FOLLOW THE MONEY
US funds will follow the interests of the American oligarchs….AKA American interests overseas…..Americans are reminded “we are not a democracy, we are a constitutional republic. Jobs have been sent overseas where manufacturing is controlled by foreigners, resulting in empty shelves and high prices in the USA. Demands for a 1-payer comprehensive public health care system by a majority of Americans are ignored by political recipients of industrial big-money campaign contributions. Most deadly is the Climate Change caused by abuse of nature and our environment. The USA feels like the engine of worldwide military aggression and oligarchical models.
DEFINE PEACE
What do we call peace under the influence of Climate Change caused by profiteering by hierarchy?
Fundamental refining of approaches to existence are needed in order to enhance quality of life for everyone. Dependence on hierarchy to initiate remedies inevitably will lead to the same system we now endure, due to corruption. Quite plainly when economic excellence is the priority, as inviting as this seems, in the end division will prevail as to who benefits and who pays the price.
WHAT CAN BE DONE NOW?
To lead by example is preferable to dictating. The USA can do this with the involvement of We The People; in FACT there is no other way. Politicians have over centuries been recognized for what they are. Money in elections has not burnished their image.
Electronic Communism
One is no more impressed or distressed by communism as one is with capitalism; because each seems opposite sides of the same coin of authority and hierarchy. One prefers principles of our democratic Constitutional republic. One dares to mention democracy as we are flirting with a world war under the banner of supporting democracy in the Ukraine, even as we are reminded that the USA is not a democracy by some authority/hierarchy characters. What could be their purpose?
SANITY COULD HELP?
Putin may or may not be insane, but what about the rest of us? Or at least honesty.
REFUGEES OF MOTHER EARTH
Is it a wonder that some of the elite are planning for a future away from Mother Earth?
GLOBALISM
Oligarchs are the winner in war, local communities are not and neither is nature. The winners write the narrative to promote their interests for history. War is on the side of Climate Change. Industry profits exceptionally. Economic globalism without communal globalism is a travesty.
WOULD NUCLEAR WAR END CLIMATE CHANGE?
We have the ability to build out a renewable and sustainable energy grid but choose to retain obsolete and harmful types of energy production in abeyance to oligarchical wishes. How much of US military action around the globe that includes Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, to name a few, is to “spread democracy around the world” that is a euphemism for protecting oligarchical interests. Use of military action rather than good governance seems to have promoted movement to the brink of war. Too many nations have nuclear arms, including the USA. Climate Change is still the existential crisis of our lifetime. How ironic if a nuclear war was the remedy to Climate Change caused by over-industrialization.
EVOLUTION OF BIRD BRAINS
Wonder never ceases as nature unfolds, and people pay attention. This raises questions about the evolution of human brains, that may be developing contrary to the wisdom of nature, and more through the chauvinism of technology. Ability to indoctrinate human beings raises a few questions.
THOSE PEOPLE IN TOUCH WITH SOUL
Having first heard of pausing of highway construction projects in Iceland to consider the interests of the elves, one has noticed these stories popping up occasionally. The same may happen in many Indigenous communities with less success, probably because cash has bought into positions of power, so many politicians with larceny in their hearts. Apparently in Iceland this hasn’t happened as yet.
WORLD’S LARGEST dEMOCRACY
Capitalism thrives in India as arrogantly as it does in the USA, along with Establishment assertions that both are democracies, but where both are controlled by a collaboration between commercial interests and government politicians and bureaucrats in a fashion that feels exposed to fascism. The result is a system in which hierarchical authority grows and the wealth of the nation transfer from the 100% to the 1% in a way that isn’t similar to democratic (small d).
LEAD BY EXAMPLE
Remembering that the Haudenosaunee are said to be the origin of principles included in the US Constitution that don’t appear to rest on a foundation of capitalism but rather on a foundation of free enterprise as pertains to but are not limited to financial matters, hope continues that culture as lived pre-colonization can triumph. Time will tell. Meanwhile, Upstate NY is benefiting, so far, from said leadership. The hope builds that we remember nature and the wilderness.
CAN WE ENTRUST THE PUBLIC WITH MONEY?
Hierarchy is hierarchy by indoctrination of enough of the public that supremacy for a few is a good idea for everyone. That idea may not be the FACTual. Capitalism promised that unlike it’s co-authoritarian system of communism, capitalism would keep down costs, increase general lifestyle for the most people, and would ensure empty store shelves would not happen. The evidence suggests differently. Public/private partnerships seem a hierarchical shell game to transfer wealth from the public sector to private commerce. Under the commercial system Climate Change is expanding and worsening. Citizens United has legalized the corruption of ownership of legislators by commercial interests. This seems corrupt.
AND WHAT ABOUT THE USA?
War, inflation, pandemics, and obsession over Russia are the fog hiding the US for-profit health care system that isn’t. Not only was Bernie Sanders censored out of view, so was health care. We need a 1-payer comprehensive health care policy.
TECH THAT SERVES RATHER THAN ENSLAVES
We are careening into technological and political enslavement by hierarchical Establishment. Complicated process is not our friend, but is a weapon of aggression toward humanity and nature. Innocuous and trendy innovations that titillate portions of the public, can quickly come to entrap the entirety.
An argument can be made that this is the origin of Climate Change.
