Obama-Ryancare Light on Healthcare for Poor

Republican congressional efforts to transform the massive Obamacare health policy into one made to financially benefiot the well to do and scuttle anything resembling easy free health care for the poor and lower middle class seems like phase two of Republicrat efforts to saddle Americans with another structure to bind themselves into servitude to the 1%. President Obama and his Democrat sycophants installed phase one with p[romises of sugary things for everyone except the rich and then phase two arrived; Republican renormalization efforts for the bill to transform it into advantage for insiders.

It is amusing that CNN and others have noted the tax breaks for the rich; democrats voted 100% to make Bush II tax cuts permanent with only Bernie Sanders dissenting so the pretense that democrats are anything besides one side of a two-part government to enrich the rich is not very credible.

www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2017/03/the-cbo-slaps-a-red-card-on-the-republican-repeal-bill/519357/

Probably the entire Obamacare nonsense should be scrapped and a material free public health care system for the poor built up from V.A. and community clinics. Then everyone would be free of the Obamacare tax-bill. Government non-profit hospitals for direct provisioning of the poor is the cheapest, simplest way to provide medical service. Those that can afford private treatment could still buy insurance. Government generally should not be buying insurance for citizens since thats a real haywiring interference in market economics in ways political philosophers probably havent even researched to logical exhaustion.

Doesn't Obama-Ryancare Work Against Free Enterprise?

When people are required by government to a product by the millions isn't motivation for free enterprise competition to drop the cost of the product undermined? Obamacare just-charge-it and live for the day economic attitudes along with collective bargaining theorists felt a price decrease of product insurance could be attained with all Americans compelled to buy health insurance. The theory was probably wrong over the long haul for several reasons foremost of which is the fact that mandatory product purchase kills the need for suppliers to compete to drop the cost to consumers and instead goads them to increase cost and to not invest in inventing better product in order to decrease cost.

Healthcare inventions and improvements of technology are stimulated by competition to a certain extent. Instead of health care costs for the top 100 insults to health reduced to Walt-mart prices, with Nixon-Bamako-Ryancare they may remain quite high for a long time adversely effecting global public health.

The U.S. Government should just expand and coordinate V.A. and public community treatment to provide for the poor and anyone that really can't afford health care. In a free enterprise self-help democracy that is probably as far as it is reasonable to go. Lung Work-Around Paradigm

Lung Work-Around Paradigm 1

It would be interesting to research the idea of introducing oxygen directly into the blood stream bypassing the lungs. That would enable physicians to work on lungs off-line while a patient with pneumonia, cystic fibrosis etc. could remain alive without breathing.

If one has nearly complete blockage of lungs with pneumonia or jell afterwards experimenting with using unconventional treatment such as hydrogen peroxide delivered locally to burn up some of the insulting substance might be enabled if the lungs were not needed for breathing for a while.

Some sort of portable rebreather that is designed to deliver and monitor returning blood oxygen and other gas (levels) could be made to plug in at some point of connection where it would replace lungs temporarily, entirely if needed. I am unaware if the technology exists already (it should), if it is feasible if it doesn't, or who would invent it. Existing heart-lung machines might serve a similar function. If the heart is healthy one might need only a synthetic lung. It might better be reduced to just an oxygen delivery unit without the lung-bag though, in the form of an efficient rebreather/concentrator of scrubbed atmospheric oxygen. Then one could walk about while the lungs are experiencing chemical-biological cleansing and blood is being reoxygenated by a discrete unit-pack.

The technology might be useful for manned space missions to worlds without human-breathable atmosphere or if existing in an artificially reduced metabolic state..


Good luck.

Sustainable, Renewable Destruction of Life on Earth

Many politicians use the buzz words sustainable and renewable to expropriate the environmental vote unto themselves. Oil and gas are sustainable and renewable; Saturn and Uranus are full of hydrocarbons that could be clumped and delivered by space-drone tugs and flung down-to-Earth someday like meteor goobers flaming through the sky to SUV filling stations. The reason for sustainable and renewable as desirable ideas is largely lacking from political understanding. That in brief is the need to keep life on Earth viable with a full, healthy ecosphere ins as if it were a disposable, edible creme puff.

The ecosphere is under attack by humanity in a way comparable to the way bacteria in a petri dish attack and consume their growth medium. Basically the drive to consume is non-rational and insatiable. Such non-thinking guides the corporate world and is not improved by either capitalist or communist political philosophy.

Globalism today is largely the bacterial cultural over-consuming everywhere it can. Nations are firewalls that in theory might be the organizational basis; the only strong organizational basis remaining, wherein resistance to the destruction of the ecosphere or takeover by robots and A.I. might be developed. Human organizations without the land standard equivalent of the monetary gold standard are floating social relativistic and inherently corruptible. Nations with the land standard of political civil of individuals in democracy at least have some basis in reality.

Some such as Stephen Hawking believe in error that one government for the entire world is the only way to stop A.I. takeover and conserve the ecosphere too perhaps. One government would just require one takeover by A.I. hackers to take down the human race. It would amount to a dictatorship at any rate.


Restoring the ecosphere to health requires ecological economics within a directed, regulated, incentivized free enterprise economic welfare state. That is a tough idea to sell of course yet maybe the only way short of dictatorship that life on Earth may be able to survive in the long-run. Remember that just because a politician uses the words sustainable or renewable that it does not mean they understand that keeping the ecosphere intact (all the plants and animals) and non-extinct, is the reason.

What Trumpcare Should Be

The replacement for Obama/Romney/Nixoncare health bill probably will pass into law within a few weeks, yet it would be better to dual boot a new health care operating system that actual works for the poor and veterans at low cost while scaling O-R-N down to include just those too sick to insure. NPR funding should be eliminated and used to be of benefit to public health.

Scaling up VA Hospitals and Community Health Clinics large enough to cover all those earning fewer than 15,000 dollars annually at no cost in public facilities is the most realistic and cost effective way to cover the uninsured while creating a good public disaster emergency hospital system.

As it is the really poor and homeless generally fall through the cracks while a zillion PTSD veterans go without quality psychotherapy and social well- being adjustment counseling as well as getting whatever drug packages deemed able to modify their brain experience positively. The corporate approach to treating veterans and the poor is likely to be less than entirely effective.


It is said that Obamacare created unequal treatment and protection of the law based on age such that older people would be denied treatment available to younger treatment, and that a primary difference between Obama and Trumpcare is that the prosperous would pay the same as the poor without age discrimination at all. Seemingly a rob Peter to pay Paul approach is equally ineffective and harmful to the majority of Americans.

On Central Intelligence Agency V7-Hacking Leaks

Julian Assange's wikipedia recently published C.I.A. hacking methods and content in redacted form on-line in what was named Vault 7. The body of C.I.A. hacking documentation may be genuine or possibly fake news since it would be possible for experienced hacking consultants with some C.I.A. information to invent such material however unlikely that might be. If the expose' is true then it might be Mr. Assange's get-out-of-jail card that will allow him to emigrate from the Peruvian embassy in London where he has lived as a refugee from the law and extradition for several years.

I was initially one that regarded the wikileaks publication of the Snow and Manning files as an accomplice in espionage. The international law situation of multinational acts of espionage make the legal standing murky. Plainly the new material act as a kind of counter-intelligence operation enfilading the C.I.A.'s ineffective security on their own operations. Those that drink the kool-aid are not supposed to divulge contents of the secret sauce.

https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/

Much will be written about C.I.A. violation of foreign and perhaps domestic civil rights to communications privacy and the danger to human liberty that entails and rightly so. It also allows one to infer that Chinese, Russian, British, French and Saudi intelligence are likely to be working the same activities.

So President Trump may have been right about Bamako-era spooks hacking his campaign. Seems that anything occasionally connected to the Internet is a tool for the voyeurs of government cyberspace. Maybe Julian Assange will be granted a pardon eventually from the White House along with Mr. Snowden for providing the dangerous public service of letting the U.S. public have a look inside the secret world of government surveillance encroachment.


Lawmakers may want to take action to assure that stolen information is carefully and impartially reviewed by unemployed and retired Americans acting as part-time contractors in a blind-juried sort of way in a way comparable to jury selection.

More Problems with Marxist Dialectics

Dialectic is two part; dialectical unity is something of an oxymoron. There never was a requirement of a single reply to a thesis. There may be numerous counter-thesis emergent whenever an idea makes it to the social realm.

 Marxism in borrowing Hegel's paradigm of the world spirit realizing itself tried to formalize his own application with something of a pseudo-scientific-rigorous method for credibility's sake I suppose. It was inefficient then and was rather terminally, permanently flawed.

Marx's fancy way of saying that some political states and circumstances have opposition had no implicit points in support of an ideal political state (such as Hegel believed in Germany of his day to be (in error) when U.S. democracy was actually the highest then extent political evolution). Dead reckoning and pure intelligence have no necessary association with ways to inductively configure some political formula.

Checks and balances are something of a joke in an era where plutocracy has bi-partisan support and the .1% own or control about everything in economics. Ordinary people have no idea nor capability of realizing the way things are such that they would chose good and appropriate policy for the day. That in my opinion would be ecological economics.


Consider just the issue of illegal immigration to the U.S.A. Millions of illegal workers take labor jobs away from Americans and gut wage negotiations. Being largely from a dry 2nd world nation they have few if any ecospheric economic education nor tendencies. However leftist Democrats support them as do the rich for different reasons. In the case of Democrats they fail to factor the extra environmental costs of consumption of non-renewable resources by illegal aliens nor the effect on the body politic in failing to add up the ecological economic calculus of each individual. The illegal aliens are less well educated than Americans on ecological economics who are in turn themselves rather dull to the point of insensibility as they support cars, highways, sprawl and so forth.

Consider First Corinthians Chapters 12 and 13

Chapters 12 and 13 of First Corinthians concern spiritual gifts such as speaking in tongues and prophecy. The Apostle Paul speaks well of them yet notes that they are temporal and pass away. In fact he warns a little about using them too well without love. He wrote that love is a more excellent way in chapter 13.


Chapter 13 is one of those that are jaw-dropping when one considers that it was written in the first century and is unmatched in quality by any non-Biblical writers of antiquity. Paul actually meant what he wrote too. Shakespeare could write some pretty fair blank verse 1500 years later that at times approaches the literary quality of the apostle, yet of course without the meaning. Shakespeare's paradigmatic axis was comparatively lacking.


1 Corinthians 13King James Version (KJV)

13 "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."

Zillary Defeat Deniers Want Special Russia Prosecutor

The last thread of hope for Hillary loss deniers to overturn the election of President Donald Trump is the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate any possible relationship between Donald Trump and Russian efforts to subvert the Zillary campaign with true propaganda email's hacked from her unsecure private emails and the DNC. It is a rather silly wish since the sole way Trump could be subject to impeachment would be if he were found to have been part of a criminal conspiracy, with Russia and that is not likely. 

All top government officials are subject to internet hack attacks from numerous governments and private parties. Because of the Clinton-Obama antipathy to Russia and desire to wrest their Ukrainian heartland away from it, Russia obviously had a motive in hoping or working for the defeat of Hillary without any encouragement from Donald Trump. At the time the state department Hillary content was hacked Trump wasn't even running for office.


It is not criminal to influence elections publishing true information. It is criminal to hack into computers to get information obviously, however there is not even the most vague shred of evidence that candidate Trump did anything of the sort. Probably the Russians, British, French, Chinese etc were hacking into Hillary's private emails for years and years and none choose to publish the content and give up their view over her shoulder into the most private secrets of the U.S. State Department. Russia on the other hand might have weighed the pros and cons of publishing the data and decided in favor because it was a reasonably close election and like millions or billions of others hoped Hillary Clinton would lose and go back to Little Rock, Chicago or wherever at last.


It might be that the Obama administration and Hillary should be investigated for possible espionage ties with Bradley aka Chelsea Manning for the dirty work at military intelligence perhaps in order to advance the Obama homosexual agenda. President Obama commuted Chelsea-Bradly Manning's sentence his last day in office.


http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/06/politics/trump-approval-rating-russia-poll/index.html


The Presidential election cannot itself be overturned because of wikipedia leaks. If Trumnp were impeached the Vice President would be promoted, and as the new President President it is not unlikely that Rush Limbaugh would be named the new Vice President after being awarded his medal of freedom.

Federal Reserve's Magic ET Satirycon (fiction)

When alien propagandists demonstrated they could create fake news to erase Earthly evidence of their conquest of Earth and its leader the Federal Reserve Chairperson, that agency was liberated to exploit alien technology to produce zero-interest electronic dollars by the trillions from zero-point space. That is the maximum, minimum energy value of the void if theoretically everything of value is removed from it. In that minimal condition the Federal Reserve chairman can summon a mini-big-bank effusion of e-dollars from virtually nothing. As the inflaton expands faster-than-light a fraction of a second because it is creating zero-interest space-time with it along with persons of interest to vote for it it deposit trillions of zero-interest loans into the accounts electronically crediting them with charged particles.

As the inflaton slows a cloud of obfuscation appears because the energy is still too hot to allow viewing of individual particles of light. Instead the e-loans in dark pools begins to cool down while expanding space-time. Trans-dimensional aliens direct the allocation of e-dollars globally to hidden accounts offshore where they can balance any irrational exuberance arising amidst investors on Wall Street with the cold reality checks of sobriety when the last bottle of single malt scotch lies pathetically empty in the gutter.

Fundamentally its all about genetics and splicing of Higgs vector bosons in a temporal field with Harvard Wu Soup research dancers. Applications of extra-galactic technology may keep economic lunches working good for the 1% into the unforeseeable future.

Decades ago when Boris Yeltsin was Chairman of the Federal Reserve an American Secretary of State was sent on an impossible secret mission to stop nuclear weapons development in North Korea. Armed just with a prickly, thorny rose she stripped down to dance config and danced for the dictator Kim II in exchange for North Korea giving up nuclear weapons construction and fourteen cases of Twinkies. Dictator Kim put a tip on monetary policy in her garter belt that became known as 'M-Theory'.

M-theory provided multiverse renormalization of home mortgage derivatives technique whereby the middle class and poor would be relieved of their abodes through defaults and swaps trading ownership with the 1% who would be financed by zero-point e-dollar multipliers in the Federal Reserve alien technology archive.

Dissidents were few to the expansion of planetary networking, yet they provided a steady-state barter Universe theory wherein trade would be based on corn liquor and honest cracker barrel content auctions at yearly meets on neutral islands.


Exsiders speculated the new Trump administration may implement T-Ball, Wall Street Dregulation Lawn Bowling oor Ecological Economics for course correction.

Genetic Breakdown in Formerly Elite Mammoth Populations

Even global human populations without substantial degrees of isolation may eventually suffer the effects of inbreeding or sharing bad genes if one extrapolates from a recent study of Wooly Mammoths on Russia's Wrangel Island.

http://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article?id=10.1371/journal.pgen.1006601

Apparently the ancient elephant-like creatures that were killed of at Wrangel Island Russia 3500 years ago compiled substantial genetic defects perhaps for many reasons such as bad diet, environmental conditions etc, and inbreeding. As all human populations interbreed and isolation from contaminated populations no longer exists as firewalls genetic decay may occur in the finite yet initially variegated pool as well. Natural isolation in moderation with adequate populations for sustainability seems good while no isolation even with large numbers may mass produce and share critical genetic errors. Obviously possible human extinction criteria do not resemble closely those of Wooly Mammoths.

 http://gizmodo.com/top-science-organization-releases-guidelines-for-geneti-1792343013

Maybe gene structures continue placidly unchallenged, unchanged and breakdown in effort to find adaptive change in circumstance of creeping environmental extinction.

Jacque Cousteau anticipated humanity has fewer than 200 years remaining before its overuse of the environment and technological development (such as genetic engineering, biological war, nuclear, etc) led to mass extinction. The poor Wooly Mammoths gradually faded away as humanity consumed them as mobile fast food platforms.

Congress Probably Would Flunk an Ecological Economic Exam

It would be a safe bet to say that Congress doesn't know what ecological economics is. For many in the two houses the term might suggest something like solar panels or renewable materials. Yes it can include such items however it means a lot more; in fact it is an entirely different way of regarding the economy as part of the environment (the world basically) where it occurs, including the ecosystem.

Air is a simply idea. Usually it’s not included in classical economics quantitatively for the entire world though it could be. If someone were to make a substantial impact on the ecosphere reducing or increasing planetary oxygen and other gases, production of air fit to breathe it could be measured.

There are finite quantities of air, water, land and biota on the Earth. One can compare the amount of ecological goods available to the number of users of the finite ecosphere and its ecological goods and determine what the budget for use that is sustainable is with various scaled population and use factors- if the goods natural renew themselves (such as a lake that refills after rainfall).

Good ecological economic policy would provide work for citizens sustaining the environment and wildlife with all the value it has with D.N.A. structures uniquely configured plants, etc. in addition to usual jobs manufacturing items that make life easier or more interesting.

Ecological economic criteria do need to have government set guidelines and coordination that fit within a Democratic, free enterprise social paradigm in order to sustain a continuum of creative human progress. Contract criteria for work that supports sustainability and has low impact on the ecosphere that is adverse or destructive is a good vehicle for transforming a classical, non-renewable economic infrastructure to one that is sustainable.

Fundamentally the Democrat party isn't any more aware of the deeper nature of ecological economic procedures than the Republican Party, though the Democrats flirt with conservation and renewable energy items enough to try to attract voters to their general policy of concentrating wealth in a global plutonomy while destroying U.S. sovereignty.





Europe; Leftist, Squishy, Needs U.S. Help?

If Europe threw a hissy fit after Trump administrative upgrades for visitors to the U.S.A. in order to make terrorism more difficult to perpetrate here, it did not need to go so far as to consider making it requisite for American visitors to the old world region it has rescued twice from German hostile takeover. Yet it may be a benefit to Americans if Europe does that since more Americans will travel to Alaska this summer instead of Europe.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/european-lawmakers-threaten-visa-rules-for-americans-in-spat-over-travel-policies/2017/03/03/0f13d546-0038-11e7-8f41-ea6ed597e4ca_story.html

Old Europe has been an expensive project for the U.S.A. to invest in since the First World War. Often Americans have wondered if Europeans could quit letting their latent Neanderthal side dominate affairs without going to the bipolar opposite course of homosexual marriage and some sort of incapacity for general political reason.

Make no mistake; Germany has the best pastry in Europe and would dominate if there were fair, unbiased Universal competitions. Sadly, pastry excellence is insufficient qualification for ruling the troubled region. European resolution for worldliness without ecological economic transformation yet with a decline in Christian values while acting as a catalyst for Muslim migrations and simultaneously seeking to annex Ukraine and perhaps other parts of historical Russia and debasing individual citizenship in comparison to a concentration of wealth is problematic.

Old Europe has been squashed down twice in the 20th century by political elites sometimes clashing with other political elites. Adolph Hitler was a surrogate for the aristocracy deposed in the First World War’s end and that Frankenstein project got out of control. The left in its infatuation with Trotsky-Leninism decided that nations rather than elites were the problem entirely misdiagnosing the a-lect of the dialectical cycle of history enabling overcompensation from the b-lect for several decades.

Global today is the left’s idea in the United States for progress. They have substituted corporate elites for political elites that became unpopular as monarchies on soviets fell on hard time. Globalism is fundamentally a tool for letting a planetary oligarchy or plutonomy own everything while in turn the masses of people become powerless through relinquishing their nationhood.

Globalism has always existed since there was a world realistically. Nations however are political constructions that let a body politic have inalienable political rights unless they give them up through weakness, moral incapacity or ignorance. Though nations are strong and have strongly defended boundaries the world still may coexist peacefully with trade and tourism. Today’s globalists claim that the alternative to the unfettered planetary domination of wealth is isolationism however it is isolation of citizens from their own national right reason and properties of civil rights that occurs when the 1% have the world as their oyster and the masses are shifted about as cheap labor without a right to own anything or even in time to have sovereign democratic political rights in a republic.


Today a popular leverage tool for the globalism for the rich is to use Russia as a villain to prevent the practical global smooth flow of commerce and trade amidst sovereign nations with strong national ecological economic values. At the end of the cold war the Clintons and Europe sought to take Ukraine a third time from Russia in a century following up on that last accomplished by the Nazis in the Second World War. It would make sense for the U.S.A. to form a free trade policy with Russia in order to allow Miami to Fairbanks to Irkutsk high speed electromagnetic tube travel (and onward to Europe). That too would be globalism even if it occurs with strong U.S. sovereign boundary protection. It is not necessary that Americans are weak and indolent, doped up homosexuals to let the fake brave new world globalism bring happiness to the miserable. Rational actual global facilities for all travelling from their own nations with strong ecological economic policies can develop too as a better alternative to the world vision imagined by deathocrats and plutocrats seeking to rule as a corporatist central committee.

Russian-American Free Trade Act and Senator Jeff Sessions

Democrats have discovered a cache of documentation about two meetings by then-Senator Jeff Sessions with the Russian Ambassador in Washington D.C. and have called for the Attorney General to resign-. A reasonable request for a party taking up where Joe McCarthy left off in hating on the Russians (and Donald Trump). In theory the party reasoning goes something like Jeff Sessions met with the Russian ambassador to plot to put Hillary's emails from State on an insecure private server so Russian hackers could buy the stuff from a dark web auction site with laundered C.I.A. money that would only be enfiladed after deeper throat met with a Washington Post reporter behind a closed door secured with plumbers tape and forward the emails to wikileaks that would then release it during Hillary's Presidential campaign thus winning the election for Donald Trump after the public got a look into Hillary's way of doping business and Clinton Foundation tours of the State Department for big foreign contributors .

Senator Sessions decision to possibly discuss political matters with the Russian ambassador is unprecedented; US. politicians strictly stick to a code of silence and never meet with foreign representatives to discuss politics when they have a big stick of nuclear weaponry in their pocket. The fire stick makes savages heal with big wamp-em. Good Senators don't meet with diplomats; they use N.S.A. surveillance to listen in on their dirty little secrets.

It is of coarseness possible that the Senator met to discover what the Russian view of certain political matters were concerning war and peace in regions of mutual concern. Yet until Russia concedes the Myrny diamond pipes to the Democrat national Committee they will be regarded as a rogue nation unlikely to permit homosexual marriage and atheist, godless domination by feminism and BLTs.

Senator Sessions might have simply yearned for peanuts, caviar and vodka that no longer are automatic freebies flying in first class. The Russian ambassador might have provided a decent snack and then suggested some sort of treachery such as a free trade agreement between the two nations. Jeff Sessions as a naive political innocent would not have known the ambassador was capable of persuasive subterfuge and was actually recruiting him to spy on and steal Senator Al Franken's jokes. Free trade agreements are tantamount to treason in the Democrat play book.


Revised freak trade might work with RAFTA though. Athletes, vodka, whiskey and raw materials could be traded freely while manufactured goods and c.p.a.'s would not. Russia could make quick and dirty lunar lab modules and heavy lift them to the moon base. Space X would provide transport for humans and supply. How many billions it would take N.A.S.A. to build a moon base!?

The Saved, the Secular and the Lost

Assuredly Christians have an eternal life with God to look forward to even as they may be troubled by nefarious secularists that believe godless atheism is the best thing since a computer chip. Christianity itself is a little troubled by the lack of upgrades to the delivery of the gospel from that essentially unchanged since the era of feudalism when so many were illiterate. Today of course many Americans have been programmed by the broadcast media and have something of a functional philosophical and theological illiteracy.

 One of the sad points of the Obama era was that there are those with the wrong belief that unrepentant L.G.B. church goers are saved. There is no mistake that aberrant sex beyond that of heterosexual is sin. In order to be acceptable to God and His Son at the minimum one must cohere with the will of God as expressed in the Holy Bible/gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That means that one cannot be an active, unrepentant homosexual. If one is then one is most likely not saved, for one never had faith and grace enough to quit that sin.

I would think however that if one were saved at some point and truly denounced all sin, even if one slipped at some point later and committed sin yet and repented that, they would still be alright. Being reprobate though; actually denying that sin clearly enough defined in the Bible is OK. and acceptable to God and the Lord Jesus Christ, and believing that one is saved seems silly. One might as well be a Muslim and consider praying five times a day in a supine position facing their neighborhood Wal-Mart is OK. Muslim practice.

Eternity is a deep game. Some cosmological physicists regard the Universe as having been created from nothing; the void and perhaps its zero-point energy. With historical evidence for evolution they regard the point about God as res judicata; such superficial philosophical, theological and even scientific reasoning makes them hardened in their faithlessness and nthus they become malevangelizers of the word of oblivion. Eternity is a long time without time however existing trancendently beyond the physics of the mortal coil. True faith shall have its just reward while so mayhaps, that which is true wickedness.

Genetic Engineering and Chess Middle Games

 It is challenging to anticipate who will qualify for the remaining seven slots in the 2018 challenger’s tournament; the world’s number two and three ranked players chose not to compete in the qualifying grand prix tourney this year-currently in progress, leaving just three remaining ways for them to become qualified to enter and try to win the challenger’s and the opportunity to play world chess champion Magnus Carlsen in November 2018.

The challengers 2018 has perhaps nine players that are or have been ranked over 2800 in the competition, plus 17 year old next-gen Wei Yei who is on Magnus Carlsen’s pace of advance in the ratings. Before Yei turns 18 he may equal Carlsen’s 17 year-old rating of 2780. People expect Wei Yei to challenge Magnus Carlsen for the world chess title between the years 2022 and 2030 with the interim being filled by one of chess’ mystery players with enigmatic motivation and purposes such as Fabiano Caruana, Alexander Grischuk etc.

Chess has many faces in its book of ages. Transitions three and four levels deep arise with discovered checks and double attacks appearing as if a chess engine designed them. In that regard a chess board is like the human genome; changes through genetic engineering of the human genome to correct error structures/positions may lead to discovered and double attacks because of the complexity of relationships across the helixian board with time  and the complete complex of compresent pieces arrayed.

Chess is however like a multi-dimensional tic tac toe game devoid of other intellectual content. Unlike the actual void with a Higgs Field and zero point energy and virtual particular energy a chess board has just eight pieces and eight pawns with two colors and little charm, different motion freedom for pieces and some pawns sharing with electrons the inability to occupy a given space or orbit with same has determinist characteristic like those of genetic genome paradigms that cannot continue after select phase changes or in some circumstances any phase change at all. To lose one’s pawns and pieces or genetic bearing is effectively to lose the game without residual zero point energy from which to attempt a Universe restart.

Within deterministic structures without super-conduction, common structures such as power transmission lines, it might be desirable to discover some way of sending internet transmissions and affixing Wi-Fi capabilities ubiquitously. One may debate pros and cons of politics that are empowered to fund research of such matters or energy even when the era is dominated by a party of unrepentant sinners versus another of repentant sinners each trusting their leaders to enrich themselves and global oligarchs who shall rule mankind in a Soviet Union style fusion-corporate jazz utopia replete with dramatic pathos.

Hidden temporal dimensions wherein are hidden discovered chess and genomic attacks on the body politic exist for-themselves in any generation. Kleeping a balanced ecospheric and social economy is challenging through continua of leadership incapacity of popular governing bodies. Thus regular progression of players advance to challenge the reigning champions of the day from the basis of an historical pyramid of plays differing mainly just at the top.

Fallacy of Adequate Taxes and the Welfare State

A modern state requires a lot of tax dollars to pay for making it work; keeping the flow moving together. Public spending is like the lubricant in an automobile engine. WIthout engine lub the independent parts would grind away with much friction.

Public spending in the wrong place creates inefficiency in the economic and social engine of a nation. Too much lube and too few engine parts doesn't work for progress. Cutting taxes to ridiculously low levels with a 20 trillion dollar public debt with a belief that reductions in 'welfare state' entitlements can be exploited top create a balanced budget and eliminate the public debt is silly.

Wealth in America is progressively concentrated with Republican and Democrat Party policies from leaders reinforcing the trend. Media sycophants and manic political leaders seem to want to keep mob hysteria and polity divisiveness gpoing over non-economic issues. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/hillary-trump-foes-keep-resistance-persistence-n725436

 Democracy is about the well being of the majority and politicians shouldn't be ashamed to pursue rational policies in behalf of the majority.

The richest 1% are said to have more wealth than 90% of Americans put together. The poorest 73% have most of the debt. Washington politics primarily benefit the ultra-rich and globalism.  It has been said that 50% of the people of the United States share just 1/2 of 1% of the national income.

Democrat politics under the Obama administration slopped the poor and anyone they could reite or put out of the work force without adding to unemployment stats. Even so they focused on enriching politicians and the most rich sigining off on Bush II tax cuts with enthusiasm. Republicans simply like to berate the poor and starve them with a misbelief that good jobs are easy to be had with effort. Those that are comfortable and well do do cannot imagine that real effort can pay off with virtually nothing in the U.S.A. There is no objectively even field for work and individual progress over the course of a lifetime any more.

F.D.R. got a 90% tax rate on the rich and only very sklowly didi that decrease over several decades. He did create something of a welfare ethos since the private sector put millions on the bread line with the depression.

With a 60% tax rate on the 1% government could reallocate capital to ecological economic policy actualization through private enterprise rather than just welfare payments. Government could set paradigms for business bidders to fullfill that would be financed upon winning competetion. Today though the Trump administraion should create incentives for business to higher those out of work the most time, first. Real nationalism means taking up policy that benefit the majority of the people rather than the ultra-rich that tend to have globally allocated portfolios at any rate.

The people of the United States should try to keep some sort of reality in their thinking about what concentrated wealth and power means. The nation's founders revolted against concentrated wealth and power of British aristocrats. Several revolutions that shaped the modern world were against concentrations of wealth and power that reduced ordinary people to the status of peons or slaves. 

Some have said that if one is happy living in a political manure pile one shouldn't stick one's neck out. The media tend to pacify the public when they are stimulating panic or hate, yet it is intelligent analysis that too often or generally is lacking. One needs to be circumspective too about current events in regard to history. Perhaps no one in the U.S.A. should have more wealth than 300x that of the average. Maybe corporations should be limited in size to 5000 employees.

Can Inflation Occur With E-Dollars ?

A modern state requires a lot of tax dollars to pay for making it work; keeping the flow moving together. Public spending is like the lubricant in an automobile engine. Without engine lub the independent parts would grind away with much friction.

Public spending in the wrong place creates inefficiency in the economic and social engine of a nation. Too much lube and too few engine parts doesn't work for progress. Cutting taxes to ridiculously low levels with a 20 trillion dollar public debt with a belief that reductions in 'welfare state' entitlements can be exploited top create a balanced budget and eliminate the public debt is silly.

Toward Better U.S. Middle East Policy


I have limited time today to write so this incomplete note; A month prior to the Islamist assault on the U.S. Embassy and C.I.A. station at Benghazi Libya Senators Graham and McCain extolled military intervention in Libya as a reason to militarily intervene in Syria. Evidently they did not comprehend the situation of sandals on the ground in either Libya or Syria. Before military can work to bring about a non-violent peaceful transition to democracy within a global Facebook webpage empire the U.S. need airdrop in crack Democrat Party liberal elites to supervise and coach the inexperienced neophyte godless atheist young professionals who must locally lead their underverse Muslim brothers and sisters to full liberal accountability as good citizens.

American leadership apparently were clueless about Syria before supporting military escalation of that conflict that led to the deaths of a quarter of a million people or so. They didn’t like Assad because he is authoritarian-yet there were reaso0ns for that such as that any middle eastern Arab government must be authoritarian if it is to exist-even an ostensibly democratic one for some time if it is to survive and put down attacks form dissident elements within and extraneous violent military interventions from without.

Americans perhaps didn’t realize that when Syrian boundaries were invented by the British in the aftermath of the First World War Sunni and Shi’a Muslims were thrown into the same bag as it were. Historically Middle Eastern sects and tribes of patristic societies were not all that comfortable with one another unless forced to live bucolically under authoritarian rule such as that of the Ottoman Empire or Saddam Hussein and his Baathism. The minority Alawite population needed to have an authoritarian power to let itself exist along with an antagonistic Sunni majority. For the U.S. to support democracy in Syria was fundamentally to support religious democide and purging of a religious minority. U.S. leadership should instead support a reconciliation of the British-set Syrian boundaries such that each party gets a fair viable portion of Syria. I believe that Jordan should rule the Sunni portion for a century.

Many war-mongering leftist corporatists of the Obama administration and media seeking war and removal of the Assad government did not realize that besides securing a Syrian peace-that now would require an authoritarian Alawite government for the Alawite-Shi’a-Christian part of a divided Syria simply to reduce the number of Sunni truck bombers for a century since the area is saturated with liberated c-3 and c-4 from Iraqi and Libyan arsenals-the U.S. should support just those nations it has a real responsibility for such as Israel, Iraq, Syria and possibly Kurds in a state of their own, with military support. The Sunni nations otherwise must find their own natural balance and battle it out for-themselves. America can only practice constructive engagement and be a good example if possible.

American foreign policy following the end of the cold war hasn’t always been enlightened. When President Clinton for example used a political rohipnol to get Boris Yeltsin to relinquish its soft southern parts as Vladimir Lenin had done before at Brest-Litovsk to Germany, the opportunity for long-range positive progress with Russia in economic and security issues was forfeited. Apparently the urge of Butch Street to snatch and grab land while they could was irresistible. They may look enviously at the remainder of Russia’s natural resource wealth and choose to engage negatively in the long range using military power and sanctions to make unreasonable demands upon Russia such as being happy to give it all up in the south and not share Ukraine even to the Dnepr. Russia also has Syrian allies and that was a point against them too when the United States sought to follow a Pollyannaish policy of Arab transition to democracy non-violently.

It may be that some U.S. leaders resented Bashir Assad’s support for insurgents in Iraq. Yet most of the Middle East hated American military intervention there and regarded America as overly supportive of Shi’a in Iraq. For many Sunni conservatives the Shi’a should not exist at all and should rather become Sunni. Assad was however an Alawite leader in a majority Arabian Sunni state. He needed to walk both sides of the line in a tightrope act to keep Iranian friends and Sunni too happy enough. He erred in supporting the insurgency of course.

Iran may have been pleased with the harm to U.S. interests of the insurgency in Iraq yet simultaneously concerned with suppressing it enough to cooperate with the U.S.A. U.S. leadership may have help precipitate the Iraqi invasion of Syria that left more than a million dead and a little payback might have been regarded as being in order. The U.S. may have felt that Iran got its just deserts for taking the U.S. embassy hostage during the Iranian revolution. And Iranians hated the U.S.A. a little for the Eisenhower administration’s support of the restoration of the Pahlavi dynasty to the Peacock throne early subverting the Iranian democracy in the process.

Plainly where the U.S. intervenes militarily beyond its own areas of existing special interest it just throws accelerant into the fire of Arabian confusion, chaos, populism morphing to Islamism etc. It ISIS were to become an established government anywhere the Reagan doctrine might contain it and more easily destroy its leadership if it comprised a threat to the U.S.A. or other N.A.T.O. countries. Human behavior and degrees of Muslim fundamentalism are variables and constants too. N.A.T.O. should defend Europe against Muslim infiltration, yet also constructively engage the Middle East to restore the 95% of Syrian refugees that live in the Middle East to get out of the camps and return to Syria.


Conflated theories about causes of conflict in the Arab spring wars and the worth of military intervention should not be allowed to bring the U.S.A. to throw more munitions and temporal targets that vanish and reform like some kind of amoeba composite. The desire for populist revolt against authoritarian regimes finds resonance with not only emergent godless atheist yuppies but with Islamist radicals that can politically organize best in the sanctity of mosques. The Arab Sunni states will need to balance themselves with evolving forms of states. When the U.S. intervenes it just resets the entire cycle of authoritarian, aborted democratic movement/fundamentalist revolt and so forth. In practice democracy exists in Arab states when a military that is westernized supports it. The military intervenes domestically whenever Muslims become too powerful and want to move toward theocracy. The formation of democratic political institutions is challenging and requires long-term tech support to just grow out of isolated economic and social submission to repress government, royalty or global oligarchs.
