LEGITIMACY OF PEOPLE
Apparently government has devolved into a political-Party demolition team that is more about institution of dictatorship than upholding the US Constitution. At the same time the public can appreciate questioning from Republicans of the abuse of the CIA and FBI by the DOJ under Garland and the Biden Administration, the embarrassment can be recalled, that they upheld powers that simply aren’t permitted in the US Constitution for a comedic DOJ under the Trump Administration. What they do, not what they say…..

Department of Justice Oversight Hearing
Attorney General Merrick Garland testified at an oversight hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Topics included an October memo on threats against school boards and officials, voting rights, immigration law enforcement, the FBI mishandling of the U.S. gymnastics sexual abuse investigation, and investigation of the the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.–end of c-apn info-
It is the lawmaking by the Republican/Democratic duopoly that insinuated quasi-authoritarianism against the US public in the Patriot Act– ———- https://www.congress.gov/107/plaws/publ56/PLAW-107publ56.pdf –UNITING AND STRENGTHENING AMERICA BY PROVIDING APPROPRIATE TOOLS REQUIRED TO INTERCEPT AND OBSTRUCT TERRORISM (USA PATRIOT ACT) ACT OF 2001—end of patriot act info–
https://www.aclu.org/issues/national-security/privacy-and-surveillance/surveillance-under-patriot-act –Hastily passed 45 days after 9/11 in the name of national security, the Patriot Act was the first of many changes to surveillance laws that made it easier for the government to spy on ordinary Americans by expanding the authority to monitor phone and email communications, collect bank and credit reporting records, and track the activity of innocent Americans on the Internet. While most Americans think it was created to catch terrorists, the Patriot Act actually turns regular citizens into suspects.——-end of aclu info–
A rise in domestic terrorism seems to correlate with a rise in authoritarianism. Does this support dictatorship?
Establishment may not purely support “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” unrelated to service to Establishment.

Their collective endowment now stands at approximately $188.2 billion, which is up from $144 billion in 2020.
Now, critics are questioning whether the Ivies have gamed the federal, state, and local tax systems to operate as educational charities.
These schools pay little or no taxes on their investments, endowment gains, and property.

What they do, not what they say……..Several observations—*Indoctrination from Establishment too often convinces people that without a degree from institutions of higher learning, she/he is somehow diminished as a human being*A degree from institutions of higher learning are fine if that is what one wishes*The degree from institutions of higher learning have not related to intrinsic human quality or value*Debt is currently associated with said degrees that place the student in a compromised position from the start*Debt diminishes opportunity and choice*The same Establishment that urges debt onto students have also promoted globalism that has diminished job opportunities, if corporate employment is the goal*Degrees from institutions of higher learning may be indicative of indoctrination*Jobs seem to be a status symbol rather than the foundation for a life to accommodate liberty, equality, and autonomy*Wealth of institutions surpass that of graduates even if numbered en masse to an extent that raises questionsComprehensive training into a trade promotes ability to self sustain economically and individually without selling one’s employment to an entity that may be hierarchical and controlling*Trade training seems to school into ability rather than ideology
The ideology may be as common as greed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WHVf578khs –So… If THIS Isn’t Immoral Then WHAT IS?!!
In this time frame of discussion about choice whether related to control of a woman’s body by herself, mandated vaccines, or mandated masks, employers seem to have the right to insinuate into the lives of their employees. This seems to be a form of authority that cannot be applied to a self-employed individual. This may also be an argument in favor of co-op employment as promoted by so-labeled socialism that seems nothing more than the practice of principles suggested in the Preamble to the US Constitution–We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, 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—
Arguments that socialism and co-ops don’t work seem to ignore the failure of capitalism for the majority of the public. But then rhetoric that is pro-capitalism are made by hierarchy.https://www.socialistparty.org.uk/articles/31474/14-10-2020/are-cooperatives-the-answer-to-a-failing-capitalist-system –Today, some advocates of cooperatives argue that a ‘cooperative socialism’ can emerge from the growth of co-ops.–end of socialistparty info–
…….or the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence—-“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”–end of Preamble to the Declaration of Independence—-
It seems open to interpretation whether all women are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, including control of bodies. Passage of the Equal Rights Amendment would ensure equality that isn’t spelled out for women as it is for men in our US Constitution. This is a conversation of the first right that is human, is intrinsic to people rather than government in the same way that people act out democracy and governments do not act out democracy —————– https://www.equalrightsamendment.org/

In 2020, the Trump administration exempted the Tongass from the Roadless Rule’s protection and opened areas to logging, including centuries-old stands of old-growth trees.Earthjustice is renewing its decades-long fight to protect this national treasure. We have filed a federal lawsuit challenging the rollback of protections on behalf of five Alaska Native Tribes, Southeast Alaska small businesses, and conservation organizations.–end of earthjustice info–
Beyond understanding—–https://portside.org/2021-10-31/surprise-big-bang-isnt-beginning-universe-anymore –No matter where or how we look at the universe, it’s full of matter and energy absolutely everywhere and at all times. And yet, it’s only natural to assume that it all came from somewhere. If you want to know the answer to the biggest question of all — the question of our cosmic origins — you have to pose the question to the universe itself, and listen to what it tells you.–end of portside info–
