The Road to Social Success, Peace and Justice: California has the Vision!

Government can Solve Society’s Problems.

Modern government depends upon its citizens to provide services and taxes in exchange for its governance. California has conducted the proper experiments in this social arena and San Francisco is now the model for a new and just society. The government is obviously obligated to supply all the needs of its citizenry in one form or another and to educate the polis as to the correct or preferred conduct for all. Unfairness and bigotry are crimes against humanity and must be punished by strict laws and confiscatory taxes. Any form of conduct must be accepted as an individual choice, hence the fundamental right, of every citizen, but, certain actions enhances the quality of our government by creating the need for special services and providing jobs.  Any form of conduct that refutes the bigoted Biblical ‘morality’ must be accepted as a socially preferred individual choice except those actions the government arbitrarily deems as unhealthy of unsafe.

California has made more progress in the social arena than most other places in the world. The government can minimize all problems in our society if the wealth is properly distributed. Taxation is the road to peace, justice and harmony in our society. Education will show us the way to peace and prosperity and many in our society must be educated about taxation and the evils of capitalism and excessive wealth.  San Francisco has the best plan to achieve this.

The Needs of the Citizen Comes First.

Every citizen has certain strengths and weaknesses as defined by accepted norms of conduct and inherited skills. It turns out that certain views of social actions, particularly the choices not to appease the capitalists and have their labor exploited, are socially and intellectually correct and need to be emphasized in government and education. Those who have a different view of love and society and those who think that the personal choice of using drugs, sex and the just retrieval of misappropriated property or abortion are not crimes are now in the majority of our society.  They will vote to change our society.  We will change the world. While the most important duty of government is education--not law enforcement as one would presume--the resources devoted to the freely-chosen actions of a few provide essential jobs for many citizens who want to serve their government. San Francisco has attained an high  score on the health and social services scale with an impressive list. [1] We need more and easier jobs and fewer restrictions on our life styles. We can have a society with full employment and benefits for all if we force capitalists to surrender most of their ill-gotten wealth.

These essential services are provided by the tax base by taxing those who have exploited our citizens and environment. Workers and tourists and businesses pay appropriate taxes so that the city can provide them to the poor. They could pay much more. The minimum wage in San Francisco is now only $9.36/hour, [2] which is essential to provide the necessary tax base for the government to properly function. This is not, however, a livable wage so it must be much higher, probably $30 or $40 an hour. The tax rate on payroll expense is 1.5%.[3] The city sales tax is 8.50%.[4] A high minimum wage and subsequent high progressive taxes now fund the city services with some money from federal funds. Higher taxes are needed. We need very high marginal income tax rates to recover the money and land that the capitalists have stolen from the people. For the rich, we need a 90% tax rate and 100% for all profits over 1 million dollars per year. Profits are achieved only by trampling the poor and unfortunate and that is the evil of capitalism.  We need a wealth tax to force those who hoard their money to share it with the less fortunate.

 Personal Freedoms, Drugs and their Use.

Citizens must be free and unencumbered by fascist laws  to choose their lifestyles and recreational modes of life. Drugs are a personal choice and loads of fun and the government should not interfere in such personal matters. San Francisco has a Drug Court (SFDC)[5] and the court monitors the progress of the treatment of those persons who elect to enjoy themselves with recreational substances. This is not a crime. Many are arrested for merely choosing a lifestyle that satisfies them and that act of incarcerating the innocent  is inhumane. San Francisco has a Drug Court has an impressive record as stated:

“Since 1996, over 900 participants have graduated from the San Francisco Drug Court. Among them, ninety-three percent of the graduates had a stable source of income upon program completion, 91% had obtained stable housing, and several participants enrolled in school or vocational training while participating in the program. Twenty-percent of the graduates had reestablished contact with their minor children upon graduation.”

This is a unparalleled success and provides hundreds of jobs for court and city employees. Most of our jobs should be oriented so as to assist our citizens with their personal choices and lifestyles. We need more such services and those agencies and task forces provide  many new  jobs. Taking drugs is a basic right and the medical treatment of unfortunate side effects is the responsibility of a caring government.

While considered illegal by some unprogressive cities and counties and the federal government, the drug sharing and fellowship and camaraderie and the concomitant personal choice to enjoy substances actually benefit society. The ‘addict,’ a pejorative label that ostracizes individual freedom, needs special education, counseling, and the protection from law enforcement, medical services and many other special services. All these services are paid for by the government and enhance and broaden the responsibilities of the cities to provide to the citizens what they need. Societies need to be happy and recreational drugs bring happiness. Those who disapprove of drug use need sensitivity training and higher taxes.

We need to legalize all drugs and provide counseling for their use among those who suffer from the ills of capitalism and racism and abuse from the white majority.  The cost of drugs should be very low and subsidized by the government. Drug screening should be abolished and drug testing should only be used to ensure that drugs of choice are pure and not contaminated.

Immigration

There are no human boundaries or fences in this world. The world is not a system of walls and jails. All persons own everything in concert and harmony with the flora and animals on this globe and no group should prevent the poor from enjoying a decent life in the US or elsewhere. We have made the world poor with capitalism. To protect the poor and support their human rights, no San Francisco city tax revenues or any other kind of money may be spent in assisting authorities in enforcing immigration laws.[6] Those laws are forms of racism, bigotry, greed and a crime against humanity. The influx of new citizens means that new jobs can be created to keep and protect persons who come from other countries who would normally be considered to be felons and perhaps deported.  San Francisco has found the way to an enlightened society through proper government.

We have enormous wealth and we must use it to create a new society for those less fortunate and redress the sins of the past. Crimes committed by undocumented workers and other persons are not really crimes, but they do provide a large number of government jobs and enhances the tax base through city taxes.  Those who take the money and property from the upper classes are not committing crimes; they are simply retrieving their fair share of prosperity that was denied them by the rich.  Persons have a right to acquire resources denied them by evil and oppressive government. This is only a just form of reparations and its remedy is way overdue.

“Prostitution”

Love is not a crime and those people who choose to enjoy sex at any age or with any person or their pets are not criminals. Tax cuts are crimes. The city of San Francisco has a just social plan to “Stop the Enforcement of the Prostitution Laws and Bring Protection to Sex Workers”[7] The city has a Task Force on Prostitution that considers such practices by citizens and others as a basic human right and the apprehension, persecution and incarceration of those persons who are merely plying their craft as costly, unjust and ineffective. [8] The sex workers suffer more abuse from the police than from their clients.[9] Sex is love and police actions are war.

Sex workers need the protection of unions and their government for a just society.  Sex workers need a minimum guaranteed minimum wage that allows for a decent life style.

“Murder”

The use of force is always unfortunate, but many times this is only a form of protest and economic self defense and a way to express concern against those persons who conspire to suppress the citizens and force them into poverty and despair. Violence is caused by capitalism and the suppression of human rights as the citizens seek to share drugs and other activities among themselves. The murder rate is unfortunately rising,[10] but this only calls for more jobs and social services for the victims, police, health services, counseling and education. Drugs need to be legalized and destigmatized. Guns need to be banned especially among the fascist police forces that persecute the masses by enforcing their unfair laws. We must provide our citizens with all they need so as to prevent violence. Many existing laws must be repealed and the police forces need to be retrained and their focus redirected toward the real criminals of our society: business and capitalists. The FBI, DEA, IRS and other agencies need to be banned in California.

AIDS

Love is not a crime. Free love should be free and encumbered by laws and agents of the government. HIV infection and the diseases associated with this personal and private pursuit of individual social preferences are unfortunate, but remain one of the main attractions in San Francisco and have created hundreds and thousands of jobs. The CIA created AIDS in the hope that this disease would exterminate the undesirables in society and they succeeded in part in their evil. The people need more drugs and medical services so that they can enjoy a better and longer life and avoid this disease forced upon them by capitalists and evil right-wing government. People need a way to express their love and affection without oppressive government interfering with their lives.  There are no abnormal sex acts—only love. There are numerous social and legal aid societies who support those who want to exploit and enjoy their particular sexual preferences.[11]  The gay and lesbian society is a major source of taxes and tourism for the city. City commerce is enhanced and tourism excels as drug treatment and other services create more and more taxes and create new and unique services. Out of concern, there are numerous services for assisted dying and other options in the city. [12] The age of consent for love should not be dictated by law. Love is ageless and children need love not war.

Education of the Masses.

The capitalists and wealthy persons all need to be firmly educated as to their intrinsic social evils by a new form of education. They must take extensive retraining courses and then pass strict oral and written exams on how ordinary citizens must be appreciated and how their business society has caused misery and suffering around the world. The citizens have a fundamental right to get as much education, or as little if that is their choice, as they desire. The government must provide educational facilities to all that request them at no cost to the student unless they are wealthy.  Educational facilities that teach business and capitalism must be abolished. The capitalists need to be educated as to the following:

[1] If you have money and wealth and property above the median that is proof that you attained these gains unfairly and the government needs to confiscate these holdings and return the excess proceeds to the people. The wealthy must redress the sins of the past. Inheritances must be abolished and all property and wealth must be returned to the government after death.  All money and property ultimately belong to the state.

[2] Capitalism is evil as it exploits the masses and creates poverty and disease. The government needs to control commerce, jobs and taxes so that the remnants of capitalism can finally no longer poison our society. The government can provide food and shelter better than business.  Major corporations and especially oil companies must be nationalized by the government and restructured for the benefit of society.

[3] Education is the key to a great society and those who refuse to accept the decisions of egalitarian government must be reeducated until they agree with the proper and correct goals of government. Education must be free and open to all persons at all ages and for any length of time. Colleges should be enlightened societies and free from rules and academic demands. Examinations, particularly standardized tests, are discriminatory and must not be allowed to poison inquiry and self expression. There is no reason to issue grades. Capitalists use grades to discriminate against the poor and persons of color.

[4] The rights of the people must not be abridged and personal choices about recreational drug use, sex, and freedom from oppressions like forced work rules or tedious occupations must be fully expressed.  Jobs must not be based on cognitive skills. Certain professions must be forced to select students based on quotas or skin color and not by any academic metrics. Only the arrogant think that the average citizen or the cognitively impaired could not become great brain surgeons or engineers.

[5] Health care and rehabilitation for disease must be free and available to all. Capitalism has poisoned our foods and air and created numerous disorders and they should pay for health care with punitive taxes.

[6] Persons of color who have been suppressed and marginalized for the last 500 years in the Western Hemisphere must be given 2 or 3 votes each compared to white males so that they can correct and remediate unfair and biased aspects of society.  All women should have 2 votes and women of color 3 or 4 votes each. This will restore peace and justice to our society and form an inclusive and modern society.

[6] Crimes are not crimes if poor people are forced to commit them for survival. Many must steal money for food for their families as they cannot get jobs in business. This is really not thievery; it is social justice. The political prisoners and victims of corporate crimes must be pardoned and released from incarceration and returned to society where they can live their own lives in their own way without interference from the police or oppressive agencies. Persons who are so-called felons should be free of taxes of any form and local fees forever.

[7] Private property is a privilege reserved only for those enlightened persons who dedicate their lives to improving government and its proper relation to the people. Property unfairly gotten thought the evils of capitalism or business must be returned to the people. Corporations are an affront to a just society and all common stocks and bonds should be reserved for the people. Excessive retirement accounts and IRAs, particularly of the fascist Roth type, must be assigned to the people for proper redistribution.

[8] Capitalism and business have ruined our planet and soon the oceans will die and we will be forced into poverty and cannibalism because of their greed. The air is already loaded with toxic carbon dioxide; the poison of capitalism. The excessive use of energy is responsible for this outrage. Energy production must be severely taxed so that profits cannot be made from this precious resource.  Corporations must be abolished and government controls implemented in necessary cases.

[9] The government is the preferred employer and any person who wants a job should have one that fits their personal preferences with a livable wage and free medical care and retirement benefits.  Persons should be given jobs that they like to do and not be responsible for accounting, profits or goals as the capitalists and business tyrants wish.  The work week should be no longer than 20 hours with several months of vacation and 40 days of holidays per year. Taxes from permitted and limited forms of capitalism must be used to create new jobs and restructure our society. Capitalism must finally be eliminated so that peace and justice and prosperity can be attained for all.

[10] The military must be abolished in all forms. We want peace not war.

Conclusion:

California has shown us the way to prosperity and a system of peace and justice. Our slogans to change our society must include words or phrases like: Starry Psychotic Liabilities [13] or Boyishly Capitalistic Striker.[14]

The End of Clintoonery. [Or is it??]

The New York Times, an immortal mechanism, is like a giant windmill that turns massively to the left and launches fecal missiles in all directions against the capitalists. This behemoth had first endorsed The Second Clinton, then dumped her for something farther to the left and then trashed her for not bowing out. She is still around?-- wonders The Old Red Lady?[1] The Times machine had simply identified a better candidate and made the proper political move to trade up and flake off a mistake as the political  fortunes dictated. This is standard politics.  Not all politics is local. Now, there is a residual effect that needs to be addressed: Some people cannot learn how to play the political game.  Or is that true?

The Prime Mover of this juggernaut is the eternal mandate to glorify any political candidate anywhere to the left of Lenin  while furiously attacking any opponent that might oppose their sacred Marxist  icon or his precepts. They had originally endorsed and praised Hillary based on her strong Saul Alinsky credentials and narrow political training. They tilted in that direction   in the hope that she would lead to an anointment, as The One, until someone farther to the left emerged from the chaos. But, she was ‘sorta’ for the war, a foremost basis for rejection for any person to run for office or own property in the US according to the New York Times, the Walter Duranty Memorial Papers. [2] She tried to sucker the moderates by straddling the fatal middle rail of the  war issue.  Obama, also a Saul Alinsky communist devotee, had the good sense to throw in with Bill Ayers and his radical racists and terrorists, to attract the windy powers of the Old Gray Lady and take the nod. He was always against hunting down terrorists, strong allies of the left since 1989.

The NYT dumped her for this outrage.

To wit, from the Riches of the past works of Frank Rich:[3] [4]

 “By telling an Iowa audience on Tuesday night that he had opposed the Iraq war “from the beginning,” Bill Clinton committed a double pratfall[5]. Not only did he refocus attention on his wife’s most hazardous issue, Iraq, just as it was receding as the nation’s Topic A, but he also revived unhappy memories of the truth-dodging nadirs of the Clinton White House” [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

I guess all the Clinton devotion t o the party went up in a puff of smoke.  Rank this one as being slimed.

This is a strange issue as the NYT stodgily defended Billy during the Lewinsky perjuries. But, that was then.

After one correct prediction we need more information from the sages:

“It’s not just that her candidacy’s central premise — the priceless value of “experience” — was fatally poisoned from the start by her still ill-explained vote to authorize the fiasco. Senator Clinton then compounded that 2002 misjudgment by pursuing a 2008 campaign strategy that uncannily mimicked the disastrous Bush Iraq war plan. After promising a cakewalk to the nomination — “It will be me,” Mrs. Clinton told Katie Couric in November — she was routed by an insurgency. “[6]—Frank Rich[7] February 24, 2008.

Thus, the juggernaut pivots on its most important sing le issue: the War on Terrorism.

The Clintons, realistically, should have read the history of the View Nam war where the liberals were shooting drugs in the streets and waving the enemy flag at the gates of the San Diego Naval Station and chanting jeers.  They wanted the US to lose in View Nam as they do in Iraq.

The Old Red Lady was blunter:

““The time has come. The time has come. The time is now. Just go. ... I don’t care how. You can go by foot. You can go by cow. Hillary R. Clinton, will you please go now! You can go on skates. You can go on skis. ... You can go in an old blue shoe.

Just go, go, GO!””,--Maureen Dowd March 31, 2008

.. ..a toxic screed that we have heard before from the Times [8] Rank this one as a double slime job.

 So, now the Clintons are finished. But, driven by revenge, being an Arkansas staple like rice and red beans, Hillary can pose and prance and stick it to Obama if he loses with: I told you so!!

Hillary can now be the gracious loser, offer to help the party and rip his lungs out later, in the old Clintoonery style. Obama is festooned with disgusting racists anyway and has offended the whites he needs to be elected. Hillary can blame him for that too. Nobody likes a racist unless he makes some kind of political sense.

But, somebody has to pony up the 41 million bucks Hillary blew in her windy tilt with the Old Gray Lady Wind machine’s solemn blessings. Maybe she didn’t read Frank Rich as she should. He is actually a minion and she is accustomed to chuck a few tidbits to scurrilous little beings like him and dismiss the annoyance.  Hillary did learn to ‘tolerate’ Maureen Dowd for a while, but that was years ago.

But, now:

“It’s never going to end,” sighed one Democrat who has been advising Hillary. “We’re just moving to a new phase.”[9]

Hillary wants something, but many are uncertain just what that is.

 From Dowd we read:

“She just urged her supporters to keep the dream alive, and talked privately about what she would settle for. She has told some Democrats recently that she wanted Obama to agree to allow a roll call vote, like days of yore, so that the delegates of states she won would cast the first ballot for her at the convention. She said she wanted that for her daughter. [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

“Obama supporters are worried that it’s a trick and she’ll somehow snatch away the nomination. Just as Hillary supporters have hardened toward him, many of Obama’s donors and fans have hardened against the Clintons, saying it would be disillusioning to see them on a ticket that’s supposed to be about fresh politics.”[10]

We know what it is: power. Next time, the Walter Duranty Papers[11] ought to vet their candidate and avoid such problems as Hillary. But, then, did they know about Jeremiah Wright?? Oh well, there is always next time.

Wake up America, the bungling Republicans still have a chance to retain the White House.

Dr Doom of the New York Times Predicts Doom for Democrats?

 Throughout the ages the soothsayers, conjurers, quacks and wizards have warned us of doom. Nostradamus,[1]has predicted several cataclysmic events and even the end of the world. Of course, there are variants of disaster as each of us may experience our own private little dooms day. On a grander scale, however, there are legions that hope for such doom and drool at the prospect of personal gain in political power and wealth. The ignorance of the populace propels this continuum of disasters. How many good citizens were surprised that the Cheka[2] visited them in the night and shot the whole family? That was a form of doom for many who opposed the left.

David Brooks or the BabblingBrooks as I refer to him announces the new title from his new perch:

“So my role today is Dr. Doom — to break through unmerited confidence and raise the anxiety level in both [McCain and Obama, ed.] camps.”[3] [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

We know that the NYT—aka the Walter Duranty Papers[4]-- always praises and anoints the person or cabal that is farthest to the left of the left so we know how this doom must end. They also have little or no contempt for the Cheka, KGB or Moscow Central Planning.  But, our Babbler strokes some firm histrionics from recent primary history and extracts some terrifying observations, some of which are, unexpectedly, true.

“Since effectively wrapping up the nomination, Barack Obama has lost 7 of the last 13 primaries. Obama’s confidants say that this doesn’t matter. In states like Pennsylvania and Ohio, primary election results are no predictor of general election results.”

“…Obama has only a 0.7 percent lead over McCain in the RealClearPolitics average of polls. His favorability ratings among independents has dropped from 63 percent to 49 percent since late February.”

This is heresy. Does he still have a job after the last primary, which is today?

There is a lot of obvious stuff missing in this interesting piece. We don’t hear very about Jeremiah Wright and other dead buzzards that hang around Obama’s neck, but we get this anti-McCain—anti-Bush fluff:

“Finally, the Obama people are too convinced that they can define McCain as Bush III. The case is just factually inaccurate. McCain will be able to pull out dozens of instances, from torture to global warming to spending, in which he broke with his party, as Rush Limbaugh will tell you.”

Obama’s racism and those who hate America flock to the senator and are repellent to many white voters who would vote for Hillary. This stuff is dismissed by referring to Bush, as the new hope [insert ‘change’] of the future is anchored in the past.  Big government and ever higher taxes are the only two important factors for the left.

"And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."[5]-- Barack Obama

This is not a issue?

Here is the point that makes the difference:

“More fundamentally, McCain’s problem is that his party is unfit to govern.”

The word ‘unfit’ here might apply to the criminal blowhard from Massachusetts [pick one] or to the senile Senator Byrd or maybe Rep Jefferson from LA who has been indicted. Gee, no problem with their ‘fitness?’ Hillary Clinton is not mentioned in this blurb so is she ‘unfit?!’

The Babbler gets to the economics of the middle class with this result from years of study:

“I’ve spent the past few years trying to find conservative experts to provide remedies for middle-class economic anxiety. Let me tell you, the state of free-market thinking on this subject is pathetic.”

We have a very low unemployment rate ‘[Germany is 9.1%] and the most prosperous middle class in the free world, but they seem to have some anxiety. We could ask about the effects of tax cuts and then wonder how tax hikes to pay for free health care and other benefits for illegal aliens might affect this ‘anxiety.’ We can also wonder how the high cost of gasoline, an issue now, might figure into this anxiety. The new ‘carbon tax’ legislation submitted by Barbara Boxer would burden our economy with several trillion dollars worth of phony and expensive carbon ‘credits.’ We had 3500 murders in the inner cities in the top biggest cities (in 2007 alone[6]) mostly because of business problems with drug sales.

Can we inquire about the opposite of a free-market economy and ask what that might look like? Oh! Like Europe? Like France or Germany or England, all strangling in socialism, protectionism and swarming with Islamo-Fascists who preach death to the infidel on the street corners of major European cities? Even the NYT suspects there were some problems with the USSR dream. Perhaps. Never the less, the quest for a command economy is central to the economic logic of the New York Times. They can only dream of high taxes and bigger government. [7]

Brooks sums up with:

“This election will be asymmetric. Obama has to come up with a personal narrative voters can relate to. McCain needs to come up with a one-sentence description for why he represents a clean break and a compelling future. …Neither campaign has done that. I don’t know what they’re so happy about.”

We wonder if the McGovern, Dukakis, Mondale, Gore and Kerry campaigns produced “asymmetric” political contests. What personal narratives did McGovern and Kerry offer to us? How about the personal narrative we heard from Obama in Philadelphia?[8] How does this square with his sudden exit from a racist environment[9] that we thrived in for 20 years.? What can we derive from his personal narratives where denigrated white middle class voters and their guns and religion and pickups? Was Gore ‘fit’ to lead? Did his Marxism, or that of Kerry, affect the votes? Do the voters really think that we can provide a free community college education all of our citizens when 53% of blacks cannot finish high school?[10]

The Babbler babbles about emotional factors that are important to voters, but cannot be quantified without exit polls after the general election. The expected tautological droning on about ‘the issues’ is notably missing from this doomsday proclamation. Personalities now are more important to Brooks than tax policy. Overt racism by Obama and his angry black wife are not ‘fitness’ factors or ‘issues’ in this contest? What do we do about terrorists? Offer them voter status and pay reparations?

The final doom envisioned by Brooks is not described. The anxiety is his. Apparently he thinks Obama might lose the election. If he does, can Brooks blame Obama? And, for what? Unfitness?

At least Hillary and Bill are out of the way. (They think). Billary won 8 straight political contests. Were they ‘unfit?’

Brooks is frantic [anxious] and it shows.  Is he our modern Nostradamus?

The NYT Lectures on the 70s, Stagflation the Fear of Fear. Be Happy.

“Not long ago it seemed as if everyone watching the carnage in financial markets was drawing scary parallels with the 1930s.”

The opening line of our famous non-economist at the NYT. We thank Krugman for another example of propaganda using the reinforcement mechanism. This is intended a sop or palliative for  those who  heal the scary thoughts of  the mentally disnimble. “I am scared.” Is the political whine of the hopeless twit, and useful in leftist politics. Simple folk get rustled up and propelled by their fears and want their ‘government’ to rescue them from the evils of capitalism. Fear is a useful tool for  this.

“This time, however, Ben Breanne and his colleagues at the Federal Reserve did what their predecessors failed to do during the banking crisis of 1930-31: they acted forcefully to avert a collapse of the financial system.”[1] [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

Actually, if they had done nothing and let Bear Stearns go down, things might have worked out just fine. This is classic a ideological redaction exercise in histrionics: thinking backward from the far leftist precept of government control   of virtually everything. Anything that went astray in any society would and should have been prevented by the munificent government and all will be well. Such is the drug-induced pipe dream of big government and its wonders. Surprisingly, every time a big government works the leftist levers with a command economy went into the financial and social toilet. Isn’t that strange? And this newspaper thinks that Marxism and its sulfurous variants are so wonderful. They even praise Castro for his wonderful health care system. The USSR had a praiseworthy healthcare system too except party leaders preferred Switzerland or Sweden.  This is a standard introduction to a new piece of propaganda, the only apparent purpose of the little people who toil at the New York Times, the Walter Duranty Memorial Papers. [2] Marxists everywhere fearlessly sing his praises and admire his face as it beams down from the lobby at the New York Times building in New York City.

 Following the screed:

“You see, fears of a 1930s-style financial meltdown are apparently out; fears of 1970s-style stagflation are in. And the Fed stands accused of being soft on inflation.”

Ah! A shift in the flavor of fear! Not only was there a threat to our society from a financial collapse but now the Evil Specter of Inflation appears as the lasted Apparition of Doom. The Jimmy Carter era term of stagflation, something we will always associate with Peanut Jimmy (like the way we always couple Slick Willie with Monica Lewinsky) and his Rose Garden musings  with the druggie Amy and his undying love for Communists everywhere. Same Medusa, different head?

The Solemn Promise that Big Government Will Heal and Protect.

“So this seems like a good time to declare that the new conventional wisdom is all wrong. We’re not watching a rerun of that ’70s show — and the misguided belief that we are could do a lot of harm.

It’s true that the soaring prices of oil and other raw materials have led to public anguish over the rising cost of living. But this time around there’s no sign whatsoever of the wage-price spiral that, in the 1970s, turned a temporary shock from higher oil prices into a persistently high rate of inflation”

This is all very refreshing and we can now relax. Any normal economist might think that cost-push inflationary price rises in a basic energy transportation facet of our economy might raise the costs and hence prices of everything that moves or takes energy to make. But, the New York Times finds ways to ignore facts and established economic theories to suit their politics.

Krugman then diverges into an incoherent and illusory essay on wages from some obscure union contract in 1981, which is not germane here so I slipped it into the trash where it belongs. It is not worth reading.

“But as I said, this time around there’s no wage-price spiral in sight.”

The second time:

This is known as reinforcement in education and propaganda. The Chinese print the same glyphs twice on paper or on some object as in the example of the  double happiness jar where the characters  are repeated side by side. In a common misinformation menchanism, we must be led to believe that if the NYT spouts off some notion twice that it must be true. Be Happy Be Happy.

And for the third time:

“The bottom line is that while expensive gas and food are inflicting real harm on American families, they aren’t setting off a ’70s-type inflationary spiral. The only thing we have to fear on that front is inflation fear itself, which could lead to policies that make a bad economic situation worse.”

Thrice!!  We wonder if the word tautological applies to this lament.

“…the only thing we have to fear is fear itself."--FDR  [3]

Well, FDR sank our economy in socialism and the unemployment went from 26% down to 14% from 1933 to 1941, a long eleven years. 400,000 dead bodies resulted. Isn’t that nice? Krugman failed to reference this cliché. But, maybe they wrote the original script for FDR.

 Are the Times types so muddled and frustrated that they have to dig into ancient history to defend the fact that high fuel and other energy costs will cause high inflation? We wonder what the Times uses for reason and cost analysis in business and commerce. They could have offered the salient fact that if inflation goes double digit then our War on Terrorism debt will be paid off very inexpensively. Inflation is the remedy of spend thrifty governments.

Be Happy Be Happy and then  Be Happy

All we really have to fear is the mental midgets who make policy in our country will read and believe the New York Times.

Such a farce.

Obama Deserts His Religion, Church and Supporters. But, He needs the Votes Anyway.

In what is believed to be solely for political purposes, Barack Obama has dumped his church although he promised never to disown his former pastor or his church.[1] Times change when political prizes are on the horizon.

From his Philadelphia Speech, the one that brought strange lights and comforting sounds   and bubbles from the plumbing in Tim Russert’s colostomy tubes, we hear this:

The church contains in full the kindness and cruelty, the fierce intelligence and the shocking ignorance, the struggles and successes, the love and yes, the bitterness and bias that make up the black experience in America.  [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. “[2]

Notice the linkage here.

Obama’s speech went like this in the hope that he could ‘distance himself, ’ working the levers of the  usual political clichés designed for such occasions, from the radical black racists of the Black Liberation Theology movement.

Well, it seems you have now disowned your church Obama. The question is: do you still believe in what your church continues to say and in your narrow political and racist training of twenty years past? Michelle doesn’t sound too much different from Jeremiah Wright or Otis Moss or Michael Pfleger. She can do a bubba sermon and preach hate too.[3] Oh, yeah. We are not supposed to mention her racism and contempt for whites. She is off limits.

Obama said this in his Philadelphia Speech of Mar 18, 2008:

“In the white community, the path to a more perfect union means acknowledging that what ails the African-American community does not just exist in the minds of black people; that the legacy of discrimination - and current incidents of discrimination, while less overt than in the past - are real and must be addressed. Not just with words, but with deeds – by investing in our schools and our communities; by enforcing our civil rights laws and ensuring fairness in our criminal justice system; by providing this generation with ladders of opportunity that were unavailable for previous generations. It requires all Americans to realize that your dreams do not have to come at the expense of my dreams; that investing in the health, welfare, and education of black and brown and white children will ultimately help all of America prosper. [4]

This sounds inclusive and fair, but is it??

This is all music to the ears of those who prefer drugs, sloth, and sodomy and ignore education.  There is money on the drum for you. The message is that you must be ‘understood’ and we can help that understanding with loads of tax money from the whites.

The church, a place where Obama was taught ‘religion’ for 20 years, routinely has people like Rev. Michael Pfleger stand up and chant hate slogans from the pulpit at white America. [5] Here is some of his stuff:

“He thunders: "When Hillary was crying, and people said that was put on, I really don't believe it was put on. I really believe that she just always thought: 'This is mine! I'm Bill's wife, I'm white and this is mine! I just gotta get up and step into the plate.' And then out of nowhere came, 'Hey, I'm Barack Obama,' and she said: 'Oh, damn. Where did you come from? I'm white! I'm entitled! There's a black man stealing my show!' "

Then he theatrically feigns tears and says: "She wasn't the only one crying. There were a whole lot of white people crying."[6]

Does this violate the IRS rules for a church and political speeches?

A lot of white people are very upset over this kind of trash. The hoards of howling racists behind the Party of Democrats cannot be ignored as we witness the crass and tyrannical threats of many black leaders in Congress like Maxine Waters and her comments on oil c companies: [7]

“And guess what this member* would be all about? This member would be all about socializing — er, uh. [Pauses for several moments] …. would be about … [pause] … bsically … taking over, and the government running all of your companies.” [8]

What kind of applause would this rant get in Obama’s church today?

How about:

“All white people are racists.“[9]-University of Delaware.

What about the comment about “…exterminate white people off the face of the planet” by Kamau Kambon [10]

This is pretty sick stuff, the kind of politics we have always heard from Minister Farrakhan. [11] But, this is also the stock and trade of racist commerce in the radical black churches that preach hate and blame whites for every conceivable inconvenience in their lives. Let us not forget that, like the Hitler and Lenin speeches, this kind of thing gets votes.  Michele Obama and Reverends Pfleger and Wright know how to get those votes. They play the race card.

 The salient question to ask now is: Will Obama really reject this kind of racism or will he just mumble and ‘distance’ himself from those who support him only because of his skin color. Any reasonable person would wonder how much 20 years of indoctrination affects the average person and we must now forget that he need the votes of the black racists much more now that he showed his contempt for white middle-class voters in other states with his offhand remarks about their guns and religions.  The Chinese and Vietnamese ‘reeducation camps’ only required a few years to reverse the options, views, fears and obtuse notions of some of their citizens about communism.

Obama has misrepresented himself if he thinks we can still believe that he represents ‘change’ in American. All he is doing is giving a chance for his low-class racist supporters to have more change in their pockets.

This guy is a phony and the Party of Democrats may have just McGovernized themselves again.  The ‘typical white person’ might be upset by some or all of this.
