MIDDLEMEN OF WWIII
We will find the middlemen between the producers and the consumers, “earning” wealth.
INDUSTRIAL EXPERIMENT ON HUMANITY
As a child of the 50’s, childhood diabetes wasn’t typical. Today reports suggest childhood diabetes is growing. A personal opine is a memory from around 1970 in which one first began to hear about the interjection of corporate interests into the public school system that was explained as profiting both industry and the school system. At that time the first industrial inspiration was soda machines in school systems. So what about the health care costs that devolved onto the general public due to atrocious nutritional habits, while the public school system and industry profited? This seems a perfect setup for public/private partnerships that are so advertised as promoting economic well being. Another definition could be nationalizing risk while privatizing profit.
THE VALUE OF UFO’S
The value of the recent UFO concerns in the USA that has an infinitesimal chance of being aliens from outside of our universe, is the attention-grabbing ability that may accrue toward those who may otherwise be running around in red caps and annoying others. A significant value is to shine light into the dark corner of government secrecy that is out of sync with a democracy.
MYOPIC OLIGARCHY
Oligarchy can be defined by myopia.
The mindset was on display on C-Span this morning.https://www.c-span.org/video/?525774-4/washington-journal-michael-gordon-discusses-chinese-military-capabilities-threats-posed-us –FEBRUARY 12, 2023 | PART OF WASHINGTON JOURNAL 02/12/2023
NEW WORLD ORDER
Most people have heard spoken of, “the new world order”. This is consistently spoken of as to have been inculcated into the public thought process. We haven’t heard a logical and precise definition of what this will entail. This topic comes to mind due to a question that went unanswered from a C-Span caller at about 8:45AM in which a caller questioned about what “the new world order” as first mentioned by Bush (he didn’t say which Bush, but does it matter?) might be.
COMPARE COMMUNISM AND CAPITALISM
One has shared stories from RT recently, and believes this is considered offensive from some quarters. The presumption would be that said sharing represents affinity toward communism. FACTually speaking the intention is more nearly as a comparison between communism and capitalism, which use tactics and seem to have hierarchical motivation that are alarmingly similar. In other words, the purported fear of communism isn’t so much that people would jump on the communistic bandwagon but that currently-indoctrinated people on the capitalistic bandwagon would recognize themselves in the communist targets.
FRESH VIEW
While monopolies are ignored and price gouging has become a way of life under capitalism, workers are subjected to restraint, scrutiny, and exploitation compatible with hierarchical predatory behavior of big business and corporations. Non-compete agreements are only one example.
POLITICS AND RELIGION
Transparency seems important if people are to have the ability to understand the complexity on topics our politicians make decisions about, for the US public. RT has been censored out of the US media line-up. As one who believes one receives propaganda via RT, one also recognizes the propaganda is no more nor less than received byway of CNN, MSNBC, or FOX. This is the reason diversity in news sources is important, along with individuals who are aware enough to compare and investigate upon one’s own.
REALITY WHEN IT IS NOT A SHOW
Is the working class trying to send the message to the ruling class, “don’t push any harder”?
PRIORITIZE HEALTH
The US government seems more involved in policing the globe than protecting the US public. Lack of a 1-payer universal health care policy is an example, at the same time the Pentagon is absorbing the wealth of the nation with no accountability and in FACT with disturbing evidence of having misplaced $22,000,000,000,000 (with a T) of taxpayer money. C-Span hosted a discussion in which a caller questioned the reason for foreign aid to Israel, that is a wealthy nation. Where is that money going and to what end? Why is a wealthy foreign nation prioritized over a US public that is in need?
RECOGNIZE DICTATORSHIP
A Free Press is necessary for democracy. Differing views are important. Sophisticated analysis is possible when opposing ideas are considered.
THE PUBLIC AS ENABLERS
And the USA still denies its citizens a 1-payer comprehensive public health care system that would be less costly, more efficient, and inclusive.
FREE MARKETS AND US AMNESIA
On this small-business Saturday, free market concepts should be important. In the USA, corporate-owned politicians have put into place laws and policies that significantly undermine local sole proprietorship in favor of chain store privilege.
