There are certain constants that one would think every American knows. Simple things really, like the idea that something comes from nothing one would think would not be accepted by anyone in this nation. Yet as obvious as this seems, there are many who do not believe facts, but prefer the fallacy of some hallucinations that are impossible to ever comprehend the statement.

Perhaps the reason is as a society we have allowed words of question, to take the place of words of fact. It wasn’t that long ago when someone was attempting to make an ‘abstract’ conclusion of something there were some indications of—but no proof—we called it a hypothesis. The reason, it gave a starting point. This would be followed by developing a test, to prove one way or another is the hypothesis was correct. If a test was conducted, and that test under all circumstances had the same result, then we accepted the hypothesis as truth, and verifiable.

Today we have the new world of scientific insight that is more ‘relative’ in evaluation. Today when we hear scientist make their hypothesis, we don’t call it a hypothesis, we have a new world, which by itself is confirmation to the world of relativist where facts just get in the way. We now have that magic word that identifies every concept known today of science—MAY.  

What is interesting about MAY, it never has to be confirmed.  It only has to be presented, and if presented more than once under the guise of MAY then becomes absolute and accepted.

Once of the greatest frauds ever committed is the concept of Keynesian ‘economics—or communist monetary policy’ your identification being accepted as doctrine; when any idiot who had ever spent or earned a dime has the knowledge to refute this fallacy.

This is the problem with our government. They spend money that is ‘STOLEN’ from the people, the citizens of this nation with absolutely no regard that dollars spent, represent the ‘LIFE’ of the individual who must pay those dollars.

That sounds perhaps confusing to some; here is the key you must remember. This was identified in our Declaration of Independence—‘endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights among then life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’ Now in life we trade our amount of life working to make products, work for someone, and do a service, in exchange for wealth. This wealth to make it more transferable, we use dollars as a medium. We get away from barter, my cow for your pigs, as it is inconvenient, and impractical for large economies. So we trade our life for dollars, our dollars for goods we purchase, and we pursue our happiness doing what we wish. Simple plan is it not?

So dollars have value to people—for they have invested life to obtain those dollars.

Now let’s examine Keynesian’s hallucination, and if you remember this you can explain to those who have doctors of Economics, that believe in this fallacy of ‘DEMAND’ side economics; some say GOVERNMENT’ economics why it is in error.

Keynes had this hallucination: if the government puts dollars into the economy—for no exchange of life by the recipients for those dollars—then by them purchasing will stimulate the economy. Now where do these dollars come from? Interesting this question isn’t asked. Is it from some stockpile of dollars the government has hidden in some ‘National Treasure’ the rest of society does not know about? Or is it that just say, let’s print some more money, or better yet, lets borrow from the federal reserve that can then charge us interest on the money we borrow—and they will have the treasury print it for their purposes. Starting to cloud the picture and remove reality a bit? If not, then you’re not engaging your mental processing.

Let’s begin at the point of someone coming into your store, or your business, and trading one of these dollars to you for your effort. They got the dollar from the government, which has not value or life to make that dollar of value. Now you accept that dollar and give part of your life, you wealth for that dollar. Now what did you just do? You are the one that made that dollar have value—when you gave the good of service—and took the dollar in exchange. So now, did the government do something good or bad? Let’s see—you took a plugged nickel, and gave something of your life…your wealth…for that dollar. So why didn’t you just print that dollar from your effort, why did someone else benefit from the dollar you made of value?       

Someone in this event is being played as a sucker, starting to get the idea who it is?

But we have not completed the travesty of Keynesian insanity.

Keynes’s hallucination was that in downturn of the economy, when the government stimulates—by printing money you made of some value when used—must when times get better take the money back out of circulation. Now here is where anyone who bought into this should have their head examined. Would not the first question be; how is it that government get money? Do they just show up at banks late at night with an 18 wheeler and take what they want—after all they created it, perhaps it is theirs!

Or do they just wait for those who have so many extra of these dollars they paid for with their lives, they just send them back to the government, for they were worthless when they started—but forgetting the fact that you paid part of your life for them? I don’t know any who do, so if you do, you’ve some very wealthy friends.

No the government gets their money back by—taxing the people directly and indirectly.

So let’s see, you the citizen made these dollars valuable by exchanging your life for worthless paper. So now the dollar has value, provided by you. The government needs to pay back the debt, they took out in your name—as the good old sucker the American taxpayer—that has to be paid back with what? Oh that’s right with the dollars you put value in—to the bank that made the dollars, putting in no value.

Now if you can’t see the fallacy of this—then perhaps this nation is doomed.

It doesn’t work, it has never worked, and now that you can make the measurements of why—the exchange of your life to make value—you should be able to explain this to anyone. Anyone that is who can do numbers…that excludes both our congress and the administration, and the bureaucracy, but anyone who has ever exchanged life for wealth should understand you as plain as if you were putting the light of the sun upon economic reality.

There is one caveat that you must also realize. In the world of hallucination, they say, well the Gross Domestic Product went up, so the economy is doing better, see it worked!

Before you demand a drug test, think of this reality—it is a little thing called inflation. Now what inflation does is hide realty from all who are ignorant, in not only economics, but in about everything else…you’ll even find they vote democrat.

When the government puts these dollars into circulation, without the value of life attached to them—those who have the money could care less how much they spend for anything. Why should they worry, money comes from government, all I have to do to get money…my only work in this process…is vote for those who will give me more (now I’d like to say that is only the Democrats, but far too often it is those who are supposed to save the republic, the Republicans that come up with these hair brained schemes) as they will ‘GIVE’ me more money, that I have no requirement to either exchange my life for—or pay back tomorrow.

These results in prices go up—for if idiots and anyone who pays more for a product than it should be creates economic turmoil—as those who have no skin in the game, or even have exchanged their life for that wealth; what does it matter?

As costs rise, inflation occurs, the measurement of dollars is greater, even with less economic vitality. So the ‘DOLLAR’ measurement can be more—as the Keynesians observe—but the actual value is less.

Our nation is in trouble. That is a fact that is so obvious it is beyond comprehension those in charge do not see it, and those who vote are clueless.

The greatest destruction of this nation is occurring with the fiscal—the spending by the government, in programs of insanity—and the monetary policy—the making of dollars of no value that are made of value by the citizens in society—both aimed at debauching our currency, and destroying that very wealth, the measurement of any American’s pursuit of happiness.

I am Robert Bales!

As we live in a world unknown to any of mankind in the history of man; we find that there are high water marks, commas that occur seemingly beyond comprehension.

One of those interesting travesties is the actions of identification so many had with the American traitor, Bradley Manning. Now the interesting dichotomy was the reasoning of the why! He only allowed the American people to see the truth. As anyone in their right mind would say; what divine power said that Bradley Manning was the savior to man’s soul, and he could place American soldiers in harm’s way because of this traitorous act?

You hear such insanity, especially from those who are anti-thesis of the culture, the idealism, and the foundation of this nation…while advocating that the theft from others is perfectly acceptable. Perhaps if they possess some medical condition of bipolar reasoning this would make sense, but if one has any capacity of reason—is there a more illogical conclusion?

Add to those evaluations, it’s not Christian, or Democratic to be killing people. Is that not an interesting proposition? Let’s see, in our—nation’s—insanity that ‘reason’ and ‘civilization’ can be brought to a society that once civilized, but now destroyed by the dementia of islam, can be made once again civilized by placing American troops in harm’s way. Is there any reason in this scenario; if you have people that have been killing each other for 1,400 years all in the name of some idol they adhere to, and we place our troops exposed to be shot at on a continuum, apparently to allow those with the dementia of islam to—reconcile—because now they have a common target to shoot at is the answer…is absurdity beyond absurdity.

Perhaps in the world of insanity this nation has placed itself—in a war bankrupting this nation…to listen to the communist in our own government, never mind that we’ve spend more money on the war on poverty since the 60’s that all the wars combined including the revolutionary war; achieving results that we are farther behind now than when begun—that is ruining our nation.

When in reality, I’ll never forgive George Bush for allowing this nation to be attacked and not responding. It is the most disgraceful act ever known in this nation’s history, and because of it, it may result in this nation’s ‘disappearing from the earth!’

Yet today we have another milestone. Today one soldier exposed to this insanity of what do you call it I don’t know—organized suicide…militarily insanity…or just some crazy irrational, illogical response to a tragedy under the guise of political correctness, and considering diversity? I don’t know—there are so many words of insane actions that can be used—yet there is one that cannot be used…reason.

So a man raised in the closest thing left on the face of this planet to a civilized society, American, on his fourth tour in the valley of death called Afghanistan—goes berserk.

As such his anger, his resentment, and his acknowledgment that the American military is being destroyed piecemeal by the very micromanagement that had wiped the greatest military force known on the face of this planet from existence. All because of lacking political resolve to preserve the philosophical idealism of this nation. Not abiding to some criteria of a world body of which we should never be included with.

The act, horrible, but then war…even this disgraceful attempt of one…is horrible—it is one of the reasons they call it war and not a Sunday picnic. 

Now he is being tried in the military. If there is any man in this nation who thinks the emotional degradation of the islamics in Abu Ghraib were bad; I’ll guarantee you the propaganda, and the emotional brainwashing this poor kid went through under the hands of the bureaucracy of those who call themselves Americans, in our military would make the experience of those who would kill Americans in Abu Ghraib seem like that proverbial picnic.

He, Robert Bales says he don’t know why he did it. Has no idea why he would do such a horrible thing.

You see this statement by itself is a prime example of the error of this concept that the error of a diverse culture is possible. Here is my hypothesis—I won’t use the new magic word of credibility we hear so often…may—what is the reason. When you are placed in an environment not as a soldier, but as a target, with insane ‘rules of engagement,’ where the enemy—which is the total society of the nation in which you are in—has the ability to shoot at you one minute, and then run and hide, blending into society; it takes its toll.

This isn’t something new; this is the same tactic of Vietnam, and every other place that societies of ideology—such as isalmism, communism, anti-civilizationism exist.                 

No, any rational man can or would crack under the stain of the insanity of this military intrusion without reason. If civilized and from a society of morals, mores, and theological religious foundations.

Therefore, I am ‘Robert Bales’ and I feel the pain of his experience in this travesty.

We must start stating the obvious—we are controlled by the communistation of our government!

Individually, my respect for Ted Cruz is held in high esteem for one reason and one reason only; he believes in the great experiment of a nation with enumerated congressional laws, which are designed to protect the inalienable rights, of our creator, of each and every citizen.

This is such an ‘exceptional’ reality, that it is unknown anywhere even today on the surface of this planet. Even though there are those who advocate ignorance, as our mea maxima culpa, the current president, the greatest mistake ever of this nation; who could possibly say, that other nations are a comparative, that they are exception also. If so, then where is the example, where is the proof? In the laws of England, is much, but nothing close to the philosophical idealism or the principles that government has one and only one objective; to protect those endowed rights from our creator—with the power of that government.

Yet I have a problem. I have a problem with Ted Cruz, and any other of the socialist Republican Party who cannot say the words of reality—cannot identify—using the correct identifier the ideology of the opposition party. By doing so, they lie to the American people, and by this lie, do not teach, or explain the danger this nation is in.

For this word is more dangerous than the greatest danger man will ever know—government. For this word, is the root of all evil wrapped up in one ideology of the most dangerous form of human illusion known to mankind? It is a word that any ration man, and especially any man cultivated in the civilization of the American experience should get shivers down his spine when he hears this word, and its application to our society.

Yet it is this same word that is the enemy of our nation’s existence, it is the world that identifies the present actions of our government occurring at an ever accelerating pace. It is the world that if made, all the insanity of our government’s current—what is called scandalous—is not. These activities are the identical activities initiated by one who created the exact template that our current administration is following. So if we know that, what should be the expectations?

You see that person had a complex name, he was called Vladimir Lenin; and it is the template of Lenin’s destruction of Russia that is the exact copy of the actions this current president is following.

This isn’t some hypothesis, this is a fact that anyone, anyone who is literate, and can read can confirm by reading about Lenin, or even doing a search on the internet. Those who believe in the ideology of ‘COMMUNISM’ that word the Republicans are so incapable of saying—that explains more in one word than all of the tripe of rhetorical commentary that explains nothing to the American people. While if they would just say the obvious, the truth, even the least enlightened of this nation’s citizens—except those educated in the public school propaganda…academic…environment—should understand.

Yes Mr. Cruz, it is a fact that this president does ignore the ‘Bill of Rights.’ He also ignores the ‘Constitution’ of this nation—calling it too restrictive to what government can do for you…as if we haven’t figured out what government has been doing to us for far too long. Who ignores the rules of law, the oath of office, and the judicial restraints of the court that have been imposed on this administration? While this doesn’t even mention that the executive branch has one duty, to enforce the laws of the legislation in this nation—and this group of ‘COMMUNIST’ not only reject that—they openly state they will not enforce the laws of this nation—and yet impeachment hearings are not demanded?

No it is more than just the ‘Bill of Rights’ the American public must worry about. It is the advancement of communism, within our own government, using the power and the force of the state creating the very nihilism, the destruction, of this nation.

On this Memorial Day, I have my own little ritualism I repeat. The breakfast meal is the traditional Navy fare for Sunday and Holiday—the culinary delight—of what is affectingly called by sailors since time immemorial…SOS or shit on the shingle.

Now it really isn’t such; in truth it is chipped beef in white cornstarch gravy—served over toast. The acronym as all navy acronyms origin is unknown to me—only that I’ve enjoyed it, and accepted this breakfast oddity since childhood, as my father before me was a swabby. Another of those names of a sailor, perhaps from the days of swabbing the deck which occupied the sailors time at sea.

The meal is not complete without navy beans, sweetened—that why I also don’t know. Just conceded it is a ritual of long standing, at sea or ashore, still adhered to up to my service time—though today with this military of political correctness I’m sure now they serve quiche, with croissants—unheard of in the old navy.

My son was making a comment to some of our family history and the events that close members of my family have been in. Interestingly, they thought he was kidding them, as it is a strange chain of events in history that our family has by some fate of change been there when evens occurred; even when those events weren’t pleasant.

When he brought it to my attention, I realized he has missed a few of those who had been in conflicts—and sadly the one who did give his greatest measurement to this nation—wasn’t included.

As it is interesting, I thought I take the time to share and offer some historical commentary of the events surrounding the military action of my extended family.

I’d like to start at the ‘War of Northern Aggression,’ of the ‘War Between the States,’ or for those who don’t know history even the misnomer of the ‘Civil War’ for certainly that is the most incorrect labeling of any political incident known in the history of man. Though few understand the political genesis that created this travesty; the political rhetoric of our nation’s first tyrant, ‘I will collect the taxes!’

The result, in this nation they estimate now that close to a million people perished. For what the jury is still out, for it created problems that to this day are still problems never dealt with and corrected.

As a footnote it is strange that the revisionism of this tragedy says it was for the ‘freedom’ of three million who were of a different race. Funny that wasn’t mentioned during the war, but it makes great political clout after the aggression of the north has succeeded. To put it in perspective of comparative; at the same time, in fact 3 years earlier another tyrant has freed over 22 million people, lost the lives of no one, and created a way for the economic system of the nation to allow those freed to change their way of life. It’s a strange comparative of the absolute incompetency of Lincoln, when compared to Czar Alexander of Russia—but facts are facts, and reality is reality.

Now as both sides of the family were Virginians and the westward migration occurred after the war of Northern Aggression, the history of whom participation and who gave their final measure to preserve the constitutional America for the South is lost and unknown. For the fires on the plains that destroyed homes, and all the earthly possessions of family happened frequently in my family. Thankfully they just rebuilt, and carried on—or perhaps we’d been just another group waiting for the government to show up.

Our first family adventure that I can recall from just a glimpse of knowledge is the adventure of my Grandfather in Flanders during WWI. Now as it seems my family is destined to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, he began the tradition. Few men of the American Expeditionary Force were unfortunate enough to be in, or survive a gas attack. It is a strange addition to his resume, but he was one of those with this reality. And if it wouldn’t have been for his choice of medicine—good Irish whiskey—he may have succumbed and been a statistic but survived to be a veteran.

The tragedy of WWI is a historical nightmare. Sadly though the war itself, and the insane ending are unbelievable, the insanity of our president after the fact playing god little (g) on earth and drawing lines on a map creating the genesis for the war to follow is truly a tragedy of immeasurable proportions. So many died; a few examples. In Kansas City, MO there is a WWI museum, where large brass plaques are engraved with over 6,000 names. This museum was built by Harry Long, and then became the Nation museum for this war—without any federal funding, how is that for a remarkable change.

When there I asked if these names were for those from Missouri, and was shocked by the answer; no these are just the boys from Kansas City who died. It reminded me of a woman in my youth who was so kind to me; teaching me to read at a young age. Though she was over 65 when I met here, at 3—she was a Golden Star Mother. This meant nothing to me until later as I aged then learning the horrible reality of her life. She had not a golden star for losing a boy in the war, she had 5 gold stars. IN the cemetery of our small town was a wall in the crypt that was cordoned off, in such were her boys, the slate entry, with the golden star, each one individual stacked a family together in their final resting place. She never talked of it; or even made it part of her daily presence. Only on occasions, taking flowers to the crypt; and in her remembrance remembered her boys.

That’s the true memorial, the true measurement of those who gave so much for this nation.              

My father had to continue the strange combination of events that led this capacity to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. IN the time leading up to WWII—those who were of the more conservative persuasion were totally convinced that this nation would go into this war of insanity created by the fiasco of the ‘Peace’ of insanity of WWI. To not be but cannon fodder, many joined up to at least get a pick of assignments, and perhaps some training. As such my father was one of those boys from the Midwest that did just that. Now as a red blooded American who understood mechanics—and had no illusions that something comes from nothing—he was a hard worker, and dedicated in whatever he did. The result, he worked on, and was trained to make sure the gyros that make torpedoes run straight and true worked. This was followed by being assigned to the vacation land of the Pacific, the Hawaiian Island. His time there is a blur—for he was one of that at the sub pens when—after the Pacific Fleet was moved to Hawaii; for there was no way the logistics would have allowed the Japanese to attack it at San Diego in California—visited by the wonder of the Japanese attack we identify as Pearl Harbor. So once again the family luck held. Thought the possibilities to be but a memorial were there—he survived and became a veteran, not a casualty.

Shortly afterward my uncle who was stationed in the Philippines also participated in one of those historical milestones of our nation’s history. For he was on the peninsula of Bataan—part of the American contingent that surrendered—then forced to march the length of the peninsula under horrible conditions to the northern end of the peninsula to Camp O’Donnell. Surviving who known how—somehow becoming a veteran instead of another statistic.

My uncle Mark was a strange silent man. Kind to a fault, though a big strong bruising individual he spoke softly, had consideration for everyone, and always saw people in a way I’ve known few others to have.

An event in my life is the apex of understanding perhaps in some small way what he experienced. For once while staying with my cousins at Uncle Marks, I was awoken in the night by a penetrating scream I’d never heard or experienced. Interestingly shocked that my cousins didn’t seem to react to the event; and I could only ask what it was. The reply was so simple and straight forward, that I remember it as if last night. Oh, that’s only dad, he has nightmares of the Bataan Death march and wakes up with a scream whenever it happens, which is pretty regular.           

It wasn’t until I became older to put that into perspective; that an event in one’s life could be so devastating that the subconscious could not clear it—put it behind and move forward. This never ended, until his dying days, whatever daemons that event planted in his mind became permanent, never receding. He was a veteran not a statistic, but in some ways still condemned to repeat continually, never ending; the horrors of war and that event.

Fate has a strange way of intervening the opposite way also. Another uncle was a radio operator attachted to a naval wing of dive-bombers. His squadron was assigned to the Hornet, the aircraft carrier. This carrier, which by only the mistake of misprinted orders he was not at his station, was struck and damaged at the battle of Okinawa when the Japanese unleashed their version of the divine wind the ‘Kamikaze.’  

He’d had a medical condition and was sent to a base hospital. His orders were but to catch his squadron, which had been assigned to the Hornet, but they sent him to where the squadron was refitted in Phoenix, little realizing it has shipped out. So while he was in Phoenix waiting order to catch the Hornet, the ship was being attacked off Okinawa.

Now here is where fate is often a strange bedfellow. The Kamikaze that struck and damaged the Hornet, hit right into the radio shack, the very place my uncles general quarters, we are under attack, battle station was. 

We do have our fallen hero, and the story is limited. The same as so many stories, when so many perish, those who are informed are as gullible as the government wishes us to be, for there is no way to confirm.

One uncle who married into the family was a bombardier on B-17s with the 8th air force bombing Germany and Europe out of England. What is known, or told is that the planes landing gear failed, and as bombardiers have a birds eye seat in front, if the nose wheel collapses—your changes are non-existent; about the same as a turret gunner on the same aircraft.

 

I’m the last of the family in war. My son was in the Air Force keeping the nuclear umbrella hovering over our nation—while the nation was being destroyed by the political actions of the very government they were protecting. This was some sort of strange dichotomy, which if this nation survives will give any historians who write truth some very interesting research.

In my event, though historical, didn’t put me, in harm’s way—I don’t believe. For I was a simple reactor operator, making power providing the electrical grid of radar operations on the USS Long Beach. Now we gave it a name, I’m not sure if complimentary or just some frustration of the fact when a ship doesn’t require refueling, it is stationed at sea for long, long, long periods of time. So though stationed out of Long Beach California, we instead found our only reprieve at the famous port of Subic Bay and wondrous Pilipino community of Olongapo. Thus our reference was the combination of the English and the Pilipino’ pronunciation of Long Beach as Longa Bitch—an easily accepted identifier accepted by all.

In the war there was only one event that stood out. As our station was the (PIRAZ) the (Positive Identification Radar Advanced Zone) we conducted two main missions. First making damn sure the Migs of North Vietnam didn’t come out toward where the carriers hung out, Yankee Station; and to provide direction support for the bombers and fighters coming off those same carriers striking ‘those’ targets allowed in North Vietnam. That in itself was a comedy, as Catholic Churches were no hit zones, so the tanks and planes parked around them was comical in the intel (intelligence) photographs delivered daily. Also it was interesting how many trucks could be on a DuPont rubber plantation, as they too, were on the no hit list. As the war was the result of the American betrayal of Ho Chi Min to begin with, as we allowed the French to reclaim their Indo China possessions, I guess political insanity is not an exception, but the norm.

Historically the Long Beach was the first ship to use missiles to bring down enemy aircraft. A twin salvo of Talos ram jet missiles took out in one big bang (5) Migs in one swipe. We didn’t do as well as the tailor who got seven flies with one swipe, but it was good enough to keep the Migs on the ground whenever the Longa Bitch was on station.

In Texas it is fascinating all of those who have served in the military. I’m not sure if there are so many who served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam in any state as there is in Texas. At the Oak Hill VFW they have one member who few in both the European and Pacific theatre during WWII—and he has a chests full of medals, what service members call spaghetti, to confirm it.

I’m proud of this nation; with all of its faults and so many political mistakes it’s difficult to comprehend this nation is anything like our design.

Yet the reality of reality exists; that this nation with our current communist government is the only one with a template that liberty and freedom can exist. It would be a sad epitaph of this great nation, and the sacrifice of so many to watch this nation disappear from the ‘face of the earth’ just because we as American citizens forget that little reality.

You know when every day we see the stock market go up, the dew on the roses, and the wonder of living in this great nation when everything—as identified by the lies and mistruths of the government and press—is getting so marvelous, it makes the roaring 20’s seem like a depression.

What a wonderful rollercoaster. Daily the Standard and Poor’s, the NASDAQ, and even the Dow Jones report are sharing the wonder of this exponentially rising ‘value’ of the stock market. If we get any…more…wealthier; perhaps we can even pay off the insurmountable debt of this nation and not leave it for our posterity.

Just think this will be so remarkable that we’ll have to put the bust of our o‘bomb’a on Mt. Rushmore with the other losers, Lincoln, Roosevelt, and sadly Jefferson—why poor George was stuck with that group of misfits is beyond my understanding!

Isn’t it interesting how history repeats itself? Thinking of this wonder, I was going back through history attempting to find a time, or situation, that we could compare this absolutely remarkable economic miracle to. And it was there. You see in the 1600’s in Holland they had an economic event that is called ‘Tulip’ mania. It is identical, the same scenario, as what this nation is occurring—except for a different reason.

In Holland, in the 1600’s and at its peak around 1635, the speculation on Tulip bulbs became not only the national pastime; it became the national effort of activity. If we could find their GDP, their gross domestic product at the time, I’m sure it would have unbelievable, after all the price of tulips was at an all-time high, while going higher every day. 

For those who think that our present economic condition is getting better, and that this rising prices of the stock market are an indication of that wonder; then you probably don’t also have the slightest idea or even a clue what the Tulip mania was, or the why—so I’ll make a brief, as brief as possible synopsis.

In Holland the long lasting bulbs of tulips became a commodity that one could invest in. So the craze for tulips and the demand made investing in tulip bulbs seem like a good investment. Now what happened next? Agronomist began making more and different types of tulips; changing the colors, the brilliance, just anything to differentiate their new tulip from the past tulips. As each new tulip appeared, people speculated on the market, those who liked tulips would buy tomorrow. Just like any commodity today.

There is also an associated gambling—or speculation—involved with commodities. As such, you can buy contracts of commodities for tomorrow, and you can sell contracts of commodities for tomorrow. Now when you buy, the commodity doesn’t have to be delivered unit that date. When you sell, the commodity doesn’t have to be delivered unit that date. This sounds perfectly reasonable doesn’t it? Just like a contract should be, one sells one buys, and there is a guarantee of receiving a guaranteed price when the product is produced. This is a great idea and a logical system.

As in all systems, there is always a fly in the ointment. In our society—especially our economic and business activity—there are two flies in ever ointment…the financial institutes…and the government.

Now in Holland it was identical to this nation’s stock market today. For each and every day the ‘price’ of the tulips contracts was greater than it was today. Daily if you invested you would be richer tomorrow. It didn’t matter what you paid, even if you had to bid up the price—because that magical mathematical formula of (0=1) had been achieved; something could come from nothing. There was no need to work, all you had to do was buy tulips today, for tomorrow you’d be wealthier than you ever imagined.

What could be more wonderful? Wait a minute, what if I borrow money today, and invest it, then as the price goes up, I’ll be richer—and the wealth I make will pay off the loan plus make me wealthier. Wow, this is like the formula perhaps of (0=2) because I can use other people’s money—or the state ran banks fiat money—to make me even richer and richer.

Now those people who were working this Ponzi scheme of financial manipulation thought about it, and came up with an ever greater way for you to make more money. You don’t have to pay for ‘all of the’ contract—why we all know tomorrow these tulips are going to be worth more—so we’ll just have you put down a percentage of what the contract cost is, a margin, using the contract as collateral—oh by the way, you are responsible for the difference in value if it goes down…in real small print. Wow, this is like having the equation of (0=12) what could be more wonderful. This is like the magical carpet ride, the Alice in Wonderland of financial success for everyone and no one has to do any work. What could be more wonderful?

Yet as all things wonderful, this illusion came to a crashing halt. One day, some old Dutchman, probably one who didn’t do marijuana, the national pastime of Holland, made a remarkable observation. He told them, you know what—I don’t care what color it is, or what hue it has, at the end of the day it’s still but a tulip. This shows why in this nation our government with the coercive power of the press do their damndest to make sure that ‘reality’ is never brought into information to the general public, especially those who vote clueless what they are voting for. This little event in Holland is empirical proof that if only one bit of truth is injected into a world of insanity; it can bring down that world of insanity.

Now in our world today we still have ‘tulip’ buyers and sellers, only the product they speculate on isn’t tulips. The products they speculate on to do the same thing that occurred with the tulips; we call the stock market, and the international monetary fund.  

Yet our tulip merchants use the power of commodities on not that tomorrow the value of tulips will be higher; they work on the assumption and do everything in their power, to make sure that the tulips they must provide tomorrow can be bought tomorrow for less than they sold it for…for delivery in the future…today. So today you sell what you don’t have—a futures contract to deliver tomorrow. How can you do that? It’s simple really, you have a contract that say you must supply it at that date, and you have none. But on that date, that product will exist, so you buy the product, paying the cost at that time, satisfying you contract. If the price is less, you made money, once again proving that the equation of (0=1) can exists. If the price at that later date is more; then you lose. For it is you pay ([the current price which is > greater than])=([the price you sold the contract for originally).

In today’s world the greatest ‘tulip’ trader is a man we call George Soros. Now George Soros only sells contracts when he can manipulate the value of the contract in the future is worth less than the one he sells today. And he doesn’t deal in tulips; he deals in the international monetary fund, which is very dangerous.

So he sells dollars today, to be supplied at some future date, on a contract. Just like the speculation in the stock market, or the tulip mania.

Now how can he do that and be guaranteed that this will happen? Well he can’t guarantee it, but pretty damn close. What he needs is an incompetent and fiscally and monetary illiterate government in the US. Mission accomplished, he spent ‘millions of dollars’ electing the most incompetent politician ever known in the literacy and empirical history of mankind. The result, he’s pocketed ‘billions of ($)’ of using his understanding of this elected ones not only incompetency, but his ideology, to his advantage.

Now why is the stock market going up? Have you figure it out?

It’s simple and I hope this is branded into your consciousness for time immemorial. It is the measurement we use that is manipulated, not the value of the commodity.

Now that is a strange identification if you are unfamiliar with monetary policy; so perhaps this little example will make it obvious.

If you today have a beer, and you can sell it for a price—say a ($)—with a profit of 10%, or a dime. Tomorrow the price of you buying the beer to sell goes up, the price of the taxes you pay go up, all of the cost to get that beer to you go up. Now you still need to make the 10% profit, but with the expenses to buy the beer, you have to charge ($2).

Now are you making more money? Of course you are, right! Just think before you were only making a dime, now you’re making 20¢—so you’ve doubled you sales and profit, right?

And if you have an investor; wow you’ve doubled you profits, so you must be of greater value today than you were yesterday. Isn’t this not obvious; after all isn’t the goal of business to make profit, while your profit doubled you must be doing better.

As the old non dope smoking Dutchman would say, I don’t care what you charge for the beer; it’s still only a beer!

Just as George Soros counted—and manipulated—that the value of the dollar would be less…so is the illusion the stock market is improving is also an illusion.

It is not, just because we are using the number of dollars to define something, and the value of those same dollars are depreciation exponentially, doesn’t correlate we are doing better—in fact the inflated price of our ‘tulips’ the stocks of our market—are an illusion as great as the most illogical hallucinations of a marijuana dope smoking looser.

Monetary manipulation by government is the most dangerous tool used by those who wish to destroy this nation. Confirmed by the manager of the greatest destruction of any nation, Russia by the architect Vladimir Lenin who told us; ‘the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency.’ No more explained than the architect of this nation’s monetary demise, John Maynard Keynes who made this observation; ‘Lenin was certainly right; for debauching the currency engages all of the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million can diagnose!’

This is our future if we do not become not one in a million, but that less than one in a million do not understand the destructive power of government manipulation of the monetary policy. This fact was identified not today, not yesterday, but long, long ago when the application of currency—lending, and the absolute demented destruction of the Sveriges Riksbank of Sweden, and the Bank of England with the design of William Paterson to finance the government.

This absolutely abominable, abhorrent, execrable idea of nationalized central banking and monetary manipulation—as the federal reserve is today—to satisfy the insatiable appetite of totalitarian sovereignty of government; is the very genesis of this nation’s creation. It is a sad epitaph that this nation’s destruction is the result of those who are citizens of this nation not realizing that very ‘reality!’

I don’t know about you folks, but I’m so sick and tired of those who are so damn ignorant, they don’t realize our nation is under attack, by our own government.

Our last Republican President, who made some mistakes I’ll never forgive him for—one being sending our troops out as target while never identifying and dealing with the enemy, the dementia of islam that has been the black plague on civilization since its genesis—had a library opened for the ‘what’ I’m not sure. For rubber stamping the advancement of the communism of the Democratic Party instead of Vetoing every damn bill they presented for the last two years of his administration.  

Now anyone who is cognitive can point out the errors the Bush administration. Yet in comparative with the absolute ‘train wreck’ currently occurring, he seems as brilliant as ‘Solomon!’

So what do the Republicans do to insult this nation once more beyond rational reasoning? They open a library, and then invite those who are systematically, continually, and never ending advancing the nihilism—the destruction—of this nation’s wonder.

Do their brains ever engage? Or are they so removed, so lacking any principles, as corrupt as the communist working to destroy this nation, that they don’t ever see the obvious?

It has taken me quite a bit of time in my life to learn there are things you must make an absolute, must disagree with, and must never veer from principle. Identifying them as deal breakers, those things one can never be anything but completely bigoted, never even considering any reduction in beliefs—for to do so would only magnify that one has no principles, and stands for nothing. Whenever you note them, you refute them; you do not compromise, you do not vary, and you do—as Margaret Thatcher told us; ‘you make sure you’re right, in the principles you believe then never waver.’

When I look at the only remnants of the political opposition standing between this nation’s demise; and surviving to reclaim the mantle of what this nation is—the light of liberty, the only one existing in the darkness of a world dominated by all of the mantras of socialist failure—not matter what the title: communism, socialism, democratic socialism, and yes, less we forget even the dementia of democracy. All of which have all proven to be nothing but travesties of the highest order; as they must be, for they are all government.

At the dedication was our current representative as president making the following statement, ‘There are times where you wish you could turn back the clock.  And what I know is true about President Bush, and I hope my successor will say about me, is that we love this country and we do our best.’

How can such a statement be made? In the history of this nation, there have been times of great despair. The problems of this nation are not something shirked, or ignored. From the very beginning, this nation was founded in turmoil, in the clash of philosophical idealism of a strange concept, liberty, and all the other governments which were then, and are today nothing but an extension of the law of the jungle; the right of the might, no matter who is in charge; or what title of government one give is, for it is still government.

As such, this simple idealism—this idea that a government could be governed by those very people being governed—could manage their own affairs. This is a concept unknown, untried, and never advanced in the empirical history of mankind.

In that history man men have been elected to be the servant for the people, and occupy the executive position of this great nation. Many have brought concepts that veered from this nation’s design. Some have even been able to change the course of this nation; a course that has changed the wonder of this absolute miracle, to a mirrored image of not a wonder of man’s hopes, but advancing failure, repeating that of all another nations. Nations that failed to advance man’s ideals, while succumbing to duplicate mankind’s many failures, in some ill attempt to control the most dangerous entity of man—government.

Why is this nation not aware of the most dangerous of all presidents this nation ever experienced was Abraham Lincoln? Why do we not know the why? Why do we hide the reality that this man, established the first dictatorship, became our first tyrant—refuting all of the enumerations, and legal precedents of our form of government—and used executive power to order the military of the national government to use military force subjugating those of his direction.

Why does this nation not shudder in horror whenever we hear those who would change our government, our way of life, and the basic natural rights of man—when they hear the word progressive, communist, Democrat, and the many other monikers they supply, hiding the simple fact that all of these name stand for one thing…you will be as serfs, slaves of government, the ‘Eloi’ of ‘The Time Machine,’ where man is reduced to not man, but an existence of the animal world.

What does it take? When we look at the destruction of what progressives have done. Who in this nation cannot understand that the 17th amendment, taking the ‘state’ representation of government control of national government away—allowed an entity you cannot vote for control of our nation—the political party, the death of individual freedom, untouchable, outside the reach of the ballot box, or any other means of the electorate.

Why do we not know the originator of this destruction of our society, our wonder, our miracle of this nation? How in the name of Hades this nation ever elected Woodrow Wilson is beyond comprehension. One only has to read his own book, ‘Congressional Government’ to identify he agreed with Carl Marx, not our founding fathers.

Why was the nation so intelligent then, electing the only American president in the modern era who was literate, and understood the principles of what our government was designed to do—only govern, not be a totalitarian sovereignty of our society—Warren Harding. A man who not only was America second George Washington, as he returned our nation to the constitutional principles—and we’ll never know, if he would have been president for 8 years what a nation we could have perhaps become; the questions just jump out—would he have overturned the 17th amendment, the 18th amendment, and all of the other government intrusions that were cause of so much of the social disorder in this nation—we’ll never known. Yet we do know this, he established the term ‘founding fathers;’ think of that concept in comparison to such insanity as ‘we will fundamentally transform this nation’—the highest ignorance ever spoken by any politician in the history of this nation!

This nation survived the absolute dictatorship of Franklin Roosevelt, who once again, was able to convince the American public that the answer is government, without one example of where it has worked, how it was successful or how it can ever work. For it forgets the one basic ‘reality,’ that government, cannot give anything to anyone, without taking from others to have something to give.

Yet look at the death knoll created by Franklin Roosevelt, injected socialism, the communism of government being a player in the economy into our economy—which has magnified and infected our society to levels only the communist of the Democratic Party imagined.

Yet intrusion has not stopped. While the Republicans when in power did nothing to destroy these errors; they in the name of government power, continued the inanity, refuting our nation’s design.

Think of Jimmy Carter’s government intrusion, the Education Department, reducing the academic achievement of our nation from the best in the world, to now we are becoming an illiterate nation—how do we recover? He created an energy department that has destroyed more trees, writing insanity on paper, while never providing one single candle of energy power spending trillions of dollars in the process.   

Yet in comparative analysis, there is only one nihilist of comparison to our current train wreck; Lyndon Johnson. For Lyndon Johnson signed the legislation that was the true death knoll of this nation. On October 3, 1965 the Democrats passed legislation that decreed this nation has no ‘rights’ as a nation, it is nothing but a place where the mores, mores, and the religion of this nation are declared null and void—and this nation has not the right of determining its own sovereignty. For it was on this day America died.

Yet with all of the mistakes the ‘communist, progressive, or call it Democratic Party’ has brought us; none hold a candle to the nihilism—the absolute unrelenting design to destroy this nation—of our current disgrace.

I’d challenge anyone on the face of the earth to a debate to the death on this one subject; show me one thing that this present administration, and this current excuse of a president has proposed or done for the good of this nation. For the answer is easy—for there is not one thing proposed by this current congress or this administration for this nation’s future. The inverse is fact; every piece of legislation, every presidential directive, every action, every bureaucratic action, every judicial activity, every single action has been for this nation’s destruction. The application of the word, the absolute nihilism of; we will ‘fundamentally transform’ this nation. 

Is not the reality of reality enough to convince the Republicans that you do not have some social tea with those who would destroy this nation? Is it not beyond comprehension to watch this political class, of both political parties refuting the design of this nation? Refuting the principles of this nation, and who apparently look at this political arena is a social event, a party spending others money they take by taxation, or borrow in their name. While they never acknowledge there are those with one and only one objective; the destruction of this nation.

This is not a time of nice; this is a time of war. If this nation is to be preserved then an opposition of the march to communism—the only path that this current nihilism is taking—must occur, or the wonder of this nation will continue on its course of spiraling destruction.

For our current president to say: ‘we love this country’ makes all of the previous lies he’s made seem but insignificant; only magnifying the absolute disgrace he has been, and will continue to be!

Daily we all continue our journey, and with expectation that the society in which we live will remain constant, go about our daily lives.

Shouldn’t that be our expectation? Is there any among us who should feel that tomorrow, we should not experience our daily lives—as we wish to live our daily lives?

We all make decisions of what we do in our lives. Some will go to work at a job we applied for, they accepted our application, and we put in our labor, our efforts to generate business or service for whoever we work for—if even we just work for ourselves—to continue our commitment as an individual—to live our lives in a society where ‘liberty’ is the foundation, and our expectations remain that government will restrict its intrusion into our lives, preserving our ‘freedom!’

Is this so abnormal? Is there something about this reality, this society that has existed since our knowledge of literacy on mankind? Is this not something that has been the environment of this nation since our very founding—why is it that this is wrong?

Is it not interesting that so many accept this as normal; while never once taking even enough time to evaluate or think about the why this exists?

How many among our society ever bothers to stop for one second and realize that our society is not the society that exists anywhere else in the world? Who bothers for one second to realize that a nation with our foundations—throughout the history and scope of all societies on this earth—has never been or even attempted?

This sad reality was magnified when I read this article from Stanford University this morning. I’ll share for your evaluation.

http://engineering.stanford.edu/news/world-through-rose-colored-blinders-new-mathematical-model-how-society-becomes-polarized

If you read this absolute insane conclusion of irrational analysis, is not the first question one should ask, excuse me—while in an environment of communist intrusion into our society—there is a wonder why polarization of opposition between those who would destroy this nation; and those who would preserve this nation…are not even considered in the equation?

First of all, as Americans we must face the reality that our foundations are different from all other societies on this planet. You can live in some illusion that all people are alike, the constrict, ‘people are just people’ has no validity; if there ever was a falsehood—a societal lie, this is it.

We as human beings may all be created equal in substance—but we are all different depending on the foundations of the mores and standards of the society in which we matriculate.

Researching this presentation, it was interesting to find that the individuals participating are not of the English, American cultural foundation. Now what makes so many in this nation believe that ‘all people, from al environment’ have the same cultural foundation? Is that not beyond rational comprehension? Do we need a more obvious example that the individual who is our current president to not recognize this reality? Think of our presidents cultural foundations; he was raised in a foreign country, in a foreign religion, in a foreign society—and then was sent to this nation—where he was inundated by an individual who did not adhere and believe in American principles, but was one who believed that theft, and totalitarian sovereignty government…the diametric opposite of this nation design…was an acceptable form of societal governance. Is it any wonder this individual is so confuse, advancing communism, and actively participating in the nihilism of this nation’s foundations? Or should we not reach the opposite conclusion, if one is indoctrinated from childhood—who has the basic conformity of a culture not of our nation—then how is this magic transformation thought possible? Would it not be more obvious that if one does not have the mores of our society, it is obvious they do not view this nation through the same perspective that one immersed in American, Christian, English culture, and English knowledge of the journey taken to achieve where we are currently? Would not it be obvious that if you are not immersed in this wonder of the miracle of this nation; you probably don’t get it?

There is not one among us who is not the product of the social and family environment from which we came. We each and every one of us by our own choice, conformed, to certain aspects of that society—for our own specific wants. We learn the language of our society, so we can communicate. Why, so we can learn those magic words that seem intrinsic in our character—mine, give me, want—the magic refrains that allow us to get what we want. The first acknowledgement of independent decision making we have after our instinctive talents of defecating in our pants, and screaming at the top of our lungs.

This reality, which is as obvious to anyone who ever engages their brain, is the reason that the wonder of this nation was so protected when the first immigration laws were made.

This nation was but an extension of the tribulation experienced on the path to identifying government is the most dangerous entity ever conceived from the minds of men, and that no government is the ultimate desire, but if you must have…as George Washington told us; this necessary evil…then restrict, restrict, and restrict the intrusions that government can interfere.

As such, the reality identified by Edmund Burke...the people of the colonies are descendants of Englishmen.... They are therefore not only devoted to liberty, but to liberty according to English ideas and on English principles. The people are Protestants... a persuasion not only favourable to liberty, but built upon it....

There are many who have never explored the correlation of how Protestant Christianity, the bedrock of the philosophical idealism of this nation, is so important to our constitutional design. Yet it is the genesis. This theology of personal rights and responsibility interwoven into our society is our society. This foundation was annealed in the cauldron of opposing opinions of many ideological, political, philosophical, and even economic considerations which is the history of England, the apex of the Western canon, and the advancement of man’s determination of individual protection of natural rights.

This wasn’t something that someone thought of yesterday, or has some epiphany in their own person relativism that genesis occurred this morning. Everything, everything in our nation’s construct of laws, of our design, or our vision of something unknown was based on the relative analysis of what has happened before, and then rejecting that which failed, and accepting those things that empirical history has shown us has succeeded.

Should we not use historical success as the guide to what this nation does with its law making? Or shall we continue this alternative of ‘emotional’ irrational, illogical, decision making in some hallucination of egalitarianism ideology to advance concepts that when applied have never once had the slightest example of success?

Is this nation of wonder, condemned by some power we cannot identify, this ‘terminal illness’ of our governments own design to destroy, to continue this nihilism of this nation’s wonder?

As a society, when we do not know who we are, we do not know why we have the foundations we do, the bedrock of mores that make the anchor of our society; then is it not obvious we are at exposure to our own destruction, based on our own absolute ignorance?

In the report they made this hypothesis; ‘there is a phenomenon called in social sciences called biased assimilation. In biased assimilation people more easily accept evidence that supports their opinion and, likewise, are prone to discredit evidence that does not fit. More specifically, people     look at inconclusive evidence in a way that is most favorable to their existing view.’

What is absolutely remarkable, is that their hypothesis of what is, or should be, the variances of diversion from whose standards? It is their foundations of what they assume, or guess, or hypothesize what is the polarization of attitude that society should gravitate toward. Is this not insanity at its highest order?

There is in our society a lack of principle. We accept the term, compromise, when compromise is the absolute dumbest, most ignorant, and illogical concept of social function ever advanced. Why would anyone accept this hypothesis? Who advanced this insanity? Why do we accept it?

It is advanced by those who refuse that there is right and wrong. Example, one should compromise to circumvent the design of the constitution? What insanity is this? One only changes when you find something of a better design, or a greater success. If this evaluation is not conducted, this decision of intelligence not applied, and the reasoning of the why not identified—then why in the name of Hades would one back down from their principles, based on fact, and examples of success, to compromise—thus reducing the correctness of the beginning?

There is reality in this nation we have forgotten. There is good and bad, there is right and wrong, there are those who are not as the philosophical idealism of this nation’s design. These are facts; these facts are magnified every day in our daily lives.

It is why in 1924 when the decision was made, we must preserve the ‘homogeneous’ society of our nation’s demographics wasn’t some racist, or anti anybody decision. It was a decision that in the empirical history of mankind, there is not now, or never had been a society where peace resided unless the population has—as Montesquieu identified long before this nation’s beginning—a nation must have the mores, the morals and the religion of the people before any government can ever be; if the ideals of liberty, and the protection from government, preserving freedom, are to exist.

Our nation’s foundations are not the charter of the United Nations; our foundations are the only nation ever designed to preserve and protect the dignity, and the liberty of man; and we have forgotten that reality!

Once again in the journey of life, we wake up in absolute wonder of the events occurring around us; without seeing any reason to the observations made by so many.

Where does one even begin to attempt to understand the reactions of those in power, our current journalistic presentations, and even the American people’s reactions to what is occurring?

Are we as a nation so lacking in any capacity to even use our own individual powers of intellect, to reach some decision of intelligence in evaluating—not the travesty, but the tragedy—currently occurring are seen in some hallucination refuting reality.

Let’s look at reality; what are the things society is being inundated on a continuum in today’s latest sensationalism?

Let’s see; we have those who are anti-societal without reason, take the action to unilaterally kill innocents that they do not ever know. This overview covers much, does it not? The bomber, the insane irrational inhumane individual who in some irrational concept thinking they are government, and have the right to kill others by their own determination, kill premeditatedly yet random of their fellow man. The drug confused child, the adolescence, the immature mind, lacking reason, to conclude some illusion in their own mind to correct emotional stability, unilaterally murders innocent, unrelated individuals in a mass shooting of insanity. We are inundated by this psychotic psychopath premeditatedly mass murderer identifying the most innocent, the least capable of protection; the children of this nation as his victim. We are knowing, but silent in the ‘drive by press’ of the mass murder of a ‘butcher’ repeating the draconian insanity of the Holocaust—in Nazi German. Where the truly most innocent, the embryo of man, is discarded by the whim of the civil right of government legislation; in the name of women rights.

Tragedy, tragedy followed by more tragedy—without reprise, a tsunami continuous of man’s inhumanity to man; and we are shocked?

Is it not more appropriate to conclude; what should be our expectations?

Who can say the nation we have today is even some semblance of this nation’s design? If so, what is it that makes you think anything in this nation is even remotely representative of this nation’s creation? I rack my mind, I read the history, I listen to those who follow this nation’s journey, I read the journalist endeavors of our press, I search, listen, and interact with those I have confidence in their intelligence of reasoning, I listen to those who speak of the wonder of this nation; yet, I’ve yet to find anyone who can tell me this nation today is anything like the design of wonder of its genesis.

Is it I who is at fault in this observation? Is it my philosophical idealism of the wonder of this nation—which is absent in our present condition—making this observation unobservable? Is the bigotry of my wonder of our nation’s design—where I have absolutely no time, no patience, no abstraction of irrational thought of those who would digress this nation’s wonder—that is blinding me of reality?    

In my own contemplation, why is it that there is no example, no single event that I can identify, no action of our administration or this present congress of government, which identified anything that is being advanced for this nation’s preservation? Nor is there any action being proposed that not only does not advance, but even preserves the basic constrict of ‘protecting and preserving’ the ‘constitution’ of this nation!

Is it not still the oath of elected officials to swear that oath to ‘preserve and protect, these constricts?’ Or has our world changed so that the relativism of those literately capable of reading and writing, but lack any literacy in government, economics, or even the slightest acknowledgement of history; by their naïve interpretation of reality create their own ‘relevance’ of this reality in their own mind—thus making it legitimate?

Is not the question, who are we, and why have we reached such a demented society of illogical mores? Who are we, when asked an American, is not known. Is this not a problem, perhaps the reason that everything else this nation is doing is so absurd and senseless to those who believe in this nation’s design, are so beyond comprehension?

There are many who have identified this nation; from our father of this nation, George Washington, to our modern day equivalent of the sage of wisdom, Thomas Sowell who have eloquently stated our wonder.

Yet one statement in my inquiry says it all, as it identifies the foundations—the why we are what we are—better than any other I’ve encountered.

Edmund Burke made this identification of the wonder of the ‘colony;’

...the people of the colonies are descendants of Englishmen....They are therefore not only devoted to liberty, but to liberty according to English ideas and on English principles. The people are Protestants...a persuasion not only favourable to liberty, but built upon it....My hold of the colonies is in the close affection which grows from common names, from kindred blood, from similar privileges, and equal protection. These are ties which, though light as air, are as strong as links of iron. Let the colonies always keep the idea of their civil rights associated with your government,—they will cling and grapple to you, and no force under heaven will be of power to tear them from their allegiance. But let it be once understood that your government may be one thing and their privileges another, that these two things may exist without any mutual relation,—the cement is gone, the cohesion is loosened, and everything hastens to decay and dissolution. As long as you have the wisdom to keep the sovereign authority of this country as the sanctuary of liberty, the sacred temple consecrated to our common faith, wherever the chosen race and sons of England worship freedom, they will turn their faces towards you. The more they multiply, the more friends you will have; the more ardently they love liberty, the more perfect will be their obedience. Slavery they can have anywhere. It is a weed that grows in every soil. They may have it from Spain, they may have it from Prussia. But, until you become lost to all feeling of your true interest and your natural dignity, freedom they can have from none but you.

 

In identification Burke says what this nation is; as it mirrors the same philosophical of Montesquieu; ‘The spirit of the laws is affected by…the general spirit of the people (their virtus), mores (their internal belief systems, attitudes, and values), and manners (externally manifested civility in the public sphere). Each country is unique and that determines their national psyche.     

 

We are a nation—this United States—of this continent so different from anything every attempted in the history of the world; we often seem like we don’t understand that reality.

How do we think, that we are not such? What comparative in the history of mankind can we hold up and say; see we are this? The answer is simple; we cannot for there are none.

What we are is a nation lost; today we are as confused as Moses wandering in the Sinai. We have forgotten our foundations, our mores, our morals, our religion—which is so vital to our very construct—that if separated from the idealism of our wonder makes the whole invalidated, without merit.

I challenge all to ask some simple questions; one, why in 1921 this nation in their innocent was able to rationally realize that there are undesirables in this world, and the last thing we need to do is allow those who are not of our homogeneity—but are from ideologies bent on our demise—are somehow not undesirable to this nation’s salvation?

While you’re at it ask this also; why is it that this nation in some ‘relativism’ or irrational reasoning content to watch our government deconstruct the very foundations of our nation’s design? Why are we content to allow the national political parties to determine our senators, and not the political entities of the states, representing the people?

Why are we not adamant when those in our nation; refute and ignore the constitutional design of this nation, the laws, the decisions, and the actions enumerated by design, demanding ‘impeachment’ and the removal from office those who do such? Why are we not preparing criminal action against those politicians who break the law—for their removal, and their imprisonment?

Think of this reality—in WWII president Roosevelt had so many communist in his administration that Army intelligence would not share their knowledge with the administration; for whenever they did, that same information was in the outgoing dispatch to Russia from the State Department. What do we do when the whole of this administration, and the communist cell members dispersed throughout our government are so many; they outnumber the Americans in the political environment? Do we but pray that there are those who are for this nation; making damn sure the administration is kept as far away from anything of importance as possible?

We must remember just how devious the communist determined to destroy this nation are. Think of the lifetime spent by Judge Roberts to gain access, as a phony conservative, to the Supreme Court. Think of the time, the effort, all for the opportunity to have someone in the right place at the right time to advance the communist agenda; with his wild hallucination of the obama cluster is a tax—even the most ignorant of all law student in this nation would confirm this is ludicrous.

Wake up, engage your own reason, develop your logic, and observe the obvious. That is one thing about the communist; they’ll tell us exactly what they are doing, for they patronize and condemn this nation as the most ignorant group of citizens ever in any nation in the known empirical history of mankind.

Human nature doesn’t change just because of the economic or political environment in which man resides.

Sounds like the most ridiculous statement one could make doesn’t it. Yet the greatest clash of ideologies occurs with this dogmatic belief that man changes when in, or advocating a certain belief in ideology, theology, or economic activity.

As an example, in this nation we have a polarizing diametric opposition between those who believe in the ideology of communism vs. those who believe in the liberty and freedom of nature’s laws, and nature’s God, the natural rights of man; that somehow by this differential, are some preordained genetic differential in the actual species of mankind. Now if we are going to be ridiculous, isn’t this about as ridiculous as one can be?

Let’s look at the reality of what is reality. Those same characteristics that are the driving force of the communist are identical to the driving force of the most adamant driving capitalist that has ever lived. The natural laws, the foundations of mankind, which exist without any indoctrination, the natural desire of all men…and women…is that we all have the same principles controlling our actions. We study them in psychology, and in sociology that there are basic needs…these are represented as Maslow’s hierarchy of needs—the theory of human motivation. The most basic, even in his description is—man has basic, natural requirements. It is as simple as, we need air to breathe. We need food for sustenance. Which in reality leads to the next obvious conclusion, something’s are really free—such as the air we breathe. Something’s have a cost, such as the food, or the effort we do in order to gain food. This isn’t some academic hypothesis; this is the reality of mankind since our known history of existence.  

So what is the motivation of mankind? Is it not to achieve, to earn, to get the most we can with the effort, or the time of our lives we commit to an activity? Is this not the ‘is’ of what life ‘is?’

Let’s look at a comparative of looking at reality. In the cartoon character we have Popeye, whose iconic statement; ‘I ‘is’ what I ‘is,’ identifies him. Now make that as a comparative to those who believe in the ideology of not the rules of natural law, and the nature’s constants; but believes in some fuliginous anecdotal statement such as; ‘it depends on what your definition of is, is!’ Could there be a more ridiculous statement?

It is the same with those who believe in the ideology of theft is as legitimate as the ‘reality’ of personal responsibility and effort.

Should we not make a comparative between the two diametric opposing concepts, and then ask ourselves, is the motivating factor different; or is it the same?

Those who say they are communist say this little ditty; ‘to each according to his needs, from each according to his ability.’ Is that reality?

Let’s measure how this would be represented in mathematical presentation.

Say that ∑ summation of effort, of work from one = ($) the reward of what that effort achieves.

Now in the American economic we are a merit based, or were merit based until the travesty of ‘civil rights, and affirmative action’ where the ability, the value of the individual was the measurement of effort. It would be the ∑ of the effort, which is the function of many ƒ functions. Such as the ƒ education, the knowledge one has, the ƒ of experience, what one has done, the ƒ of that God given differential of intellect, the ƒ of the time and effort of using one’s intellect to gain and project intelligence, and perhaps even the ƒ of wisdom, that is the aggregate of intelligence and measurement over time resulting in perspectives and decision making.

So we would have in the merit world;  ∑ ƒedu ƒexp ƒint ƒintel ƒwis = the rewards, the value, the payment one would receive—the $’s one is capable of producing.

Now let’s look at the design of the dementia of communism. Can we even make the consideration in the same mathematical evaluation? I’d say no; because are we not only to receive our needs, no matter what our effort? So would we not have to look at the mathematical evaluation from the reverse? We know the result, it is a constant, supplied by the state; it will equal the same, no matter what you do. So let’s make our equation as the result the $’s we are paid or given will be a constant. So we have (c) $’s—dictated by government = the effort to provide for those dollars.

Now if we make an equation we’d have $’s= (?). Now here is where we have the problem. Who decided the ability of all men? How can we tell, do we give all an intelligence test, and those who are higher, in some in-egalitarianism of God, required to provide more? Or should it be that because one has more education, forgetting that that is a change in the egalitarianism done by effort, which should be required to provide more?

We have examples of the problem with this system; who can forget the famous words of the Soviet Russian woman, who on the clock while standing in line to buy bread, made the moniker of communism; ‘we pretend to work, they pretend to pay us!’

If the results are constant for all, then why would any do the effort to be able to do more? Is this not an example of irrational reasoning?

I’ve always wondered if the ideology of communism is so wondrous, why is it never the choice of any society at the beginning? Yet when contemplating it, I realized that it was attempted three times that I can recall just from my limited memory. First in the settlement of Virginia, the Jamestown second experiment; in such they decide that all would work, so all could share. Compounding the problem, the brought along some royalty, that had no idea, as Maynard G Krebs of Dobie Gillis fame would say—work!—whenever the concept of work was mentioned. The results were predictable. Why should those who work, do so, when those who don’t receive the same results as those who don’t? We only know of this result because of supply ships showed up saving the colony.

This insanity was tried by the Pilgrims settling in Massachusetts, where they would base their society on ‘love’ and respect for their fellow man—making the theology of Christianity an ideology of social accord. The results, no one took care of the ‘communal’ fields, and the colony almost starved, before they decided that the natural motivation of man for his own preservation was the only sensible driver of man’s activity!

There is another example that is also interestingly some combination of both communal and natural motivation. IN the story of Robinson Crusoe is an interesting example of communism. For Crusoe had the technology of society, what he took from the wrecked ship. Then he dedicated all the effort of all—which was just him, in a communal effort for the benefit of all—which was also him. The result, he did survive, and he did by being both sides of the equation, the supplier and the consumer, actually provide an example of how communism can work.

So if we interpolate the data we have, is there some conclusion that we can come to with some conviction? Is it not obvious, that communism can work; but it can only work if there is not someone else from which to steal their effort for your needs!

This is the fallacy of thinking mankind is different. The motivation is constant. IN the merit based world the more one has value, the harder one works, the more valuable one makes themselves the more the rewards of effort.

Communism is the exact opposite. As the rewards are constant, and cannot be varied—the only way one can satisfy the nature of man—is to do less. The nature of mankind is to learn less, understand less, do less, and know less—for then when at the lowest common denominator of society—are your rewards the greatest. For you have the least value of all, while being rewarded equal to all; providing your needs.

There has never been a more demented dementia ever created from the mind of man in the empirical history of mankind. Yet today we have those who believe that this is a more desirable society in which to live than the reality of self-determination, self-responsibility, and individual effort. It is a scary world when the mind of so may have been convoluted in such a way to circumvent the very basic psychological motivations of man!
