resources of Earth both renewable and non-renewable are not generally recognized by much of the corporate world that seeks to exploit it instead. Cognizance of the ecological opportunity costs to society should become a motivating tactic of corporate boards that could seek to maximize optimal ecological economic benefits. Montana plans to let hunters kill a 100 or so wolves from a population of two or three hundred with 39 breeding pairs for sport. A stable population of at least 500 wolves is required for genetic diversity yet the in-breeding of neo=classical economic theory in the world today hates to let anything exist unexploited, untaxed or free and wild. If conservation and invention do not improve the desperate people of the world will find resource depletion effects causing increased survival challenges in a few decades and corporations should get responsible sooner instead of later or never.
Business corporations aren't non-profit. Neither in ecological economic responsibility nor in accountability to the people of the national democracy of the United States are corporations in the upper 50% range on the scorecard of good ideas and planning to be responsible. Rather, corporations pursue profit with disregard for externalities such as environment and democracy, justice or the question of the value of permitting high prices for gasoline. The U.S. Congress pursues daft policies like taxing windfall profits of oil corporations for themselves when they should be designing strategies to promote public economic development of nationally produced independent alternative energy and transportation strategies.
In the post cold war era the U.S. Government's budget has radically increased as the President with a kow-towing congress redistributed wealth to corporations supplying the peace-build efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan as an element of the war on terror. The terror of poverty created by vast federal deficit spending has yet to occur to the rich and C.E.O.‘s of multi-national corporations 'compensated' as high as a thousand times the average worker's pay for uprooting and outsourcing production to foreign corporations. One can't blame the C.E.O.'s for being hippie gypsy yippee skippy move to China billionaires however-the fault lies not in the stars but in our congress which has forgotten how to be a democracy.
Mass corporate planning collectively regarding the concatenated effects of corporate actions is a role for government instead of a super-corporate board ala Mussolini's fascist versions of corporatist socialism. The highest trade deficits in a decade and loss of quality jobs overseas are a result of corporate pursuit of profits offshore in the post cold-war global environment of expanded markets and a 300% increase in the numbers of cheap available labor. In order to be responsible to the interests of the people of the united States Corporations would need to be able to select to work against their own interests in outsourcing and perhaps go out of business...the alternative is to reinvent their businesses in such a way they profit Americans more so than the way of profiting foreigners more through globalism. The Government of the United States must take up the right role of searching for and structuring economic policy that would benefit U.S. quality of life better than indolent acquiescence is an anemic lazy faire ride along the currents of globalist drift.
Democracy was supposed to contain corporatism rather than be contained by it. A corporatism that overcomes democracy burns the ship upon which it prospers, and the ecology of the planet earth too potentially.
The U.S. Congress should develop rapid mass cargo and personnel transit infrastructure based on electromagnetic spirals through which electric jet powered modules 'fly' like blind moles down the cross-country tubes at 1000 miles per hour. The nations highways should become solar photon power collecting elements with new materials added to the paving (do research feds!). As Vince Lombardi said (its too bad he never coached the gipper) 'Winning is everything'. Like in football the wild kingdom of national economic policy needs people to play with the will to win for all of the people. Corporations should be free to do what they do best which is find a way to profit much like water runs under the course of gravity always to find the shortest course of least resistance to over. Government must set boundaries on the economic watercourses like a core of economic and environmental engineers to control flooding with success now and then; the water or corporations will adapt.
In the modern era George W. Bush and Barack Obama talk about borrowing and spending 50 billion here, another 50 billion there to stimulate spending in the economy as if that was rational long term policy. The Congress cannot rely on a Presidential spending spree on borrowed money to correct significantly flawed federal economic policy originating in the congressional inability to recognize that it has forgotten what a democratic government is supposed to be in the glory of expansion of business following the end of the cold war with communism except for Castro's Cuba...That may require the construction of innumerable new sailboat anchorages at very low cost monthly to achieve. The Congress must set the ecological and energy parameters to efficiently conserve the environment and economic prosperity, reverse the Judas economic drift and then let corporations function within regulatory parameters or experience severe penalties for law-breaking. Go Congress in 2008-9!

The Reality of Relativity and कोम्प्रेस्सेद Space-Time
Time really seems to be relative, and relatively real. Time is considered to be unified with space in the modern context, and hence is called space-time. One may as well ask if space is real or relative...the density of space does seem to vary within gravitational fields where it is more or less compressed, folded or spindled.
Because time and space are treated as a unified field by contemporary physicists several questions arise about the relationships of space and time to mass and energy.
When time and space are more concentrated within specific gravitational fields the comparative duration or dimensional extension of disparat3e space-time locales differs intrinsically unless the implicit values of space-time concentration for two comparative places are of the same value or 'density'.
It is travel at particular speeds or acceleration within space-time that change the comparative passage of space-time between a moving object and a stationary point, generally, and exception being black holes for which all but three values are unknown.
Space and time have a unified value such that if one travels through space then time passes more slowly than if one doesn't compared to the non-traveling object and vice versa.
The information that can be put into any given volume of space is thought to be limited to the surface area of the volume. This evidently is because concentrating information in some mass area as information at the most dense levels would produce so much gravity eventually that a black hole would form and no information would escape it's 'event horizon' or surface volume. That concept is predicated upon the principal that any given area of space-time invariably must have a gravitational field, and perhaps that space-time itself has a gravitational field even though it may or may not be of zero-mass itself.
In a given volume of space-time without a gravitational field barring other repulsive forces such as might create a hyper-inflating field for itself at super-luminal speeds an infinite amount of information may be stored, perhaps. An infinite amount of information in an infinitely small space does seem imponderable yet that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
The space-time of the Universe may allow space-time to slip into the scuppers of extra-dimensions deleting certain amount of time from the universe, perhaps that’s a cause for the accelerating speed of expansion of the space-time of the Universe today. It is possible that gravity may exist in more than the four dimensions of space-time, and it may have an alternate dimensional time-field associated with alternate dimensional gravitational fields in the space of other dimensions than those of the standard known Universe. The relationship of space-time in Universe1 to sub prime Universe1 values without apparent possibility of interaction as a traversable field lends a time 'mortgage' to extra-dimensional borrowers (dimensions) that may or may not return in space time at 'bookmarked' locations in the University in what would inevitably be 'the past'. The Uncertainty principle acting upon space-time in extra dimensions would want an information 'data bank' of information of an infinite and predetermined rate of all possible yet selected values such that the right of return of elements of space-time would not conflict with existing standard dimensional manifestations of space-time. Information in dimensional constructs should be traversable superluminally by information unrestricted by gravitational field values.
Augustine and believers in Big Bang theory tend to believe that time was created simultaneously with space from nothing, in a beginning. Since the end of Newtonian mechanics' basis for popular cosmology and its replication by post-Riemannian non-Euclidian geometries the warped nature of space-time relations has brought an awareness of the differential rates (relativity) of time in the phenomenal Universe. If one travels in one course through space-time one can experience more or less passage of time than another in the same 'absolute' time interval...there just isn't an absolute time yardstick 'out there' it seems.
God too created the Universe ex nihilo by 'saying the word' for a hyper-inflation of the clump of dimension or whatever borrowing form from an abstract spiritual fact to become membranes or zero-dimensional loops expanding faster than light until the physics settled down enough to allow matter to dominate over anti-matter in the original cage match of sub-atomic particles determining the fate of the Universe to a certain extent. The creation made time happen then along with space. As the space-time evolves through different configurations and densities increasing in size generally human perceptions of the passage of time move along in that unified field and note the motion of its passing on. Because humans can recognize motion or change in the mass-energy fields of the Universe the experience of time passing in possible.
Cosmologists recognized that an absolute Universal time did not exist across the Universe after the changes of general relativity were published and considered. A meta-time bigger than the Universe could contain the entire Universe as a sort of sub-time event of course so no matter what happened in the Universe the extra-Universal time clock still ticks on keeping track of all the wild warped time doings 'down there' in our Universe.
That notion probably is not right of course, nor would it have been necessary for God to have built a bigger than the Universe time-keeping system to have given laws of physics, space- or schedules of the existence of this Universe I think-God's personal timepiece in some better than any singularity conceivable container of everything that exists in the way of knowledge and possible universes probably may not have a definite Universal time clock starting in eternity and ending in eternity as a set thing...instead its all infinite and more troublesome to comprehend, especially if one has limited time to contemplate with.
The concept of quantum cosmology that the Universe borrowed its existence from nothing as a virtual particle might is intriguingly similar to quantum superposition in physics along the world-line contexts of quantum uncertainty. Because God is omnipotent and contains all possibilities of even those things not actualized it has a beauty to it that the Universe too has a parallel theological/quantum construction.
Time or space-time that is intrinsically bound up in the fabric of reality following the ordination of boundary contexts of the creation may permit a phenomenal and meta space-time structure of pre-determined symmetry violations regarding the beginning and the end of the flow of space time-who can say?
John D. Barrows' -'New Theories of Everything'-2007, has more on the subject of space-time theories, contexts and universal paradigms.

Church- A Priesthood of Believers
'Church' phoenetically arised from the old and middle english word 'cirice or circe' that meant (the) Lord's, and that is from the word meaning 'Lords' in Greek- κυριακον. ref. http://www.experiencefestival.com/a/Church_-_Etymology/id/1287683
It is written that the word 'church' in many or most translations into English from the Bible refer to the word in the Bible 'ecclesia'(in Greek -ἐκκλησία').
The concept of a church, or the church of Jesus Christ means simply that the believers have a true relationship to the absolute Truth in-itself, for-himself Jesus Christ. The faithful are the Lord's having been saved from the temporal conditions of original and subsequent sin.
Jesus Christ as Truth of an absolute sort is also being referred to with the word 'Truth' meaning an abbreviation of sorts, such that it simplifies saying that Jesus Christ is also God and Author of Everything including the Universe and so forth. If one does believe that then the relationship to Truth is far more important than the relationship to others who are not of faith and who are not saved. It is something comparable to it being more valuable to be on a lifeboat on a sinking ships than in the gambling lounge of the doomed vessel playing cards for penny points yet the stakes are ultimate. The church in the world is still basically a dysfunctional Temple Priesthood in little fiefdoms such as crucified our Lord. People cannot let go of the worldly power and security, and even want political power still.
A real church organization would train people for peer democracy under God instead of for rule by dictators and C.E.O.'s. A true Church structure would let the Truth of faith stand directly in relation to Jesus Christ without the vicarious upper class Christian careerism of the post-founders era.
The Church today could use a priesthood of believers organizational and design leader. You see Martin Luther believed that all Christians were to be priests in distinction the the hierarchical priesthood which continues an exclusive process.
A priesthood of believers would be something like groups of twelve with peer status sharing their weekly Sunday meeting roles in majority speaker, minority speaker, weekly reports and song leader. With this sort of fundamental organization with perhaps three ranks of novice, regular and elder status the Church would have just one high priest (Jesus Christ) and a priesthood of believers sharing in evangelical and missions work and so forth.
Many church needs should be supported by these dedicated groups, and perhaps Churches would be full with 144 members. I prefer they meet in monolithic domes sitting about round tables.
With such a squad structure churches should hopefully be able to be more supportive of medical and other group needs with contracts to Christian services to provide things the group cannot. The composition of each group should be as balanced as possible occupationally speaking.
This is a radical change to the way things are now done-Protestant Churches are set up like little franchise Catholic Churches supporting a hierarchical priesthood. Jesus ended the hierarchical temple priesthood form with his death and resurrection.
I thought a near retirement pastor might take the assignment with less risk to his career earnings potential
A 2nd reformation would be useful.
A priesthood of believers could be evolved from existing church structures to make a more egalitarian and Biblically correct for of Christian organization better able to evangelize and express the will of God so far as i understand the new testament.
The old testament has a temple worship form something similar to other priestly hierarchies of other faiths...paradoxically Muslims have an imam that isn't actually a priest but is instead just a group leader of merit.
A priesthood of believers is described somewhat in the book of Hebrews by the apostle Paul, and of course Jesus said that Christians would be as servants rather than as those placing themselves first.
Of course regular Christian priesthoods have served to bring the message of the gospel over the millenia, however in this populist era all should be more equal and serve equal roles as servants able to serve other Christians first and then others as is useful or consistent with Biblical doctrine.
Here is a brief organizational structure example...
Christians in a church would be organized in groups of 12. Maybe a useful Church would have 12 groups of 12. Each worship day one elder would have a 15 minute time to talk or sermonize, a few hymns could be sung, and everyone else in the group could have five minutes to talk or not. Alternate weeks would have a new elder selected to sermonize.
Perhaps it would be better to have half of the 11 non-sermonizers talk for 10 minutes each instead of for 5 minutes. Each would be expected to share some learning from the Bible and perhaps to discuss individual work assignments.
Tithing could continue yet no-one would be paid. The money would be invested in insurance for group associates and physical maint. Each member would have their own outside job, yet each group would so far as possible provide fairly free services to other members when and how useful.
In the priesthood of believers all would be trained to be front-line working Christians trained to speak in small groups, evangelize outside when possible, and be a Christian educator. The only position women would not take, in order to be consistent with the Bible, would be that of the 15 minute sermon leader, who would also lead the responsive group reading. Since he doesn't get paid, and the position changes no one should care, and the members should have plenty of other meaningful work to do.
New Christians could be brought int a new member group, or shifted into groups without 12 people and so forth. This is just an idea that I believe would help to establish more Christians in presently non-Christian areas, that would bring more Christians out of backseat roles and into the forefront of actual Biblically directed Christian living and so forth.

I thought a near retirement pastor might take the assignment with less risk to his career earnings potential
A 2nd reformation would be useful.
A priesthood of believers could be evolved from existing church structures to make a more egalitarian and Biblically correct for of Christian organization better able to evangelize and express the will of God so far as i understand the new testament.
The old testament has a temple worship form something similar to other priestly hierarchies of other faiths...paradoxically Muslims have an imam that isn't actually a priest but is instead just a group leader of merit.
A priesthood of believers is described somewhat in the book of Hebrews by the apostle Paul, and of course Jesus said that Christians would be as servants rather than as those placing themselves first.
Of course regular Christian priesthoods have served to bring the message of the gospel over the millenia, however in this populist era all should be more equal and serve equal roles as servants able to serve other Christians first and then others as is useful or consistent with Biblical doctrine.
Here is a brief organizational structure example...
Christians in a church would be organized in groups of 12. Maybe a useful Church would have 12 groups of 12. Each worship day one elder would have a 15 minute time to talk or sermonize, a few hymns could be sung, and everyone else in the group could have five minutes to talk or not. Alternate weeks would have a new elder selected to sermonize.
Perhaps it would be better to have half of the 11 non-sermonizers talk for 10 minutes each instead of for 5 minutes. Each would be expected to share some learning from the Bible and perhaps to discuss individual work assignments.
Tithing could continue yet no-one would be paid. The money would be invested in insurance for group associates and physical maint. Each member would have their own outside job, yet each group would so far as possible provide fairly free services to other members when and how useful.
In the priesthood of believers all would be trained to be front-line working Christians trained to speak in small groups, evangelize outside when possible, and be a Christian educator. The only position women would not take, in order to be consistent with the Bible, would be that of the 15 minute sermon leader, who would also lead the responsive group reading. Since he doesn't get paid, and the position changes no one should care, and the members should have plenty of other meaningful work to do.
New Christians could be brought int a new member group, or shifted into groups without 12 people and so forth. This is just an idea that I believe would help to establish more Christians in presently non-Christian areas, that would bring more Christians out of backseat roles and into the forefront of actual Biblically directed Christian living and so forth.

Obama; Retreat from Democracy in Iraq
Obama supports the Democratic Party against Democracy in Iraq. He has spoken out passionately an the candidate of appeasement and surrender to theocratic and terrorist forces in the middle east. Unwillingly to talk plainly enough to say that the people of Iraq should go to hell because they are Muslims and not worth a damn to prosper negroes in New York, chicanos in Chicago or women at Wakiki the effort to build democracy in Iraq is a tedious long slow drain on Obama's notion's of right proper spending upon Americans through direct mredistyribution of wealth via taxation. The sorry and tragic condition of so many semitic peoples caught in the historical bear traps of corrupt politicians may have an Obama to add to its list of victims.n Obama's 'flee now, save later' plan probably will backfire as would his conversion of supply sided economics to demand-sided economics. In today's economy taxationj must be indexed according to its relationship to the average American wage, we are all in this together, and the interests of all citizens to share the prosperity caused by political equantimity is essential for the profit of human genius to invent and sustain the United States of America.
The chances for democracy in Iraq may not be advanced by the Democratic Party Presidential candidate Barack Obama who advocates an immediate withdrawal from ‘the war’. This is a an ironic instance of the Democratic Party in the United States placing itself in solid opposition to the process of supporting a novel democracy in Iraq; the Democratic Party opposed to democracy. John McCain has continually supported the policy of building Democracy in Iraq, a process advancing rather well considering that the change from the former dictatorship is quite radical socially.
The Democrat Party is in a perennial disconnect from reality on Iraq policy running at lest five years behind analytically. Programmed by the broadcast media and idiomatic ideological leaders the party has worked against democracy in Iraq since 2003 following the end of the warby several months. The party should have progress quickly to discover and propose policies to increase efficiency at building democratic effectiveness and political stability in Iraq instead of retreating to opposition of the premises for war to end the regime of Saddam Hussein. When Democrats surrendered real-time participation in discovery of a method to build a just civil peace and prosperity in Iraq to advocate abortion of U.S. efforts in Iraq their real-time choice defaulted into being advocates of anarchy in Iraq.
In reality, once the war was won there were only three choices available for American foreign policy in Iraq; (1) withdraw amidst anarchy and chaos it enabled, (2) build a democracy inefficiently and expensively amidst Democrat Party opposition, (3) build a democracy efficiently and intelligently cutting expenses with bipartisan fervor to make democracy work in Iraq. The Democrat Party chose option one while President Bush stayed doggedly with option two.
What does it take to build democracy macro-socially? Is it simply to invent fire or is it easier to pass the torch like a mixed metaphor of sourdough bread starter from loaf to loaf? The United States inherited the tradition of democracy and parliamentary government from Britain. The frontiersmen of revolutionary America resented royal privilege and improved upon democracy in the war of independence and design of a better form of representative, popular democratic government. Conflict and chaos often attend the processes that structure a democratic society. Luckily for the United States the processes began way back in England’s struggle between nobles and King for independence; the Magna Charta recognized social and legal relationships amidst the English in a process that continued to progress through the centuries. Some Americans have forgotten that the leavening of democracy must arise on occasion from those able to afford the gift unto those destitute of freedom and individualism. Too much the Druckerization of government has found an elite of M.B.A.’s plundering the stores of democratic nationalism, gutting environmental responsibility from business and taking over in meaningless mergers not only the firewalls of competition in business rivalry but respect for democracy and individualism.
Liberalization of political rights such that complete independence and equality of individuals was recognized with the divine right formerly reserved to Kings. Given to individuals developed in the Declaration of Independence and Constitution of the United States of America was recognition of the immeasurable value of each particular soul to God. The Iraqis have had no such history of the gradual increase of legal civil rights. Instead Iraqis have experienced more than 7000 years of imperial or authoritarian rule under various empires or dictatorships. The sole practical democracy in the Middle East ironically is hated by Muslim people generally who are brainwashed by would be theocratic revolutionaries while the nominal Egyptian democracy in Egypt is essentially run by President for life Mubarak-next best thing to a dictator.
Democracy develops as phenomenal social group balances evolve in relationships and later in individualism such that polling free will equal citizen opinions is held to be a better way of deciding mass social policy than conflict. The historical development of reductions of conflict and innovations of advise and consent solutions by popular democratic vote to social issues isn’t inevitably a smooth history; instead as in Iraq the process may be lengthy and costly with in conflict, strife and uncertainty.
President Bush has continued resolutely to support the Iraq conflict. To some he is the poster boy of success for a President left behind policy. His son of the father Presidency is a sort of T-ball instead of fast pitch. Fundamentally President Bush isn’t worth a darn at economic policy and his advisers probably set up policies just to enrich the rich-yet he is determined about Iraq because of the vast oil reserves there in addition to other strategic interests.
It would be a tragic error for the Democratic Party to be so insouciant in quest of moral isolationism that they would dump a growing new democracy back into the cauldron of anarchy and malign influences of enemies of the United States and of democracy. In Iraq the various groups need time to discover that tribalism and clerical rule or dictatorship aren’t the sole possible ways of political life, and that groups in conflict can find that voting on common interest issues can be a more profitable way to govern themselves independently and as individuals and groups than conflict to eliminate opposition.
The United States political and military support for the growth of democracy in Iraq is necessarily a long-term commitment to defend the legitimate rights of the people of Iraq to live freely and independently from harsh, coercive and repressive powers of tyranny that comprise the historical political tradition of the Middle East. The Democratic Party under Barack Obama should not be timid about supporting the Iraqi Democracy, and it should turn about from a retirement from difficulty policy and participate in the discovery of real policy applications to accelerate the democratization of the Iraqi political system though it intrinsically is a process of decades.
The United States itself has a history of initial support for democratic change followed by abandonment once the thing seems to have started a little. Such a policy can cause decades of retarded democratic political development, or even an abortion of democracy such as occurred in South Vietnam where the effort to build a democracy was misunderstood from the start. The United States destroyed the Bathist dictatorship in Iraq and has a moral obligation to stay the course until the people of Iraq are free and secure with individual liberty and equality politically for all Iraqi adult citizens. J.F.K. and L.B.J.’s failure to secure an end to the war in a timely way in Vietnam has so scorched the Democratic Party’s confidence that it fails to comprehend that support for democracy abroad is sometimes morally necessary and occasionally difficult. Life has more political obligations occasionally than simply consumerism. Democracy is required to have an intelligent and responsible electorate willing to step into harms way to defend its liberty. When so many people in Iraq have died in the effort to resist terror and tyranny and learn democracy the Democratic Party of the United States should try to lead rather than retreat from the Iraqi political arena.
In the United States of America electro-magnetic accelerator tubes coast to coast and in select longitudinal courses should be built to assure a low-cost and planetary advanced transport infrastructure to keep a competitive advantage on shipping [product around the country at speed. Yet in the United States today with oil at 140 dollars per barrel Americans cannot imagine building and large scale innovative mass cargo infrastructure to keep shipping costs down. Truck size payloads could be moved at 1000 miles per hour to regional distribution terminals, and dedicated alternate energy solar and super-conducting networks could be synergized within to increase efficiency. Instead of using magnetic levitation system with electro-magnetic propulsion a lower cost cargo transportation structure could used magnetic rings to contain an electric jet engine powered module traveling trough the rings and receiving power from an electrical line within; the electro-magnet rings would create a low friction environment for the high speed jet powered vehicle to pass safely within. A spiraled electro-magnetic friction reduction pattern would be simpler to construct than a tunnel of rings as attractive as that prospect might be.
Such a synthetic adaptation would not have been beyond the ambitions of the builders of the first transcontinental railroad ion the 19th century with federal support yet today is beyond the will of congress who would rather depend on OPEC oil and fossil fuels deposited in America millions and millions of years ago.
That simple system was conceived more than a decade ago yet democracy has done nothing to bring it into reality-the Democratic Party is more about Hollywood than substance, about posturing rather than doing-and it needs to change towards a little more concern about real democratic responsibility and become less concerned about fashion and marketing. The Democratic Party in the United States should not be the party against democracy in Iraq. It should look for ways to accelerate the democratic process and security of Iraq toward a successful status rather than a needless disaster. When actual transport improvement s in the United States are needed and when democracy in Iraq needs U.S. support intelligence to engineer the support is far more valuable than running away from the issues even through false political consciousness.

N.Y.’s Gov. Patterson Moves to फाग New York
Governor Patterson in an intimate taped messages for a clave of homosexuals revealed that by his executive order New York State will recognize homosexual ‘marriages’ from corrupt states. The Governor joins a list of perverted executives and depraved judges overturning democracy to adulterate heterosexual marriage without public consent, in effect, by decree.
This writer anticipates that Governor Patterson will quickly move to support former Washington D.C. mayor and former cocaine user Marion Berry to run as former cocaine user Barrack Obama’s vice-presidential candidate partner. In order to expedite the destruction of moral values in America a ‘Bomb & Berry the U.S.A. in 2008’ Democrat Party marketing strategy is probable.
A new program to recycle college degrees is wonted for those of us with college degrees from the University of the State of New York. In order not to become a post hoc alumni of Sodom & Gomorrah State University or have a marriage certificate from the State of Bisexual Legal Alliances where reproduction isn’t a goal, but lust is new social institutions will need to be created. One such project to recycle Bachelors degrees from New York public colleges and Universities would be to create M.A. program at private colleges that accept a B.A. from a New York public university, issue an M.A. after completion of the work and then allow destruction of the undergraduate degree. It should be possible to destroy the problem abominations of New York. Unusual remedies are necessary when legal means are corrupted by gross perversion of moral standards as a means of democratic dissent.
Another challenging consequence for Christians is the choice of forgoing adulterated marriage certificates issued by corrupt and depraved state governments that include homosexuality within the parameters defining marriage. Should heterosexual couples then live without state sanctioned marriage until a reform of the corrupted institution is made, or should they ‘visit Disneyland’ on queers day with all the rest acquiessecing in the perverted public policy. Rule by the rich through the broadcast media is the actual reason for all this high-sticking of moral sensibilities as the public isn’t any longer running on a ground up majority democratic foundation.

Scoffers at a Theistic Evolution of God
Theistic evolution is a synthetic presentation of scientific and Biblical beliefs on the origin of everything in the beginning. How can one meaningfully encapsulate either the Biblical book of Genesis' ideas on the subject or those of scientific cosmology in a simple way when the representations are not the things in-themselves? Evolution isn't creationism. Orwellian obfuscation of meanings such as in 'freedom is not free' and 'evolution is creationism' result from mass confusion.
"Psalm 75:4 "and to the wicked, 'Do not lift up your horns. 5 Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak with outstretched neck.'"
I had written this article with the title 'Theistic Evolution' in the beginning, yet it somehow ended up in this maladroit 'Evolution is creationism' title that implicitly decategorizes evolution and creationism. Each of those terms are well defined even if incomprehensively in some respects. I will amend my article a little now to reflect the erroneous categorization, or as philosophers say, categorical error that lumped together two wrong or inaccurate titles that provide incomplete cosmological ideas about the ontology of the Universe.
For some time I have realized that scientific evolution presents at least 10 or 20 excellent cosmological origin theories of the Universe. John Barrow's recent book of 2007 considers an approach that examines several of the theories as aspects of a deeper, underlying theory. I enjoy the Enneads of Plotinus and his concepts about the material universe as a parallel approach to deliberate upon a chaotic macro-field promulgating Universes. God Made the representational language of the book of Genesis simple in order to put 'the little gods' back in the bottle of limited knowledge after eating of the tree of knowledge.
An evolution is a change or tensor. When that applies to the physical universe instead of an opposition force bomber group ingressing an evolution to the target it means that from a beginning things have changed and in the process of change life sprung from the material of the universe, or mankind was made from mud as theistic evolutionists might say drawing upon ancient Biblical terminology. Creationists unfortunately have a more prestidigitator's cosmological interpretation of the Biblical verses pertaining to cosmology, based on anachronistic time and space literals. So, in order not to allow yet one more obfuscation of the terminological categories of evolution and creation to pass unchallenged I will reiterate my initial post on theistic evolution with just one more comment first; both evolutionists and creationists have a vested hierarchical trophic order of a 'priestly' caste that has arrogated their own particular slice of truth unto themselves for proprietary, financial purposes, as well as the compounding factor of historical confusion...neither side wants to allow the smallest increment of new synthetic analysis to enter the fray, and such a truth is Theistic Evolution.
Scientific and Christian cosmological paradigms may be inclusive rather than exclusive...logical categorical errors and indeterminacy of translation may be the source of confusion. This is a survey by the author of progressive creation and cosmology in what can be thought of as a theistic evolution of the Universe. For some large number of people living in the post-Scopes trial era the Bible's interpreted message of eternal life and salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ has seemed to be in contradiction to the more worldly and fungible evolution theory befitting a marketplace with less than ideal ethics as a rule. Is the issue really one of evolution from apes (crudely put) and blue-green algae vs. instant creation of mankind as Adam (Adams means brown dirt in Arabic)or one of Intelligent Design versus Dumb Random Design?
Scoffers at a Theistic Evolution of the Universe by God exist on both sides of the great divide of faith with atheists and commercial Christians unable to comprehend that the bow of the space-time ark of a Universe in which people find themselves alive was evolved by God with a past including forecastle, midships, poopdeck and stern.
Some would deny God's creative power to make a Universe with reversible mechanics held together by the complexity of reversibility, laws of thermodynamics and improbability of the reversibility of entropy. Others cannot believe that a point particle singularity could have been set in place from nothing by God or that a zero-dimensional brane could have existed from a beginning without time and suddenly received the impetus of time and motion-yet why should they if ancient Babylonian concepts and cosmological paradigms are available for the interpretation of Biblical concepts. After all, some might speculate, wasn't God intellectual as advanced in 1000 B.C. as he would ever be and wouldn't he disclose every physical mechanical aspect of the construction and history of the Universe to fallen humanity of that era? Didn't God want humanity to swiftly recover their omniscience from the tree of knowledge and create their own Universes and substances immediately perhaps like a super-powerful joker from the original Batman the movie?
Jesus Christ usually provided intelligence to his disciples in parables. Parables like allegories provide data without exact technical information. One might reasonably believe the same situation prevailed with Biblical references to cosmology, and that the fuzzy logic of physical paradigms described for ancient peoples served collateral purposes of withholding of dangerous technical information from primitives as well as not binding the cosmology of God to erroneous physical cosmological paradigms throughout future history-humanity could err in its discoveries of cosmology as it clanked along the millennia , while God could provide several cosmological paradigms consistent with observable mechanics and reason to far as it goes yet unbound to particular definite cosmology paradigms, for especially today it is the case that science has numerous alternate cosmological models of the Universe none of which are yet complete.
God has the theistic power to evolve the physical universe yet to alter it at his will. The miraculous and wonderfully beautiful nature of quantum uncertainty means that all possible worldlines for each individual particle in space-time exists simultaneously for every particle through the Universe, and perhaps through the future and past universe as well, and they must exist in a meta-field inclusive of space-time as virtual particles. There is an evident progression of the physical cosmos in a particular direction with definite change, and the Bible supports that premise of growth in many places, yet some would stick to the interpretive paradigms for Biblical literals given unto the dark ages, or deny the role of God altogether rather than to try to comprehend the wonderful nature of the albeit fallen Universe in which mankind exists as it was set into motion by God.
Inflation has passed the Big Bang as a likely cosmological origin in the present era I believe. Space-time is believed to have coexistentially expanded analogous famously to a balloon.
Many people make invalid disjunctive propositions conclusive for themselves regarding Christian cosmology and scientific cosmology. It is like saying the dumpster at McDonald's or Burger King, when there was a third choice of eats perhaps without a dumpster at all.
The Biblical chaos preceding the spoken word to begin order is considered by some equivalent to the pre - Higgs field inflationary chaos of high entropy.
The Higgs field expansion of course accelerated space and time, and the gravitational force eventually brought some of the field to contract and form into galaxies etc eventually. After 6 billion years that period was over, the Universe resumed expanding with renewed acceleration at 7 billion years-God rested on the 7th day, and cosmologists speculate that the present expansion toward high chaos/entropy (all the hills made low, the sun going red giant, more signs and shaking in the heavens) will continue until a state of highest possible entropy resumes.
2nd Peter 3:8 "8But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."
I think Peter was generalizing as best he could; the special theory was a bit beyond him at that date. The cosmological constant, another Higgs field possibly, is thought to be the element pushing space-time outward as a sort of anti-gravity. The Higgs field may be what gives all the other mass-like particles a seemingness of mass...that is it is relation to how they interact with the Higgs particles. Light quanta have no mass traveling at the speed of light. At the speed of light time does not exist at all. Time exists proportionally, maybe in ratio to the Lorenz transformation, to speed in any object. The faster one goes the lower the value of time one-object experiences within the special theory of relativity. God of course isn't subject to the time dimensional effects Himself unless he chooses to, because He is a spirit and certainly not interacting with a primordial Higgs field to experience time or speed necessarily within a contingent cosmos of His creation...
Brian Greene phrased the way people experience sight in an interesting way in the 2004 book 'The Fabric of the Cosmos'; he said (paraphrased) that certain waveforms (I interpolate of the M-Theory matrices strings or branes assortment) stimulate certain chemicals in the eye to give the experience of seeming to 'see' in the brain. That interesting point should stimulate some theological and philosophical cells perhaps asleep to consider the phenomenality of the cosmos as a for-itself, as what seems to be, even within an 'evolved' paradigm, and even how 'things' seem to have 'weight' within a Higgs field and within one's own senses within the Higgs Field and space-time possible 3 brane . Some cosmological theorists point out that the entire universe could have been created from 20 pounds of 'mass' that was hyper inflated in a Higgs Field. 20 pounds and all this exists...not exactly illusory, yet relative and very temporal. In physics theories even time is reversible or isotropic. The problem is entropy...it is a statistically modeled exemplar chaotic distribution of everything toward disorder. Time can't improbably assemble particles or mass from disorder to order.
At the beginning, somehow from extreme chaos and entropy, the Universe and space-time immediately came into being with the most concentrated possible order. The spoken word to begin, the order for the right strings and branes to vibrate or resonate, whatever God choose to will to be, and eventually human life too. God's intervention in social reality, in order to give the sentient elements of His creation an opportunity to become reconciled unto his will, does occur within the context, for human beings, of the cosmos which he created.
Of course there is prophetic material in the Bible, and I would not stipulate that 'theology' is the purpose of all scripture, or even most of it.
[http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/theology]
However it is certain that God has 'superior knowledge of the cosmos and physics to humanity. It is humanity that sees through a glass darkly and is continually revising its cosmological opinions often for the better. The Bible is truthful and even its cosmological ideas will be consistent with what ultimately is.
I believe the prophets and apostles were often right about cosmological concepts even though they would have needed to be ignorant about it from a worldly basis. If one reads the pre -Socratics and other aboriginal traditions about creation the Bible is remarkable for what it does not say in error on the subject, and what is does have to say. Obviously it will have ideas that were simple and appropriate for the time written, yet will not become inconsistent with an increased understanding of the truth. Plainly the Bible could not alter its content periodically to coincide with the Ptolemaic, Copernican, Newtonian, Einsteinian and M-Theory versions of understanding what the Universe is.
"Psalm 75:4 "and to the wicked, 'Do not lift up your horns. 5 Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak with outstretched neck.'"

For some time I have realized that scientific evolution presents at least 10 or 20 excellent cosmological origin theories of the Universe. John Barrow's recent book of 2007 considers an approach that examines several of the theories as aspects of a deeper, underlying theory. I enjoy the Enneads of Plotinus and his concepts about the material universe as a parallel approach to deliberate upon a chaotic macro-field promulgating Universes. God Made the representational language of the book of Genesis simple in order to put 'the little gods' back in the bottle of limited knowledge after eating of the tree of knowledge.
An evolution is a change or tensor. When that applies to the physical universe instead of an opposition force bomber group ingressing an evolution to the target it means that from a beginning things have changed and in the process of change life sprung from the material of the universe, or mankind was made from mud as theistic evolutionists might say drawing upon ancient Biblical terminology. Creationists unfortunately have a more prestidigitator's cosmological interpretation of the Biblical verses pertaining to cosmology, based on anachronistic time and space literals. So, in order not to allow yet one more obfuscation of the terminological categories of evolution and creation to pass unchallenged I will reiterate my initial post on theistic evolution with just one more comment first; both evolutionists and creationists have a vested hierarchical trophic order of a 'priestly' caste that has arrogated their own particular slice of truth unto themselves for proprietary, financial purposes, as well as the compounding factor of historical confusion...neither side wants to allow the smallest increment of new synthetic analysis to enter the fray, and such a truth is Theistic Evolution.
Scientific and Christian cosmological paradigms may be inclusive rather than exclusive...logical categorical errors and indeterminacy of translation may be the source of confusion. This is a survey by the author of progressive creation and cosmology in what can be thought of as a theistic evolution of the Universe. For some large number of people living in the post-Scopes trial era the Bible's interpreted message of eternal life and salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ has seemed to be in contradiction to the more worldly and fungible evolution theory befitting a marketplace with less than ideal ethics as a rule. Is the issue really one of evolution from apes (crudely put) and blue-green algae vs. instant creation of mankind as Adam (Adams means brown dirt in Arabic)or one of Intelligent Design versus Dumb Random Design?
Scoffers at a Theistic Evolution of the Universe by God exist on both sides of the great divide of faith with atheists and commercial Christians unable to comprehend that the bow of the space-time ark of a Universe in which people find themselves alive was evolved by God with a past including forecastle, midships, poopdeck and stern.
Some would deny God's creative power to make a Universe with reversible mechanics held together by the complexity of reversibility, laws of thermodynamics and improbability of the reversibility of entropy. Others cannot believe that a point particle singularity could have been set in place from nothing by God or that a zero-dimensional brane could have existed from a beginning without time and suddenly received the impetus of time and motion-yet why should they if ancient Babylonian concepts and cosmological paradigms are available for the interpretation of Biblical concepts. After all, some might speculate, wasn't God intellectual as advanced in 1000 B.C. as he would ever be and wouldn't he disclose every physical mechanical aspect of the construction and history of the Universe to fallen humanity of that era? Didn't God want humanity to swiftly recover their omniscience from the tree of knowledge and create their own Universes and substances immediately perhaps like a super-powerful joker from the original Batman the movie?
Jesus Christ usually provided intelligence to his disciples in parables. Parables like allegories provide data without exact technical information. One might reasonably believe the same situation prevailed with Biblical references to cosmology, and that the fuzzy logic of physical paradigms described for ancient peoples served collateral purposes of withholding of dangerous technical information from primitives as well as not binding the cosmology of God to erroneous physical cosmological paradigms throughout future history-humanity could err in its discoveries of cosmology as it clanked along the millennia , while God could provide several cosmological paradigms consistent with observable mechanics and reason to far as it goes yet unbound to particular definite cosmology paradigms, for especially today it is the case that science has numerous alternate cosmological models of the Universe none of which are yet complete.
God has the theistic power to evolve the physical universe yet to alter it at his will. The miraculous and wonderfully beautiful nature of quantum uncertainty means that all possible worldlines for each individual particle in space-time exists simultaneously for every particle through the Universe, and perhaps through the future and past universe as well, and they must exist in a meta-field inclusive of space-time as virtual particles. There is an evident progression of the physical cosmos in a particular direction with definite change, and the Bible supports that premise of growth in many places, yet some would stick to the interpretive paradigms for Biblical literals given unto the dark ages, or deny the role of God altogether rather than to try to comprehend the wonderful nature of the albeit fallen Universe in which mankind exists as it was set into motion by God.
Inflation has passed the Big Bang as a likely cosmological origin in the present era I believe. Space-time is believed to have coexistentially expanded analogous famously to a balloon.
Many people make invalid disjunctive propositions conclusive for themselves regarding Christian cosmology and scientific cosmology. It is like saying the dumpster at McDonald's or Burger King, when there was a third choice of eats perhaps without a dumpster at all.
The Biblical chaos preceding the spoken word to begin order is considered by some equivalent to the pre - Higgs field inflationary chaos of high entropy.
The Higgs field expansion of course accelerated space and time, and the gravitational force eventually brought some of the field to contract and form into galaxies etc eventually. After 6 billion years that period was over, the Universe resumed expanding with renewed acceleration at 7 billion years-God rested on the 7th day, and cosmologists speculate that the present expansion toward high chaos/entropy (all the hills made low, the sun going red giant, more signs and shaking in the heavens) will continue until a state of highest possible entropy resumes.
2nd Peter 3:8 "8But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."
I think Peter was generalizing as best he could; the special theory was a bit beyond him at that date. The cosmological constant, another Higgs field possibly, is thought to be the element pushing space-time outward as a sort of anti-gravity. The Higgs field may be what gives all the other mass-like particles a seemingness of mass...that is it is relation to how they interact with the Higgs particles. Light quanta have no mass traveling at the speed of light. At the speed of light time does not exist at all. Time exists proportionally, maybe in ratio to the Lorenz transformation, to speed in any object. The faster one goes the lower the value of time one-object experiences within the special theory of relativity. God of course isn't subject to the time dimensional effects Himself unless he chooses to, because He is a spirit and certainly not interacting with a primordial Higgs field to experience time or speed necessarily within a contingent cosmos of His creation...
Brian Greene phrased the way people experience sight in an interesting way in the 2004 book 'The Fabric of the Cosmos'; he said (paraphrased) that certain waveforms (I interpolate of the M-Theory matrices strings or branes assortment) stimulate certain chemicals in the eye to give the experience of seeming to 'see' in the brain. That interesting point should stimulate some theological and philosophical cells perhaps asleep to consider the phenomenality of the cosmos as a for-itself, as what seems to be, even within an 'evolved' paradigm, and even how 'things' seem to have 'weight' within a Higgs field and within one's own senses within the Higgs Field and space-time possible 3 brane . Some cosmological theorists point out that the entire universe could have been created from 20 pounds of 'mass' that was hyper inflated in a Higgs Field. 20 pounds and all this exists...not exactly illusory, yet relative and very temporal. In physics theories even time is reversible or isotropic. The problem is entropy...it is a statistically modeled exemplar chaotic distribution of everything toward disorder. Time can't improbably assemble particles or mass from disorder to order.
At the beginning, somehow from extreme chaos and entropy, the Universe and space-time immediately came into being with the most concentrated possible order. The spoken word to begin, the order for the right strings and branes to vibrate or resonate, whatever God choose to will to be, and eventually human life too. God's intervention in social reality, in order to give the sentient elements of His creation an opportunity to become reconciled unto his will, does occur within the context, for human beings, of the cosmos which he created.
Of course there is prophetic material in the Bible, and I would not stipulate that 'theology' is the purpose of all scripture, or even most of it.
[http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/theology]
However it is certain that God has 'superior knowledge of the cosmos and physics to humanity. It is humanity that sees through a glass darkly and is continually revising its cosmological opinions often for the better. The Bible is truthful and even its cosmological ideas will be consistent with what ultimately is.
I believe the prophets and apostles were often right about cosmological concepts even though they would have needed to be ignorant about it from a worldly basis. If one reads the pre -Socratics and other aboriginal traditions about creation the Bible is remarkable for what it does not say in error on the subject, and what is does have to say. Obviously it will have ideas that were simple and appropriate for the time written, yet will not become inconsistent with an increased understanding of the truth. Plainly the Bible could not alter its content periodically to coincide with the Ptolemaic, Copernican, Newtonian, Einsteinian and M-Theory versions of understanding what the Universe is.

Demo Party Wants Change; to Vote on Sending 'Bomb to White House
Nobel Laureate Al Gore invented the internet and has a plan for a better model when the present internet ends. Gravitons have been hard wired into the background unified field of quantum uncertainty and provide eleastic interactive computational Shannon entropy infoprmation feedback when stressed. Utilizing those gravitons will save a lot on land fill waste sink overuse from all those used notebook batteries.
The Democratic Party desired change in 2008 and voted on sending a 'Bomb to the White House. When it became evident that the diapers of democracy were over full and change was urgently needed just Hillary and Obama were thought capable, and they could be the light at the end of the tunnel of internet termination-which may not occur until 2012 incendentally in time for the next Presidential election.
When the end of the internet occurs, oil will still be the fuel of choice for Americans. A post modern cro-magnon restoration will bring back smoke signaling to accompany better internal combustion engines, and the promise of light at the end of the tunnel will mean that the nation building of Iraq will happen soon.
Senator Obama expressed a plan for America's energy future based on coal. Clean bathed coal without the stench of over-full fossil fuel technology was deemed the ticket. Coal worked well for England in the 19th century with just a little pollution, and will work well for Chicago too the Senator conjectured. It is believed that American ingentuity will invent new, cleaner home coal burning furnaces for every Chicago dwelling, and with the thousands of jobs created for people delivering coal loads of lumps will be leftover for Christmas stockings achieving the campaign motto of 'a lump of coal for every home'. Hamster cage loop driven internet power supply provider technology is being researched presently by Howard Dean's special Vermont Institue of Political Research, and a surge protector is ready to field test to prevent Hillary Clinton from taking office and developing a rival alternative energy based domestic jobs policy for the U.S.A. that could prevent the necessary phasing out of the internet by 2012.
For the end of the Internet as we know it, this comment goes out to those still able to decipher data bits in crystal lattices that aren't taxed...Small worlds network modeling of the Internet finds remarkable associate cluster conformity and neuronal transmission pathway congruence with other small worlds networks outside the universe of computing. Perhaps the Braham Institute of Cambridge U.K. has discovered some sort of electronic arterial sclerosis that isn't subject to pharmaceutical remediation yet it seems unlikely, since the origin of the Internet was in an U.S. Air Force project to make nuclear war survivable communications with redundant and independent routes of communication. September 2008 seems somewhat early for a conventional over-use gridlock of Internet bit sharing to occur, yet demyelination paradigms of data guide-paths precipitated into catastrophic transformation could develop consequent to concatenated information piracy creating an extreme Shannon entropy concurrence. Possibly a lot of global electromagnetic detonations producing (emp) pulses could shut down the global telecommunications network before an alternative system of flagging could be improvised. Space aliens could take over the Federal Government at any moment too, yet it seems improbably because of the inability of any intelligent life in the Universe to comprehend the rational for federal economic management policy that takeover by hostile aliens is improbably before October or November 2008.
Senator Edward Kennedy split the Democratic Party nominating primaries in 1980 when he ran against the incumbent Democratic President James Earl Carter. That was before the Internet era and before the creation of scheduled technological disasters. Ted Kennedy was the last candidate that sought to release committed delegates in order to change their vote allegiance. Hillary Clinton seeks to release the bound delegates forced to work for the Obama campaign (a candidate that claims to be able to unite the nation following the split after the civil war of 1860-1865). An Internet collapse will transplace U.S. time to the pre-electric era when slave importation had been forbidden just 20 years after the end of the articles of confederation era and federal sailing ships patrolled the coast to arrest slave running illegal alien ships. Senator Kennedy loathed Jimmy (The Peanut) Carter perhaps because of his southern, British ancestry (something similar to the Bill Clintons incidentally). Senator Edward Kennedy has again engineered support for a major split in the Democratic Party once again setting up a Republican victory by his declared support for Obama. In theory a racial bomb will go off if Obama isn't elected to 'heal' the racial divide and end the war in Iraq that ended in 2003 followed by an incompetent era of nation rebuilding efforts unassisted by Senator Obama the last three years still seeking to 'end the war'.
The interesting question to consider here before the Internet era ends possibly in September thus halting Internet campaign contributions to Democratic candidates is; 'How much is Obama really like J.F.K.'? We will briefly review President Kennedy's history from the intercepted alien historical rave communique of the time period before he ran for the Presidency, coincidentally in the year of Obama's birth (watch this for space alien juxtapositions)...
The young John F. Kennedy was raised in a cross binned hurricane. He was drowned and left for dead and raised by a toothless dispirited hag when his cigarette boat was cut in two offshore by a fast Japanese tourist cruise ship passing one night. John Kennedy and his crew of coke-heads with adolescent adjustment problems had engine troubles and were adrift before suddenly discovering their fast boat cut in twain and themselves plunged into the shark infested waters. With Senator Kennedy's leadership the ship was pieced together with super-glue and motored slowly to Kevins Bar in Molokai Bay where they survived on for a month on coconuts and pina coladas in a reality television show before rescue and education in an Indonesian madrasa where they ignored fellow students bowing to Mecca and became followers of Rhinehold Neibuhr. So did Barrack Obama.

About high food prices
Starvation management is a result of globalist corporatism and allocation of resources prioritization that regards entitlement options for food purchases of contingent importance compared to corporate profits and neo-classical economic paradigms that disregard externalities such as the planet's environment and eating as unimportant non sequiters if not within global corporate loop iteration requirements. Globalism provides numerous deleterious impacts upon national interests and local political autonomy. Globalist economics disdains national borders as hindrances to a global market-and that global market with absolute advantage globally for corporate producers means that production of local foodstuffs may be eliminated because of required importation of cheaper globally produced food that can be purchased unfortunately oftimes just by those with good jobs.
Farming is a business with roller coaster like output variables depending upon growing conditions; paradoxically in high output years food prices drop and farmers may lose money at the margins-that's why the United States has had food price supports historically for farmers in order to ensure an even food supply. With globally dominated food production eliminating farm subsidies may be required of the people because of W.T.O. that forbid letting governments support small local businesses such as family farms that compete with global farm corporations. Paradoxically if national governments do subsidize farms and many of them are globally owned corporate farms then the people of the nation are actually paying taxes to the globally owned corporate farms too as discrimination is verbotten.
In effect globalism wars upon ecological economics and rational comparative advantage criteria policies of nations that allow rational border control, food production for survival and development of vital new industries such as alternate power and alternate transportation modalities that permit ecologically rational technological progress and output to sale units that might compete with global economic control. Because global corporations control the broadcast media through ownership and propagandize the public as malodorous sycophants of evil irrational aggression the prospects for a right return to conservative ecological nationalism aren't good presently.
Higher food prices are managed by global corporate collectives along with higher fuel prices. The most powerful profit and broadcast incremental ideas to the masses as if they were being served.
Venturing into the difficult subject of food prices and hunger, starvation and political power isn't the usual subject for a philosopher. Philosophers may perhaps prefer to be more cautious and technical in their approaches to various macro-social issues. Such caution is requisite it seems for a meaningful attempt at accuracy in understanding and describing the etiology and status of macro-social, empirical circumstances of concern. Yet I will write anyway without the customary conservative deliberation and study preferred; it may be that such an approach works better in circumstances where the consequences aren't so immediate and dire. Hunger is a traditional tool of political power, and with the world moving off a more natural and locally controlled agrarian foundation for producing foodstuffs onto an industrial and post-industrial basis that even second and third world peoples aspire to join global political power more readily may influence the course of events, equipment, personnel and allocation of food and food production related resources in accord with their personal, proprietary collective management philosophy.
Following Robert Malthus' theories based on work for the British East Indian Company the economist Ricardo devised the infamous 'iron law of wages'. That hypothesis stated that the unlearned masses of peasant humanity would reproduce as fast and as numerously as available food allowed. A further corollary of economists of that era was that it would be cruel to allow the reproduction of vast numbers of ignorant people that would subsequently starve to death because population had exceeded temporarily food production and food cost. That was a rational to pay the lowest possible wages to workers and to impoverish them in accord with compassionate conservatism; the compassion lay in starving parents or potential parents far enough to prevent their birthing of large families doomed to suffering. Compassionate conservatism today updated to the global control era would perhaps logically allocate billions and billions or even trillions to the top 1% of income earners and starve the masses globally with high food costs in order to control global overpopulation.
Global overpopulation is obvious and well known as a pressure factor socially with a plethora of laws such as the Kyoto protocols adumbrated to control the effluence of six billion human beings over-stressing the global environment. Quality farmland is over-built with sprawling housing subdivisions to reduce food production, the green revolution has failed to produce higher and higher quantities of food on fewer possible acres, water resources are being over used and polluted-the desire for first world life-styles makes everything more expensive in many respects, including food that must be flown globally to satisfy the lustful appetites of the 'deserving' masses desiring quality lives formally reserved to royalty. The question is what can be done to keep down food costs, keep corn for human food instead of for automobile fuel and so forth.
Nationalism is the sole sober political formation capable of keeping democracy alive and under local control. Secure national borders without illegal alien immigration or large scale legal immigration for economic purposes are requisites for a non-corrupt form of capitalism. Capitalism that is allowed to corrupt rational boundaries for immediate profit is corruptitalism that rots reason, political rationality and a sustainable free enterprise driven economy with stable prices.
A corrupted capitalism that breaks all boundaries as is customary today destabilizes implicitly micro-economic structures including food. A stable economy is reprehensible to corrupted capitalists that seeks only abstract profits instead of a stable quality of life. Capitalism becomes equated with a radical concept of evolution theory and change for the sake of change is deemed politically good, and a survival of the fittest is deemed best, with the qualitative evaluation of the best reduced to a non-rational opinion that the survivor or remnant is the best de facto. One lame duck in a tarred nuclear world burning plutonium fires would be the best pinnacle for capitalist, corrupted evolution in such a theoretical framework. The frenzy of trade for itself having replaced the reason for trade, borders, stability and nations-even food becomes a commodity few have a right to posses, and even fewer to profit from as corrupted political and economic union in corporatism has eclipsed reason.

Carbon Dioxide Cap and Gown Collateral Laterals
Historically in the United States the association of cheap labor and working class neighborhoods as camp followers of old industrial start up in by-gone eras created the prospect for future slums following up after the end of the industrial era. Sometimes the industries left before environmental controls and concepts were adumbrated to delimit how far in exploiting humanity and the environment a business might go. There are yet other concerns about the 'externality' of pollution afoot today which we might consider...
Globalism has replaced the internationalism of the post world war two Breton Woods conferees with a takeover of the World Bank and International monetary fund driving support into the absolute advantage of global corporations trading in a fast-ouch so of way where no conscionable businesses would; moving so fast and far as business considerations allow to produce the most inefficient environmental products in the poorest nations with the cheapest labor thus avoiding the hindrance of environmental responsibility. The race to the bottom of ecological stewardship is an obvious consequence of globalist supremacy over national and international comparative advantage. Perhaps the carbon dioxide emissions cap and gown over the pollution reality is an example.
In the United States today, as well as elsewhere on the globe an emissions allowance of atmospheric composition altering gas-co2 based in part on national accountability in a global era with hippie- gypsy global corporations essentially without borders able to move their polluting businesses offshore when accountability in any one nation becomes too much means that the hapless national taxpayers will pay the real cost for co2 emitting businesses wither through taxes or by the hidden tax of runaway corporations moving to the Congo or wherever. It has been noted that a hidden cost of protecting (rather inefficiently too) the ecology of first world nations is the unintended effect of those ecological assailants in logging, mining, fishing, automobile production and so forth moving to ecologically defenseless poor nations without environmental or labor laws. In that regard the worst polluters move to dump the industrial waste from Europe or elsewhere via tramp shippers to African villages or their 'outback' in the jungle with a bribe or two to the local and regional Chief who isn't a chemical eco -engineer with a medical degree.
It is useful to remember that today's ecologically prosperous areas such as Montana become tomorrow's poor area. In Montana global warming has decreased annual snowfall to just 24 inches on average down quite a lot. Forest fires and the costs of extinguishing them have increased. In time the sort of tree that can survive the altered environment of Montana will need to change, and to avoid a poor environment in the future today arboreal planners should experiment and plant some forests after fires with trees better able to withstand drought , warmer temperatures and fire. Local areas should receive via their public universities funding to study and develop superconductor electricity storage loops submerged in liquid hydrogen created by solar electrolysis from water that could store solar and wind created power and avoid excess transportation costs that pollute a lot, are very inefficient and add much to global warming. Patent costs should be brought down by half and the time of a patent should be reduced to just ten years in order to expedite human technological proliferation of more efficient technologies. While it would be fine to innovate in a first world nation something like a Stradivarius loss prevention wireless device that would signal if the instrument became more than 20 feet distant from the owner, it's use in more generally applicable social and ecological conservation efforts would obviously be quite limited. As the 21st century progresses not only must Haiti receive lots of birth control and hydroponics gardening assistance, inventions must become available for generic application faster than twenty or 50 years if the foundations of poverty are to be erased and an ecological continuum of health developed.
Globalism has replaced the internationalism of the post world war two Breton Woods conferees with a takeover of the World Bank and International monetary fund driving support into the absolute advantage of global corporations trading in a fast-ouch so of way where no conscionable businesses would; moving so fast and far as business considerations allow to produce the most inefficient environmental products in the poorest nations with the cheapest labor thus avoiding the hindrance of environmental responsibility.

In the United States today, as well as elsewhere on the globe an emissions allowance of atmospheric composition altering gas-co2 based in part on national accountability in a global era with hippie- gypsy global corporations essentially without borders able to move their polluting businesses offshore when accountability in any one nation becomes too much means that the hapless national taxpayers will pay the real cost for co2 emitting businesses wither through taxes or by the hidden tax of runaway corporations moving to the Congo or wherever. It has been noted that a hidden cost of protecting (rather inefficiently too) the ecology of first world nations is the unintended effect of those ecological assailants in logging, mining, fishing, automobile production and so forth moving to ecologically defenseless poor nations without environmental or labor laws. In that regard the worst polluters move to dump the industrial waste from Europe or elsewhere via tramp shippers to African villages or their 'outback' in the jungle with a bribe or two to the local and regional Chief who isn't a chemical eco -engineer with a medical degree.
It is useful to remember that today's ecologically prosperous areas such as Montana become tomorrow's poor area. In Montana global warming has decreased annual snowfall to just 24 inches on average down quite a lot. Forest fires and the costs of extinguishing them have increased. In time the sort of tree that can survive the altered environment of Montana will need to change, and to avoid a poor environment in the future today arboreal planners should experiment and plant some forests after fires with trees better able to withstand drought , warmer temperatures and fire. Local areas should receive via their public universities funding to study and develop superconductor electricity storage loops submerged in liquid hydrogen created by solar electrolysis from water that could store solar and wind created power and avoid excess transportation costs that pollute a lot, are very inefficient and add much to global warming. Patent costs should be brought down by half and the time of a patent should be reduced to just ten years in order to expedite human technological proliferation of more efficient technologies. While it would be fine to innovate in a first world nation something like a Stradivarius loss prevention wireless device that would signal if the instrument became more than 20 feet distant from the owner, it's use in more generally applicable social and ecological conservation efforts would obviously be quite limited. As the 21st century progresses not only must Haiti receive lots of birth control and hydroponics gardening assistance, inventions must become available for generic application faster than twenty or 50 years if the foundations of poverty are to be erased and an ecological continuum of health developed.
