In the New World economy House Republicans seem to want to cut taxes on Corporations so they can invest in China. With cinched profits investing in Chinese business, Wall Street can just phase out the interests of U.S. workers and the middle class. Democratic safety nets can be gutted, on the job training in new factories requiring corporate investment avoided and the environment of America sold for pulp and ore profits of foreign governments.
As in the ante-bellum economy a large cheap workforce overseas lets America’s corporate oligarchs enrich themselves as a class. Of course the exploitation process isn’t so efficient today as in 1850; the Chinese are taking the majority of the profit. The oligarchs share the wealth of Chinese power and share the exploitation with the majority of Americans.
Since Wall Street Republicans have converted the U.S. economy into a slum(p) they have allowed unemployment to rise nearly to 10% in the U.S.A. They dumped a load of national debt in the Bush II years and perfected policies to plunder the U.S. regulation of economic honesty in addition to cutting taxes to a going out of business in the U.S.A. level with visions of sugar plums in their oligarchic, greedy minds. When the U.S. economy becomes really second rate then the military allegiance will be directed toward reinforcing the new economic center of effort in China and India; Kentucky’s Ft. Knox may have Red Guards at the gate to protect its assets.

Natural Gas Pipeline from Alaska to Anchorage or Canada?
Alaska has experienced the growth of ideas for distributing public energy resources about the state and a few on sending gas to the Canadian pipeline system with a connection from the North Slope. Seven billion dollars was the price mentioned recently to construct a pipeline from the North slope via Fairbanks to Anchorage for a 24" natural gas line. A pipeline through Canada might cost 30 or 40 billion, and the environment more, yet it would let additional Canadian fields tie in and supply gas to the 48 states when or if the U.S. is thoroughly dependent on it.
Whenever I write on these topics its a good idea to make a sort of disclaimer on the general manner in which politicians and business develop energy resources in Alaska. Because there is so much and pervasive habitat loss, and extermination of species biodiversity along with the decline of health of the ecosphere as a result of the traditional way of advancing cultural economy and energy production I support a different way-one that does not exist and probably won't. I prefer that human culture use its best ideas to adapt to the new empirical facts of life rather than inertially continue the way it always has. Yet it is those terms that one must work to comment on real economic inertia of the era.
A vast global mining corporation is hammering away to develop copper claims in the headwaters rivers drainage to Alaska's and America's Bristol Bay and home of the nation's healthiest salmon habitat. Other miners force through upstream Canadian mines on rivers flowing into S.E. Alaskan waters. Mines tend to affect water drainage and leach toxic levels of metals creating future Superfund clean up sites lasting for generations or thousands of years. Yet if no life on Earth remains because of catastrophic ecospheric damage from other human activities it won't make a difference.
On Wasilla's KGB (Knik-Goose Bay) Road (this may be the street where the former KGB headquarters could be found leading some to say that you can see Russia from Wasilla) that leads to the Knik settlement developments continue with coal strip mining operations not too distant planned. Oil wells and roads all over the state allow increased access to destroy wildlife and ecosphere health fragmenting ecosystem and depleting fisheries health. The Yukon and Kuskokwim river's salmon crashes, and those of the Susitna River create the impression of another Washington State in progress with the military bases and toxic waste besides.
Most U.S. Presidential candidates don't know where the United States is located. In the early years of the U.S.A. presidents invested in the U.S.A. and built it up with activism. They also stayed out of protracted foreign wars. They sought to enrich the United States. They did not deregulate investment banking and corporations such that the nation's wealth would be relocated abroad like the Red Army relocating factory equipment from Germany to Russia in 1946. Today's U.S. Presidents don't know where America is at even if they land Air Force One here occasionally. The rich will get globally richer and the middle class and poor, poorer.
Alaska Governor Parnell has a plan to build a hydro-electric dam on the undammed Susitna River that drains the Alaska Range. I am unenthusiastic about that growing up in the Pacific Northwest along the Columbia River.
Washington State once had a Governor-Dan 'Strait Arrow' Evans, named as the medal of honor naval destroyer squadron commander who effectively attacked a Japanese battle cruiser in the Pacific in an epic naval engagement. Capt. Evan's body was never recovered, yet the spirit of national defense and of keeping the integrity of the states and its land and sea ecosystems health remains a goal of many Americans-except possibly in some states where globalists and anti-conservationists find it better to pimp natural resources for the most profit today.
Governor Evan's environmental policy was of the day-uniformed. Hydro-electric plants were built, and nuclear power plants constructed in excess of later need. Today we should know better and take a far more nuanced approach to building design, insulation and disciplined conservation and increase of natural resources with the eye to the future set upon low cost, high temperature superconductors.
There are alternate ways to deliver natural gas to Fairbanks and Anchorage for 7 billion. Building a rail line from Fairbanks to the North Slope for 7 billion dollars probably isn't one of them.
One might build a gas liquification plant on the North Slope as ecologically as possible and connect in some way to the Alaska Railroad at Fairbanks and send pressurized gas rail cars to Anchorage.
It would also be possible to build two or three large gas carrying icebreakers to deliver gas most of the year to Anchorage via water...ships don't cost seven billion dollars.
Obviously ice thickness experts would know how much of the year it would be practical to ship gas via Bering Strait to Anchorage. There are other issues involved such as noise from the ships introduced to the environment out of context and season. Some day quiet electric hydrodynamic engine ships that are quiet should replace the prop and diesel driven vessels.
It might be good to use Alaska's geothermal power and some private businesses are looking into that. The state might also create a geothermal resources department to support and stimulate use of that resource in an environmentally smallest practical impact way to produce electricity. Alaska is a state with a lot of geothermal potential.

Counter-Revolutionary Tax Cut Continua in Congress
The founders' revolution was against concentrated wealth's colonializing control. A Uhlerian supply excess profits for the rich side counter-revolution by wealthy globalists of a new world order cutting taxes for the rich, bolixing the environment and standard of living hopes for the democratic poor and middle class has accelerated in the two decades following the end of the cold war.
Dead reckoning of the day for raising taxes on the rich to a reasonable level informs us that a Romney administration and a Democratic House and Senate might be the best when prospects coincide to create a combined economic defense against national debt and tax policies tilted to favor the rich.
Taxation for an intelligent democratic society is a variable rather than a constant. Taxation on the rich and on other classes are set to keep full employment, national infrastructure, public health, environment and economy optimally performing. Until the era of voodoo economics after 1981 that was the national political policy of the U.S.A.
The Blitzkrieg of globalist outsourcing, tax cutting and illegal alien shock-troop worker immigration has left America's heartland bereft of high paying secure jobs for the poor and middle class seeking to own their own property, grow their own orchard and have a few cows and goats to barbecue with Fresnel lenses, solar power and soy-peach sweet and sour sauce much less own a quarter million dollar home and fat retirement investments.
During the cold war an oligarchy inclined rich needed the poor and middle class on their side against communist totalitarianism. With communism prevalently defeated the rich have turned their power of economic war upon the nation's poor and middle classes through a broad front of cultural devices.
Non-intellectuals existentialist consumer members of The Church of Lowest Mile Per Gallon Suvs
-perhaps 20% of the nation- will always be camp followers of the rich heedless of the political depletion of democracy around them.
Many politicians haven't good economic history sense and inflate wrong ideas.
This is the new age of irrational political economic management. Adam Smith's invisible hand has been upgraded into a no-brain theory of democratic economic supervision. Combined with anachronistic economic ideas grown in the ante-vellum and southern reconstructionist past, it adds up to an extremely weak no-brainer U.S. governance of 50 states.
South Carolina's Tea Party brewing Senator may be influenced by the state's economic history of slavery. Today's Americans who aren't rich are today's n-word workers regarded as wheedling benefits from the Mansion owning rich trying who alone have received the inspired word of globalism and The New World Order.
The ante-bellum way of Tea Party economic thinking is an economic paradigm in favor of defense spending in Charleston to send planeloads of junk to Iraq and Afghanistan cause the military be good defendin the rich. The inspired word of corporatism may distributed through defense sub-contractors from Tibet and Mongolia.
If taxes can be cut so the slaves/former slaves (they are of all races today) have to get off they buts and work for the wages the rich are charitably willing to pay (10 cents an hour without health benefits or breaks?) the budget can be balanced.
Luckily Sen. McCain brought then Alaska Governor Sarah Palin into the mess of oddball alternative Republican politics to help form the Tea Party and bring illuminating, deep economic and social reasoning into the economic management team. With Senator Jimmy DeMint (he bring da monies and issues da coins to the po folk spare), Rep. Bachman and a Godfather's Pizza CEO the Tea Party has a fine counter-revolutionary intelligentsia searching for ways to cut taxes, part out the environment enrich the rich.
The Earth is disposable income for the elect because Jesus Getty will make a new Earth for the rich after the final tax cut and beatification of the first oil wells. In the Church of the Biggest SUV Jesus Getty said 'Spend the environment like there is no tomorrow for sufficient unto the earnings report is the balance sheet thereof.'
South Carolina has innumerable good people living in it. It has the best natural ecosystem for human dwelling year round located in the U.S.A. South Carolina before 1860 was a slave agriculture based economy very slow to recover after the civil war. Obviously they had no political candidates during reconstruction claiming to have dabbled in witchcraft, yet neither were they quick about renouncing and reforming the cultural dichotomy that made oligarchy an inertially reinforced social phenomena. Today that tradition blast intelligent U.S. economic reform and undermines democracy in the U.S.A. It is a globalist disdain for what should be a nativist economic infrastructure growing with an optimization of science, environment, social and spiritual values.
I should mention why slavery in the modern era was so vicious to the human spirit...slaves were bred-human beings were bred and owned as property. That is existentially of the set of ultimate evil. Reducing human life to a status of meaningless practico-inert bio-mass tools is Satanic.
In the primitive era slaves were taken in war as a compassionate conservative alternative to killing captives. In savage unlimited war there can be no repatriations of prisoners of war. In the modern era of slavery war was not the reason for slavery-economic desire by the most powerful business and government predators was the motivating cause for the social institution of dehumanizing human life.
With so many free trade pacts abroad Business has little reason to manufacture in the U.S.A. It is far cheaper to invest abroad and ship to American consumers now.
With so much cheap illegal migrant labor available their is little reason for anyone in the south to pay more than 2 dollars an hour for labor in millions of situations.
With so much advanced communications technology one may scan data objects for specs and make a cell phone sending the specs to China and have the new product made and Fedex'd that day back to the U.S.A. to a customer. The same situation exists with custom made sump pumps and a zillion other products that formerly were made in America. It is cheapest to get data for custom products in America, send it abroad to a very cheap production facility and ship the collective product orders to the U.S.A. on same day air.
The farm and ranch sector is increasingly owned by global farms as well. Jobs that cannot be outsourced are given to cheap illegal alien workers. The U.S. Government has failed to direct corrective economic measures that would defend democracy in America with the tools of capitalism and free enterprise intended to enrich the populous rather than to concentrate wealth or sedulously outsource political and economic sovereignty.
What is a mystery is why President Obama did back flips for extending tax cuts for the rich in December 2010? The present budget negotiations should not even be taking place.
Increasingly the interest in creative jobs in the United States is nipped in the bud by pragmatic economic concerns. If an inventor starts manufacturing a new product it will soon be cloned in a foreign factory or the new business going public will be leveraged and bought out or a hostile takeover will cut its workforce and relocate to Shanghai or Mumbai, Buenos Aires or Vietnam. The ignorance of the decline of the United State's economic prospects for those that are not rich is acceptable to the new class of globalist drones with visions of a non-human version of capitalist political philosophy in their heads safe for aristocratic rule over an acquiescent android population.

The Back Up Plan For Afghanistan
The war to conform Afghanistan to a new world order that is more Babylon the Great friendly and less blow up thy neighbor inclined was necessary from some points of view because of Osama Bin Laden's Al Qa'eda attacks on September 11, 2001 in the United States; Os Bin Laden and Al Qaeda were based in Afghanistan though all were immigrants if they even crossed the Afghan border, so the logic went that because the Taliban would not give up Al Qa'eda we needed to support the Northern Alliance to defeat it with military support. We would then transform Afghanistan into a nice place before we left and it returned to the usual ignorance, drug growing, violence and terrorist conspiracy nurturing.
So the financially maladroit policy may be wound down. Americans could decide to defend their borders to keep the next horde of suicide mufsidoon out. the nation may try to spend its next 4 trillion war bucks in ways that make the U.S.A. prosper.
One could change select nouns as variables in this paragraph and apply it to Afghanistan... The brilliant plan to Vietnamise the war depends for success on how well the ARVN will perform against the insurgency when U.S. Marines return to the sea. American and alliance forces broke the back of the resistance during the TET offensive.
The new war and exit plan (Afghanistan)is entirely original and sure to work.
In case it doesn't a plan B should be dropped into the picture. If we are smart we will help the former Northern Alliance and others needing refuge from adverse Taliban-friendly forces carve out a Switzerland for mid-Asian Moslems of Afghanistan so they can remain free at an affordable long range cost for Americans.
The majority of post-American Afghanistan will be able to view the liberty and prosperity of Northern Afghanistan and compare it to their own probably Taliban led government without corporations beneficially mentoring society.
The United States will be able to send persuaders to visit terrorist bases if needed. Maybe 20 or 30 thousand U.S. forces in N. Afghanistan by 2014 would be sufficient to provide security.
There are several reasons why a Swiss model defensible, neutral and free N. Afghanistan would be a good idea politically to stabilize the region. Maybe they can become a regional wind and solar power energy exporter.
Well-its one spare backup plan.

A Note on Einstein's Lambda Force
J.D. Barrow explains in his 'The Book of Nothing' some facts and history of Einstein's development of the Lambda force in the context of developing the general theory of relativity (on page 180). He had already explained that {geometry} = {distribution of mass and energy} in the universe as regards the shape of space as a fundamentally theory before upgrades. Because Einstein wanted to make his theory fit nicely with Newton's gravitational theory he tested it with Newton's values and found that with Newton's inverse square law plugged in his simple universal model couldn't form an unchanging universe. So he invented a new force with an effect opposite to Gravity that he named Lambda to balance out the values of the equation so the universe could have a steady state (he didn't know the Universe is expanding).
Barrow writes that the Lambda force was postulated to increase with distance. I haven't read that anyplace else as simple said and find it remarkable. I had thought that the force increased with time accelerating the expansion of the Universe because of the reduction of the masking effect of gravity when mass was more broadly distributed in smaller bits of mass.
What kind of force increases with distance and why? What logic might be found in that?
The best thing I can think of immediately is that Lambda and gravity together comprise a field like that of the two poles of magnetism. The force might exist in extra dimensions.
Another possibility is that space time is displaced by gravitational contraction of mass in some way and accelerates space in other directions in compensation. Lambda however is generally regarded by physicists as some kind of force that is yet undetected. It would be a nice power particle-wave for space ships I would think, given enough time. Yet what direction or dimensions space-time(if really unified) is apt to travel in when accelerated by Lambda is hard to say I'd guess. Maybe it accelerates the expansion of smaller dimensions as well?
Another note I want to make on Barrow's book is the description of the man who first predicted the Universe is expanding based on his own mathematical interpretation of Einstein's General Theory. Alexander Friedmann made the theory and was credited before dying at age 35. Friedmann made a high altitude scientific balloon trip that damaged his health. That seems like a remarkable incident itself as it was at the edge of mankind's access to the horizon of being.

Power/Desalinization Potential of Mexico's Mt. Popocatepetl/Capital & Land Use Protocol
I have wondered occasionally if Mexico will develop the geothermal energy potential of the volcanicly active Mt. Popocatepetl as part of a trans-continental Pacific to Gulf of Mexico pipeline siphon fresh water making system.
Using saltwater to make steam and generate electricity with rightly located Mt. Popocatepetl's geothermal source would provide a lot of fresh water to condense for human drinking and agricultural use. The water removed from that incoming up from the Pacific would need to have some of the its lost flow power in the downhill compensated for with electrical energy made with the heat to help pump it uphill.
The heat energy input from volcanic vents to a generator facility perhaps through liquid sodium filled sealed pipes (just guessing) could add the energy needed to steam power generators, produce condensable water vapor, collect salt and replace the lost water volume on the downhill side of the flow needed to keep the water continue to flow uphill.
The Gulf of Mexico has a lower sea level in comparison to the Pacific-maybe because of the spin direction of the world the water piles up in Acapulco and environs. Perhaps 25% of the uphill flow reaching the top might be diverted for generating energy and water...only a guess/not a physicist. Having lived in around Washington State's Columbia Basin irrigation project years ago the idea of irrigation sources for greening select deserts natural arise now and then.
The relationship of money in relation to other currencies and to capital theory and political policy formation is rather interesting in some respects.
Intelligent land use for the benefit of society-perhaps within a utilitarian paradigm-is not a pursuit of the use of money of necessity.
In Quincy Washington-a little town at the heart of the Columbia Basin, Microsoft built a computer server facility changing the nature of the agricultural production dominated Quincy Valley potentially. If some day the valley's formerly worlds most productive farmland per acre after the desert was irrigated by Grand Coulee dam powered water delivery is overrun by subdivision constructed by illegal aliens-is that a good use of farmland and the Grand Coulee dam's energy and water?
Maybe a difficult to answer question, yet relying upon the valley of the dollar to determine the most effective land use for environmental or food production vs industrial or residential use won't work. The dollar's value is a completely dumb selector of land use values.
Farm land and intact ecosystems require political determination rather than monetary policy for intelligent management. It is amazing that the idea that abstract compilation of money and its distribution would in any way serve to provide rational land use policy instead of intelligent political and social design-as if money or capital were sentient-is taken seriously.
Isn't there a fundamental relationship in capital criteria regarding empirical values of real estate that works to bury farmland under industrial, urban and residential building, streets, parking lots and permanent, lifeless structures?
New housing per square acre tends to be of far more short term value than farmland. Developers buy and build on it. The farmer takes the balloon cash payment-his income otherwise for producing crops takes years or decades to produce as much cash eqv. The farmer also has more risk.
Once the farmland or ecosystem has been buried by construction it is nearly impossible to recover for farming without the renewal force of war I think, wherein the buildings are obliterated and a general mess remains.
Buying the buildings in order to remove them for farming would be cost prohibitive unless the world is basically starving and the value of food increases more than that of buildings.
High technology is also generally of very much higher capital value than real value to life, as it is also worth more per acre of use than farm produce.
I grew up in the era before small computers or cell phones existed-it was basically a better nation then. A world without computers would not be second in quality of life comparisons, yet with the world population explosion computers help keep people alive/with that offset by the capital value criteria determination of values leading to the burial of farmland.
Computers serve to advance health technology, yet the overall high-tech world is a less healthy world for biological life forms. Humanity in failing to allocate its land use and materials technology wisely is painting itself into an evolutionarily unhealthy and maybe catastrophic corner.
When technological progress advances to make prior technologies obsolete-as computer hardware will become obsolete along with fiber optic cables, the buildings still remain over the forgotten farmland, even as industrial and obsolete technology slums.
In the future quantum computing may be accomplished within the atmosphere itself with universal access for all individuals wirelessly. What the world will be like then-overpopulated, badly utilized with pervasive rotting slums and an exterminated ecosphere is hard to say.
If one relies upon accidental development through capitalism's invisible brain as Adam Smith might have described it if he were alive today and someone else not as concerned about supporting egalitarianism versus oligarchy, the world's farmlands may decrease until the scarcity of food makes the value of food worth recovering farmland. Unfortunately with the concentration of wealth and because the wealthy will be able to afford food while everyone else is starving, farmland may not be of much value to the people enough capital to afford the housing and remove it.
Interference and diffraction of land use rational planning and ecosphere integrity may develop fragmented, inefficient islands of food production enterprise dwindling amidst an inchoate temporal egression into farmlandic oblivion.
Using saltwater to make steam and generate electricity with rightly located Mt. Popocatepetl's geothermal source would provide a lot of fresh water to condense for human drinking and agricultural use. The water removed from that incoming up from the Pacific would need to have some of the its lost flow power in the downhill compensated for with electrical energy made with the heat to help pump it uphill.
The heat energy input from volcanic vents to a generator facility perhaps through liquid sodium filled sealed pipes (just guessing) could add the energy needed to steam power generators, produce condensable water vapor, collect salt and replace the lost water volume on the downhill side of the flow needed to keep the water continue to flow uphill.
The Gulf of Mexico has a lower sea level in comparison to the Pacific-maybe because of the spin direction of the world the water piles up in Acapulco and environs. Perhaps 25% of the uphill flow reaching the top might be diverted for generating energy and water...only a guess/not a physicist. Having lived in around Washington State's Columbia Basin irrigation project years ago the idea of irrigation sources for greening select deserts natural arise now and then.
The relationship of money in relation to other currencies and to capital theory and political policy formation is rather interesting in some respects.
Intelligent land use for the benefit of society-perhaps within a utilitarian paradigm-is not a pursuit of the use of money of necessity.
In Quincy Washington-a little town at the heart of the Columbia Basin, Microsoft built a computer server facility changing the nature of the agricultural production dominated Quincy Valley potentially. If some day the valley's formerly worlds most productive farmland per acre after the desert was irrigated by Grand Coulee dam powered water delivery is overrun by subdivision constructed by illegal aliens-is that a good use of farmland and the Grand Coulee dam's energy and water?
Maybe a difficult to answer question, yet relying upon the valley of the dollar to determine the most effective land use for environmental or food production vs industrial or residential use won't work. The dollar's value is a completely dumb selector of land use values.
Farm land and intact ecosystems require political determination rather than monetary policy for intelligent management. It is amazing that the idea that abstract compilation of money and its distribution would in any way serve to provide rational land use policy instead of intelligent political and social design-as if money or capital were sentient-is taken seriously.
Isn't there a fundamental relationship in capital criteria regarding empirical values of real estate that works to bury farmland under industrial, urban and residential building, streets, parking lots and permanent, lifeless structures?
New housing per square acre tends to be of far more short term value than farmland. Developers buy and build on it. The farmer takes the balloon cash payment-his income otherwise for producing crops takes years or decades to produce as much cash eqv. The farmer also has more risk.
Once the farmland or ecosystem has been buried by construction it is nearly impossible to recover for farming without the renewal force of war I think, wherein the buildings are obliterated and a general mess remains.
Buying the buildings in order to remove them for farming would be cost prohibitive unless the world is basically starving and the value of food increases more than that of buildings.
High technology is also generally of very much higher capital value than real value to life, as it is also worth more per acre of use than farm produce.

The Invisable No-Brainer Theory of Market Economy Governance Guiding Congressional Capitalism
The present U.S. federal budget troubles are a logical results of the morphing of the invisible hand into the invisible brain of capitalist management of democracy. Losing one's right hand to the secular economic cult demi-urge so the invisible hand and invisible brain of irrationality can replace it coincides with the advantages that deregulating investment banking, mortgages, trading and other financial instruments can bring to concentrate wealth and exploit millions of poor and middle class Americans.
Irrational no-brain economic management as the best way to manage the U.S. economy is the core of Tea Party ideologues and Wall Street Republicans as well as libertarian trans-party gay militants in government. Grim strait singles may find the future somewhat claustrophbic. The alien pods have produced their fruits. The new world order is looking for non-conformists.
Tea Party B league Republicans struggle pulling sled of tax cut politics for their rich global masters. President Obama jumped for joy in December 2010 extending tax cuts for the rich. The new irrational gucci shoed Boston anemic zeno laywers of trans-finite infinities have a happy face on it; starbucks with whip creme, blackberries, condo and stock portfolios.
The consequences of irrational democratic economic managment are not that difficult to predict. It is a recurrent classical form of political corruption that arises periodically in history.

Republican Plan B for Federal Debt Ceiling: Make President Obama The Designated Driver
Sen. McConnell's plan to vacate Congressional responsibility for federal budgeting letting President Obama set the federal debt limit himself is a little like the alcoholic turning over the keys to the carmageddon during Friday night bar hopping to the designated driver. Yet there may be a deeper, darker motive...
President Obama faces the prospect of personally signing off on more public debt to any world government in history by raising the debt limit himself a few trillion. Such an onerous task ought not be the burden of one blamable individual.The responsibility belongs to the Congress as set forth in the Constitution.
The Banana Republic drift of the Congress to perennial incompetence isn't a confidence building programme.
The range of the strong force equals the size of the largest atomic nucleus. Larger atoms and atomic elements cannot exist because of that limit. Quarks and their color inside protons are what the strong force color force act on. The relation of the Congress to the President on raising taxes and cutting spending is not dissimilar.
The range of congressional quarks to determine the size of the federal budget nucleus is mediated by gluons or I.Q. cogitation in representative minds. They may expect that a tighter budget cutting color force bonding will stabilize actualized economic elements, yet quantum protocols restrict the ability of nuclei of various sizes to exist without appropriate quantities of quarks. Neither can global economic super-positioning appear to pay off the strong force deficits by increasing spending of gluons with borrowed strings from extra dimensions.
If that seems complex or like fiction-well it is no less real than Congressional budgeting competence these days.

At the Boundary of Certainty (poem)
Before one p.m.
gathered in quantum levels
fit together like puzzly pieces in standard sizes
wave particle travellers in permissible sets
elements aggregated within universal nets
statistical lattice works of mass space
dimensions timing
attracted and repulsed
structures with dynamic tensions rhyming
In the midst of immeasurable nothingness
ice was to form on the surface of the deep
nothing overhead; an expanse forever sweet
In spatial momenta of silent darkness
zero-point voids
counting questions of monastic tarp
quarkstrings rezound
zen like questions of being and uncertainty
waves of appearances downloading from eternity
Profound-The One knows why all answers change questions
meanings too
why roads to the edge of everywhere stop
short of time
with incompleteness new
Spatial structures built with zero G
within an Escherian domain
Lambdas for increasing reason
converting purpose the energetic season free to boundaries of certainty named
expanding dimensions upon more stark plains
dimensional membranes wherever refrain
paintings of thanks for the Lord's infinities
and locally actualized limits
placed like containment vessels-
scales that fallaway when ripe.

Karmodo Dragons of Carmageddon (poem)
Warm occluded fronts seem like a paradox
high pressure arctic cold moves to low pressure systems
where the water molecules have room to move
I don't know
warm moves toward the cold
as if explanatory causality was reversed from low to high
high pressure cold and high pressure hot
low pressure wet and snow winds rent
in the south
warm fronts stimulating lizards, komodo dragons and wind moving like carmageddon
a century from Santa Barbara
emitting worse now than then
until the exhaust afterburner converts mechanical energy and carbon
without much ado to clean air products
cool, without heat
a world without much of an atmosphere
like that
when the bridge falls.

Natural Resource Use/Free Enterprise Primer
The government may sell natural resources even if the private sector has resources of the same kind. Gold from Ft. Knox sold after a federal budget default may deflate gold prices privately held. Oil from the strategic oil reserve was sold intentionally to drive down fuel price by increasing supply-I was against that incidentally.
I am writing about natural gas-not oil. There is a huge difference.
Making petroleum from oil involves quite a lot more processing than natural gas that burns right from the tap. The cost of building a bullet pipeline from the North Slope to Anchorage would be seven billion dollars, and half of the gas would be sold offshore perhaps and it might be necessary to build a new LNG plant and deepwater supertanker loaf facility, yet the people could buy cheaper natural gas with intellligent planning for a century. The state can sell its resource directly to the people and on the spot market to shippers.
Alaska has already had a 35 year relationship get a royalty from oil from the slope they let private corporations extract and ship out of state. Alaska has very high gasoline prices and is running out of oil supply-this is all very bad resource management policy including new offshore oil drilling and the potential for environmentally devastating oil spills in the future.
I will write here on the basic free enterprise/citizen relationship to natural resources in the public sector...
About Natural Resources And Free Enterprise
It might be useful to revisit a few of the basic practical concepts of free enterprise in this era where some Americans it means to get a paycheck from Wal-Mart or Exxon-Mobil. Adam Smith had practical ideas that resources and liberty are best used by everyone if kept free from big business bullies in corporations, gangs or government.
Individuals need private, personal resources to make their experience of life comfortable and or meaningful. Individuals require a healthy ecosphere and laws that keep gangs, collectives, governments and corporations from owning everything and making slaves of everyone. The public on an equal basis should have first free enterprise use of natural resources without being jacked by a technical, legalistic way to dump all the natural resource goods to a few.
Natural resources of a democratic society originally belong to the people (though some might say that the people belong to the resources). Air, land, water, and natural gas in abundance on public lands fall under the jurisdiction of public governance.
Unfenced frontiers given to settlers for work and making corner markers without onerous auctions that just the rich would win, rivers free flowing for all boaters and to fill urban water taps because the resource was not sold to Global Water Corporation Unlimited-this conservation of public natural resources requires environmental security defense and resource management to assure that the citizens might have the best opportunity for the use of the resource to freely construct their own valued prizes of leisure, of business travel, of energy etc. without permission from or payment to the Imperial Corporate Power organization.
It would be wrong and a betrayal of public trust for a government to auction off those resources en mass to the highest bidder in effect giving all of the chips at a discounted value to the rich.
Natural wilderness resources of the Americas as they remain will best be conserved. If natural resources are used egalitarian access to provide equal opportunity for citizen free enterprise is of higher social value than allowing an exclusive, global corporate ownership through idiot auction to the rich.
If the resource is non-renewable such as natural gas in Alaska then the state should provide access to the resource on public demand that will reinforce to the most egalitarian citizen resource access.
Free enterprise of a thousand souls generally creates the better odds for creative invention than when a thousand souls work for one rich dude. Allowing natural resources to be controlled by extreme limited access private interests endangers the political liberty of the many.
Free enterprise is a simple affair. One simply improves one's life with available resources. The more resources available to the public the more opportunities a soul has to get heat in winter, grow food in summer, have water to drink and so forth. it is important that public resources be protected and defended from destructive large scale exploitation to keep the resource fund alive.
Free enterprise does not require sale of merchandise. Sale of assets is a secondary activity from the store of personal property one has built up-usually the goods are exchanged for something one wants and does not have or a cash proxy.
The advantage of free trade is best found in an environment of abundant natural resources in which an individual may best find useful articles and materials to manufacture articles that would meet needs not answered by unmanufactured articles.
When cultures lose sight of common sense foundations for free trade and mistake purely abstract trading circumstances and practices that gain advantage for individuals positioned to exploit corporations to lever social and physical environments the free enterprise interests of the many and well being of democracy is reduced.

Parallel Lines In Budget Talks Never Meet Unless They Move Closer
Euclid's fifth postulate that parallel lines never meet was taken as the guiding principle in forming the federal budget. It was determined that experiments could be made to confirm this economic fact keeping Democrats and Republicans from agreeing to raise taxes on the rich and cut spending simultaneously on things the rich get out of government's revolving doors.
History informs us that Al Michelson seeking free education in science at the Naval Academy hung out on the White House porch waiting for President U.S. Grant to return from walking his dog to ask for an appointment to the academy. Grant affirmed the wish and sent the young scientific genius off to Annapolis where he could began his career leading him to develop speed of light measurements useful for Albert Einstein later in formulating the special theory of relativity.
Michelson did not need to make use of Fitzgerald-Lorentz contraction of mass theory that explains the contraction of mass in an accelerated state to build debt management models for the U.S. Government on how to balance a budget.
Eleven dimensional tranches (payment priority levels) for debt repayment-an Enron sort of federal budget management process on steroids was not the way things were done in the early part of the 20th century. Can infinite lines or quantities be accelerated? Can the national debt or ecospheric health be reduced by accelerating change? Derivatives formulations of inventive genius in accelerated deficits to balance federal budget field theories would not get Nobel prizes for decades.
Lucy Dominguez Von Ricardo was motivated to replace the world's system of longitude lines with parallel circles maintaining spacing as latitude line do, without convergence at either planetary pole. She required financial support for the noble project, hence the Von Ricardo plan's conception...
With a finite number of credit cards she experimented in Michigan Malls on her Iron Law of Tax Cuts theory that increasing credit debt and tax cuts would pay off public and private debt locally and finance the Von Ricardo longitude plan with profit outsourcing purchases and financial products to strangers abroad. She proved the formula and made credible experimental predictions of its outcome; that space-time (down the road right from Chicago) would warp debt around the sun bringing parallel lines together on its far side when the Mayan Calendar ended in 2012- unless non-converging circles acted as temporary counter-warps.
Parallel lines as super-size spaghetti even if extended to infinity in one or both directions lengthwise-will never meet unless the distance between them is reduced to zero like spaghetti in a package before one takes it out to prove Euclid's 5th postulate.
It was discovered that infinite strings of spaghetti placed parallel in absolute space look like they are parallel only if viewed on a cookie sheet or comparable surface of infinite 2 dimensional size. In three dimensional space the viewer can see parallel lines move together and then draw apart if circling around the parallel spaghetti strings in three dimensions in the space shuttle Atlantis. Thus a number of possible, apparent solutions to the approaching federal debt default crisis August 2nd may appear to work until viewed with sobriety August 3rd.
A compromise solution to Euclid's 5th postulate overcoming obstacles to bringing parallel lines and budget negotiations together without using non-Euclidian geometry was accomplished with a magnificent speech by right honorable Senator Zbighoop Breezpluto comparing the national debt to the historial day the Roman army was captured, released and made to walk in shame back to Rome by another Italian tribe (Rome eventually recovered though). The idea was that the debt is an immanent danger and better economic management is required.

Future of the World 44% Off
Dystopian and utopian scenarios are useful tools for science fiction writers; they apply for the real world too though.
A case in point is the present August 2nd Federal Budget Default branch-will it crash or won't it? The predictions for a crash are dire economically speaking, yet that is another branch. All I can repeat here is that a true default is anticipated to reduce revenue by 44% in a worst case. Alternately that is a best case scenario for the rich able to surf through the wave of crisis and able to make a profit on it beside.
And it seems that armadillos are leprosy transmitters. That harmless pre-historic American marsupial can make you one of the unemployed, or if not that it can raise your medical costs.
So can HIV. Failing to provide HIV prevention pills tested in Africa to American homos and imported drug addicts that cost a quarter per day lets the disease increase. Scientific American reports that more 45,000 new cases of AIDs occurred in the U.S.A. in 2009. I hate to think of the cost of treatment for those individuals infected over a lifetime.
The cost of keeping a prisoner is jail for a year is about $35,000 a year in the U.S.A. I believe that some AIDs drugs cost two or three thousand a month. In other words keeping people with AIDs alive may cost about as much as keeping prisoners in jail. If one has an unlimited budget and desire to pay for increased insurance cost and medicare taxes it might be reasonable to not spend anything on AIDs prevention, otherwise its better to spend the quarter to reduce the chances of getting HIV 73% in the American south were over half of the new HIV/AIDs case occur.
New York, California, Texas, Florida are infectious hot spots that should invest in AIDs prophylaxis through the use of the preventer pill as well as rubberized member coatings.
Sure we know that moral breakdown is also a cause of HIV, low tax rates on the rich and the federal debt. Curing moral failings is improbable without faith in God. Too many musicians have invested in breaking down social morality with bad lyrics. All that can really be done would be to have instrumental only radio stations provide just music and no brainwash to the masses.
The future with budget failures and concentrated wealth may evntually return society to a condition of chaos and drastcly reduced population globally though designer virus or some other high tech dissent to an oppressive and totalized new world order. At least that is the probable way a world government and a world with declining natural resources will be subject to political change.
I have thought of writing a science fiction story on that theme, yet in a way covered that in 'Cross Purposes' already-a little. I prefer utopian scenarios and extra-galactic travel now to on-planet political doom and ecospheric destruction...the U.S. Congress though is a perenial Hatfields-McCoy sort of bi-partisan feud with dummies on either side sufficient to stay bogged down in the sand traps of D.C. (the most dense AIDs population concentration in the U.S.A. too reportedly and explaining why the government now and probably the military in the future will be looking for federal homocouple health benefits).

I prefer utopian scenarios and extra-galactic travel now to on-planet political doom and ecospheric destruction...the U.S. Congress though is a perenial Hatfields-McCoy sort of bi-partisan feud with dummies on either side sufficient to stay bogged down in the sand traps of D.C. (the most dense AIDs population concentration in the U.S.A. too reportedly and explaining why the government now and probably the military in the future will be looking for federal homocouple health benefits).

Aristotle and Theological Controversy Over Nothingness
I hadn't any idea before reading J.D. Barrow's 'The Book of Nothing' of the historically volatile issues surrounding the controversial question of could a vacuum exist or not-who would have thought?
Evidently the question of the existence or non-existence of a vacuum-of real empty space such as today one might regard the mass of the Universe to exist in, has drawn along not only scientific opinions to opposing sides but theological sides as well.
Aristotle seems to have believed that empty space could not really exist and locate such as might beyond the Universe surrounding it in a meta-universal cosmic void. Fair enough. Theologians over time were silly enough to be drawn into the issue believing that nothing could not exist because it might imply some sort of inability of God to control something (or nothing). That is, nothing could not really exist as that would mean that there was some part of the creation called nothingness beyond the power of God. Theologians believed that nothing is not beyond the power of God (or maybe that describes atheists today better), or rephrased, that everything including nothing is within the power of God. Barrow points out that word games and poems also evolved around the theories of nothing.
It is the scientific dialectic involving research into vacuums and barometric pressure that stimulated science and philosophical speculation too. Torricelli, Pascal and Descartes were at time advocates of different paradigms, yet material researches led to inferences about the nature of the environment for themselves with a decrease in theological conformity in an Aristotelian paradigm.
Does a true vacuum exist with nothing in it? Perhaps not in this Universe with its emergence of virtual particles, passage of neutrinos and a pervasive gravity field.
Perhaps the apparent vacuum in 3 dimensions of space is suffused with six extra, smaller dimensions and a field of quantum energy as strings or brane fields. Goodness, the appearance of a vacuum may again be a four dimensional interpretation in human cognitive context of the Universe's distribution of power.
Without air mice and men perish in a vacuum. Without caloric action mass dies down toward the absolute zero direction eventually. Maybe the low state of comparative pressure and absence of mass comparatively provides a pragmatic rather than a philosophical vacuum yet those are the sorts of things one needs for practical knowledge of the 'weather' conditions of the Universe.
A James Webb space telescope may provide more answers to questions about the deep structure of the Universe so we don't need to rely on just scientific sectarianism as a kind of post-Aristotelian scientology for making intuitive judgments about the 'weather' within and without the Universe.
Today, with political progress in Washington D.C., if one feels strongly pro or con on theological or scientological opinions of the void, space-time unification, or empty space one may freely march to support or protest nothing or something about nothing without fear of political or economic reprisal-especially if unemployed. For now, nothing is safe for moral conservatives. The radical chic has moved on to other areas such as biology, atheism, abortion, homosexuality and concentrating wealth as its extremist global agenda.

Actualizations of The One (poem)
When time is an echo of mountain ranges
covered in snows of barometric shadows
silences await each step
receiving with nothingness memory of being
The budget balancing time's tide
flowing through the bay
distant hope on the horizon
beingness to unknown worlds
turning away from metric tensors of temporality
The seven letters of witness to The Messiah
with the other fragments filling baskets
being and nothingness, fishermen of rainfall
semblences seeming to catch portraits of experience
viewed from within and without
When everything and nothing rushes ahead
all at once waves gather in the currents offshore
ripples of matter infused with space
sending apart ideas forever to new time
flowing to the borders of boundaries
superimposed over infinite geometric values
casting topologies of infinite forms through tomorrow
a way someplace with the point of existence
actualized in action of The One.
covered in snows of barometric shadows
silences await each step
receiving with nothingness memory of being
The budget balancing time's tide
flowing through the bay
distant hope on the horizon
beingness to unknown worlds
turning away from metric tensors of temporality
The seven letters of witness to The Messiah
with the other fragments filling baskets
being and nothingness, fishermen of rainfall
semblences seeming to catch portraits of experience
viewed from within and without
When everything and nothing rushes ahead
all at once waves gather in the currents offshore
ripples of matter infused with space
sending apart ideas forever to new time
flowing to the borders of boundaries
superimposed over infinite geometric values
casting topologies of infinite forms through tomorrow
a way someplace with the point of existence
actualized in action of The One.
Gary Will's 'What Paul Meant'
This book will not inform you that the Mayan word for 'day' was 'kin' or explain Hubble's Law, what it will do is bring the reader to a vista of a worldview occluded for many today, and of a man who met the resurrected Christ -a view across the greatly interesting expanse of the life of the Apostle of Jesus Christ. This perspective is one we may lack even with decades of reading the New Testament casually, and even with faith.
Gary Wills published this book in 2006. Paul's confirmed letters-seven of the thirteen in the New Testament, were sent to the ekklesia (churches) within 20 years of the crucifixion of The Lord Jesus Christ. They are the first published works of the New Testament preceding even the books of the gospel by decades. Gary Will's book illuminates ideas about the circumstances in which the letters were written, and necessarily of the life of Paul. That is an excellent investment of time and thought for the faithful and even for those cultured despisers of belief.
If the New Testament was written by men, and if the books are what remain of fragments of more works, of historical captures of the oral history nature of the culture, Biblical scholarship investigating the order, manner and composition of that writing-not simply considerations and comparisons of books selected for inclusion in the new Testament and those left out, we may find the knowledge increases our faith in the grace of God allowing mortal man to experience some of the light of the revelation of God as Jesus Christ-the Messiah and convey it to future generations through the experience and writing of mortal man.
Paul encountered Jesus Christ personally-perhaps several times, in his resurrected, glorified body. His own descriptions differ from those recorded in the Book of the Acts. The Book of Acts was written perhaps quite a bit after Paul's letters and may be a historical capture of knowledge of events 'as told by' for posterity.
This book of discovery of 'What Paul Meant' brings the reader to experience the live context of what Paul meant in writing letters to several groups of believers that met in home churches as equals without rank more or less as part of working life mission as an Apostle of Jesus Christ.

Waveform Politics; Newscorp's Troubles
Rupert Murdoch's vast center-right wing media organization is one of a few that dominate the U.S. broadcast media wavelengths. Of course they are not limited to broadcast media but own cable and print outlets as well. Newcorp personnel in Britain caught with their fingers in cell phone data mining cookie jars scotched Newscorps takeover of B Sky B.
Fox televion and radio news is quite influential in contemporary U.S politics. Newscorp and the Tea Party may be losers in the approaching Federal budget default crisis receiving a significant portion of the blame.
Nationalism is frowned upon in national economics by globally owned media. Since U.S. media became owned by global corporations such as Disney and Newscorp the Congress and FCC quit upgrading the broadcast frequencies for the use of citizen journalists via Internet podcast rebroadcasts as technology would allow. Instead the wavelengths are dominated by global concentrations of wealth propagandizing Americans to give up their independence.

Levi Aron & The Bloody Crime in N.Y.'s Jewish Community
One would not want to think that the average New Yorker has such a social conditioning toward homicide that someone asking for directions at random might become a victim of a killer. That is one of the reasons why this very unusual (I hope) crime by Levi Aron-a Jew with an obviously symbolicly important name requires some thought.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/13/levi-aron-arrested-lieby-kletzky_n_897184.html
Of course the persecution of European Jews by government authorities rumor mongering sensational and untrue stories about Jewish practices including sacrifice of European children that were goyim (gentiles) was a recurrent feature from imperial Russia to Germany. That a 35 year old New Yorker might have sacrificed a kid as a spur of the moment thing-or perhaps the lost kid asking for directions was a fullfillment of a repressed desire of killer to sacrifice a victim in some way to recognize N.Y.'s new homosexual marriage law?, is a sign of the times perhaps. It is possible to imagine such crimes in humanities past though, as a darker trait.
New York City as a kind of epiphenomenal accretion of human civilization-over populated, dense urbanization, unsustainable food production or energy basis, is a kind of prediction of the future of the human race if they do not develop a steady state economy with full employment and a healthy biosphere. Religious freedom is a fundamental right and so too is the right of life. Often when human society becomes out of balance it has wars to change the situation without micro-reasoning subtlety. Then all of society become murders with approriate honors and sanctification for those that perish and those that work it with most valour.
Maybe Mr. Aron was just socially obsessve though-he does had that Loughner sort of look to him.

An Alaska Republican Government Against Free Enterpise?
Alaska's Republican dominated state legislature has a Republican Governor now to match up with control over state politics. On moral issues the state Republicans may be more conservative than democrats, yet on free enterprise they seem to be less innovative than Vladimir Lenin.
The state Republican government over the long run has created a reliance upon major international oil and gas producers for funding the state government. Funding the state government and sharing some of those oil and gas royalties with municipal governments often times seems to be the Republican idea of free enterprise in the state.
The present gas pipeline through Canada from Alaska's North Slope is the present golden idol goal for funding the stae Republican dominated government. They seek to have an Exxon partnered firm construct a pipeline to help get rid of the state's valuable fossil fuel remnants at low cost to global corporations; that is the Republican concept of free enterprise in Alaska-and the best use of public natural resources.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_gas_pipeline
The idea of conserving those oil and gas fields on state lands for use in the state of Alaska the next 300 years doesn't appear on the Republican radar screen at all. If a gas field developer were hired to drill and build a pipeline to Anchorage and create retail natural gas sales stations along the way perhaps for 30% of the value of the profit the people of Alaska would have very low energy prices and have a better free enterprise prospect than states or many nations with higher energy prices.
It is o.k. for the state to sell it public natural resources directly to the public. An Exxon or BP is no more a private interest ort entitled to cheap energy than the Alaska citizen that wants cheap propane to heat coffee to sell at his coffee drive thru. Cheap energy prices in one area can attract businesses that can pay tax revenues if needed to fund state government services that actually are needed.
Alaska's Government could set the retail price of natural gas sold at its partnered sales outlets. Natural gas sold at 50 cents per gallon with a stable supply would let Alaskans convert their gas guzzlers to burn 50 cents a gallon propane if they wanted too. They can also use propane in fuel cells (I believe) and have cheap heating energy for homes, businesses and greenhouses.
Obviously global warming and decay of the ecosphere are vitally important issues to consider in government today. A stable energy supply for even one state would allow government to address better ecological zoning laws development and policies that would encourage high insulation efficeincy in houses, prevention of leakage of heat outdoors, and a balanced state budget with liberty, justice and free enterprise jobs for all.

President Obama Line Item Veto Showdown on Federal Budget Debt Limit
With the approaching federal spending debt limit the President might start to develop alternate plans A through D on what to cut from the federal budget . Now is the time to round up his herd for the showdown at the o.k. veto-cuttin corral.
For a Ronald Reagan kind of guy with fast draw tendencies on line item veto'ing these are some of the things that might drop at high noon August 2nd, 2011; reduce military wages 50% (there is a year waiting list for enlistment and a 9.2% unemployment rate), to limit social security payments at total income for any individual of less than $18,000 annually from all sources, to withdraw all except 35,000 troops from Afghanistan-squaring aware the northern alliance and other persecuted non-Sunni citizens in defensible areas and letting the fledgling Afghan government fly free, cutting the Marines down to 50,000 and creating a new SF BOP force of 50,000 special forces rapid deployment specialists...the opportunities for specialized line item quality budget cutting and restructuring by a bold creative President is approaching August 2nd.
I am not certain if President Obama has the legal power to fund portions of programs and to redesign others. Getting more bang for the buck out of the present federal budget should be easy enough. The President must have good ideas and be chomping at the bit to get started on cutting and slashing federal spending his political opponents prefer and that are dumb so long as he increases employment and national security.
Perhaps the Congress can pass a resolution of support for the Presidential right of line item spending vetoes of unfunded federal programs and debt obligations to make his own budget duties balance.
