The Supreme Court of Retrocausality


I would bet that the founders didn’t intend for courts to have the power of retrocausality that could expropriate legislative power to make laws. They undoubtedly thought courts should have the power to decide if a law was constitutionally consistent or not. That differs from post hoc rewriting and redistributing a laws meaning. A Supreme Court should go no farther than nullifying a law and sending it back to the legislature for rewriting.

The founders in keeping with human history regarded marriage as a legal establishment that heterosexuals did. The laws that built up concerning marriage were made entirely with that premise. When the Corporatist-leftist Roberts court redistributed marriage and more than two hundred years of American historical legislative construction to homosexuals that was a good example of retrocausality-with the court arrogating legislative power. If the Court regarded marriage with a modern phenomenalist lens wherein genetic intercourse to produce a blastocyst and zygote was irrelevant to marriage that was a particular opinion (everyone has one). The opinion should have stopped there and not retroactively redistributed those included in the paradigm and laws concerning marriage.

Retrocausalty of the court is not necessarily good. It makes a farce of the will of the people expressed through representative government. AS legally elected legislature constructs laws and builds and establishment for a particular purpose and later the court redistributes those covered under the law in contradiction of the intentions of the legislature and people. Examples abound of retrocasual malfeasances that could arise over the course of history.

Consider Medicare. It was established by the legislature to benefit older Americans. So someone sews and the courts decide Medicare discriminates against everyone that isn’t retired and extends those covered under the law universally.

Another example would be the rights of citizenship concerning running for public office, attending college or passing through border control. The court could decide that citizenship discriminates against non-citizens and extend any benefits provided by citizenship to non-citizens; instead of nullifying the exclusivity of citizenship concerning laws and sending it back to the legislature to reconsider.


If the court is simply f’d up in its opinion and has support of corporatism as does Chief Justice Roberts, remedies may be difficult to find.

The City of God is a Great Read

The City of God is a great read. Some people enjoy reading history and its primary writers; for them the book is essential.

The City of God - Wikipedia

It is in a sense the first apologia for the fall of Rome to Alaric and the Goths in 410. Later, other authors such as Gibbon would place the blame for the fall of Rome on Christians. That was an error; for the fall of Rome was perhaps predestined by the end of the Republic and development of an imperial society with the upper classes becoming the globalists of their day while Rome itself was something of an afterthought where plebeians were pacified with bread and circuses while the rich were developing vineyards in France and hedonistic pursuits etc.

If one has read Augustine’s Confessions one learned something about the theologian-philosopher-author’s background. Augustine was well-educated and even understood the neo-Platonism of Plotinus. He was able to think about the nature of time and transcending issues concerning the city of God and the city of man comparatively. Augustine understood that transcendent Christian values surpassed the paradigm of the crumbling of imperial Roman rule.

Christianity became the unifying principle for what would become modern Europe a thousand years later. Christianity brought spiritual unification through the dark ages in the aftermath of the fall of the pagan European world with the faded glory of Rome perishing under foreign hooves. 

The City of God is a kind of proto-evangelion for a lot of future philosophy and theology including protestant theologians such as Paul Tillich. Tillich in the 20th century noted the dichotomy of empirical political social outlooks that were somewhat cyclical or reciprocal. Specifically heteronomy, autonomy and theonomous social structures. Paul Tillich | American theologian and philosopher

Augustine and Tillich found dual time experiences in the now in regard to the point of view of existence one has. The City of God in some senses is reflected in the amillenialist position generally favored by the Catholic Church. The Kingdom of God is of the City of God, and the Kingdom of God exists in heaven and on Earth through the transcending presence of the Spirit of God in the hearts of believers. The viewpoint is consistent with post-tribulationist Protestant theology and differs from chiliasm or the belief in a pre-tribulation period with immanent apocalypse and Second coming of Christ

Will the Von Sanders Plan to Nearly Double Public Debt Work?

Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has announced a new plan to add 16 trillion dollars to U.S.public debt. Will it work though?

Nearly doubling the U.S. public debt with $16 trillion dollars in new public spending might achieve making the interest on the debt not only a trillion dollars annually; it could possibly rise to near two trillion dollars annually and that would be something to brag about.

British public debt of financing the counter-revolutionary war wasn’t retired until just before the start of the First World War. Debt repayment to the moneyed class diverted much potential spending in the domestic public sector impoverishing the lower class more so than they would have been otherwise. The United States today hasn’t learned the British lesson of vast left and right wing sourced public indebtedness.

Some people would like to achieve elements of national ecological economic policy with new laws and regulations that would direct the free market to achieve the goals the public consider vital interests concerning environmental decline and global warming. Those reforms to shape free enterprise would not add anything to the U.S. public debt, yet what fun would that be?

It is possible that the ideas of political philosophy and political economy are so strange and politicians so uncreative that they are clueless about the opportunity for a democracy to direct the free market to work toward the public good intentionally. Thankfully no educated and intelligent souls are running for the Presidency in the Democrat party who could threaten to put off the increase of public debt. The rich enjoy the interest payments and making the nation owe them. Large tax increases could be relied upon ostensibly to pay off some of the interest. One need only vote for it to discover what's really in it.

Election Year 2020 and Pres Trump Hasn't Started a War Yet

President Trump faces some tough prospects because of his growing record as a peace monger. He is the first President since Ronald Reagan that hasn't got the U.S. involved in a new foreign conflict. That kind of reputation will make him an easy target for Democrats who traditionally know how to get international conflicts started.

The economy is good yet Democrats are agitating for doom and the chance of recession in order to fix it themselves with a Democrat President. The public debt is great and Greenland won't bail out the U.S. Government with undiscovered gold veins and diamond pipes under the ice amidst volcanic flows.

The President does seem to rate a flunk at environmentalism yet the public itself should do more to design business and construction activity that restores a healthy wild ecosphere rather than displace and erase it. That requires intelligent thought- and the public should not rely on the illusion that spoiled crats would do much in office besides host celebrity galas at the White House and create homosexual hegemony to help erase boundaries and any good sense in the nation.

Because the Democrat Party is all in with illegal migration to the United States the population actually could double in 30 years from 320 million to 640 million putting the lie to the idea of conserving the ecosphere.

At least staying out of a new protracted war may be one benefit (of course Iran, China, or Canada could attack at any moment requiring national defense) of re-electing the President in 2020. It is kind of an interesting thing to have the chance to watch Donald Trump to see if he can keep up his activity level and tweeting four years more. I would rather be sailing that interacting with the media in his position.



'Disloyal Jews' and President Trump

President Trump commented about Jewish voters being 'disloyal' because more than 80% voted for Democrats in the 2016 and 2018 elections. Republicans support Israel much more so than Democrats who harbor anti-Semites such as Representatives Omar and Tlaib. President Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and moved the U.S. embassy there; a bold move of support for the Jewish state. President Trump is correct in his sentiment, yet he fails to recognize that Jews are somewhat paranoid globalists that distrust white people as a result of European history. Jews haven't good sense when it comes to political matters outside Israel. They are good at making money.

Jewish support in the United States is largely from white Christians; a group that make up the core of the evangelical branch of the Republican Party. Without White evangelical support Israel hasn't enough support in the U.S.A. to perhaps continue to exist. The Democrat Party really would cut off aid to Israel eventually if it becomes too powerful, non-white, anti-Christian and Muslim.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/trumps-loyalty-comment-german-attack-jews

Many American voters continue in a 1960s era paradigm. Jews were liberals joining the Hippie-era Democrat party in opposition to the Jim Crowe South and southern conservatism generally. Needless to say that is a very different and somewhat historically remote paradigm from the political facts of life, Demographics and income allocation regarding races and time-in-country now.

Jews trust globalism, Wall Street and the power of Hollywood propaganda embedded in contemporary corporatism, democratic socialism and globalism wherein they can thrive through investments. Some of the historical mistakes that led to two world wars devastated European Jews are repeated in the United States insofar as the political facts differ from the beliefs of political social reality. The differences lead to results out of phase with what was expected.

If ever there was a nation besides Israel that Jews could be loyal to, it is the United States. It is a nation founded on the principle that all men are equal, and upon ideas rather than a racial tribe or royalty such as one finds in most of the world including stilted Europe with pride in degradation and allowing Muslim moral leadership to develop within their dark abyss.

Media slander of conservative white Americans associating them with NAZIs is disgusting for those of us with a parent who served in the Second World War. Without white Americans the NAZIs would have won. Without white Americans the constitution would not have been written. White Americans have conserved a semblance of world peace such as was possible the better part of a century. A peace with as much freedom as possible. It is difficult to imagine any other racial group or nation that would have even been interested in anything besides domination, repression and corruption as was usual most of human history.

With Jewish liberalism reinforcing migration of Muslims to the United States and atheism, flooding the nation with illegal aliens to reduce the imagined threat of white Americans being a latent NAZI  element who would force them into crematoria, that historically wrong judgment brings real emergent threats that exist in Democrat and global corporatist-socialist trends into effect.

Nuking Mars Deserves Recognition as the One of the Century's Stupidest Ideas

Nuking Mars even before mankind has set foot there is a breathtakingly stupid idea. It is one of the dumbest ideas ever set forward and is worthy of an Ignoble Prize. That the otherwise intelligent and creative billionaire engineer corporate innovator (Space X) made the gaff is the wondrous paradox. It is a kind of bi-polar intellectual product that is the antipode of Elon Musk’s good ideas.

That any human being would suggest nuking one of Earth’s nearest neighbors even before Democrats declare it too friendly to Russians says something about the human condition. What about nuking GJ 357 d  that is orbiting a small star just 31 light years away and is a super-earth in size? Nuking that planet could become a great human project, and it would require a fast propulsion system leading to derivative tech benefits. That world could be nuked within a century if humans put their backs to it.

N.A.S.A. discovered other planets that might merit a good nuking

The star Proxima Centauri has a few good worlds that just may need nukular carpet-bombing to become paradises fit for billionaires- these little gems are merely a few light years distant and can be given special delivery packages dirt cheap.

Terraforming a planet would require some substantial amount of intelligent thought. Star Trek had a terraform bomb in one of its films yet that is probably quite a way out.

Mars need be carefully studied in its natural condition and kept in a natural condition as much as possible except where humans live under domes and other artificial constructs- even artificial mountains and underground. Scientists need study it any way, in detail for centuries to learn what can be learned about it. Nuking Mars would F it all up and probably pollute the water and ice such as does exist. 

Warming Mars up artificially is another bad idea. It would etherialize water that would be lost into space. Space-heaters for Mars with mirrors is a devastatingly bad idea. Water and ice on Mars and the Moon should be conserved and regarded as important as water to a desert dweller.
