Two Qualities The Next Supreme Court Justice Should Have

President Obama's second choice should be a strong supporter of clarity and openness in legal contracts with a full disclosure principle as a goal. Fine print may obfuscate and technically nullify the principle that all contracts for legality must have consent of all parties involved. Corporatism has tended to obfuscate truth, hedgemonize the marketplace and throw disequilibrium into free enterprise with advantage to the in-siders.

Without ecological economic principles within a strong national prioritization criteria the future of the United States is less bright than could yet be secured. Corporatism and globalism's advantages in the broadcast media, in business and adverse influence upon government at all levels has controverted significant portions of the premises of the founders in violently overthrowing the globalist government of the day. A decadent court with no military service history heavily invested in foreign or trans-national corporations is hardly one to be much concerned about democracy and equal rights for all citizens free from the inherent encumbrances and control mechanisms of global corporatism.

John Paul Stevens, like John Paul Jones, had a substantial regard for the liberty of the United States and for Americans. The next Justice should exceed his record in defense of U.S. Independence.

Enlist in the International Guard and Serve Globalism?

In the cold war era, serving in the National Guard presented a simpler opportunity to believe one was serving national rather than global corporate interests.Today the belief is harder to attain. When one asks 'what would Ronald Reagan do(?)' on a particular national defense policy, one seeks the understanding of America's best pragmatic post-Eisenhower/Nixon President on defense issues. Reagan had a penchant for successfully defending the real interests of the nation. Ronald Reagan was no multi-trillion dollar big spender on foreign overseas missions; as are Iraq and Afghanistan Bush II-Obama policies

Ronald Reagan's defense budget built up a large military for potential rather than actual use. The military was capable of good military action, yet was not largely employed in war as economic and social self-interests tended to prevail. Following 9-11 I believe Ronald Reagan would have taken a far different course than the Bush II policy of protracted foreign engagement with a vast deficit and harm to the U.S. national economy.

Corporate influence over Government has diminished democratic, national self-interest. Half-baked political economics has made of corporatism a kind of crack-pot anointed fail-safe philosophy. The financial sector has swollen in size, too many jobs outsourced without adequate replacement, and nationalism has been attacked in the corporate broadcast media. The financial industry was allowed to become 'too big to fail' and too big to let nationalism and self-interest, low unemployment rate and no public debt be prioritized.

What was needed in Afghanistan following the Taliban's unwillingness to give up Al Qa'eda-which they might not have been capable of anyway, was saturation bombing of select targets. The United States contains Iran and North Korea reasonably well,and could have tolerated the existence of Afghanistan under the rule of the Taliban occasionally smoked by B-52 sortees when their terrorist actions against the United States became unbearable.

The same containment of Iraq might have been pursued with a total degradation of Iraq's military capability such that domestic subversion and revolutionary attacks could have increased, or to the extent that Iran might have attacked enabling a U.S. response to the Iranian aggression in Iraq again by air. The Bush II choices to pursue the most expensive possible reconstruction of government of ungoverned people seems more of a choice for internationalism and global corporate profits, military adventurism and increased output for the military industrial complex than a rational Reagan-like military policy of walking softly and carrying a big stick striking only when really needed to eliminate foreign capacity to continue assault missions upon direct U.S. interests.

With the very high cost of sending even private E-1's to Afghanistan or Iraq for extended tours of duty the present U.S.military policy is very un-Reaganesque. It is a policy of globalism and international defense of Chinese copper mines in Afghanistan, and for and increased military size. This is why, in a jobless recovery, with an Obama plan to increase public debt a trillion dollars a year the next decade, the corporatist broadcasts soliciting people to enlist in 'the national guard' ring so false. It seems like 'enlist in the international guard' would be more honest.

Military officers in the revolutionary era were not without genuine political opinion. Perhaps it was easier to avoid the draft in 1775 than today. It was not so simple to avoid the British colonial government though, so those that sought political liberation from the onerous British policy toward the United States had few remedies besides personal military service3 if they wanted things to change.

Today the globalist corporate ubiquitous presence requires silence from its employees at the executive level on many kinds of non-sycophantic political expression. I would think the military leaders of today also must be yes men, sort of remote control corporate yes men, if they wish to serve. If the Gates leadership brings the service to gay integration with heterosexuals in units, it is difficult to imagine that many straight soldiers will resign. Money and career overcomes political opinion far more than it did in the revolutionary era perhaps.

Well, not to pick on gays, it is a clear and present issue that brings the nature of loyalty to hierarchical leadership up, and why the National Guard to evolve into being more of an international guard of global corporatism than a force to defend Pittsburgh, or Fairbanks or Miami. It is plain that the military response to 9-11 was exceedingly incompetent in financial nature regarding the challenge, and did more financial harm to the U.S. economy that the foreign terrorist did. There has been no continuing harvest of large numbers of illegal combatants to fill Gitmo's cells with, and the actual terrorist efforts have been fairly pathetic since then. (9-11 has been used as a license to unlimited deficit spending and disregard of U.S. national economic interests. It is difficult to believe that anything more than a tripling of the size of the C.I.A. and F.B.I., building a salt-water moat along the Mexican border with berms and pipelines, increasing U,.S. Customs and increasing the numbers of stealth fighter-bombers was needed. Such could have cost less than a tenth of what was bought by the Bush II and Obama Administrations with such harm to U.S. national financial interests.

On The Cost of Surgery for the Self-Employed Working Poor

My experience with the cost of surgery for an on-the-job injury while self-employed may be typical for the working poor who do not live within a theoretical framework.

The injury was in June of 2007, the hernia surgery in January of 2010. The charges for a four hour day surgery came to about 14,000 dollars--a bit steep for laproscopic surgery. I just got a phone call from a 'recovery center' in Anchorage claiming another 900 dollar bill for a physician I hadn't heard of. The surgery was in Juneau.

The medical coverage is good, fast and effective. It is also beyond the range of those poor self-employed Americans without corporate or government scale income.

I got the hernias while self-employed roofing. The government wants taxes paid on the earnings of the self-employed without insurance, even though the medical costs for that year were about triple the earnings. The I.R.S. almost always wants a flat ten percent regardless of expenses--thats the way it is. Wtihout regular deductions for social security, medicare and such they want money in a lump sum. One earns less than the standard deductable, has triple the medical costs, and the government still wants its ten per cent-year after year

Well, I had bought a new remote property in Alaska to build a home on, yet traded that to pay half the surgery cost. Forced to work to get out of Juneau after surgery at something with lifting. I picked up an end of a 30 gallon bin full of water and fish and got a heck of a strain. Workers are rather disposable in America. Another hernia without another home to trade would leave we short. The work in Juneau is mostly just for government workers and some corporate employment in tourist related things. Though the Juneau royal family politician-Dennis Egan-says things are good here, they aren't. The population and economic facts rarely change much because its a city of government workers in isolation.

At least the government takes care of those global corporations and broadcast powers allocating resources to concentrate wealth. Its good to know the government follows the Roman pattern of decadence and probably will collapse eventually with plenty of hell even for the bureaucrats and rich. Then, the barbarians over the border will probably have national health coverage and wear Gucci shoes, the U.S.A. will be invaded by corporate bill collectors and free enterprise absolutely impossible for noncorporate entities.

The tax credits the government has been giving to the middle class with corporate jobs to buy homes does nothing at all for the poor seeking to buy land to put a tent on. If one owns property then at least own might build a fair hut for a low cost instead of paying corporate for a rental (if one hasn't got a hernia or three).

After the End of the Analytic-Synthetic Distinction; Part Three

Physicalism is a term Quine used instead of materialism. Quine's ontological terminology allows any term to be a non-realist term--that is unlike Kripke's neo-realism where words seem to have some real meaning associated with them for themselves, Quine seem to lean more toward Russell and others who felt words have meaning given by use. If physical means one thing to people in 1775 and another thing today--each meaning could be true,yet that's more of an historian of language meaning's kind of truth then and now rather than the kind of truth that one might find in some kind of analytic statement construction such as "every triangle has three sides".

Quine might have agreed with your statement above--yet in the Kantian context the analytic and a priori is something more independent of experience of the world of experience.

It was Immanuel Kant who developed the concept of analytic and synthetic judgments in his magnum opus 'The Critique of Pure Reason'. He later presented a condensed version of the Critique in 'A Prologumena to Any Future Metaphysics'. LikeBeing and Nothingness and the Bible, I have had that book around forever.

Kant's work is considered to have commenced modern philosophy as co-equal with Descartes. Descartes examination of the cogito and primordial sentient thought was a foundation for epistemological logic, yet Kant's work was more rigorously technical. I will place a pair of hyperlinks to descriptions of Kant's categories of thought. Analytic judgments are about things in the mind without necessary existence in the 'natural'world. Such statements such as exist in algebra suffice as an example, while statements about rainfall, a Superbowl game, bad federal building design in D.C.--these are examples of synthetic judgments. Quine however transcended the difference between the two realms that empiricists had made an opinion about.

http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/kant-judgment/


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic-synthetic_distinction

I will quote the wikipedia entry on their technical definition of a phrase each of Kant's analytic proposition and his synthetic proposition:

"analytic proposition: a proposition whose predicate concept is contained in its subject concept"

"synthetic proposition: a proposition whose predicate concept is not contained in its subject concept"


With analytic judgments it is easy to make intentional, within thought only tautologies or topics in agreement logically that do not necessarily exist physically. I should same it is in theory possible, yet perhaps only so far as one acknowledges the proposition as finite in nature, phenomenal and subject to the boundaries of the incompleteness theorem of Godel. Geometric forms are implicitly section-samples of some larger wholistic realm of forms perhaps--a conic section is just a conic section of a cone, sphere or some other arbitrary configuration of volume.

Incidentally, I think salvation through Jesus Christ may concur with Plotinian paradigmata of The One in this regard; Jesus may be the only sinless,perfect form permissible to God for integration into the eternal realm of forms, heaven,or eternal, scalable purposes of God. Humanity pervasively has local, non-eternal broken form in acceptable for scalable eternal being. The sacrificial work of The Lord who donates His grace unto the faithful provides human beings with The Perfect Form required of The One whom issued this temporal Universe with numerous broken forms within it. Even junk r.n.a. has a purpose though--so the unwilling to be saved through Jesus Christ may serve a useful temporal role unknown to many of us.

The wikipedia entry for Kant also reminded me of another important Kantian distinction regarding statements; the a priori and the a posteriori. I will quote a phrase each from the wiki entry on those:

"a priori proposition: a proposition whose justification does not rely upon experience"

"a posteriori proposition: a proposition whose justification does rely upon experience"


Taken together with the analytic-synthetic distinction it is easy to understand how empiricists could classify synthetic a posteriori favorably and a priori statements rather with bias. Darwinians would favor the synthetic a posteriori for physical evidence. Quine found the Kantian methods rather unwieldy. Obviously a lot of analytic and even a priori judgments go into theorizing about evolution that is added to the physical evidence, and such also occurs in anticipating the future truth values of present federal budget deficit and national debt predictions which have a discount rate greater than that of many too big to fail banks. Some governments feel they are too big to fail I think.

Empiricists believed that only synthetic judgments could present real information about the world--especially useful to scientists. Following is a link to a defense of Kant vs Quine. I agree with Quine however, and believe that Kant's noumenonal-phenomenal distinction is more important.

http://nzphilosophy.blogspot.com/2005/08/kants-analyticsynthetic-distinction.html

The analytic synthetic distinction is of practical value in classifying various kinds of language and what it refers to, and is of value for philosophy in distilling ideas and language for logical consideration of meanings of terms and their validity in particular contexts. Kant's analytic-synthetic distinction was transcended in the same way the Einstein's relativity transcended Newton's theory of gravity. Kant's analytic-synthetic distinction is still valid locally for categorizing phrases and referents, yet not absolute--that is analytic judgments occur in a physical context too although in the mind, and propositions they can be about such as quantum mechanics, or string theory, may actually apply to the 'real world' such as might analytic statements such as 'the color of the apple is red'. From understanding of optics we know why the color of an apple may appear red to a sighted individual who isn't color blind. Newton developed a theory of optics.

http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/08603a.htm

"____________________________"

That's an interesting inference. Plotinus pointed out that questions, language and communication in a sense exist only for imperfect beings lacking omniscience. If The One knows everything then there is no reason to ask anything. For Plotinus the existence of anything therefor was a mystery; if The One is absolute perfection and power,why create the temporal?

The phenomenal has the unknown too. Perhaps with analytic or even a priori researches one might attain more knowledge. That is possibly a history of math and algebra with Lie and Killing groups useful for string theorists who still develop an analytic framework without decent yet into conformal symmetry with the 'objective realm'of experience that is this Universe.

I think that sort of unknown area of research can only reveal the phenomenal however. A valid string theory could only be phenomenal, as I think can any a priori or analytic, synthetic or a posteriori judgment be only revelatory of the phenomenal. The noumenal is unknowable. I erred above I think in postulating to forms of the noumenal-such perhaps as you refer to for the discovery of which is a purpose of language. I think type A of the noumenal should just be the unknown phenomenal. The noumenal would be that vast realm forever unknowable to human knowledge.

Small Nuclear Plants and Containment of Terror Challenges Prolifrerate

If these petite nukes go in all over the world to increase electrical output then the requirement for security defend these little 8000 home power nuggets will increase along with nuclear waste. Letting ten thousand nuclear plants bloom may bring a hidden, down side of lethality.

Amory Lovins and John Price wrote a book in 1975 titled "Non-Nuclear Futures--The Case for an Ethical Energy Strategy". Many of the arguments against the larger nuclear plants are valid against the small as well. Politicians are perhaps the least creative segment of society continuously dredging up old energy ideas and presenting them as new answers. They invest in upgrading old technologies instead of supporting new because of the wealthy political contributors that have investments in the old industries that paint America into a corner financially. They do not support either national financial or energy independence.

The new, small nuclear power plants that could be in a neighborhood near you soon. Ranging from 10 to 45 megawatts, these mini-tower nukes make local politicians and real estate developers drool with happy anticipation of new sumptuously profitable growth with private power plants. Microsoft and Exxon could buy these babies to power their corporate growth interests,and of course Google should need several to surge electrons for terra-flopping on wireless gaming of more virtual reality The city of Galena Alaska along the Yukon River is reported to be negotiating with a foreign supplier. Ninja-Spetnatz suicide bombers ofthe future may scuba under the ice at high speed to emerge a dark winter nght with a sonic laser ice cutter to blow up the shaft and kill the artificial salmon runs restored toreplace the lost native salmon population.

The effects of all of these temporal, deleterious, phenomena, concatenate environmental wastage and social danger--the environment gets bad. What is needed is rational long-range selection of modest, conservative infrastructures that will produce super-conducting electron storage and transmission channels of green input photons and wind energy.

Iran could use these smaller plants instead of large one--yet thousands could be built to power everyone's neighborhood--is that really a good idea? Larger plants are better for making clandestine nuclear materials for refining upward for nuclear weapons materials--and thats what the real power is about for some.

After the End of the Analytic-Synthetic Distinction; Part Two

I believe that Quine in renormalizing the Kantian dichotomy from the analytic-synthetic distinction left a default criterion for philosophical epistemology rather adrift without a rudder. Plainly it was fairly difficult to maintain that naive realism presents the comprehensively true facts regarding theory of knowledge.

The implication of ending the separation between intellectual constructions and statements about 'real' objects and the 'real world' so useful to scientists of a certain persuasion brought more credence to the Dewian kind of linguistic relativism preferable in the Midwest and possibly amongst certain Bostonian academics. Pervasive skepticism about meaning in language regarding its ability to make statements about what true knowledge is also slipped a fog of Brahmanist-like temporal relativism over the ultimate value of science. I care about that because I enjoy cosmology.

So given that knowledge expressed in language may be a subjective ontological selection of terms and concepts such as W.V.O. Quine described in 'Ontological Relativity', ideas are not limited simply to selecting from ideas and concepts already made--they are synthesized for use in new emergent temporal circumstances as required to provide meaning. Meaning is found in the use of words to accomplish functions as desired in communication.

There is an unknown element to human knowledge, and that was what I mentioned above-rather than being convoluted it is expressly simple and plain. My opinion is that the unknown comes in two flavors; the first can be known and the second cannot.

Kant used the word 'noumenon' to describe the unknowable realm of things-in-themselves that cannot be known. What can be known is the phenomenal. Both analytic and synthetic statements are valid as far as the phenomenal goes, yet not for the noumenal. Perhaps some analytic statements cannot be used in the phenomenal either, because they are false, yet Quine believed that all analytic statements of mind occur in the wholistic Universe. My opinion is that the wholistic universe presents, for human beings, a noumenal-phenomenal distinction.--that is , I agree with Kant. The unknown within phenomenal parameters has the potential to become known, the unknown within noumenal parameters does not.

Since I am on this topic of linguistic relativism, I should like to mention an opinion that Shannon entropy conserves information not only of mass, but of 'the spirit'. The spirit in this present context means the sentient mind,its experience and personality. Because Darwinian insights about material causality referring to biological life processes may seem to differ from 1930's era common opinions, naive interpretations of, and additions to the Bible; it became popular and even dogmatic to assert that spirit does not exist, and could not outlast physical death.

A license authorized by meaninglessness regarding moral accountability logically followed a theory of non-spiritual existence.It became dogmatism amidst select unenlightened minstrels to a certain extent without conveyance of intellectual merit upon the point of view. It is a somewhat anachronistic ontology before modern science brought many more insights into the nature of language from both the analytic and synthetic sides, along with mathematics, genetic research and so forth. Spirit viewed as a sentient gift of a human mind, albeit with a substantial foundation in the wholistic universe, along with all information--is not necessarily destined to disappear through a process of annihilation by death of the body.

Matter is never created or destroyed (generally). The information of where or what everything is inclusive of the spiritual will be equally conserved. Life is not just a meaningless relativism--there are consequences for all things sentient beings choose to do.

Returning then to the nature of language; ontologolgies may be larger meaning-lexicons in through which one may describe world-view elements and relations. Describing a theory of knowledge within a given lexicon may in some way be analogous to the human experience of reality; downloading or collapsing a world-view reduces the potential from an all-possible worldlines of the uncertainty realm of quantum superpositions toward a more specific realm. There is an opportunity cost to collapsing any realm of potential world-views to that of the selection of a particular world-view.

William James wrote about 'forced options' in his pragmatist work. In several respects the selection of a world view is a forced option with the default world-views being less effective generally. That which human beings create or construct in knowledge is not all the knowledge that is, it is not all that could have been, and is limited to a phenomenal nature though it has pragmatic applications. Knowledge is a beans and bacon item. We are luck to such as we have yet might have had halibut cheeks if we were good at fishing and filleting.

Hutaree,HuT and Hut Liberation Theology

A special forces axiom is to sew confusion amongst the opposition forces. Conspiracy and collusion theorists that believe the U.S. Government today is a front for an evil Satanic empire seeking corporate dominion over the globe, might see the 9-11 destruction of the world trade towers as such a well executed action that created a new foreign enemy of an appropriate size and nature to increase Satanic globalist power. The recent Federal arrest of the whites-only Hutaree 'Christian' militia allegedly for terror planning activity--they are said to have planned to kill a policemen and then plant improvised explosive devices to kill more attending the funeral, has additional aspects of a Federal propaganda scheme to throw terrorist suspicion and profiling away from black Muslims in Detroit and on to white Christians--a happier target group for the black led federal executive branch and justice department.

2010 is an era where the Federal Government has signed off on homosexual marriage in the nation's District of Columbia, where people write on the Internet asking philosophically if human tissue grown in laboratories with genetic technology if used for food would be cannibalism, in which xeno-transplantation and trans-humanism are points of popular interest. Non-philosophers, and those of low I.Q. also economically challenged may reasonably wonder if the U.S. Government is a sinecure for a clave of wacko, perverted atheistic idiots. Who can say with certainty that it isn't?

Notably the former mufsidoon administration of President George W. Bush had luck arresting only incompetent black or non-white terrorists in the United States following 9-11. Perhaps the federal branch is somewhat biased after all--and I had previously believed them to be the paragon of truth, justice and the American way. Following the disappointing arrest of blond haired blued eyed Jihad Jane for planning to carry out a terrorist mission against a foreign cartoonist, we are persuaded that the arrest of white terrorists may increase during the remainder of the Obama administration. It is lucky the English Nigerian with pentex in his briefs seeking to orgasm over Detroit aboard an airplane flying in from Britain was not also white, for then pay-back might have been large within a vast right wing conspiracy context (either that or its a vast left-wing conspiracy).

Hizb-ut-Tahrir HuT The HT Group declared 'a jihad against police' in Kyrgyzstan in 2006 and was 'banned' as a terrorist group

Plainly the problem of the Hut Conspiracy is a consequence of Liberation Hut Theology that ensued the remification of persecution in America in the 1980s. Sarah Palin may not be a remedy to such injustice, yet she is at least from Alaska, and I saw her at church while she was yet the Governor of Alaska...she may be destined for higher office.

The philosopher Ortega y Gasset wrote a prescient book before the great war of Europe named 'The Revolt of the Masses'--he anticipated that modernization would bring the completion of a revolt of the masses against the ancient regime of aristocrats and concentrated wealth. He was right, and the leaders in the mass wars were rather incompetent approximaters of liberation theory. The remedies to oppression were equal to or greater than the problems--it adds up. The technological revolution in the way of economic living compelled a revolt against the owners of wealth of the former economic system. It was a natural evolution in blood required by then lack of spiritual insight pervasively amongst humanity of the age. They had not yet experienced a second enlightenment of the masses equivalent ton the first with cheap mass literature of a trashy sort.

The hut is a kind of symbol of aboriginal independence. The hut is a simple do-it-yourself home that does not require a mortgage lasting half a lifetime to pay for. The hut is despised by the powers of concentrated wealth that are trans-national mortgage lenders. In the United States the foreign owned portion of rental properties fluctuates to as high as 25% of all properties and may go higher. The hut is the symbol of nationalism and of local political self-determination. The Satanic Government hates the hut and seeks to delete the free-holding ownership of local and personal self-sufficiency.

Patrick Henry and the other founders of the United States were not all hut dwellers to children of the hut. Many of them were hut or cabin dwellers. Abe Lincoln was a son of the aboriginal hut of the Illinois of his day. Many Americans still aspire ton the freedom of the hut and sentiment alloy sympathize a little at least with revolutionaries today fomenting revolution against a Federal government considered to be a brutal pimp for globalism flooding the United States with illegal foreign shock workers and outsourcing jobs to communist China. The hut represents the freedom of aboriginal America against foreign control and subjugation. The new revolt of the masses may comprise a high-tech hut in a national and locally led village or constellation of huts self-reliant as producers of their own electricity, food and books.

Yet the Satanic evil empire of globalism in which the U.S. Government has enshrouded itself like the undead zombies of some science fiction realm of the universe of doom may be more of an incompetent political drift by leaders in a race of greed than a skull and bones Harvard-Yale axis of evil. It might be corrected by less than the traditional ,means of violence or voting the founders provided as exemplary of the American political way of life.

The Huteree terrorist group of Michigan is an example of incompetence at revolutionary method. We know from reading Trotsky something of revolutionary planning. Isaac Deutcher's History of Trotsky showed his work with Lenin and other Bolsheviki in structuring their war upon the Tsar of Russia--even so it was the German military power that fundamentally enabled their success--they could not have made it non their own at all. The German Army defeat the Russian Army on the eastern front of world war one and sent Lenin in a train from exile to Russia to take assume revolutionary leadership.

The interesting thing about the Michigan Huteree group is its shared goal of killing policemen with the Kyrghiz HuT jiadist group. Such resonance adds fuel to the fire of suspicion that an evil planner is structuring propagandist coups for media consumption to dupe the masses into anti-hut, pro-concentrated wealth 30 year mortgage support that is quite inimical to the interests of the poor and the middle class. If such a Federal global evil-empire policy is in covert actualization, if the herd is being driven into an ideal glass cow palace of control and indebtedness, if homosexual militancy from San Francisco to Boston and Washington D.C. and Admiral Mullins in Afghanistan is an essential tool for the leverage of globalism upon removal of independent hut construction, revolution may be a remedy sought increasingly ahead.

The religious associations of the hut liberation movement may be incidental results of the organizational capacity of ecclesiastical structures applied to political-economic equations and interests in the lack of other organizational remedies suitable for economic war upon wealthy, powerfuel oppressors. Communist and Mohammedanism each have superior revolutionary organizational structure to that of a hierarchical Christianity or corporate hierarchical evil empire.

Such actual revolutions to attain the freedom of the hut would require right targeting of economic infrastructure that would bring down corporate power lines and enable only home powered electricity and fuel to flourish--killing policemen is the least harmful thing that could occur to corporate Satanic powers of globalism for they just hire more. Economic attacks by tearing down power lines, sapping bridges, shooting semi truck tires, pouring sugar in corporate gas tanks--that is the sort of thing that does not occur much because there is little real, present interest in revolt in the United States when the masses are still free to charge things with their federal national debt card.

Philosophy Journal hyperlink: Quantum Time Theory

I have made a philosophical inference such that instead of gravitons or gravity waves, time quanta may satisfy Einstein's relativity criteria. Time quanta emerged like virtual particles from the pre-big bang universe, and reversibility of time polarity could explain the expansion and collapses of universes amidst additional features.

Obama Healthcare Bill Was a Ploy to Snag Higher Living Standard for the Middle Class

Richard Nixon sought to bring universal health care to Americans in a 1974 bill that was opposed by Edward Kennedy, now 36 years later--Richard Nixon's vision has become fact.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_reform_in_the_United_States

It is fundamentally wrong to pass a law requiring the U.S. public to pay corporations for health insurance. Democracy sometimes must directly provided satisfaction of its vital interests without benefiting special interests.There are many things wrong with treating private corporations as if they were public institutions-too numerous to mention yet I will offer several for illustrative purposes.

Supply and demand on pricing is corrupted by manditory legal requirements for insurance of all citizens. If corporations do not make enough money they can go out of business. Too much private data is given to the corporate world. Alternative methods of delivery medical care such as co-opts for communities are, a priori, disadvantaged as redundant.

Medicare and Medicaid should never have served as universal providing of insurance for large numbers of citizens. In the future the expansion of either may bring large numbers of poor but health youth and perhaps former illegal aliens into those systems adding unforeseeable new debt following any corruption of passing amnesty bills to reward those breaking the laws for the most time. Such prices with equity could be passed for tax evaders giving amnesty for those breaking the laws much and penalizing those breaking the laws just a little for a year or two.

A national medical service for the poor was the best way to provide the most medical service to the poor at the lowest cost. The Democratic Party lost legislative, intestinal fortitude after 9-11, and the end of the cold war.They do not stand up for democracy as opposed to corporatism--for fear of being labeled by the ignorant as socialists. Democrats act as if Sen. Joe McCarthy wad their political science professor so they must err to the extreme right or risk an 'F'. In Democracy, the people can freely establish institutions to provide to satisfy vital interests of people that cannot provide for themselves--such as health care for the poor. What they should not do is establish corporatist-socialist structures such as require citizens to pay particular private entities money.

Corporatism and universal corporate health insurance requirements are the best pheasable methods of developing universal oppression of individual liberty and democracy in the United States today.

Expansion of the V.A. hospital systemto include free treatment of the poor and illegal alien residents would create a vital functioning national emergency medical care infrastructureable to responnd at the lowest cost to national disaster. The poor could use the facility easily without strings or ongoing paperwork.

Obama care will require new bureaucracies to administer the tens of millions of people not enrolled as well as to verify the financial information of individuals applying for services. Some will receive somewhat degrading service conditions potentially for using programs that had before perhaps been reserved for the elderly in order to receive medical treatment. Illegal aliens by the millions will of course continue to use emergency rooms and stay off the federal paperwork all together. The debt will be passed along to citizens through higher health coverage charges.

One must believe th the driving force for the Obama Medical Plan is the desire of the middle class to have a free lunch, and the unwillingness of the rich to provide adequate health care for working people. As the quality of medical care increases the middle class want to exploit it all such as is available to the rich--they can't afford that and do not save enough, buy too large of homes the government must step in to save from mortgage defaults and deflation of value by the trillions, and but large wasteful of fuelo S.U.V.s by the two or threes per home--that lifestyle requires more than they can afford so the Democratic party and the Republicans too borrow trillions from abroad to fund their corrupt political economy.

It is likely that such an impractical lifestyle over time will result in the continuing decline of U.S. national independence. There are substantial reform steps possible such as I suggested above would work for squaring away the poor, and then the middle class could approach its not-altruistic desires for cheaper medical coverage for itself, apart from the obscurantism of providing medical coverage for those of us that have had to barter away a home lot for surgery, and then seek to avoid recurrence of the same injuries on the job, self-employed without insurance the next few years until becoming aged enough for Medicare coverage perhaps.

N. Koreans May Have Torpedo's/SUnk S. Korean Navy Ship--Russia-U.S.A.-Chiana Tri-Lateral Arms Talks in Future?

A South Korean navy ship was sunk following an explosion near the stern--possible from a North Korean torpedo. The recent North-South political difficulties highlight the kind of problems with economics and political environment the world faces today as it fails to rise to the challenge presented unto itself, from itself.

While the U.S.A. and Russia have agreed to limit themselves to perhaps 1500 larger atomic warheads apiece--we are sure this is enough to get the job done of vaporizing whomever needs to be vanished from the planet along with so many endangered species and the web of life on Earth. There is the consolation that humanity is making countless new products each year that can be adapted to end all life on Earth or just particular species or populations.

The nuclear weapons approach is crass and crude today. It is written that an atomic weapons dust up between India and Pakistan might bring on a global freeze up and catastrophic loss of human and other life because of all the particulates that would be put up into the upper atmosphere from ground level nuclear detonations. heres the hope that wisse heads will prevail and any atomic weapons used will not be detonated at ground level but instead at perhaps 20,000 feet above the major cities of each nation such that everyone dies below but not as much dust is kicked up to chill down the entire globe.

The United States and Russia ought rightly to be natural allies since they have so much in common including a Christian heritage and experience in creating large networks or soviets of organizations to repress individualism. Corporatism and its networks betraying western heritage for cheap profits in China may seek to exploit Russia sufficiently to defeat national self-interest and bring it under the wing of the Supreme Global Corporate Soviet of Wall Street listed trans-national corporations. The United States needs Russia to fend off the growing Chinese military and atomic threat--not to mention that of Iran and the rest of the terrorist elements of the Muhammadanist world.

China has more than twice the population of that of the United States and Russia put together...so mutual military alliances against China are a natural development. Even better would be trilateral agreements that would have China voluntarily limit its atomic weapons increase and conventional military too, in order to save that wasteful outlay beyond that reasonably needed for self defense.

In theory the less China develops its offensive military capacity the less either would the United States or Russia need to develop there own--and with the fundamentally wrong regulation of world economic practices regarding environmental impact, the military focus of the three potentially or actually largest atomic weapons powers should be contained and reduced a little to free up political focus upon more forced ecological rectification issues. Atomic weapons development is an anachronistic direction that the world cannot afford today.

Ecological economic rectification requires not only the use of resources renewably so far as possible, but the elimination of habitat destruction and the end of chemical despoiliation of ecosystems--not even plastic cups should be used by the worlds male human population because of the release of estrogen like chemical compounds over time. Governmment regulation of categories of chemical use needs to be strictly designed and enforced.

A free market in Adam Smith's 1776 is different than that of 2010. There were no corporations then and a free market was contrasted to the aristocratic monopoly of trade enjoyed by the King and licensed royals. Today a free market is controlled by networks of large social organizations called corporations. Individuals have little real free trade opportunity that would conflict significantly with the totalitarian market control of existing large capitalized elites.

In order to restore a free market, the government should have differential income taxes upon profits from corporate shareholders such that shares and income from more than three corporation would be taxed at a 75% rate. To prevent cascading network control by elites of business through stock purchases government must actively seek to limit stock woning for an individual to three businesses. Then more free market phenomena for individuals might occur, and large, vested corporate interest may relax their grip on economic rectification toward an ecologically rational enlightenment regard they have generally resisted in blind pursuit of monetary profit.

Ideas About Gravity as Time Quanta

Philosophy provides license to consider many ideas briefly and construct paradigms of a theoretical nature, so I write some philosophical thought about an approach to understanding gravity.

So there may not actually be gravitons then--why should there be a large particle crossing large empty spaces to link mass and energy? Perhaps it is a concatenated local effect and diminishes with distances because the mass thins out in empty space and gravity needs to bond its force through existing particles rather like waves in the ocean.

Gravity could be something entirely else though--a kind of apparent force thought of as gravity yet actually entirely a local and short-range force. Einstein would be nearly entirely right in this context; space would seem to be bent like a rubber sheet depressed with mass upon it drawing in other mass to its slippery slope. Farther away of course the space-time smooths out and the force of attraction diminishes toward the reference mass.

The idfference between apparent gravitational force through particles of attraction and Einsteins logical waarping of space-time because of mass for many of us non-scientists has presented a two-part approach to understanding what gravity is. Since they seem respectively somewhat inconsistent, I will provide another way of viewing gravity based not too much upon either.

Gravity might be an apparent phenomenon concatenated at the mass level that disappears with an explanatio of what is really occurring. Mass-energy particles may be associated with a dimension of time in proportion to their comparative scale. Gravity particles or waves may not exist at all.

The time dimension is short range and in relation to the scale of each unit of energy-mass. The initial impetus of the inflation and big bang era imparted a tremendous force to detatch the time stability of the basic quanta. As tthe inertai of the quanta was spent, time was created outwardly with space, and the quanta though implicitly seeking to bond with a particular spatial relation perhaps had far too little time content indifvidually to accomplish the reversal of space-time in-themselves.

This may seem something like trading a graviton for a time-i-ton, and perhaps it is, yet each basic quanta must exist with one unit of time for-itself as a being. The assertion of time concatenated outward in an expansion of time and space may be a way to account for and number of relativistic and quantum mechanical phenomena concurrently.

The acelleration of observed expansion speed of the universe may not be a consequence of dark energy or mass, but could instead result from individual time-it-tons orienting themselves toward a non-centralized direction in their effort to attach to space.

It is interesting to conjecture about a singularity of time and space that becomes subdivisible into fractions of time-space quanta subject to macro-thermodynamic effects.

It is also intriguing to consider a quantum mechanical computer- like universe that can generate one-off instantaneous universes of space-time in infinite number as branching devices to become consistence with observation. I should remark that God may have far more complexity in quantum mechanical and macro-cosmological potential than might be thought.

The attachment of time-unit quanta to space may be a feature of quantum superposition with entangled larger space-time energy structures within a detachment from time context of space itself. Space could be timeless without content or mass-energy of course, and would be a shortcut through which time quanta may associate.

One may consider such a topology of time with a variety of hypothetical features of course, and these are some of those I had today.

Poetry Journal; Implosion of the Tower of Life

New tine blossoms late in spring
budding ideas of mortal’s sap
sought well blent magic cakes some have ate
rhymes and riddles works worst rap
unleavened dread locks of green
breaking buildings down phat donuts dumb could hate

Donuts down all over town
plastic bagged for a silent world of dumpster diving loans
9-11 towers collapsing inward on their own
sensations of genomic deletions cast economic striving’s somas

Removing those living links
killing the worm prey for chemicals
deadened soil, empty ocean cascades of nullification
implosions ought be taught better than rand

Absent lower level structures pent up
changes flow like a Scythian blade of death
golden hordes aptly de-maggotified for fruit-flies
carry a reign of terror-sparked plosives wealth. Sought and shot such time well spent
gravity and tuhter tree forces snag a light beam’s rent
compacted algorithms like numbered information bit paintings living
add nothing to what we had, neither brooms or knackwurst plaid

Hawk talons struck awkward, individualist voles
driven ‘neath broadcast waves to form herds made to feminine bowls
to the edge upon the knife points of practical power reigning
lives were spent and binned, hairy wolf paws and whale traded for goals

Single malt, double fault, when the fall calls down
winter’s wisps’ of memory become hated
never again flickering into a dream on Earth.

About Writing Philosophical Science Fiction-Part Two

There may be many examples of good philosophical science fiction--in fact Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy and 'The Harry Seldon Plan' is a kind of social philosophy for itself. Frank Herbert's 'Dune' and 'The Jesus Incident implicitly presented alternative views of normal reality which comprises on occasion philosophical meritorious work.

Amidst philosophers Bishop Berkley's Dialogues are perhaps the most famous fiction method of presenting philosophical ideas--in that case the proof for Idealism (Ideaism). Yet we are not in quest of thinly disguised philosophical works dressed up with science fiction costume. We seek to create actual philosophical science fiction. Such work in a modern context may include neo-Platonism, String Theory and multiverse criteria. There is a need for flexible characters able to adjust to complete and sudden transformations of space-time continua, of the fundamental nature of reality, yet capable of keeping some dignity about themselves and not losing track of perennial, transcendent values that cohere in the logical constitution of the presented thermodynamic variables of the Creator.

Of course as philosophers writing science fiction we seek after the One true God recommended by Jesus Christ. We realize that Jesus had a system of transcending values that could not be fulfilled by any one human being on Earth in a lifetime--personal sacrifice was required. Jesus started the new age rolling with his own personal sacrifice. He told us also that those that save their lives will lose them, and those that lose their life for his sake, find it. Tough order of assembly obviously, yet humanity as an imperfect and flawed organism needs help in moving toward spiritual orders and rational (from my perspective) social reality in pursuit of pragmatic utopia rather than dysfunctional non-renewable macro-economics and depletion of environmental resources amidst and exploitative social infrastructure. In order to bring philosophical merit into our science fiction projects it is important to describe the temporal veils of appearance and circumstance that comprise bad federal policy on any planet or circumstance in which it may occur, if it serves to advance the story line.

We may ask 'where should we leave our protagonists--in this universe or that, dead in this lifetime or resurrected through some sort of super-medical intervention in another universe. Though we commend our soul unto God, everything else seems somewhat subject to change and insult, attack or depletion. We may not seek to create our own non-temporal realm of forms, yet we can contemplate arresting elements of the changes of space-time a little such as capture of photons in Einsteinium or whatever extrapolating perhaps to the freezing of quantum super-positions and all states of all waveforms in all possible universes until we get a pay increase in our negotiating humor if such serves to advance the science fiction story line.

While we may drop down puts into unpredictable holes with the assurance of a reduction of quantum uncertainty such as a Tiger Woods perhaps, neither need we form our science fiction plot lines with random association of macro-quantum wave-particle configurations pre-determined to emerge as any mundane universe flowing ineveitably toward thermodynamic exhaustion. Our science fiction descriptions have the trait of meta-stepping to a higher or lower level frequently enough to bring us to counter-act that effort to reach just the conclusive and best truth with decent in to lower realms nearly reaching the clouds of temporal comedy of errors and the praise of folly such as a Congress may prefer.

I believe its worthwhile making a comment about the Socratic dialogues probably the intended reference by Len above concerning "many of the Greek and Roman philosophers used dialogue to make their points."

Aeschylus and/or Euripides made a little fun of philosophers for their seemingly air-headed ways in their plays, yet the dialogues of Plato that captured the essence of the ideas of Socrates and his opponents in rhetoric were anything besides spaced. They brought an intellectual acuity to their day that has comparatively never been surpassed.

Socrates as a philosopher isn't known to have written anything at all--not much help then as a guide for a writer today of philosophical science fiction. Plato on the other hand, wrote a lot about Socrates and his conversations with other philosophers and people he led in philosophical dialectical inquiry concerning truth and it's nature. Yet Plato wasn't a fiction writer--he was more like a court reporter hanging out at the Agora and at other famous Athenian locals capturing the best of the life and times of Socrates.

There were other writers of non-fiction in the 5th century B.C. of course--historians and such. There were also dramatist-playwrights and poets. Fiction wasn't much of a genre back then. In fact Cervantes and Don Quixote built up from many short stories and in Japan The Tales of Genji are two of the earliest novels. Philosophers generally wrote non-fiction and more technically in both ancient Greece and Rome. The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius doesn't provide a mix of dialogue and prose fiction scene setting--we must wait some time for that.

Plato was a philosopher writing about his idea of what another philosopher said. Our issue for this essay was discover methods of making the writing of philosophical science fiction simpler. We like dialogue, yet it is too simple and insufficient for making an interesting story if it is actual philosophy--for it is then mostly speculative non-fiction. Our philosopher writing a story simply breaks up his monologue into two parts and has a dialectical exchange format for presenting the ideas.

That was the reason for the three to one rule of description to dialogue-one may write a fifty thousand word philosophical monologue in two parts and throw in some parsley and sprigs of mint for scene setting. Like Tolstoy at the end of Anna Karenina throwing his used-up heroine under a train (tragically) to provide a quick ending to a story he had lost interest in continuing, the philosophical science fiction writer has the risk of evaluating his descriptive portion as insignificant and just provide highlights as accoutrements to the main course of philosophy. Prose fiction writing is important too for the philosophical science fiction novel--so plotting is very helpful in creating a framework into which the philosophy can fit--it is not an afterthought, or an indirect product of a well written novel such that philosophical meaning might appear here and there like the sun breaking through interminable months of nimbus clouds and rain to shine some light into the underworld of temporal existence.

If Federal Forcing of Citizens to Buy Health Insurance is Illegal, A Public Health Service for the Poor Could Be the Remedy

If twelve states including Virginia plan to sue the Federal Government, or file legal challenges to manditory health insurance purchases from private corporations, they may well win. The Attorney General for Robert E. Lee's home state has fire in his eyes looking upon Obama care. He does have a better legal leg to stand on than did Robert E. Lee regarding military prospects for beating Washington.

Paradoxically, the first black President is expanding the first de facto corporoatist law requiring the purchase of anything from Corporations. Wal-Mart should get into the insurance business so we could all fullfill our legal duties by shopping for insurance there. They may be able to cut deal with China and all their juan floating about so Americans can become insured by the prosperity of that communist government.

There never was an actual alternative constitutionally to performing good government work in Congress at which they have of course failed. The poor need free health care, illegal aliens need to be kept on the other side of the border, a national health service for the poor had to be established--the Congress just wasn't up to these challenges, and neither could it recognize the difference between socialism, corporatism and democracy. The Congress just gave up on democracy.

The U.S. Supreme Court was right about not limiting corporate campaign spending of course--the rectification required is just to give over all broadcast airwaves to the use of individual citizens for a fair political slice of personal political podcast year-round. The corporate domination of the broadcast spectrum is where the right democratic correction should be made--the present Congress just hasn't got evident political theory I.Q. points such that they don't fail the challenges of modern political complexity.

So I anticipate that the Federal drift to corporatism will continue reinforced by Republicans and Democrats. None wish to trouble themselves by upgrading their political philosophy such that they could recognize national reality.

Super-Conducting Electron Storage Packs for the Moon and Mars?

With superconductors practical at very low temperatures, I have wondered if N.A.S.A. has developed super-conductor storage 'batteries' for small space-craft. A variety of super-conductor 'battery' storage packs could be launched into space and made available for storing solar power and perhaps partly charge small ion engines.

Hundreds of super-conductor electron storage units might be deposited on the moon in various locations for electrical needs of astronauts and other. Although Mars is warmer than the moon, it might be worth studying the concept of landing super-conductor storage units there too in order that various space-craft roving on the surface could be recharged readily. Suoer-conducting technology would of course be useful on Alaska's North Slope and the rest of the Earth.

The moon would be a very good place for creating networks of super-conducting wire grids for surface transportation power. Solar panels of a thin film might be laid out nearby to input electrons to the super-conductor.

Has a study been done on thee maximum density of superconducting storage of electrons? What about the lightest weight for super-conducting materials? Can superconducting materials be designed integrated with thin film solar voltaic capture?

With the recent publication of the discovery of a substantial amount of ice in at least 42 craters on the moon-some as much as six feet in depth, it is disturbing mildly, to recall that some would exploit that rare resource for rocket fuel. Such valuable ice-water should be for drinking and growing plants within a 100% recycling containment context. Such profligacy with resources is remarkable yet consistent wit federal non-renewable macro-economic policy.

Democrat's Starbucks 'Health' Bill a Move Into Corporate Slavery

Forcing Americans to buy health insurance from 'private', and in some cases multi-national business organizations known as corporations, is a giant step backward in the long march to human liberty. Jesus Christ provides freedom that liberates mankind from the mindless meat-headed drudgery of enslavement to Satan. Satan sifts humanity like wheat and would process all human beings like meat in a meat market without freedom except to be sensually immoral like sardines in a tin waiting for the lid to be sealed shut. naturally enough the President and the Congress may seek to accelerate the drafting of all souls into the compulsory snares of the prince of darkness.

There is a logical fallacy well known to philosophy such that what is good or effective for a group of limited size is good for all regardless of number. Buying insurance for the homeless people of Cleveland would be a good idea and noble thing, yet signing up all poor Americans to private insurance programs will fundamentally change the nature of the relationship between government, corporations and citizens. Some may believe in error that forcing by law all Americans to enroll in health insurance programs they cannot afford is a  cosmopolitan act of sophistication--it is not. In fact the three neo-sophisticated Presidents provided by elites--Clinton, bush II and Obama, have all failed to comprehend fundamental principles of the United States historically or to educate the public and youth on those values largely. One cannot motivate with a T-Ball Presidency making it appear that Harvard and old money is the key to success, etc. Outsourcing opportunity for Americans to Oxford and making Harvard the cinched way to succeed and 'lead' the nation also fails to insp0ire for it draws upon then understanding of elites with little practical regard for working people--they are fish to be processed for the profit of business--plenty of fish out there here or in Mexico--so sign them up to tithe their corporate rulers. They can have tea parties...such as might little children without revolutionary intent. They need a foreign oil and cars party.

Mandatory health insurance will force new layers of government bureaucracy, provide for data for government tracking of citizens, take more time of citizens to comply with paperwork, and compel citizens to pay the highest costs for the provisioning of health care for the poor. A reformed and expanded V.A. hospital system that would treat the nation's poor for no charge would be a better, cheaper way to deliver health treatment to the poor.
At one point in America's past, practical affordability was an issue in all political matters. Before the starbuck generation and the concept of deficit spending fr4om the cornucopia in the sky over China, Japan, India and elsewhere arose such that fiscal responsibility could not be taken for granted, politicians actually sought to be able to afford on a budget important pieces of public legislation. The health care bill is a Starbucks kind of damn the cost approach to medicine that will inevitably later be used to bleed the people of higher and higher health payments through a variety of unforeseen methods. It is a lever upon working people of tremendous scale--containing public health for the poor through public ally financed non-[profit medical facilities is a far more rational approach. The Government is a corporatist tool, with a corporatist court. legislature and President.

Jihad Jane a Disappointment-Not a Surprise

Really; the Jihad Jane does not surprise us. Americans have learned elementary statistical reason. One finds fishing good in the usual likely spots, though an occasional lunker may migrate to other grounds. The Muslim mufsidoon movement of unholy war may make converts in Detroit or Boston. We have have seen the film Ultraviolet, and are aware to what extent the enemy may go to infilitrate their forces across the line.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/mar/10/colleen-larose-jihad-jane-charges

So if it is a Manchurian candidate, or a Sigourney Weaver infected with an alien feotus about to grow up and devour Cleveland, we will not be surprised. Jihad Jane is a disappointment though; she might have been a cute all-American girl in Congress or driving the bus instead of a hunter-scout of alien cartoonist making funny with the evil empires of fact or fiction.

Is Jihad Jane even a real blonde? Only her hairdresser knows for sure.

One might wonder if any of the 9-11 hijackers from Logan airport were Red Sox fans piling it on to end the curse for trading the Babe and take a World Series as a Communist plot...just because the cold war ended in 1989 it doesn't mean that communist plots did--the Red Sox won the Series in 2004. One cannot stereotype all hijacker-terrorists, secretly disaffected C.I.A. black op alumni or Boston Red Sox fans because Boston's where the terrorists landed to spend their last night on Earth before flying their mission of death; isn't N.P.R. headquartered in Boston?

Some terrorists could be from Riyad or Yemen.

No--the fact that some East Coast woman perhaps from Boston who was living in Pennsylvania was hired to hunt a European cartoonist does not change the fact that the motivation for Muslim terrorists to act originate in Muslim beliefs and the poverty of Muslim nations. The blonde hunter for the cartoonist was a Muslim after all. She may have had Stockholm syndrome after the capture of her heart by the forces of Mohammad--who knows? The economy is off--one must assume she did not work for free, and got paid air tickets to Europe, interesting clandestine meetings in smoke filled bars and restaurant tabs picked up by terrorist corporate.

We know that some blondes are Muslim, and some Muslims are terrorists, but not all blonde Muslims are terrorists. Syllogisms are of such use in reasoning these not difficult points out. It would be helpful if some columnists used more logic ocassionally. We will still expect that with most good baseball players being of Latino origin for various reasons-its still a good place to look for baseball players, of course some are from Japan and Minnesota, yet we will not look in Fiji or baseball stars when everyone knows its where football players are recruited--and Muslim nations abroad are still the best place to anticipate anti-American terrorists to arise with good military experience that the United States probably provided earlier.

F.D.R. Would Have Recognized a Need for Increased Reform of Social Safety Net

53% Now are opposed to a rump-state reconciliation health care reform bill reports Rasmussen poll...
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/september_2009/health_care_reform

The entire social safety net should be reformed so that those that use it are people that actually need to. Direct provisioning of medical care for the poor without middle-men, pay-offs to insurers or kickback layers of electronic paper-shuffling bureaucrats is the best value for real monetary payment.

Social security should be limited to those with incomes less than the average worker's annual wage. If only 50% of present recipients received social security, social security taxes could be cut 50%.

If a public medical service for poor people were created, then only sick poor people would need to use it--and they would require no insurance. Veterans hospitals could be enlarged to treat the nation's poor.

The U.S. Defense Department should be cut by 25%. The Army should be reduced to a half million, the Marines by 50%, and a new 200,000 man special forces black op force created to respond quickly to emergency abroad.

A new National Guard war powers act should be created. The National Guard could not be deployed more than six months abroad without a congressional Declaration of War, or without permission of the state's governor. The National Guard would remain a significant ready reserve force.

There are other real eco-politik cuts to government that would reform it to a non-deficit producing fact. If people in government are stupid, corrupt or don't care about the poor they will produce bad politics. Some human beings existentially seek to prosper themselves--a philosophy of personal egoism--without regard to the overall concatenated public economic deficit. When that occurs too much society collapses. Government itself may be predatory broadcast bureaucrats oppressing individuals or groups. Corporations may become de facto collectives bashing around democratic taxpayers in a variety of flumery schemes and institutional structures of advantage.

The nation has a variety of ecological and economic issues creating a bad foundation ground set to crumble from a variety of environmental and political earthquakes ahead. The Government should primarily serve the interests of U.S. economic development in such a way that national development receives most support.

Some in government feel that losing intentionally will in some way serve to redistribute wealth abroad to the foreign poor.That is just an excuse to advantage the corrupt and avoid a democratic approach to good government. The impoverishment of the United States because of plundering government malfeasance is a consequence of bad federal policy. It hasn't sufficient interest in being a good government that restores ecological vitality, works to slow down the lemming like wave of ecological corruption, assures that all Americans are on a progressive track for life time economic adequacy, respects the privacy of citizens--necessary for intelligent people to be free to develop their own economic interest and differentiate themselves from tramping broadcast jackboots of federal power.

The extremely inflated wages paid for the U.S. volunteer military has created pressure to bureaucratize it and inflate its numbers with women and gays in this era where general conflagrations are not expected--that is a dangerous course if history is considered--it is also expensive and leads to perversive troop deployments abroad.

Few Americans really want to encounter large numbers of female casualties of war, and as p.o.w.s they would soon become pregnant--so would need to be chemically sterilized before going on active duty in areas with potential for conflict--such long term reversible sterilization may not be a medically feasable course.

The U.S. Defense Department should be cut by 25%. The Army should be reduced to a half million, the Marines by 50%, and a new 200,000 man special forces black op force created to respond quickly to emergency abroad.

A new National Guard war powers act should be created. The National Guard could not be deployed more than six months abroad without a congressional Declaration of War, or without permission of the state's governor. The National Guard would remain a significant ready reserve force.

A special armed nation reconstruction corps of 50,000 might be created to augment ineffective federal administration planning in politics that require the United States to reconstruct foreign governments they have destroyed, perhaps in quest of oil or commando teams of box-cutter wielding terrorists. Three trillion dollars to try to capture and hang by the neck 30 or 40 terrorists of Al Qa'eda isn't a cost effect strategy that does no harm to the United States.

Congressman Massa/Gates/Don't Ask Don't Tell'/Bush 1 and the Gates Agenda

The House voted 401 to 1 to resume the investigation of then Congressman Massa and allegations he had 'groped and tickled' male staffers before being forced to resign by Democratic Leaders seeking to hide a culture of corruption from Republicans. This brings to the fore the problems the U.S. military will experience if Sect. Gates has his wish fulfilled of foisting gay liberation upon the armed forces. With new avenues of ingression of insults to heterosexual privates, the number of internal affairs officers required to investigate charges of' tickling and fondling' may need to be increased ten-fold.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/11/AR2010031104907.html?nav=rss_politics

Ex-Congressman Massa reportedly admitted groping and tickling male staffers, and then an hour later denied it. We are not certain who is telling the truth.

Massa Sergents in the Army and other military branches of the military exercise tremendous power over poor, downtrodden E-1's just yearning to breathe free and not be harrassed by homosexuals with advantage and power. Healthy privates seek to better afford to have a relationship with an attractive woman and have good times. If the military leadership becomes corrupted by a homosexual officer elite then investigations of homosexual harrassment of strait soldiers will become more costly. Such investigations may also be impeded by homosexual officers and non-commissioned officers with sympathy for the perpetrators, or even a crush.

It is possible that some Master Sergeants and even junior NCO's will offer promotion and privilege for providing homosexual favors. The prospect of overtly placing gays in positions of power in the Gates military may bring evolution of a turbulent era--yet perhaps not. Progressive Pentagon homosexuals may require golden earrings in order to become an NCO in the future military. A poorer U.S.A. of the future may not be able to support Australia remaining free of Chinese hegemony with wealth and billionaires of China buying Australia through coal and other contracts. Globalists lackeys of China may seek to defend Chinese investments abroad. America's period of global military use of power to defend capitalism may decline as corporatism and communism suplant it.

Bush I Administration and Influence of Homosexual and Oil Agenda

The Former George H.W. Bush Administration (41) was alleged to have homosexual escapades while in office--at least that is the impression provided during the 1992 campaign season. The Bush II got the Father's former defense secretary Cheney who is a supporter of homosexualism. He became Bush II's Vice President. Defense Secretary Gates is a holdover from Bush II. It is my concern that the military conflicts that the United States has become engaged in since the end of the cold war--to Ronald Reagan's credit not to Bush I--are financially destructive to U.S. interests, and might have been avoid without an oil and homosexual drift of U.S. foreign policy. I believe the homosexualization of the military that Sect Gates supports is a Bush I continuing putch--or at least began by him.

It iis comparatively remarkable that the straight Ronald Reagan increased the U.S. Military significantly yet the United States did not lose trillions in foreign wars and thousands of dead. It is possible that the homosexual influence on military policy when substantial leads to mal-adroit deployment of force designs. I have no idea if that is some sort of leather-fetish s/m influence or not. Those Pat Buchanan ads may have been a warning we should have heeded. It required a Bush league approach to spend trillions on reconstructing Iraq and Afghanistan.
