Capitalism has mandated and legislated regulations and lifestyle by which many of We The People have accepted as rational and in one’s best interests, but FACTually speaking they may be nothing other than sales techniques to enrich hierarchy and commercial interests.  This renter was weary of paying $1,200 per month in rent along with expenses, and imagined living arrangements that suit his personal ability, choices, and lifestyle.

Man Built an Incredible Tiny House With $2,200 and a School Bus

Hierarchy and commercial interests have presumed the right to insinuate into local communities, and have backed up these presumptions with laws passed by politicians who are purchased into office via Citizens United, and who collaborate with hierarchical capitalists in www.alec.org to pass laws that apply to you.
This undermines principles such as are presented in the Preamble to the US Constitution, which Constitution office holders swear to uphold.“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America—end of Preamble—

Past Presidents were sonorous in reminding We The People that “We Are A Nation of Laws”.  We are not, however, according to principles in the US Constitution, fascists.  Yet laws are more nearly dictated by big-money campaign-donor and commercial interests than by We The People.  Past Presidents don’t explain this anomaly as Past Presidents enrich themselves by this system with the excuse that “everybody does it”.
Local community members have been acclimated to accept living conditions inflicted by collaboration of office holders and commercial interests that act more for personal gain than in compliance with concepts in the Preamble to the US Constitution.

“I’m trying to get both sides of this. So I’m just wondering on the record,” said the 12 News reporter. “If the supreme court shut this down, why are you guys bringing this back? In your own words, what’s so enticing about this project for our area?”“Jill, this is not a Q&A, we’re just listening to the people. You can call my office or stop in and talk to Victor anytime you want,” said Town of Vestal Supervisor John Schaffer. “He’ll fill you in and I’ll fill you in on what I know. Thank you for calling, bye.”Before the April 27 meeting, 12 News asked the town supervisor via email for a Zoom chat request for prior to the meeting. Up to this point from airing the report, our station has not received a reply.During the April 27 Zoom, a motion was held to approve or deny the designation of the property as a ‘planned development district’ within the town of Vestal. The motion was approved.–end of wbng info——-This is good journalism, by the way.

The Southern Tier of NYS has a recent history of questionable interaction by bureaucrats toward honest, involved, and responsible citizens.  This is the platform from which a cadre of Sheriffs have called for “a crack down on activists”, insultingly referring to said involved citizens.  This is the Town of Vestal in which law enforcement warned a public-safety advocate that he could be labeled a domestic terrorist due to having used the phrase “bomb truck” to describe vehicles hauling liquified gas on our public roads among family vehicles, ambulances, school buses, and young drivers.
In other words, authority is testing its limits against our hotbed of responsible citizens.
The electrical infrastructure has experienced outages recently…in FACT twice in 1 week, the first lasting 4 days in frigid weather.  These outages are increasing, and even a 30 mph wind gust seems capable of shutting down the system.  Meanwhile, Gillibrand has formed a committee to travel the globe to gather resources and support for the Ukraine during the War with Russia.  Schumer is supportive of The Military-Industrial Complex which it may be assumed donate to political campaigns, and thrive from war.  Schumer also seems to be artful in pushing new technology that is unproven for safety and need, such as the 5G network, while neglecting basic technology such as our local electrical grid.   This raises questions about using military to enforce interests of American oligarchs around the world that is labeled as “spreading democracy around the world and/or protecting US interests overseas”.  Meanwhile local US communities are becoming accustomed to ostensible 3rd-world conditions.  This could be called bait-and-switch and/or churning.  Planned obsolescence also seems probable.
And Tenney is MIA, apparently awaiting the 2nd coming of Trump.
The curiously disregarding attitude from the Vestal Town Board, as reported on WBNG local news, is highlighted by the phrase “this isn’t a Q&A”.   No doubt.   Authority doesn’t like questions.  Too bad the dream of the Sheriffs of “cracking down on activists” isn’t….as yet…..in place.  Bureaucrats could wield more than snide insolence toward community members who ask questions at Town Board meetings.
And Predictably we are hearing “drill, baby, drill” nonsense from some people in the Southern Tier, as though drilling for fossil fuels which use is creating the extraordinary weather that shuts down energy grids in the USA is worth supporting the Ukraine for fascism, or that fossil fuels would provide integrity to the energy grid.  The double talk is epic.
As to the War between the Ukraine and Russia, so few Americans seem to talk about, care about, or are aware of the years-long interference by American oligarchs, some with ties to public office holders, in the European fossil fuel industry.  NATO is an instrument of solidifying this interference.

A point seems valid that the interaction between world-wide oligarchs are less against each other than it is toward world-wide local communities.
NYS is a hotbed of local responsibility that challenges corruption and greed.  The environment cannot be sacrificed for commercial expediency.

On the Bitcoin front, we’ve been coordinating press conferences weekly to bring voice to our concerns that this energy-intensive industry, and the Greenidge facility along the shores of Seneca Lake, pose a threat to our clean air, water, and climate- all of which our thriving agri-tourism industry depends heavily on to support the 60,000 jobs and $3Billion/year it generates for the Finger Lakes. This pales in comparison to the 48 jobs Greenidge claims, with little to no benefit to the region.

We received an independent White Paper from Columbia Law’s Sabin Center giving Governor Hochul a legal road map for how to use her executive authority to deny the Greenidge Permit and adopt a moratorium on this industry while we study its impacts on air, water, climate, the electrical grid and jobs.

We’ve been amplifying this message by getting local, state and national media attention on the issue on a daily basis. We’re partnering with the top environmental watchdog groups and labor unions including the Sierra Club, Food and Water Watch, Earthjustice, NRDC, NYPIRG, Greenpeace, Environmental Working Group, 1199 SEIU and more to help educate and inform, and put more pressure on Governor Hochul to help her understand that this issue impacts all New Yorkers and could set a precedent for other underutilized or decommissioned power plants across our state.–end of senecalake info–

This could make sense in a 1-payer comprehensive public health care policy.   In a pay-to-play system it feels funny.

Hierarchy urges continuation of models that have deviated from ideas such as are expressed in the Preamble to The Constitution.  That those models are transferring power and wealth away from the 100% to the 1% work well for hierarchy, but not so much for the 99%, loosely referring to said stats.  To continue to do the same thing while expecting different results has been called insanity.  We need progress defined in terms of good health, peace, and equality instead of progress defined in terms of greed, exploitation, and aggression.  Consider ideas from CASSE below—

FACTually speaking, Americans seem again as pre-Revolutionary War, to be struggling against the authoritarian characters that may be identified as commercial interests that exploit people and environment for profit.  Ideas were used from the Iroquois Confederation about governance.  Much fidelity has continued from some communities on the topic of what is in FACT democracy, which is given lip service by the US government without actual practice in too many instances.  But a growing number of people are remembering freedom and liberty.
