How corporatism and communism unified

  Hitler’s national socialist economic policy was corporatism. That is why Wall Street is so gleeful about investing with Chinese partners in a Maoist-Leninist NEP policy adapted to the 21st century. Each like to censor individuals with independent ideas. The 1% of corporatism and communism are about power especially when material goods are plentiful and easy to produce.

Communism and corporatism aren’t the same in structure exactly although they tend to produce the same results in repressing individualism and free speech eventually. Hitler’s corporatism and Chinese Maoist-Leninist NEP economics upgraded work well together. Wall Street enjoys the privatization of some of the Chinese economy and has partnered with it. The synthesis of corporatism and communism was quite a natural evolution. Toynbee wrote that the Universal phase is the last of of a civilization before its souffle’ like fall. Irrational exuberance can affect any herd of investors that lack the immunity of common sense and historical perspective.

Republicans lack the next J.F.K. for 2024

 Probably Donald Trump won’t run again in 2024 except as a spoiler. The best chance for Republicans would be a John F Kennedy kind of younger fellow. He should have some comprehension of populism and of interests that are important to independent and poor voters like environmentalism and border security.

That candidate should abandon the border wall concept and suggest an irresistible new concept of making a vast construction project with earthmovers and dozers along the border to construct a series of fresh water making desalinization-evaporation-condensation canals using pipeline siphoned up with solar power saltwater from the Pacific to New Mexico. En passant one would get real border security barriers yet also create millions of acres of new farmland for the U.S. southwest deserts and Northern Mexico and thousands of jobs during and after construction.

For some reason good ideas are hard to get in U.S. politics these days. Instead everyone relies on and has absolute allegiance to corporations and franchises-who will bring the marshmallow of the moon back to Earth to feed us all (ref Arthur Hoppe).

Economic interdependence isn't a basic precipitant of war any more

In my opinion economic interdependence of nations or clusters of nations isn’t much of a factor for precipitating military conflict today. I am referring to general wars rather than specialty or designer wars of a limited scope.

Present global interdependence is developing planetary collectivism and corporatism. There should eventually be a repressive minority of 1% ruling the world, and any sort of war would essentially be civil and, insurrectionist morphing to revolutionary. Such conflicts would require the breakdown of the economic order through sabotage initially and with the large planetary demographic fact only chaos and vast loss of life would occur by the billions from various causes.

Right now nuclear wars are the sole usual unlimited kind of general wars possible and those make losers of everyone because the weapons are too powerful for Earth. Therefore biological war is the only practical kind of war that might use direct and traditional criteria of military conflict, and biological wars bring wildfire demographically speaking and are rather inclined to bring mass human die off, chaos and so forth.

Perhaps social purge wars and such that draw the term fascist to them from the victims will be the norm for war-in-other-than-military-forms (besides economic wars to segregate undesirable members of society).

Adam Smith Didn't Foresee Corporations

 Corporations weren’t foreseen or existing when Adam Smith wrote ‘The Wealth of Nations’ or by the founders of the U.S.A. in writing the constitution. They have grown in darkness in a manner of speaking, undermining like a vast fungus or sinkhole underground the principles of democracy for individuals equally sovereign more or less. People wrongly believe they are the pinnacle of capitalism and fear addressing their monstrosity lest they be regarded as communist sympathizers. Karl Marx needless to say had no understanding of individual free enterprise and creativity and was something of a natural corporatist or collectivist himself. He merely wanted business and what would emerge as collective enterprises of corporatism to be owned by the public. Today the vast corporate/Maoist-Leninist global economic empire for plutocrats and other nefarious usurpers of democracy is the dominant fact unrecognized by most Americans at least.

Template for National Change; Soviet Union's Evolutionary Model to a New Nation

 I read about leftist radicalism in college. I took a few course on Russian history including one I made for an independent studies course on the History of the Soviet Union. I read about V.I. Lenin and Leon Trotsky. Those guys were leftist radicals. Isaac Deutcher’s three books on Trotsky are well worth reading, as is Trotsky’s biography of Stalin that continued to chapter nine, if I remember correctly, before an assassin from Stalin killed him in the middle of the chapter.

Will the issues the United States has today that are quite polarized stimulate lasting problems for the nation?

I fulfilled my statutory obligation to be in the military (reservist) eight years, and am a classical liberal of the 18th century sort with Christian values.

I have been an observer of U.S. politics pretty much about 60 years so I would be hard to convince that the U.S.A. has a paucity of leftist radicalism…not that it is very intelligent, original or well informed about the real state of political affairs in the U.S.A.

Observing the changes of the Soviet Union to evolve to what is present day Russia I note the rise of peaceful evolution to new nations and forms of government without war when it is in the best interests of the people “When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form,”

Is the United States forever the United States?

 The United States is no longer the United States; it was that before the rise of the broadcast media and the egress of the volatility of disposable thought and lives along the electric avenue. Modern mankind is adrift on an ungrounded political tectonic plate- a different place than the traditional America of the founders day with Christian values, books of philosophy, muskets and land to work.

The Congress has been radicalized by Democrats who have progressively changed House and Senate rules in order to maximize the use of force for temporary majority power. That one-vote takes all and foists whatever on the 49% minority has to make blue-red fan politics as routine as that of the Byzantine Empire that had two chariot fan political parties named for colors that fought over everything.

Globalists are something of pimp sophisticates yet humanitarian capitalists and neo-hippies liberating mankind from smallness and introvertedness and all unbig things. In a way globalists descry nationalism as something only a Hitler would seek, though he did aspire to be a globalist too. Globalists also work jobs planet-wide via the Internet and other ultra-modern technical ways including cell phones, so being an American is tough. Every alien is in telephonic communication live with the homeland and all of the people of that nation further reinforcing the notion that Americans are rather backward if not big-minded globalists who don’t give a sh-t about the state of the nation of people that live- America is a nation of immigrants it is known and no one is ever native except for the Sons of Geronimo (unknown in England).

It may be that breaking up the United States so the people can move to states with apposite politics and spending preferences regarding government size would be a good idea. It could be that traditional views of government that one takes from history- that they must endure forever and that one must defend borders to death while business is global and wise-guys flit about the planet on round-the-world plane tickets (remember when only birds could fly) is actually not in the best interest of modern U.S. citizens and instead clever reforming of their country to suit their own advantage would be a good idea when inevitable national dissipation seems in progress by degrees.

Maybe the U.S.A. is a work in progress with all of the concepts of creative destruction, too big to fail and ‘it takes a village’ (of globalists) leading to its gradual fading away as a kind of platform for the new world order. Loose borders and meaningless of private interests in comparison to corporate franchises, shares and social approval as a good corporate clone employee may just be and become.

Leftist radicalism is a fairly standard political form historically speaking. Attacking its use linguistically to beg the question of it existing at all is rather Orwellian or Stalinist, alternatively.

I am a simple classical liberal like that of the founders myself, and vote independent if there is anyone or anything worth voting for or against. I saw the way the Soviet Union evolved rather peacefully to a new form and wonder if the United States might not accomplish the same when or if it has become onerous or obsolete. Peaceful change and evolution of national forms could become the new normal and replace war or ruinous social decay as the default way nations end.

The United States may not be polarized enough to make those gradations of color permanent as lasers of various types. Blending all paint colors into one so their is a single mauve color so no one has anything to argue about may be the goal for the Superior man, I cannot say, therefor I will resume silence.

California; On the Question of it Being More Conservative than any Developed Nation

 Generally when I catch a bus from the Northwest to Texas or Florida I find some way to avoid going through California. It seems a little bit hostile these days.

I believe California is less conservative than Russia, yet I may be mistaken. Is North Korea conservative with a fairly disciplined near starvation regime imposed upon the people so they can afford eggs and nuclear weapons simultaneously? California is probably less conservative than Dictator Kim’s nation, and real conservatives develop nukular weepons. California has only borrowed a few nukes from the U.S. nuclear forces.

If one compares California to Canada I believe Canada is possibly more liberal and California takes the maple syrup frosting on that competition. Product du Canada- One can rely on those Canadians.

The First Century Biblical Apocalypse?

 Some people believe the great tribulation occurred in the first century a.d.

Revelation and the First Century (Preterist Interpretations of the Apocalypse in Early Christianity) by Francis X. Gumerlock (2012-08-02): 9781936577132: Amazon.com: Books

Jesus said that the prophecies of the end times would be fulfilled before the last of the generation, and they were. For some reason many Christians are completely blind to the great prophecies of the Lord. The present era is supposed to be that of the increase of the kingdom of God somewhat indefinitely.

https://digitalcommons.liberty.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1095&context=pretrib_arch

People have a difficult time with the Revelation. Martin Luther said it had a lot of straw. Some have made a career of interpreting the book as a great future fantasy. Ancients might refer to a comet as a dragon with a tail for example so modern take the idea of a space dragon literally seeking to eat the child of the women who fled to the desert. John had to conceal messages to the faithful from Nero, so his language was coded a little apparently.

Global Imperialists May Finally Have Got the U.S.A. by the B..ls

 The wealthy have insider technical positions to control global wealth and reinject it into their accounts. The vast accumulation of wealth is far more than ordinary people realize working on the clock. Capital increases faster than wages over time so that concentration of capital renders 99% of the people irrelevant economically speaking, except as workers and consumers. That means their political opinions are also largely meaningless as the only people they really can vote for are those approved by the 1% and able to invest the 2 million dollars average cost of running even for the lowly job of a U.S. representative.

To change the system to one where free enterprise and meaningful democracy can actually exist, where patents and inventions are reformed and available to any citizen without inhibitions of poverty, some sort of tax filter on financial and stock trade networks need be imposed- like a royalty tax on oil pipelines by the state, in order to share some of the wealth with everyone in the form of basic income and abundant poor people’s clinics for free.

Most people would rather be sycophants of the rich though in order to remain employed with advancement prospects. A one-time 20% tax on locatable capital would be satisfying yet inadequate to recover America’s drift back into submission to global imperialists.

On the Much Anticipated Decline and Fall of the U.S.A.

Is the U.S.A. in nearing its downward transition?

 ‘Journey of thousand mile begin with single step’; N.P.R.

Republicans have bad leadership that uses Christian fundamentalists through a little moral appeal to prop up globalist policies for the 1%. Democrats seek to flood the nation with all things Chinese and Latino in order to advance women to power through government legal advantages.

Republicans need to be more populist through moral appeals, ecospheric business and restoration and a strong safety net for the poor, yet they cannot. In my opinion the nation will morph into a meaningless international corn syrup product eventually.

Is China one of the world's most safe countries?

Depends what one thinks, says, and of course on politics. If one is a writer then it might not be too safe. If one is a philosopher or political theorist, spiritually minded or religious, restive ethnic minority or Tibetan objecting to Chinese conquest it probably is less safe. China could be good for Americans investing there obviously, and less so for Taiwanese seeking complete global recognition for their independence.

Offending the deep state of any country can result in organizational terror and degradation of one’s financial prospects. In my opinion though the Chinese Orwellian state and police authorities make it safer for walking about than many nations.

Dog with them in the car (poem)

cardboard box dune buggies

The Value of Intellectual Capital

 Human beings socially have only their intelligence to make things with if they are lucky enough to have natural capital resources. A paucity of intellectual capital puts people on equal ground with coyotes, sloths and porcupine. It is easy to take for granted the nature of material capital- manufactured and natural, and assume that even though creative destruction is a part of the phenomena of making life easier and more rewarding for humanity, that the quality of material capital or its effect on the ecosphere isn’t meaningful, and that is wrong.

Intellectual capital has been given a nominal value by economists of about 6 trillion dollars. World Intellectual Property Report 2017

Intellectual capital and social relations are quite undervalued though as a political economy’s effectiveness is a matter of the people and what they think-how they interact, more so that the dollar value of given computer software or knowledge of technical aspects of metallurgy.

Intellectual capital- spiritual capital if you likes, is the sustaining impetus for efficient use of resources and for inventions and improvements, recovery and reform, progress and morality that Jesus might find o.k. along with faith.

Reply to "Is Russia Located in Russia"

 The Rus were a people, possibly Vikings living around Kiev having travelled the Dneipr River downstream from Belarus. The Dneipr was an historically important waterway for uniting Slavs and Kievian Rus leaders. Their tribal name became eponymous with their political area. Russia of course grew to include Eastern and Western Slavs and numerous other ethnic groups. Those that spoke the Rus language might be regarded as Russian in a sense. Rus' people - Wikipedia

Kievan Rus' - Wikipedia

If Russia included the original territory somewhere between yet not exclusive of Sweden and modern day Ukraine one might say that no, Russia isn’t located entirely in Russia. Russia moved north and east for various reasons long ago and eventually a little bit south. The journey between the Baltic and Black seas was arduous and Ruthenia morphed somewhat.

Impeachment Isn't America's Darkest Hour

 George Washington and the people at Valley Forge experienced slightly more challenging times- they were America even in the midst of their revolt.

Events like 9–11 and Pearl Harbor certainly seemed bad. Optimistically one can expect that the worst times are all ahead-not necessarily in the middle of the Biden term of course, yet somewhere out there in the distance after men stop shaving their eyebrows and are tough enough to deal with any sort of crisis or global warming, mass extinction and alien invasions without working up a sweat.

Was the Presidential Election Stolen: True or False

 Probably not, unless Ukrainians stole it for Joe Biden (joking). It would require that all of those state elections officials were duped or complicit with dishonesty and clever enough to get away with it while Republicans were watching. I don’t doubt that the broadcast media would steal an election, yet I trust the local elections officials generally. Some are nice civic-minded people.

From what I have seen of the people on elections service they appear to take it seriously as volunteers. Most people might not sacrifice their time to get involved with elections that have dubiously useful people running for office. It is something of an insult to say they were thieves or dupes of Ukraine (unless they were).

Second Partisan Impeachments Vindictive?

Second partisan impeachments might be regarded as vindictive…a continuum of hate sort of flows and evolves along until the coup de grace. 

"noun

1. a final blow or shot given to kill a wounded person or animal.

   "he administered the coup de grâce with a knife"

I didn’t see much of the event of the populist surge of protestors into the Capitol on Youtube. Police were weak in numbers and had inadequate crowd control though they knew for quite a while and could have been better prepared. The Senate looked rather peaceful from the bit I did see. Plainly though it is a moment for counting coup on Donald Trump. Even Swarzennegger said that it was comparable to Nazis trashing Jews (maybe on Krystallnacht. Arnold Schwarzenegger likens Capitol riot to Nazi attack on Jews With the Democrats set to take control of the entire government the next two years one needs to be sure to be politically correct and get on the right side of the left-media and organizations or else. America’s Authoritarian Adversaries Seize the Moment

Democrats have ‘interpreted’ President Trump’s language four years, giving it a life and meaning of their own. To me as an amateur logician that custom seems plainly libel extrinsically. I need to say that in four years I never heard the President actually say a single racist remark, though I tend to interpret the rare use of English language on the basis of what people actually say literally, first, before considering the gestalt of things.

Impeaching the President one-more-time isn’t good sense. If the Senate actually got a two-thirds vote to convict and the possible front-running 2024 Republican candidate were banned I think that would create a lasting divide and a bad additional move to the extreme for Democrats that have been moving to take extreme measures since the Obama administration. Former Majority leader Harry Reed recently said that Democrats may need to get rid of the filibuster rule to prevent Republicans from obstructing their agenda. The problem with that would be that if some actual extremist party took control their would be nothing to stop them from working their agenda; that is no semblance of popular concurrence to political legislation would exist. Instead one party with a 1% majority would force its will upon maybe 150 million Americans. Technically one might be able to get away with that yet practically it might be tough to hold a democracy together that way.

Sure the Democrats of the House and Senator Schumer are vindictive and hateful politicians drunk on their own Russian-collusion kool-aid. They had a virtual intifada four years- a maximum filibuster orgy of hate for President Trump finding every possible angle to obstruct and abnormalize his state of being. Did he deserve that? The answer may not be as important as the consequences.

President Trump was his own worst enemy for the re-election that he lost. He did not say anything about a platform for the next four years; it was simply understood that he is great and made America great again and could not lose. Maybe he thought he would do whatever he wanted; the last year he gutted every environmental law he could. The President was an insensitive aloof guy on Covid 19 responses that would shut the economy down (he should have thought of something to keep it open and safe at the same time). Paradoxically he made some great executive actions in that period too advancing Middle East peace with Israel and Arab nations and recently restoring diplomatic recognition fully with Taiwan. Good policy like that is why conservative tend to like him.

As a Christian I valued his appointment of conservative Supreme Court judges. There is a real trend in the purely secular Democrat party to disrespect Christians and theology, to consider prayer a kind of ‘magical thinking’ that is not heard by anyone-certainly not a God they don’t believe in. Christian pastors that have wrong eschatological theology and remained loyal to any candidate that would not seek to degrade Christian life and ethics have in light of the mostly white protestors on capitol hill been associated with racism, and perhaps unfairly. If 95% of blacks voted for President Obama because he was black, those blacks that are Christians voted for a candidate twice that supported liberal homosexuality, abortion, tax cuts for the rich and concentration of wealth. Keeping the political argument just along racial lines pulls the wool over the eyes of those that aren’t 1%ers concerning wealth.

Op-ed: From white clergy of mostly white flock, Capitol siege demands a look in the mirror

The idea of an atheist nation of neo-globalist minions of concentrated wealth corporatism foisting homosexual marriage and abortion upon the masses while the 6th mass extinction in progress isn’t appealing to some independent intellectuals. There is not a sound proof against the existence of God, yet their is a lot of evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ as part of the Triune God. Philosophically speaking contemplation of cosmology is better normalized with God as the sustaining agent of the Higgs Field, space, dimensions and etc. rather than just one-half of the possible explanatory scenarios. God for example could create an holographic universe as readily as a vast quantum computer with A.I.

A Serious Ideological Threat to the United States

 The United States is becoming a nation with greatly concentrated wealth. There are numerous ideologies from many angles that reinforce that fact. Mussolini’s economic philosophy of corporatism isn’t well known by Americans who have too little time to invest in reading the history of political philosophy. It is the fact of tightening corporatism that is the clear and present danger to American’s tradition of individualism, free expression, free enterprise and national self-determination through free and fair elections, rather than an ideology; corporatism tends to discourage much non-occupational thinking. In that regard they are fairly similar to their Chinese Communist Maoist-Leninist partners in global trade and business.

The decline of the ecosphere is an empirical threat with the 6th great mass extinction event in progress by human causation. Corporatism runs rough-shod over that and encourages continuing exploitation of natural resources. The United States might have tolerated 300 million citizens if it had a stable, sustainable ecological economic policy yet it doesn’t and cannot keep on increasing its population and degrading the ecosphere very well and serve as an example to even more populous, poorer nations. Corporatism enjoys product disposability and replacement sales phenomena. The Earth’s resources are not disposable however, and that indicates something wrong with the policy of corporate cycle of production and consumerism.

The value of a government social-media censor-resistant citizen site

Writing on a number of topics on the Internet for the past 20 years I have found that nearly 100% of my work was eventually banned, taken down or minimized in search engine listings so it can’t be seen. I have written on philosophical, theological, historical and other subjects besides the political topics with a few words that resulted in my work being deleted. My writing is solid liberal scholarship essays on numerous topics and the break in continuity was invariably damaging. What people working in any occupation with free enterprise self-employment would like their work to disappear overnight?

God, Cosmology and Nothingness - Theory and Theology In a Scientific Era - Kindle edition by Gibson, Garrison Clifford. Religion & Spirituality Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

Vast deep-pockets set the rules for their own servers and websites and effectively has the complete power to censor or marginalize any opinion they find convenient too.

Generally they use a blunt instrument too-if one opposed homosexual marriage very well simply finding a few word pejoratively offensive to homosexuals could result in a lifetime ban across the Internet for all practical purposes. A nation and democratic government that relies up plutocrats to censor political speech will find that a plutocracy eventually dominates all of the wealth and power of a nation concentrating it in 1% of the people.

It is irritating for writers to have their work just disappear overnight while the large established powers increase their power. That is ad hoc monopolistic market manipulation at the very least.

Some Do View Freedom as Weakness

 If one were a dictator or a collectivist dictatorship leader then freedom could be viewed as a weakness in the paradigm of absolute rule and power. Free individuals may offer anti-state, dissentient opinion disturbing to ruling elites.

The degrees of freedom refer to the number of dimensions of possible activity that a soul may journey upon. Physics and fate may place numerous bindings upon individuals that require intelligent, creative thought to overcome. Such ideas among the oppressed are anathema to those oppressing others.

There is an ancient philosophical maxim that expressed the relationship between freedom and servitude; ‘If you are happy with your head in a pile of crap, don’t stick your neck out’.

On Public Versus Corporate Power Instead of Nation vs Nation

 Multi-national corporations and sophisticated investors have a heck of a lot more money and in some senses, practical power than worldly governments today that in effect have military that defend corporate and investor global interests.

Global corporations and concentrated wealth tends to out-last many government elected officials. Governments also have a tough time finding people that comprehend well the mass empirical effects of economic methods applied to the real natural world (such as ecospheric degradation). Another challenge to ordinary people is that social media is preponderantly owned by the most rich, as is the broadcast media so making substantial political change through politics is difficult to accomplish. Opinions that are published in some senses must pass through corporate-owned hoops, for example- the President of the United States with 88 million followers was recently banned from Twitter.

Philosophers have written about the problem of corporatism concentrating wealth and controlling governments in the past. In my opinion it will be very challenging for governments to battle with corporations meaningfully since politicians and Supreme Court personnel need to be corporate approved to reach high office- there just won’t be a will to battle with corporate and concentrated wealth and power. I am not optimistic.
