SUBTITLE: "OR, HOW TO FEED ON GREED AS OTHERS STARVE."
One soma satirist's say our society has become a nation onDo It Unto To Others,Before TheyDo It Unto to You!"
.. The corporate and professional harvest is plentiful, but few there are who reap “THE BIG PROFITS”! Why should you be the Person getting the crumbs, while the “Big Boys” carve up the pie for themselves? “POWER” is “THE PIE”! Take the pie for yourself, and leave them the crumbs! For the Person with the power always feeds first, and devours not “MORE” but “THE MOST”! Thus is the essence of “GREED”! To the Person, “Greed is good!”. These reckless, irresponsible, arrogant and GREEDY tax giveaways are; and, we never use SUCH TERMINOLOGY; unless, absolutely necessary: ANTI-AMERICAN, UN-PATRIOTIC, ANTI-FAMILY!!! MONEY THERE ARE NO RULES!!! THE GUYWHO MAKES THE RULES.RULES!!! and the GUY WITH THE MONEY M AKES THE RULES!hen people live by a codealways, make sure you” GET YOURS"!!! IfThe only "GOOD" Person. is a "RICH" Person!!! unemployed become blamed for all of society's problems. That the property is their faults because they are lazy and verify and therefore deserve to be treated as losers and failures;But personsPerson "success" is scored by how much money you earn, not by achievements!or moral character;“How ToGain Career SuccessAt Everyone Else’s Expense!” when in actuality some stage match grain or the lusting after money is good, EVIL. even if the game is at the expense of other people, that while of money; "MONEY IS POWER!" It's the answer to all life s problems. always "AMASSES ENORMOUS WEALTH"! For how much treasure one accumulates decides how much "power" one has. that’s how they keep score. Knowledge is not power--------MONEY is.which is called success;Money and power follow money and power! The more you have, the more you get! If you have "nothing", you get "nothing""GOOD" by being "CHARITABLE" and "GENEROUS"! Let me explain. Always make substantial contributions to church and charities! Besides, the contributions are good tax write offs! The more tax write-offs, the less total tax liability you pay. You win, again, because you're left with more money in the bank! The people no longer do go in for the sake of good bug act upon a hidden agenda or expect something in return;THE POWER OF BELIEFcodebecomes “successful and powerful” only if people believe he’s “successful and powerful”. Money and status follow “believed” success and power! When did you ever see a bank lend money to a bum? When did a bank ever refuse a loan to a Person who drove up in a chauffeured limousine? Remember... You’re perceived by others through “the image” you project to them.

The Personisms, . perhaps may even supply probable insight into
the causation of the CORPORATE FINANCIAL SCANDALS. Conceivably, these compilation of “attitudes” or “non-beliefs” may even signify why our culture appears escalating out of control descending into pervasive corruption. Exposing our sinister face to
illumination may bring our ENLIGHTENMENT.

Get you pastor to print your contribution in the weekly church bulletin. Better yet, have him present you with a brass plaque affixed forever in a place of prominence within the church.
The Person who hungers and thirsts after righteousness and social justice eventually assassinates his own “SUCCESS”! He shoots himself in the foot. He becomes his own worst enemy because he plays the “unpopular”, losing game! always “SHREWD AND NONCOMMITTAL”! He plays his cards” close to his vest”.Always keep your own counsel while you plot your hidden agenda! Be secretive. Never let people know what you’re “really” thinking!
. “ Shrewdness”Never take them” at their word”! means manipulating the other guy to declare his position and strategy. This gives you the opportunity to prepare your defenses using your enemy’s strategy against him. Constantly ask them well designed, crafty and subtle questions. Analyze their responses to determine the “real” truth. Watch their “body language”! It might “give them away”. Always “pick their brains” for information! Pretend to show an interest in what they’re doing. Get them to brag about their accomplishments, their methods of operation, and ideas. For by stealing another Person’s ideas you can escalate your career. You can take all the credit for yourself.
marriage is no longer a “personal relationship”, but rather a legal, social contract! In effect, it destroys private property rights creating “community property rights”! This can really cost you. If you don’t believe it, just have a conversation with a re cent divorcee’ regarding his property settlement. On the other hand, ”” with anyone except yourself! In other words, never make a total, personal, extended “commitment” to anyone.52% of marriages end in divorce;If you’re that “lonely”, be smart; take a mistress, or a part-time boyfriend.
there’s no “private property rights” in an idea. Under copyright laws. the .thinker or writer only owns “the use” of the words, not the ideas themselves s. Knowledge is power! A Person who’s above “intellectual larceny” ,for ethical reasons, remains ignorant, powerless and, yes, poor! For, in the ultra competitive Person arena, it’ s either “eat, or be eaten”! “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen”... because you might have your goose cooked! For the Yuppie who refuses to “play the game” by the rules of the gutter ends up in the guttermation is the name of the game!deals in “realities”, not lofty principles.
Take everything they say “with a grain of salt”. Ask yourself these questions:” What does this guy ‘really’ mean?”, “What’s this guy’s game?”, “What’s he up to?”, “Who’s he trying .to kid?”, “Does this sound too good to be true?”, “Where’ s the downside?”, “How’s this going to affect me?”. You get the picture. For the Person who is deceived is soon defeated!
Always “PLAY DUMB AND NAIVE” around your fellow Persons. Pre tend you don’t know “The Score”.
“PERSONAL HYPOCRISY
” that a crafty Person can conquer his fellow Persons, and others! Hypocrisy’s gotten a “bad rap” through the centuries FROM!!! the Do-Gooders. But, the word “hypocrite” comes FROM!!! the Greek simply meaning “actor”. Besides, didn’t Shakespeare say, in effect, “The world’s a stage, and all who walk upon it but’ actors’ . “ . The truth is: “Everybody’s a hypocrite!”. Who are people trying to kid ... God? Everybody’s acting; trying to sell “their version” of the truth. The truth, of course, which benefits them! Never, but never, tell “THE WHOLE TRUTH”! For he who tells the partial --truth is stuck with defending it! For the Person, that’s a no win situation. People expect you to “support” the things you say you believe. only tell half-truths! When public officials cynical tell people exactly what they want to hear. Play on their prejudices, preconceived notions, and subjective opinions. You know, like the politicians do. How else can you manipulate people to act against their best interestsfear mongering the paranoia mongering; when people consider remember. “PERSONAL IMAGE“impresses” people w” i“imperative” tos more important than silly things like “character and substance”;!
“Life” is “show biz”! The more show, the more business. Why do you think Lee Iacocca does his own TV commercials? T
always the author of his own script! If you’re acting out a script some other Person wrote, you’re finished. For you have lost control You’re no longer “directing” the play, you’re taking instructions. No Person ever became a great leader by being a dedicated follower!; the battleground
Always be seen socializing with “THE ELITE” ( You know who they are: “THE MOVERS and SHAKERS” the people in “THE ESTABLISHMENT”
PWhen the old old Scranton, Pa. “Coal town Proverb”, “The coal company gets the coal and the profits, while the miners get the shaft!”
Make minimum wage minimum wage make;
“Everybody loves a winner.” But, nobody, except may be a mother, loves a loser. “Winning is not the only thing, it’s everything!” Show me a Person who’s a happy loser,;
“EMOTIONALLY INVOLVED Emotional entanglements cause Persons to “lose One BobPerson, “love” means only one thing “unilateral sexual gratification”. ;
If you must “lust”, then “lust after money”. F“ “the highest moral values”. For, it is a Person given, People don t give a damn about another’s ethics, but the equate ‘the lack of morals’ with ‘sex’.” And, “sex”, to the general population, is a “SIN”! Nobody likes a sinner. The Person who’s considered a sinner never succeeds. or, you see, lusting after the accumulation of wealth is considered “a virtue”. Think about it?

GREEDISM Profiteer Or Profit Gouging Already Crime Careerism Person Person
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE PersonISM-CAREERISM
VERY IMPORTANT:
If you must marry, always marry a fellow Person! Never marry beneath your station in life. Make sure your intended spouse has equal (or hopefully better) education, professional status, and “INCOME” as compared to yours!!! The artful Person never” gets snookered” into supporting anyone else. Remember... To a successful Person, life is not a two-way street, but rather a one-way street with traffic going only in his direction! If your foolishly going to walk the perilous road of marriage, you might as well” use it” to your best advantage. Make sure it enhances your financial position costing as little as possible!
Get your “intended” to pay half the wedding costs. If they want to get married that bad, they deserve to” pay”!
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have! = After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. When the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments when your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
: Never have “CHILDREN” unless your spouse “absolutely insists” upon it! !!If you have children, your spouse won’t have time “to spoil” you! Besides, raising children these’ days costs “BIG MONEY”. It takes two Person incomes to maintain a married Person lifestyle. Pregnancy will take your wife out of the job market leaving you without her income! “Three” can’t live as cheaply as two. Furthermore, children interfere with a Person’s career and social life. They steal your time, and “Time is money!”.
If you must have children, then have as few as possible like only one! The more children, the more the cost. The more the cost, the more your losses in investment income.
Always breed your children to be “Person Puppies”. A” Person Puppies” is a kid with your exact set of values. In other words, make sure the kid knows “the value of a buck”. You know, things like: “keeping two sets of books”, capital gains, accelerated depreciation, “padding expense accounts”, “setting up dummy corporations”, “how to file premature bankruptcy to shaft creditors”, “tax shelters”, etc.. You get the picture.
Constantly remind the kid of all the financial and career sacrifices you’re making on his behalf. In other words, put” a Person guilt trip” on him! Make the kid feel he “owes” you something in return. This way, when your re tired, the kid will feel obligated reimbursing you with some of his in come. It’s the only Person way to “break even”. This may seem a little crass. But remember, kids always break your heart. They never appreciate all you did for them. They never do what you want them to do. Instead, they always do what’s best for themselves!
Always push the chicks FROM!!! the nest as soon as possible! The sooner they learn to fly on their own, the more you’ll save!
If your kid telephones home “collect” crying because he or she was fired, asking to come home ”for a while” then it’s time to get alarmed’ They’re telling you they want to feed at your trough, once again, without paying the tab. Be sympathetic, but don’t be fooled. Make up some convincing excuse why they can’t come home. You know, like = “Your room in the basement was flooded during the last storm”, or “We discovered radon gas is leaking into our house FROM!!!
below the Earth”, or “Sorry, but we have no room. We had a fire and we’re remodeling.”. You get the picture. Don’t feel guilty about refusing the kid. Hey, who are we kidding? This is America! Everybody’s on their own. A Person can’t care for “NUMBER ONE”, if he’s caring for everyone else! Besides, if you were old and broke, you don’t think your kid would take you in his home and support you? It would be the old nursing home, or a one room, impoverished dungeon in Miami Beach. Out of sight is out of mind! Enough said.
The ingenious Person always “CRIES POOR”! Never let anyone, especially. our spouse and children, know how much money you have; i.e.; your true financial picture!!! It’s simple. If people think you have money, they’ll start hounding you. They’ll expect you to “give” them some. On the other hand, if people think you’re “POOR”, they won’t want to be bothered with you’WARNING! Always hide your monthly bank statements!
Ebenezer Scrooge had the right attitude, and should be your role model. That is, until he went “insane”, and “sold out” to the Do-Gooders. Remember ... The Christmas spirit is not for the mature Person! It’s for losers, failures and idiots who want to “feel better” because they “screwed up” their lives. Never give Christmas gifts except to your “business associates” who will help you profit in the year to come. The smart Person always knows “where his bread is buttered”. For, in the Person household, people eat his butter. But, in business, his Person “friends” the cr¨me de la cr¨me give him butter to consume.
Never Forget Person marriage is what you make it! work to your advantage! Make it
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have!
= After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. When the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments when your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
Person RULES HOW TO BE VICTORIOUS IN CORPORATE, PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL, POLITICS! AND OTHER CAREERS LIFE IS WARFARE!
The victor is never the vanquished! For it is by “victimizing” others the Person prevents the vanquishing of his career success!
Appearances are everything! Always present a neat, clean, well groomed, fashionable company appearance! “Personal image” and” form” reign supreme in Persondom Remember... Packaging and marketing are always more important than the product inside!
A Person must maintain high, personal sanitation. Body odor, especially bad breath, is “the stench of failure”! It destroys “personal image”, and can ruin career success. In this area, follow all TV commercial instructions to the letter.
Always keep your hair length within company standards. Long hair is disastrous. Becoming known as “The Company Hippie” is career suicide. The Hippies went out of style in the’ s. These are the ‘ s “The Age Of The Persons”, not “The Age Of Aquarius”. Besides, in Persondom, there’s no place for all that “peace love and brotherhood” nonsense. It’s the marketplace principles which count, not high-sounding, utopian ideals. The word “Utopia” is the Latin word for “Nowhere”. That’s where Persons end up, if they believe Hippie philosophy
Be as pretty or handsome as you can. If necessary, use plastic surgery. For it’s life’s “pretty people” who get to play all the starring roles. Ugly people are just extras in life’s “B Movies”. Never forget the Hebrew sage’s words, “Vanity, vanity, all’s vanity!”.
Always appear healthy, eager, energetic, even athletic! Never let company officials think you’re a potential “health risk”. No company ever promotes sick people. They “weed them out”! The last thing they want is someone “actually using” the medical benefits plan. Besides,” sickness” means” absenteeism”, and that costs the company “MONEY”! If they think you’re really “sick”, you’ll be absent forever because you won’t have a job! Keep any serious disease you might have a secret.
Never get “FAT’” It’s bad for your company image, and makes you a potential health risk. Obesity leads to high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes. Starve yourself, if necessary, but remain slim and trim “full of vig and vim”. Besides, you know what Person society thinks regarding “fat people”.
Never, but never, smoke at work! Companies now consider smoking an “addictive behavior”. Who knows, they might schedule you for “drug testing”. Your career might become the victim of the .test’s high margin for error. Besides, Person antismoker may soon start persecuting Person smokers as a means of advancing their careers. Beware of how much coffee you drink at work. Caffeine consumption may soon be considered “addictive behavior” als
Never be seen drinking alcohol by your fellow Persons. They’ pass rumors insinuating you’re “a drunk”. However, it’s all right to have a glass of wine at the Company Christmas Party. That’s expected. However, never yawn at work. They might think you’re hung over!
:A handy of thumb is this. Always do what the company “expects”, or you will soon become “suspected” by company officials. Remember... The company operates for its benefit, not yours! Once they feel you’re of no further value to them, you’re finished.
IMPORTANT: Always be a good company “CORPOID”! A “corpoid” is a company servant who’s willing to do “anything” to advance his career. He is obedient to his superiors satisfying their every whim. A ”corpoid” is an accomplished Person who unobtrusively informs his betters that his personal ethics will never interfere with the achievement of “corporate policy”. For the Person with scruples never enters “Corporate Paradise”. He’s the guy who never gets his personalized key to” The Executives’ Washroom”!
:Remember... A smart Person never gets caught committing White Collar Crime. However, Ivan Boesky has proven, beyond any doubt, that white collar crime does pay. The secret is in the numbers. It’s been estimated Boesky earned between $ and $ million. He paid a fine of $ million to the government, and got three years in a minimum security” prison”. With time off for good behavior, he could be paroled in one year. When he gets out, he’ll be worth between $ and $ million. Not a bad deal! It’s almost like the government paid him for turning state’s evidence. Never forget the Boesky/Person axiom, “The more you steal, the less your sentence will bet”. For we have two justice systems in America: one for Persons, an done for everyone else. If you don’t believe it, watch what happens when some “lower income group” guy knocks over his local bank for a couple thou’. It’s years maximum security with very little chance of parole. For, you see , “massive crime at the end of a pen” is not equal to” minimal crime at the point of a gun”. So, if you’re going to steal, steal big!
AM
Never, but never, be “DIFFERENT”! Always “conform” and “fit in” with the rest of the company’s Persons. Remember... The Elephant Man was different ... look how people treated him? In Persondom, different people are treated differently; that is, “badly”! Enough said.
. Always be “PUNCTUAL”; especially at company meetings! For the early Person bird gets the worm while the late Person bird runs into snakes basking in the corporate sun!
. Always be “PREPARED”! The Person who doesn’t do his homework ends up wearing the company dunce cap. If you don’t know what’s going on, then fake it. Smile, and agree with everything that is said. But, never ask any questions. That will only demonstrate your ignorance Persondom, Ignorance is not bliss, it’s a one-way ticket to unhappiness the unemployment line.
. Never show disinterest in anything your Person superiors say no matter how stupid or incompetent I You need their support to climb up the corporate ladder of success. If you don’t pretend to admire them, they won’t admire you. Let them know you painstakingly researched all their “excellent” proposals and ideas. Always lavishly (or slavishly) compliment them after their presentations. For the praise you give today is the praise you’ll receive tomorrow.
Be eternally vigilant regarding your company statements and conversations! or what you say could come back to haunt you. Silence, not discretion, is the better part of valor. For silence, not words, is golden. It can avoid many hassles. . For, you see, by your Person words you are acquitted, but also by your words you can be condemned! To put it another way, always speak vaguely and ambiguously. So, if your fellow Persons attack you later, you can defend yourself as being” misunderstood” because of their inherent lack of intelligence and competence. Get it? It’s not your fault that you’re a genius, and they’re so stupid.
If someone asks you a question you don’t want to answer, then drowned them in a sea of words and non sequiturs! They’ll become so bored with your nonsense, they’ll forget what they asked. Remember... Never answer questions which divulge your true position on important issues!
(See: ) AM
Never, but never, become a
“COMPANY HERO”! Why? Because ”pioneers and heroes get all the arrows”! The guys cowardly hiding out behind the fortress walls always have a better chance of survival. Career. success is based on survival, not valor. Besides, everybody wants a title shot at the Champ. Company heroes are constantly under pressure to outperform their last accomplishment. They make the tragic mistake known as “The Person Treadmill”. They have to keep walking faster just to keep up! For, you see, the mob loves its heroes, but immediately turns against them if they don’t constantly perform according to raised, higher expectations. In other words, today’s hero can quickly become tomorrow’s bum. If you don’t believe it, just ask a former sports hero. For, it’s Person human nature to say, “Hey, it’s not what you did yesterday, but what’re ya’ gonna’ do for me today?”. As you can see, topping yesterday’s accomplishments is an impossible, losing game. It’s better to become just as incompetent as your fellow Persons until your” stab at power” comes. Remember... A moment of “corporate glory” does not guarantee Person job security! Yes, the bright, falling meteorite’s breathtakingly beautiful. However, its soon burns itself out, and is “gone forever”!
ON THE OTHER HAND,
never become a company “WALLFLOWER”! Timid and shy people never succeed. Instead, make sure you’re “seen, known, respected and admired” by all the company elite. Be “noticed”, but never make “a spectacle” of yourself. The” soft sell” is always better than the “hard sell” in Person self promotion technique. Pretend to have “an air of humility” about you. For no. one likes the arrogant, the cocky, the conceited. However, remember, the truly humble will never become the corporate exalted!
At the Company Christmas Party, try to get a seat near the head table. This will give you the best opportunity to socialize with the company Greats. If you want to become a Person Great, you must be seen with the Greats. Greatness has a way of rubbing off when one rubs shoulders with the Greats.
The talented Person strives to become a “CORPORATE MESSIAH”! A “corporate messiah” is a Person who has convinced everyone he has innate leadership skills. He’s full of corporate wisdom constantly motivating and “inspiring” his fellow Persons. In short, he has that magical quality... chrismal Corporate messiahs don’t do much, except talk, but they’re the first to be kicked up stairs. Why? Because anyone who can influence others to produce “MORE”, at the same cost, is of great value to the company.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The accomplished Person never admits he made a “COMPANY MISTAKE”! Never be the one left “taking the heat”! Always but always, find a way to blame mistakes on someone else!! Once you’ admit responsibility, they’ll punish the hell out of you. For the guy who makes the mistakes S the guy who’s fired. Remember? Richard Nixon admitted he made a mistake ... look what happened to him? Of course, he meant he made “the mistake of getting caught”. Nevertheless, a mistake is a mistake no matter the personal intent of the incompetent. For in Persondom there is no forgiveness. If you want forgiveness, make a good confession of your sins in church. But, at work, never admit you made a mistake. That’s considered first degree murder to career advancement.
. Never Forget... The Person sharks are constantly circling in the water, smelling for blood, just waiting to move in for the kill. Who, in his right mind, would give them an opportunity to have a “feeding frenzy”? It’s all a matter of Person self-preservation. The cunning Person is never the victim, he’s the victor
This next concept sounds a little indelicate, but it’s true. The only way to reach the pinnacle of corporate and professional success (i.e., “The Person Mountain Top”) is on the corpses of one’s fellow Persons! This sounds cruel and uncaring, but that’s life in the harsh realities of Persondom. Everything has a price which must be paid, even success! For it’s survival of the fittest. To the victor go the spoils! The Person who doesn’t “go for the jugular” loses in cutthroat competition.
If you’re caught “red-handed” making a mistake, always use the defenses of “PSYCHOLOGY AND MIND GAMES”! First, pretend to assume full responsibility for your actions. Then, sincerely but subtly, “MAKE EXCUSES”! Blame the whole thing on incompetent advice you received FROM!!!
Persons your boss hates. For it is by accusing others of incompetence, claiming innocence and involuntary ignorance, that one creates confusion shifting the blame to others. You know, like Ronald Reagan does all the time?
Remember! The best defense is a good offense! Putting others on the defensive forces them, not you, “to defend their actions”. They become intimidated and overwhelmed because they fear losing their jobs. Better them than you!
If that doesn’t work, then abandon your dignity and self-respect. Throw yourself on your boss s mercy; beg his forgiveness, grovel at his feet, play on his sympathies and sense of compassion. Also subtly remind him that your mistake might make him look bad, too. After all, he’s the one who hired you. He could be considered vicariously responsible. Such subtle blackmail is the best way to gain his conspiratorial complicity in a “cover-up”. Remember...It’s not who “makes the mistake” which is important, but rather who’ she “responsible” !
The best way to avoid “MISTAKES AND CRITICISM” is to do “NOTHING”! Never, but never, propose an original idea assume major responsibility, or make an important decision!!! You mightbe “wrong” or make a “mistake”. Let your fellow Persons, the overly ambitious “Glory Boys”, take all the risks. When they fail, you might be the only one left to promote
Remember...” Job security” is not accomplished by taking risks. Leave the risks to the entrepreneur types. Persons are businessmen, not “real capitalists”. The smart Person learns to feed off “created wealth”, not actually assuming the risks of creating “new wealth”. Besides, why should you be the one clinging to a life preserver in heavy corporate seas? So, keep your head out of the clouds, your feet on the ground, and your body behind your desk in your office. If you do nothing, then nothing can be blamed on you!
On the other hand, never be humble when there is a “CORPORATE SUCCESS”! Make sure you get your share of the credit, and thus “MORE”! For. the meek shall inherit: “career stagnation”, maybe demotion the menial tasks, and maybe the assembly line. “Lord, Have Mercy!”
Never take sides in a “COMPANY CONTROVERSY”! Always play both sides against the middle befriending each secretly! So , when one side wins, they’ll reward your loyalty. There is
If you’re forced to take sides, always support the prevailing, “majority” viewpoint! That is, to say, the obvious winners. No corporation or professional group ever fired a majority of its employees.
Never support an obvious loser even if he’s morally right and logically correct! You can’t spend ethics, righteousness and competence. For, it is who wins that counts, not who was right. Winning is the only line to take because it is the bottom line.
Never try to be “a peacemaker” in a company dispute! Peacemakers get caught in the conflict’s crossfire. You could become” the common enemy”. Both sides will merely blame you for trying to be helpful. Instead, let the combatants fight it out “to the death”. Later, you can move in and steal the booty... if you know what I mean? Never Forget . Self-preservation is the best self promotion.power to be found in duplicity.
And you preserve yourself by sacrificing others.
IMPORTANT: If another Company Person’s career is on the” DECLINE”, avoid him like “the plague”! To be seen in his presence, speaking with him, is the corporate “Kiss of Death”. Remember... Guilt by association is still guilt! The Guilty are soon prosecuted, convicted and punished.
When the ship’s sinking, the smart rats the first to “jump ship” finding another floating object which sustains preservation. Never, but never, let anyone take you down with them. Never hesitate to betray, deny and condemn a former “friend” wit conviction. For the Person who does not “cut his losses” at someone else’s expense, soon becomes the loser.
Never forget these paraphrased words of John Mitchell, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”... right out the door leaving the other guy to take the heat! To put it another way, always leave the’ other guy holding the bag. Sharp Person wants to be the snake charmer, not the snake charmer’s assistant. You know, the guy who’s responsible for disposing of the( not) snakes in the bag. Think about it? Who went to jail in Watergate? Was it Nixon, or Haldeman and Erlichman?
On the other hand, always cultivate the “friendship” of “RISING Person STARS”! You know, fellow corpoids who are escalating up the ladder of success. By hitching your wagon to theirs, you’ll be dragged progressively upwards. If you’re seen with winners, people will think you’re a winner, too. It’s all a matter of “common sense”. Besides, if you’re crafty enough, one day, you might be able to steal some of their limelight for yourself.
WARNING: Always be cautious when picking your Corporate Person “friends”! If some company employee starts talking about “protecting the public interest”, or “doing the right thing”, avoid him like” The Bubonic Plague”! He’s guarantied immediate career decline, and ultimate failure! One day soon, he’ll be taking his meals at the nearest soup kitchen, not The Plaza Hotel. Besides, he’s probably a liberal, an environmentalist, a unionist, or a“pinko”.
Never Forget ...Anyone who’s not a conservative or a Republican is “suspect”! Joe McCarthy proved that in the ‘ s. Never be the guy who’s “patriotism is questioned”.
To protect your image, just to be safe, never register as a “DEMOCRAT”! Who knows when the next witch hunt will begin? Besides, being a “democrat” is corporate suicide! Persondom not interested in by the man the people but rather the of the man .by the few. “The Few”! of course, meaning “The Persons”! One. more thing, never, under any circumstances, be heard speaking adoringly about Jane Fonda. That guaranties “corporate capital punishment” !
THE DOCTRINE OF SELF-PRESERVATION:
If another Person “dares” to disagree with your opinions at a company meeting, smile... pretend to tolerate his viewpoint ... then make immediate, secret plans to destroy him. For, he or she is “the enemy”! An “enemy” is anyone who makes a Person “look bad”, or stands in the way his “SUCCESS”! A Person “friend” does not publicly challenge your opinions. Furthermore, if a Person is not your “friend”, you must automatically assume he’s your” enemy” . There’s no middle of the road in Persondom. They’re either for ya’ ,or against ya’!
If a group of Company Persons opposes you, the best strategy is” to divide them, and thereby conquer them”! Remember... People will do unspeakable evil in a group they would never do individually. But how does one “divide” them? Basically, by turning them against one another through any “pragmatic” means at hand! Once they’re alienated FROM!!! one another, their sense of “common purpose” is destroyed. Their spirit of joint ventured success, at your expense, vanishes making them no longer a threat. Then, they are at your mercy. Later, you can destroy them one by one at the appropriate time. For house divided can not long stand and endure! Since they chose to “hang around” in unison against you, they deserve to “hang separately”! This may sound a little evil, but we’re talkin’ career survival, preservation and success, here. PersonISM is no philosophy for the fainthearted, the squeamish, the indecisive, or the Do-Gooders. ( Self-preservation is best accomplished by destroying one’s Person enemies!)
HOW TO EXTERMINATE A Person ENEMY: Never, but never, hesitate to use “malicious character assassination”, unfounded rumors, and vicious gossip to eradicate a Person enemy! Preferably of a sexual nature. For ridicule is the best method of destroying an enemy’s reputation. Once people are laughing and snickering behind a Person’s back, they’ll never take him seriously again. He’s history no longer a serious threat
Never attack a Person enemy with a frontal assault! That will only create “sympathy” among his” friends”. Remember what happened to Jerry Falwell when he tried to steal PTL FROM!!! Jim Bakker with overt, personalized attacks??? They both lost! Instead, always use covert” guerrilla tactics”! Subtly bide your time... then, stab your enemy in the back when he least expects it, or is not looking. Start by mildly Criticizing his “minor” faults, failings and weaknesses. Infer your criticism is “well intentioned” , sincere concern for the company’s future, and your enemy’s career success. In other words, you’re not being malicious, you’re doing it” for his own good”. That’ll get the ball rolling the rumor mill turning.
Next, quietly start passing “filthy information” regarding the enemy’s “PERSONAL LIFE”. Swearing your coworkers to “confidentiality” guaranties the gossip will leak out immediately! Rumormongers love “confidential information”.
Annihilate your Person enemy’s financial stability and security That’ll really ravage him. For there is nothing a Person hates more than losing his or her money. Accomplish this any way possible. Here’s one suggestion. Phone in $ , . of contribution pledges to the TV evangelist... all in your enemy’s name! Lucky him! For, if a Person is being sued by others he’ll have less time and stamina “to do war” with you.
NOTE: Yes, all this might sound a little devious the product of a warped mentality but. who ever said Person life, warfare and politics was fair? Besides, it's a Person axiom, if you don’t exterminate your Person enemies, they’ll exterminate you!!! Enough said.
“Always be gracious victory over a Person enemy! For an enemy once burned will be twice shy”. He’ll think twice before opposing you again. Nevertheless, no one likes being a loser. Once an enemy ways an enemy You don’t think the Japanese and Germans have lovingly forgotten ;their defeat after; World War II
. There is a great PR advantage or the victorious Person who’s reputed as “a forgiver of his enemies”. People love people who love their enemy. People love forgivers with “a soft spot”, and “a heart of gold”. However, people do not love vicious retribution. So, do not hesitate, publicly forgive your Person enemy. Besides, you can always “get him” later when his guard is down. Now, for the “real Person truths” ...
The prudent Person never forgives those who hate him! There has never been a defeated Person who has been a good loser. A Person enemy will always try to get his revenge later. But, how does one prevent this?
Always, but always, “kick your enemy when he’s down for the count”! In other words, you must destroy him when he’s most vulnerable! If he has the opportunity to stand up and recuperate, he’ll soon be kicking you in revenge. Sympathy and compassion in Persondom breeds hostility and job term nation. Hey, we’re talkin” ’war” here, not the etiquette at the Ladies’ Ice Cream Social.
Show no mercy! For, the Person who shows no mercy never has to ask for mercy! Treat your enemy the way you know he’d treat you... if he had the chance. Remember... It is the angry, unforgiving, and ruthless rogue elephant who’s always victorious not “the little mouse that roared”! A Person who fears trampling on others will, one day, be trampled upon. You don’t think ancient Persons like Julius Caesar, Alexander The Great, and Genghis Khan conquered the world by being “nice guys”, do you??? How much gold did Montezuma have after Cortez conquered the Aztecs? The Laws Of PersonISM are historical fact. One either plays by them, or one loses!
Always make sure your fellow Persons know you got your “REVENGE”! For Persons only fear those who are like them. They’ll never challenge you, once they know you “give no quarter” “take no prisoners”. The Person who does not retaliate through revenge soon becomes the victim of other Persons. For weakness and “the lack of vindictiveness” demonstrates “vulnerability” which only breeds another Person’s contempt. In Persondom, compassion is considered “unmanly”! It’s not macho! A male or female Person without machismo is considered a wimp. And, wimps never get to be “Top Dog”.
Forget everything you learned in Sunday school! A Person must deal with the brutal realities of the success game. Life is “an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth”. If you don’t punish your enemy, you’ll end up blindsided and toothless. Why do you think the Mafia invented the concept of the vendetta? Because a Person who does not get his revenge is “without honor”! The world belongs to the ruthless, not the toothless To put it another way, he who is not callous will be victimized by the callous.
THE SECRET TO EVENTUAL SUCCESS AND POWER
Sucking-up and kissing-A.. of the powerful. It all begins with your “BOSS”! The Person who does what his boss does will, one day, become the boss. First, however, it is imperative a Person gets his boss" on his side”. For, the Person whose boss does not” sing his praises” never achieves SUCCESS AND POWER!! In other words, if the boss doesn’t like ya ’, the Board of Directors won’t either! Always stroke you boss’s ! Never miss a chance to be a sycophant: agree with his opinions in all things ... flatter and compliment him until it turns your stomach ... constantly remind him of his great intelligence ... laugh hysterically at all his jokes (no matter how stupid) ... tell. him he’s your mentor and guru, etc. I Like the people he likes, and hate the people he hates! In other words, be like. him in every way possible. You get the picture. Always ingratiate yourself with the boss’s wife! If you can’t, you .better, start looking for a new job. For, Hell hath no fury like a Person boss s wife who hates his underling! He might the office, but a Person wife who’s worth her salt rules his life ever miss a chance to compliment her beauty; especially her clothing and hair style. Oh, yes, always remember the birthday cards and the. Christmas presents. They’ll say, “Oh, you shouldn’t have ...”, but It's expected for all the boss is doing for your career.
HOW TO STEAL POWER FOR YOURSELF: First, never let people know you desire” POWER”! Make them believe “you just want to do your job”. In other words, you’re so busy with “business” you don’t have time for company “politics”. This will buy you time to prepare for the most opportune moment your “power grab” :Never show your cards until you have the winning hand. For example, at the annual stockholders’ meeting, never lead or participate in a corporate rebellion or takeover. That is, unless you’re positive you have the votes and proxies to “WIN”! For everybody hates a revolutionary who loses. However , if you have the votes, don’t hesitate. He who hesitates is lost. Strike while the iron’s hot. Let nothing stand in your way. If necessary, be brutal. Because no one relinquishes power happily. In the end, it has to be taken FROM!!! them. Never Forget... “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely”; except in your case, of course. Never get sentimental during or after power grab! Don’t let your old bosses and Person “friends” talk you out of it. Destroy anyone who stands in your way! Everybody’s expendable! Besides, the Person success struggle is difficult enough. You can’t afford to carry “dead weight” up the mountain top. Everyone who’s no longer of pragmatic value must” go”! Never Forget.” Many Persons are called, but few are chosen! The path to corporate and professional success is wide, but the door to the Board Room is narrow; and few there are who are seated within!!! On the other hand, the path to downward mobility: demotion, early retirement, and unemployment is even wider. The road is strewn with the bodies of former, noN- aggressive Person
Remember.
Once you “grab” power, never forget this maxim, “YOU EITHER USE IT (POWER), OR YOU LOSE IT!”! Never hesitate to intimidate your lesser! For it is by “meanness and fear” that the powerful Person maintains his “power”. Remember .. The company’s just packed with ambitious Persons like you. They can’t wait for their “shot” at you: to topple you FROM!!! “the mountain top of success”, to “steal your job”, to “grab power for themselves”. Always maintain a high state of “paranoia”! Trust no one! Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing! For, not everyone who smiles at you is your “friend”. Besides, the disheartening truth is, the man on top has no “friends”! Remember... The problem with “being on top” is that the only place left to go is “damn”! Think about it? “Down” means “losing your job, power and success”. If there’s no job, there’s no money. If there’s no money, there’s no power and status: no BMW and Mercedes SL, no company limo, no house in the country, no exclusive country club memberships, no “The Good Life”! Worse yet, if you get fired, you might have to get “a real job” that is; actually “work” like the masses do. Saints Preserve Us! So, always maintain “power” at any cost by any means Be especially wary of Persons with Harvard and Yale MBA degrees! To them, MBA does not mean “Master In Business Administration:’, but rather “Mean Business Advocate”! They’re the most dangerous Persons of all. . .Because they’re probably the kids of the “old money rich families n America. They’ve been playing and winning the Person’s game for hundreds of years. If you’re not careful they’ll. forewarned is forearmed..’
IMPORTANT: If you become “insecure”, indecisive, and plagued with doubt, do not worry, there is a solution. Follow this one simple rule, and you’ll never fail in Persondom. Ask yourself, “What would Richard Nixon, Nero, Judas, J.R. Ewing, Alexis Carrington, or Adolph Hitler do under these circumstances?”. Then, without hesitation, “do it”! Without question, this guaranties future Person success and power. MOST IMPORTANT: Never forget the essence of Person philosophy!” It ‘s every man for himself! It’s a jungle out there! It’s a dog-eat-dog world, a rat race, and I want to be King Rat, not the Underdog ! “THE ULTIMATE Person WARNING: He who is not the predator soon becomes the prey! For, it is Person “self-preservation, self-seeking, and self-interest” which is “The Highest Good”!
SOME RULES FOR Person PATRIOTS WAR means you have something more important to do with your life.
Like Dick Cheney... AND THOSE NEO-CONSERVATIVES Let someone else die, You have to plan the next war! If you die, think, who will plan the next war!
Always pretend to be “SUPER PATRIOTIC”! How? Cry during the national anthem. Energetically wave the flag during parades. Enthusiastically declare, at the top of your lungs, “America is NUMBER ONE!”. However, never “Buy American”. Instead, buy Japanese and European products. The quality’s about the same, but the latter have more Person” status value”
Never miss a chance to “wrap yourself in the flag”. Oliver North proved one could lie, cheat and do wrong with impunity. That is, if one wears an uniform claiming the wrong was done for love of country.
Always tell people how much you “love” America. However, pay your taxes begrudgingly. That is, of course, after you’ve taken advantage of your tax shelter. Besides, let’s face it, taxes are for the middleclass and masses. They’re the backbone of America, not you the upwardly mobile young professional. It’s their fault for not changing to become college graduates. Remember how the middleclass types “fooled around” in high school calling you “an egghead”,” a bookworm”, “a geek”, “a nerd” while you dedicated yourself to your studies? Now, who’s having the last laugh? Who’s paying the taxes? Always take all your business deductions. Write off as much of your personal lifestyle as you legally can. For, it is a given, the more taxes a Person pays, the less he has to spend on himself!!!
Always extol the virtues of “FREE ENTERPRISE”! Why? Because it is free enterprise which has made America great, not the Constitution or the freedoms listed in the Bill of Rights. For it is “economics" money), not liberty, which makes our country strong. It is “economics” which pays for all those nuclear weapons which protect us. “Freedom” only gives us the opportunity to “press the nuclear buttons”. Never trust peace marches, diplomatic negotiations and summits. It bombs that kill “the enemy”, not words! Always advocate the” Blessings of Free Enterprise” as the p’ answer to all the world’s problems. Of course, never hesitate to help your company destroy its competitors thereby monopolizing its market. For Free Enterprise means enterprise which is free for some but not for all. In other words, a competitor should not be given the freedom to steal your market share Never question the methodologies of Capitalism, no matter how cruel the outcome! If U.S. plants shut down moving their operations overseas, never publicly express your concern. It’s not your fault thousands of American workers lost their jobs. It’s only the operation of the free enterprise system culling out the unproductive and inefficient. Besides it’s all Labor’s fault for demanding an exorbitant wage for high school’ graduates. Never support government regulation of the private sector; unless, of course, it gives your company a competitive advantage in the marketplace. If you support “government regulation to protect the public interest”, you’re a dead Person! Your colleagues will think you’re a socialist, a Commie, or worse yet, a Democrat! Why ask for trouble? IMPORTANT: Always place the interests of your company before the interests of America!!! After all, the business of America is “BUSINESS”. What’s good for “BUSINESS” is good for America. Besides, let’s be honest, America’s on the decline. The signs are all-round us. The handwriting is on the wall. Remember... One day, America will pass away, however, The Multinational Corporate States Of The World will live on forever more! It’s the Person/CORPOID who shall inherit the Earth, not the patriots! The farsighted Person knows it’s time to make “friends” with the Japanese, Germans and Arabs. They’ll be taking over soon. Forewarned is forearmed! Never believe all that democracy “junk” the politicians are selling to the public It’s a myth a fiction. “Government of the people, by the people, for the people” does not exist. Public elected office, and the candidates, goes to the highest Person bidders through campaign contributions. Remember... The only worthwhile politician is the one who’s bought, and” stays bought”! For, today, democracy means, “Government of the people, by the politicians, for the Special Interests”! And, who are the Special Interests? The Persons!!! Do yourself a favor. Forget everything you learned in civics class! Always remember the “Person POLITICAL MOTTO”, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can take FROM!!! your country!” .And do unto to them, before they do unto you! VERY IMPORTANT: One knows he has achieved “Person SUCCESS” when he can utter these words with conviction, “I HAVE IT ALL! I’ve got mine, and the hell with everyone else!”, or “Yeah, it’s all the fauDISCONCERTING QUESTIONS

THE TECH IT INDUSTRY IS NEXT... OUTSOURCING OFF-SHORING THE NEXT GENERATION'S ''OUR KIDS'' ECONOMIC PROSPERITY
The Mega-international corporate monopolies are beginning gradual exportation of the American-created Tech Industry to foreign nations. Many white collar and blue collar workers we lose their living wage jobs. Moreover, the Mega-Multinationals will be importing foreign Tech professionals (under H visas) to replace American tech professionals at lower salaries. This is where we draw the line. Time to dig in and vociferously declare our opposition. After years( as College and University professors) spent retraining downsized US workers, we professors are not standing silently by and observing our efforts cast aside overboard for cheap foreign labor and corporate PROFITEERING!!!

NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR BAD NEWS
'The Middleclass Advocate'' We take no delight in reporting the following appalling news: Liberals love their country, as much as if not more, than conservatives. Nevertheless the truth must be stated: Our recently concluded economic scrutiny of the Bush tax-giveaways for the RICH include demoralizing ramifications; almost too depressing - appalling to envisage. None of us could sleep after Reading the report. Bottom Line:
America is destined to be converted into a train-wrecked society. There exists no feasible fiscal methodology by which the American people can repay the conservatively projected deficits; and, exponentially increasing debt. Our Republican brothers and sisters, (those not true conservatives) predestined us bankrupts, with a massive economic depression inevitably to follow. No other unbiased monetary or fiscal conclusion can be reached.

"THERE IS NO FUTURE PROSPERITY FOR AMERICA.
THERE IS NO THERE, THERE!"
The Economist
The Economist reiterated for all: "THERE IS NO THERE, THERE! Future prosperity for America is non-existent. For the middle-class and poor - The People. Current DO-NOTHINGISM equates to disaster. Like retraining people for fictitious future jobs. No longer do economists allude to an annual BIGGER AMERICAN PIE. There are no innovative industries deliberated; nor well-paying jobs even for the college educated. No transition to anything; except calamity. Then, a humiliating slow and painful demise. Resulting, in a drastically reduced standard of living and Third-Rate nation status. Believe me, this is not a trade or jobs issue. This is the very survival of: THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, THE MIDDLE-CLASS, THE AMERICAN DREAM - our way of life is in jeopardy! Without economic security, no future prosperity, there is no National Security. Terrorism threat pales in comparison. 'It's the economy, Stupid!'"
"Current GLOBALIZATION trends can no longer be ignored. If no immediate corrective is attempted, then the future belongs to other powers. In all probability, authoritarian Communist China will shortly the world. A monster, so to speak, of our creation. Remember, Tianamin (sp) Square? In global polarity, the EU will achieve second place. Because? The EU's essence is, by definition, an active plan for future prosperity. The US - not a contender."
NO MORE TAKEAWAYS
"Furthermore, the time for TRUTH TELLING is here. To insist upon; and, if necessary, DEMAND the REFORMATION - NOT REVOLUTION - of America's economic paradigm. No more 'fast-tracked' pseudo-Free Trade agreements; without congressional debate! Prosperity must be America's impetus - not wars planting Liberty at rifle point. No more giveaways, of Middle-Class wealth, in pseudo-Free Trade; or, otherwise. No more, what I call, TAKEAWAYS. Such as, the President's alleged Social Security reform. In reality, a cancerous poison pill will be inserted in Social Security ending in its demise. Further bankrupting the nation. Hello??? Trillion in additional debt. Besides, does this not spark inter-generational warfare? Pitting children against parents and grandparents. Is not such rivalry the nastiest variety of demagoguery? Disingenuous political gaming of one generation against another?"
JESUS RE SOCIAL SECURITY
The Theologian: "Yes. No more TAKEAWAYS. It is one thing to believe in the Bible; quite another to actually live Jesus's Gospel Way. The Gospel, a condensation of the Bible, spells out The Way unambiguously! Hello??? As in, The Gospel Followers? If the President is a Christian, what about 'Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.' Are the young, who support this claptrap, disposed to financially sustain their impoverished parents. Jesus sternly criticized the hypocritical younger generation. Children did not provide for parents. They considered honor merely words. Saying good things about parents - but neglecting their necessities of life. Jesus was furious with the priests. They knew better. Instead, all preached and followed the letter; but, arrogantly defied the Law's - holy spirit and meaning. Jesus prophesied, in the end time, fathers would bitterly oppose sons - daughters against mothers. In FDR's day, it was the same. That is why Social Security was legislated!"
TIME???
The Economist: "The real problem is time.
The exponential skyrocketing of the escalation dilemma. The clock is ticking. Time is running out for America; especially, the Middle-Class. No more leisure to tarry. Neither can we wait upon others' myopic vision to catch up. Bluntly, America is rapidly reaching the point of no return. The concluding stages of mad-rush globalization upon us. We stand at the periphery of indescribable CATASTROPHES. A cataclysm looms. The negatives from which recovery to former prosperity becomes impossible."
The youthful Cynic quoted Dr. MLK, "Yeah. Why should we? If not us, who? If not now, when? If you love your country, you love its people from which you came. You act in their best interests. Otherwise, YOU love only yourself, not your country. This issue has become a matter of conscience - conviction."
A classic moment of uncontrollable hysterical laughter erupted. Therefore: A COMPREHENSIVE REANALYSIS OF THE DEPRESSING PROBLEM FOLLOWS.
A RESTATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
ONE ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF THE NATION What is The State of America's Economy? Has Our Time of Prosperity Passed? Can We Recapture Our Former Standard of Living?
AMERICA IS BANKRUPT?
What follows is a grim interpretation of America's dismal economic prospects. A disquieting portrayal of the nation's instability. Indisputable economic realities verify America's prosperity is facing its demise. Our economy is undermined, in danger of collapse. Bluntly, America is bankrupt, its bounty squandered. What??? The richest nation in the world is bankrupt??? Yes. America is rich, but its people are experiencing a relentless reduction in their standard of living. The Middle-Class are captives chained to a treadmill. Feverishly working harder, but never advancing forward. Daily falling further behind, poised on the brink of bankruptcy. America is ensnared in a subtle economic and ethical crisis. If not addressed; it will inevitably trigger an abrupt precipitous national decline.
Grim Economic Reality Follows:
[ .] An intentional, but not malicious, de-industrialization of America has transpired. An imperceptible, insidious dismemberment [a self-cannibalization] and exportation of our wealth. Our manufacturing base is being rendered impotent. Our capacity to produce goods nullified. Together with the potential for future prosperity. The truism of economics is: without domestic capital investment in manufacturing, the annual production of a larger "ECONOMIC PIE" is unachievable. This essential life blood of investment is being sucked dry. Less manufacturing creates less growth; consequently, a perilous reduction in prosperity. Incredibly, not only domestic investment, but also: our vast manufacturing capacity; intact means of production; entire plants and factories; complete industries - have been carelessly exported. This took America over years to create. Even US wealth in: technological knowledge and industrial trade secrets [research financed by US taxpayers] is rapidly vanishing. Similarly, component-parts industries vital to national security are dispatched abroad. All, thoughtlessly, shipped overseas. Most disheartening is the silence of elected officials and the media. The irresponsible, stubborn refusal to focus the limelight on this crucial issue. To elevate it, in public significance, to the level of scrutiny, deliberation and debate it warrants. For example, the appalling scarcity of legislative proposals to limit "irrational outsourcing" [of living-wage jobs] is a national scandal.
US generosity acknowledged no boundaries; as if, America's wealth was inexhaustible. The Marshall Plan was negligently permitted to drift into what presently is designated globalization.
Since the s the US Middle-Class aggregated vast wealth which was transported abroad, in "The Great Middle-Class Wealth Giveaway." Many nations prospered. [Europe, Japan Korea etc.] Communism's bloodless downfall liberated the world. However, this triumph extracted a terrible toll. Enfeebling US economic vitality. By conservative estimates, the US Middle-Class standard of living should have doubled; if not tripled. that did not occur. The reverse happened.
Furthermore, Globalization was nourished; escalated into feeding frenzy. Ergo, we are imperiled with the exponential exportation of America. Such irrational, unrestrained, frenzied Globalization is inherently flawed; buttressed by The Pseudo-Free Trade Doctrine. Yet, the US government and multinationals persist upon its proliferation. The Middle-Class is expected to do for China, India [and the third world], what it did for Europe et al. Providing easy market access to cheap foreign imports for American consumption.
HOW DID THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT? THE MARSHALL PLAN GONE MAD
THE WALMARTIZATION OF AMERICA A VICIOUS CATCH DANGERS OF PURCHASING IMPORTS
WAL-MART is the largest US retailer purchasing between $ - BILLION of China's exports. The U.S. annualChina trade deficit exceeds a shocking $ billion. Continuing to grow exponentially as more U.S. and EU monopolies and small businesses madly rush to manufacture products in China - exploiting its slave-waged laborers. These goods are shipped to U.S. as imports. Produced at Chinese Prices, but sold at inflated American prices. Moreover, Wal-Mart demands suppliers charge "The China Price" - the cheapest, lowest price possible. This coercion forces suppliers to further invest overseas; exacerbating and quickening the exportation of America. The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing and living-wage jobs. Thereby, igniting more fuel to blazing globalization. In the process, ruining our economy.
We call this Catch - WALMARTIZATION which:
( .) nullifies the potential for future prosperity; ( .) fosters an obsessively-compulsive vicious cycle and circle; ( .) devastates our domestic businesses, The Middle-Class, our economy, national security and sovereignty.
WALMARTIZATION ensnares unwitting Americans into a Catch - "Win, but no win situation." Today, you get the lowest price, but eventually lose your job; either, to outsourcing, downsizing; or, being part-timed - probably without benefits. Imperceptibly, progressively you become impoverished. Inflation increases, your wages decrease. Your income reduces. You are forced to accept a lesser-paying job. A day arrives when you are unable to afford even Wal-Mart prices. You have slipped into the bottom % quintile of Americans - The Working Poor. Today, WALMARTIZATIONgives you the lowest, China price. However, what is the real cost? Bluntly, Americans buying cheap imports, purchase themselves out of good living-wage jobs. Reducing their families standard of living .
Angry White Males [AWM]
a
US Corporation are strangling US politics.
Politicians are eagerly dominated by corporate campaign contributions. Which, of course, Big Business earns from the taxpaying-consumer. All are familiar with "Playing The Game - The Score." "Either you go along; or, you do not get along." The Special Interests are certain the middle-class will never support public financing of elections. [Estimated cost a maximum of $ - Billion each major election cycle - in a $ . Trillion Budget. Go Figure?]. Thus, to be trite, The Rich get richer; as the Middle-Class gets poorer. The Poor simply get scared. Thus, the transfer of wealth from the middle-class to the wealth-class continues unimpeded. Best Recent Example: Pres. Bush's $ . Trillion tax giveaway to the rich. The primary causation of our enormous deficits - bankruptcy. Simultaneously, fiscal responsibility is demanded by TAKEAWAYS from Middle-Class and The Needy's Federal Programs. Manufactured fiscal crises use scare tactics to force unnecessary reforms of Social Security, Welfare etc. Of course, while claiming allegiance to Christian principles.
The more sinister side of WALMARTIZATION manipulates a fear-mongered frightened Middle-Class which is experiencing a reduced standard of living. Living-wages are constrained; or, in some cases drastically cut.
DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT.
To use technical economics terminology: buying imports ravages the crucial DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT. If you do not buy American-made goods, the dollars you spend on imports are shipped to foreign nations. Your dollars are recycled over and over generating and multiplying more wealth for in that foreign economy. You export prosperity to that foreign nation, at the expense of our economy. US consumers who buy imports commit ECONOMIC SUICIDE. Sales of American-made goods plummet, initiating the demise of our domestic industries; especially, small business. Therefore, either small business joins the mad rush to manufacturing overseas; or, they perish. Worse yet , daily, Wal-Mart, and others, grow in retail monopoly power. Building more stores in more U.S. towns. Which places local small retailers at an impossible price competitive disadvantage. In Monopoly [oligopoly] parlance designates this - LOWBALLING. Charging retail prices below your competitors cost. This unjustly devastates local retailers who cannot compete with The China Price. Thus, enormous numbers of efficient profitable small businesses are forced out of business.
COMPLETE OPEN ACCESS TO THE US MARKET FOREIGN NATIONS USE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES PREDATORY PRICING DUMPING = LOWBALLING DRIVES US BUSINESS BANKRUPT OR OVERSEAS
The USA permitted foreign competitors unrestricted [open] access to our lucrative market. These foreign nations did not reciprocate. They disallowed, constrained, and thwarted equivalent access and entry to their markets. They created ingeniously barriers [unfair trade practices ] to US goods amounting to FOREIGN PROTECTIONISM.
Meanwhile, the same nations abused our generosity damaging our domestic markets; and, the entirety of the US economy. Foreign corporations attacked our underbelly. They lowball-priced American-made goods "dumping" cheap slave-waged imports; priced even below their cost.
Imperceptibly, one U.S. industry after another; either, failed; or, capitulated ("surrendered") substantial U.S. market share. Others were driven into bankruptcy, sometimes with the indignity of assets sold at auction for pennies on the dollar. Other threatened businesses , without any other option, simply sold assets and market share. Moreover, business owners blamed themselves for failure; unaware they were victims of illegal monopolistic frauds and scams. As a result, foreign nations secured dominant shares of one US market after another. Thereafter, they maintained monopolistic control continuing to sell cheap imports. They recovered their low-balling DUMPING LOSSES by inflating US prices. The consumer must pay the inflated monopoly price. No other competitive price exists.
Worse yet, this domestic predatory environment panics small businessmen from even considering starting new businesses. The odds of failure are stacked against them. The mere threat of predatory foreign competition annihilates new US domestic investment. The record is replete with examples of one new U.S. fledgling business after another - are snuffed out in infancy before gaining a foothold in US market share.
This unabated, systematic state of affairs leaves one alternative. Manufacturers are forced to export manufacturing - compelled to abandon the American economy. The USA no longer exports American-made goods. Instead, it exports manufacturing to produce goods by immorally exploiting slave-waged - even child labor. So, entire American industries are exported. The goods produced are shipped back to the US charged at American Prices.
The result? Bluntly, consumers do not buy expensive American-made goods. Therefore, American companies can no longer compete in the American economy. Remaining US. manufacturers barely survive. Finding American-made goods is becoming virtually impossible. However, the most disturbing fact is: US Small Business provides most new well-paying American jobs.
Yes. Domestic and foreign predatory pricing practices are illegal. They violate Federal and State Anti-Trust laws - and FTC regulations. But, these laws, are rarely, if ever, enforced by government. Why? You decide for yourself.
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE AN IDIOT TRADES GOODS WITHOUT RECEIVING ANYTHING IN RETURN
TRADE occurs when two parties do commerce. Buying and selling seeking the best bargain. A skilled negotiator contracts a profitable commercial or trade agreement. This is a "Quid Pro Quo." I give you this; and, in return, you give me that. This is known as doing business. The business of America is business. [Calvin Coolidge]
The same is true negotiating Foreign Trade Agreements. Each government makes, accepts or rejects offers to buy, sell, or exchange goods and services. They believe this will create WEALTH - prosperity for their country.
Historically, our bilateral /multilateral agreements were mutually beneficial. Usually, we made a profit, called a trade surplus. A loss is called a trade deficit. Trade deficits enraged our Founding Fathers. Heads rolled as treasonous accusations bellowed throughout The Land.
As unbelievable as it sounds, since the s, the intent of our bilateral/multilateral trade became distorted. Modern trade surpluses are no longer the goal. Today, THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE reigns unchallenged. The store is being given away; contrary to our constitutional command to provide for the General Welfare. Behind closed doors, our country's "representatives" enthusiastically contract away our wealth. All participants are assured a benefit; except us. We give and give, but we do not get. In return, we receive a bag of air.
Trade has transformed from a prosperous enterprise into a bankrupt foreign policy. Its new mission - to buy the allegiance of faithless allies. With grandiosity, we selected powder-puff allies who allegedly shared our ideals. As long as we paid. Benevolently we granted them Most-Favored-Nation-Status. Code words for an economic advantage damaging to our self-interest. Sure, I will be your friend and ally, if you pay me. Like lonely children, we tried to buy friends using toys as carrots. Only to discover fair-weathered friends are nowhere to be found during a raging storm.
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE
facilitated globalization. Passage of one disadvantageous, ill-advised, feigned-"FREE" TRADE agreement after another was applauded. This mindlessness persists to our unending misfortune. Illustrated by unsuccessful NAFTA, WTO; and, now CAFTA. Without reasonable restraint, we adamantly export our wealth. [See: The condition of our Merchant Marine.] No longer are we a viable trading nation, rather we transport our industrial base to our competitors. We are a buyer, no longer a seller nation. Soon nothing American-made will remain to be traded. That is not good business, because no business exists. Business is no longer the business of America; greed is. All is not well in "The Land of Bounty." She is deteriorating. As GM goes, so goes America. But, GM is losing its leading market share to the Japanese. Hello???
Satire and sarcasm aside, all this relentlessly ravaged US industry, business, labor; and, especially, the Great Taxpaying Middle-Class. Without objection, debate or deliberation by elected officials. Such malfeasance desecrates every sound principle of governance. It is time to reprimand such misconduct. Negligent elected officials, who sanctioned this, must be censured. If necessary, removed in disgrace. Why? We employ elected officials, compensated with our taxes, to protect our economic and financial best interests. Not to be Judas traders.
One economist observes, "We have lost our way! Current Globalization is the scatter-gun approach. The product of mindless scatter-brained people. Irrationally panicked Business is fleeing overseas - outsourcing and exporting The America, we so love. A short-term neurotic impulse, devoid of reason. Certain to cause precipitous economic degeneration - societal suicide." Ergo, we are entrapped. Confronting the grave predicament of impending fiscal and economic collapse within our lifetime.
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE
is satirical hyperbole to awaken readers to national self-deception regarding THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE. To expose self-evident fallacies in alleged free trade. It is neither free; nor is it trade. Not free. USA goods are denied fair market entry in first-world countries. Which, blatantly, practice protectionist barriers to trade. It is not trade. One-way street trade is not trade. No trade bargain exists. The USA [The American People] does not receive a fair reciprocal commercial return. Trade in essence means two- way trade. Our $ Billion trade deficit proves free trade is non-existent.
Economics is not religion founded upon dogma. Instead, science based upon finite analysis of wealth creation. Usually by the negotiated interchange of goods and services etc. Economics objectively quantifies commercial facts equating the wealth reality for all. Bluntly, "How much, and who got it." Esoteric illusions, impracticalities and ambiguities [i.e. THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE] have no place in economics. Yet, our economists and officialdom adhere to this doctrine as religious devotees. Therein resides the problem. Our purpose is to shock academia and officialdom into awareness free trade is unsustainable in modern times. Even Ricardo's historical standards no longer pass strict scrutiny. Bluntly. today, the global free trade paradigm is unscientific Pollyannaish pseudo-optimism bordering on the absurd . Therefore, we designate it with the prefix "pseudo." Our point is: this paradigm must be discarded. Replaced by a pragmatic, reciprocal enforceable and equitable new paradigm. Our suggestion, [presented only as an academic starting point] recommends what we term "Free- Fair-Mutually-Balanced Trade."
This paradigm must include three principles: ( ) free and unrestricted reciprocal access to the trading partners market. ( ) the trade agreement must be mutually-fair giving partners an equitable chance to achieve a wealth benefit. ( ) the agreement must be balanced. One party cannot possess leverage injurious the another's economic interest.
Mutual enforcement mechanisms must be created to achieve these ideals. We suggest three concepts:
( ) TRADE SUSPENSION - If trade between parties reaches an injurious imbalance (Triggering an unfair trade deficit), then trade is immediately but temporarily suspended. One Example of deficit imbalance is: the unacceptable unreasonable USA trade deficit [over $ Billion] with China.
( ) The suspension would activate mandatory renegotiation of the agreement.
( ) If and when an equitable readjustment and rebalance is achieved, then trade would resume.
At the heart of all trade agreements must be one unwavering principle - trust. Mutual trust based upon flexibility. To maintain international trade goodwill, all agreements must remain open-ended. Permitting equitably adjustments to meet the dictates of a changing global marketplace. Our primary objective is to reasonably stem the devastating effects of globalization. Which is ravaging on our wealth, national security and our middle-class. Nevertheless, we believe our recommendations go far toward creating global fair trade, peace and goodwill
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
OLIGARCHY AND IRREDENTISM
DICTATORSHIP IS NOT THE PROBLEM OLIGARCHY IS OLIGARCHIC ELITISM OF BIRTH OPPOSES DEMOCRACY AND MERITOCRACY BY RESTRICTING FREE ENTERPRISE CAPITALISM
WHAT IS OLIGARCHY?
A professor entered his first day History class. Silently he drew a pyramidal triangle of a two-tiered society declaring, "There is all of History. The top % are the king or dictator and the ruling class - aristocracy - the oligarchy. The remaining % is you and me - the slaves - THE HAVE-NOTS. This represents all of history until the English Civil War; and, especially, the American Revolution. Then he exited the class leaving the students dumbfounded.
The next day he entered the classroom and drew a three-tiered pyramidal triangle on the chalkboard exclaiming, "This represents all of history from the American Revolution to modern times." Again, he exited leaving the students flabbergasted.
On the third day he entered and rapidly began lecturing, "Now here are the details. From ancient times two-tier oligarchy society existed. Usually, the oligarchy consists of: the priests, the military, the police, aristocratic wealthy families. The ruling class. This establishment's primary conservative purpose is retention of the status quo at all costs.
Dictatorship is not the real world challenge. Yes. There is an allegedly all-powerful king, pharaoh or dictator. But without the oligarchy's support, he is a dead man. Every strongman needs the support of the ruling elitist class - the aristocrats - the oligarchy.
History's recurring dilemma, is this: the and the oppression of the MANY by the FEW.
Not government; but of the MANY by the FEW Oligarchy creates a two-tiered societal system without any opportunity for the MANY. Oligarchy is elitism. Usually, the oligarchs separate themselves from the HAVE-NOTS into exclusive organizations. Unaware and uninterested in the daily sufferings of the people. Oligarchs do not labor. Rather they perpetuates their economic self-interest as a matter of privilege. Wealth is based upon birth alone; not upon a persons character, hard work or meritorious achievement. The elitist class preys upon the weak; feeding off of the labors of the many. Who are paid at bare subsistence slave-wages. The FEW promoted their wealth by exploiting the poor. It is oppression. The control of "the mob." the have-nots. That's us - you and me. Sometimes referred to as The Great Unwashed.
As Alexander Hamilton called the People - THE BEAST. The oppressed are enslaved in a fixed system with no hope of advancement or fair share of the the national wealth
This Elitism is the enemy of democracy and republicanism. Privileged is retained by the ruthless of the MANY. Thus, Oligarchy endangers a society's peace. Eventually, conflict erupts. Usually, followed by murderous persecution. Order is maintained by the police; or, if needed the military.
GENIUS OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS CREATION OF REPUBLICAN-DEMOCRACY CREATING THE HAVE-SOMES = THE AMERICAN MIDDLE-CLASS
Our Founding Fathers' genius expressed itself in creation of a republican-democracy. This incorporated, restricted and restrained History's dangerous oligarchy. Republican-Democracy is a form of oligarchy; continuing many of its characteristics. Even so, The MANY elect The FEW. Whose political powers are temporary and dependant upon the MANY'S will and whim. We do not elect politicians to us. Rather the FEW are our servants - public servants! These representative oligarchs must advocate the best interests of the governed. Required to rank the people's interest supreme over all others. Especially, above the FEW powerful, vested, moneyed - special - interests. Retention in office rests firmly within the consent of the governed. Political control is secured in their hands. Thus, The MANY hold the ultimate tromp card. Withdrawing their consent in the next election; thereby removing the FEW. [The Professor illustrated this by a three-tiered upside-down pyramid.] This is America's political construction. It is patently obvious, political and economic power originates from the bottom - dominating the top. So, the people govern themselves through chosen representatives. This is why America is the world's greatest hope. A nation created not upon the rights of familial privilege, wealth, or pseudo divine right. To the contrary, upon a birthright of unalienable rights bestowed by the Creator. Our Republican-Democracy owes an enormous debt to the Enlightenment. During the Constitutional Convention, prominent Founders [who were Deists and Freemasons] espoused its principles. However, The Founders were unambiguous. America is not guaranteed perpetual existence. Rather, it is - A Great Risk - The Great Experiment. Containing the intrinsic capability to cause its disintegration. Thereby, negligently reverting to oligarchy.
How? Why?
Because democracy is exasperating deliberation - slow and inefficient. Government is institutionalized upon two RULES. The of Law - which is created by the free operation of the of Reason. Law is born of discordant, but reasoned debate. It promotes power-restriction by intentionally incorporating gridlock - checks and balances. Which means a state of confrontation and stalemate is typically created. Aggravating quarrelsome debate continues [ad nauseam] until reasonable compromise is achieved. Politicians are not intended to be accommodating. They are supposed to disagree, to protect our interest, without being disagreeable.
Why? Because ... Law, not the cult of personality or privilege, governs our Land. The law, in effect, determines WHO GETS, AND HOW MUCH. WHO PAYS AND WHO AVOIDS TAXES. We do not go to war. We tediously argue our differences - then vote. So, he who controls the lawmaking process, controls the nation. The Public [turned-off by the dreariness] does not understand this. It is contrary to human nature. Unrealistically, Humans impatiently demand instant results. The immediate outcome the dictator or king offers. Yes. The strongman presents you prompt results, then steals your freedom. In exchange, you receive a life of servitude to him and his eagerly supportive oligarchy.
Most importantly, our Founders formulated 'HOPE' for mankind - posterity. What we identify as The Middle-Class - The Have-Somes. Take HOPE away, and republican-democracy collapses. Democracy requires each generation's rededication to preserve it. Why? Because the oligarchy-monster lingers waiting to substitute itself to fill any vacuum. That caused by citizens' inaction or apathy - their failure to be civically responsible. It takes 'ETERNAL VIGILANCE' to conserve Liberty's gift. A perpetual alertness to oppose the relentless insistence of the powerful FEW to assume absolute control. To rule, not govern, the MANY. This is why Ben Franklin responded, 'A Republic; if you can keep it?' In WW II, the Nazis and Communists proved Democracy is a fragile flower effortlessly crushed under the jackboot. Do not confuse Oligarchy with THE ESTABLISHMENT. All are given a fair chance to achieve the America Dream. Meaning to become a member of the The Middle-Class. The industrious - crème del a crème - who attain establishment-class status [by meritorious achievement] deserve their earnedrewards.
Thus, conceptually, America offers everyone the opportunity to labor and profit in accordance with their personal industry. A citizen's prosperity is founded upon character, merit and hard work. You reap what you sow for yourself and family. No longer are the MANY to be exploited by enslavement to the benefited FEW. Ergo, America's years of wealth and prosperity. You are free! From poverty, to achieve The Middle-Class. From The Middle-Class, a chance of advancement into the wealth class. For all who were willing to work for it. This country is the wonderful gift you have inherited. But, do you appreciate it?
Tell me? Today. Are things the way I just described them? What is the potency of our Republican-Democracy? What about History's ever-present oligarchy-monster? Is it at our doorstep?"
"One day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Joseph

MEXICO'S OPPRESSIVE OLIGARCHY [Dedicated to the memory of Emiliano Zapata] A DISTURBING EXAMPLE OF REGIONAL DESTABILIZATION
NAFTA = APPALLING EXAMPLE of ONE-WAY-STREET UN-FREE TRADE WITH MEXICO Afta' NAFTA Disasta' Debacle
[NOTE: this essay contains intentionally inserted repetition to acquaint those unfamiliar with economics and its practical - sometimes brutal -consequences. ]NAFTA Major Harm, Minor GoodTO BE FAIR:Some NAFTA proponents are blameless; misled by fallacious arguments by more-fervent dominant proponents. The latter argued NAFTA would retain a vast amount of capital [US capital investment] on the North-American continent. This would offset MAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION to the third world. This faulty analysis is presently verifiederroneous - tragically incorrect. NAFTA caused major harm and insignificant good. It played into the hands of the Mexican oligarchy. An unmeritorious inheritance aristocracy class. [Sorry, Fausto] Thus, we exported vital industry and manufacturing; while the Mexican aristocracy greedily sucked-up US wealth. A disastrous blunder. Unearned benefits were reaped [raped] at expense of the Mexican People. No attempt was undertaken to improve their standard of living. More infuriating... As in the past, the arrogant oligarchy, as an exchange of trade, exported their oppressed population [smoldering impoverished masses]. Illegal immigrants flooded over our borders. Thus, as previously stated, the Middle-Class financed taxes to: export living-wage jobs by outsourcing; while importing illegal immigrants to driving down their wages. NAFTA, simultaneously, devastated the American and Mexico people!!! In all honesty, pseudo-free trade agreements represent no more than massive LEGALIZED THEFT. Contributing to incremental trade deficits; which the US maintains with all the world's nations. Herein resides the rub. Further wealth transfers are extracted from our middle-class and working-poor. Unfortunately, these taxpayer is twice burnt. Billed a second time. Required, by law, to bear illegal- immigration's financial burden. In the past, this was not a serious problem. However, today, with the Middle-Class's economic downgrading, ["downsizing?"] a brutal economic fact has emerged. The middle-class and working-poor are Tax Bankrupt - broke! The necessary wealth and taxes cannot be generated to absorb unrestrained illegal immigration. It is time for Santa to take a holiday!!! [It is too depressing. We will not consider the $ Billion US-to-Mexico loan-bailout to salvage US banks from collapse.]The western hemisphere must recognize pseudo-free trade is recipe for disaster. Such proposals are intellectually-fallacious inherently defective destined to end as NAFTA. The Secretly negotiated sham CAFTA is doomed to spectacular failure. Its stated goal cannot be achieved by ill-advised piecemeal trade diplomacy. It is misguided and unwise to negotiate with oligarchies which thrive by opposing their populations' economic survival. All that is gained is - ''INSTABILITY!" Not to mention the ethical and moral questions. The foolish pseudo-free trade doctrine and paradigm must be abandoned. A feasible, transparent comprehensive equitable solution must be found. Ross Perot was correct. A great sucking-sound of an economic disaster was heard post NAFTA passage. The only NAFTA success exception is Canada. Why is Canada an important example? Canadians' living-standard is equivalent to the USA. It represents an important element of this Site's suggested GRADUAL-GLOBALISM proposal. Namely, The European Accords actualization as a necessary prerequisite to entry into The Common Market of the Americas.
WHAT IS IRREDENTISM? [$ . WORD] DANGERS OF IRREDENTISM: ONE CONSEQUENCE OF IRRATIONAL GLOBALIZATION PANDERING RADICAL IRREDENTISTS
Radical irredentists may advocate redemption of the historically lost territories once owned by their nation of origin. Now well within the sovereignty of a foreign power. But are immigrants demanding lands be returned to Mexico? No. However, radical irredentists may subtly advocate "Conquest by Immigration." Demographics do matter. Increased population equates to amplified political power. Hispanics are largest US minority; having surpassed African-Americans. Such further nourishes paranoia.AN ILLUSTRATION: ARMED MINUTEMEN AT BORDERUnquestionably, ANGRY WHITE MALES = AWMs have a justifiable case. They have suffered the most from rampant globalization - emasculation. Illegal immigration caused of unwise globalization aggravates AWMs anger and resentment. However, resolution of Angry White Males' predicament has become almost impossible. Why? Because a majority refuse to acknowledge its true causation. No disease is cured without knowing its cause. No comprehensive plan, new business paradigm in unison with the government, to solve AWM problem remains possible. Because they would probably oppose it against their financial interest. Why? Hate-mongering, right-wing radio demagogues have radicalized the AWMs. Psychologically manipulating AWMs a fallacious BLAME-GAME MENTALITY. The reinforced message is: "Let's blame the little impoverished oppressed Mexican guy forced to immigrate; not our corporate sponsors of this radio program." Hate and blame are easily marketed commodities. Avoidance of the hard new way - laborious research and thinking to find a solution is ignored. The venom-spewers well-know human nature loves blaming another for failure. This explains why, in the elections, most Americans voted against their best economic interest. This Site's position regarding the Minutemen guarding our border is, without question, they have a moral and legally justifiable position. Exercising their constitutional right to redress of Grievances; and to peaceably assemble and protest. However, by unwisely arming themselves they do a self-defeating disservice to the cause. An inherent intimidation is created by bearing weapons under theses circumstances. This is self-defeating. Like shooting oneself in the foot before a marathon. credibility and public support could be lost by one idiotic incident. Brains, not bullets, will solved this problem; or, it will remain unresolved.
PROJECT AN EQUITABLE, COMPREHENSIVE RESOLUTION OF BORDER/IMMIGRATION CRISIS.[OBJECTION:
We object to the hubris of Mexican Government (and its Oligarchy of wealthy families) economically oppressing their people, then dumping the problem on our doorstep. Incredible, but true. Initial research indicates the easiest part of the solution is SEALING THE BORDERS. We mean "SEAL THE BORDERS" where illegal immigration is occurring!] COUNTERFEIT FAST-TRACK TRADECAFTA WITH MORE TO COMENO DEBATE - JUST AN UP OR DOWN VOTEAN INSULT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.TIME TO HIRE A NEW CONGRESS??? MOREOVERAN OPPORTUNITY FOR:PROSPECTIVE GREATNESS AND PROSPERITYA HISTORICAL OPPORTUNITY NEVER TO PRESENT ITSELF AGAIN WHICH WAY WILL WE CHOOSE?CAFTA, FTAA, FAST-TRACK --- OR CMA? REASONABLE GRADUAL GLOBALISMOrMAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION-GREEDISM? NAFTA demonstrated U.S. free-trade? reaps economic, political and ethical bankruptcy. Its sister, CAFTA [The Central America Free Trade Agreement] is destined to contribute to this continuing dreadful catastrophe. NAFTA and CAFTA were surreptitiously designed. Contrived under autocratic [unconstitutional?] Fast-Track Trade authority. Meaning, they were negotiated, virtually in secret, without comprehensive public participation; or, knowledge of the enormous disadvantages involved. Programmed for constrained Congressional debate. To ensure subdued but swift enactment, they were intentionally calculated to circumvent the legislative process. No legislative amendments are permitted. Congress must adopt or reject CAFTA by a up or down vote.If Congress adopts, an economic tragedy will unfold. [Perhaps, irreversible]. Accelerating years of U.S. Middle-Class wealth Giveaways. Worst of all, passage will obstruct America’s capacity to negotiate genuine free trade within the Western Hemisphere. Causing a devastating loss and obliteration of prospective prosperity. On the other hand, a historic opportunity providing future prosperity is at-hand. The formulation of a valuable national trade policy. The Common Market of the Americas. A option and vision unlikely to present itself again.These treaties are not in America’s best interest. The public must demand rejection. Otherwise, with CAFTA’s passage, misery and misfortune looms on the horizon. Why? Because NAFTA and CAFTA are merely launching points for numerous bilateral global free-trade? agreements. After CAFTA’s implementation, the cataclysmic FTAA [The Free Trade of the Americas Agreement] is prearranged. Proponents falsely allege FTAA will finalize a free trade protective zone of North, Central and South America. In reality, this represents a calculated fiction and falsehood. Instead FTAA to encourage the greedism-monster of mad-rush globalization. Facilitating U. S. multinationals; and, these nations’ elitist classes [the oligarchies] to perpetrate the unimaginable. The rampant exploitation of the powerless. The people of the Americas. It is not exaggeration – CAFTA’s enactment will mark the mortality of the American Dream. We, the American people, are at the juncture when we must draw the line. Finally serving notice “Enough is enough.” The out-of- control downward spiral must be halted. A new vision must be instituted. Defeat of CAFTA, and subsequent related-legislation, is beyond crucial-critical importance. The following are self-evident reasons:[NOTE: This Site supports Fast-Track’s vision and ultimate objectives. Without question, strategy for protective capital investment must be implemented within the Western Hemisphere. The reality is some sort of capitalist free enterprise union is an absolute necessity; a matter self interest survival - self-preservation. This buffer strategy must offset the overwhelming boom-to-bust cycle activate in the third world. However,. this site vociferously disputes Fast-Track methodology and its feasibility. Why? Because NAFTA proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, Fast-Track-trade is a failure. Eventually, manufacturing production soon flees North, Central and South America for Third World mad-rush globalization.]However, Fast-Track schemes doom Western Hemisphere prosperity. Evidently visible upon a cursory NAFTA analysis. Therefore, we proposed our European Union-like substitute for Fast-Track. The Common Market of the Americas approach. This provides Western Hemisphere an opportunity to reconstruct its manufacturing production base. Advance manufacturing industries founded upon present and subsequent R&D. Most scientists would agreement mankind is perched upon the threshold of an exciting New Technological Age. After years of objective research, we are convinced our recommended CMA methodology will offer the Western Hemisphere a feasible FREE TRADE mechanism. Not only competing with; but superseding mad-rush globalization in productivity and NEW WEALTH. As the philosopher says,” THE FUTURE IS NOT NOW – THE FUTURE’S FUTURE IS NOW!!!”Undoubtedly, The Europeans are not dim-witted. They soon appreciated The Common Market integration model is the most feasible to produce future prosperity. Why? Because the EU paradigm is equivalent to the “United” within The United States of America.On the other hand, candidly, FAST-TRACK PSEUDO-FREE-TRADE is a harbinger of a chaotic American future. Continuing down the ill-fated NAFTA CAFTA, FTAA, FAST-TRACK path will terminate in calamity and upheaval.
FAST-TRACK-TRADE MUST BE REPEALED
FAST-TRACK-TRADE authority granted to the President by the Congress was a tragic mistake demanding REPEAL. FAST-TRACK conflicts with our Republican-Democracy. It nullifies our system and principles of government. Namely, creation of the OF LAW through the legislative processes of reasoned debate and compromise. To the contrary, FAST-TRACK advances negotiating secretive trade treaties. [NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA etc.] NO extensive debate, no amendments, are tolerated. Just a take-it-or-leave-it - UP OR DOWN vote. This nullifies our representative democracy. Crushes cherished ideals for which many gave their lives. An insult to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Who, in good faith, elected Congress and the President to represent their best economic interests.POLITICAL INSTABILITY:North, Central and South AmericaSome observers contend, from Belize to Tierra del Fuego, historically, oligarchic-aristocracies, in one form or another, dominated since the Conquistadors. Tenaciously retaining oppressive rule. . Unspeakable oppression.
Oligarchies’ greedy FEW prey upon the ensnared powerless. Lives subsisted in virtual involuntary servitude - bordering on slavery? Breaking Poverty’s bondage impossibleThese countries are notorious for inhumane treatment of their working population. Working conditions, worse than Mexico, far beyond the sweat shop. Particularly, including defenseless women or children. Child labor is paid slave-wages. [SEE: Labor Department Documents, stubbornly released, at the insistence of The Honorable Congressman Sander Levin.] Nevertheless, with modern communications [the internet], the oligarchies find it increasing difficult to suppress “the least of these.” Almost all [perhaps, excluding Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic] survive in varying stages of instability. Beneath the surface generational anger simmers. Impending violence awaits detonation. Remember??? The recent Central American wars? Mayhem in El Salvador. Atrocities in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua. Madness in Panama? Unending suffering, agonizing poverty, are ingredients in this devil’s brew. CAFTA represents ignited fuses on national powder-kegs. Its passage, along with FTAA, [and continued Fast-Track] will inflate POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Passage will solidify, exacerbate; eventually, explode the volcano. Spreading its toxic debris throughout Mexico, Central and South America; eventually, returning to the U.S. As the Philosopher says, “Never seek trouble, for trouble finds you soon enough.” The Kathy Lee Gifford Controversy?WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD?[NOTE: Remember Kathy Lee Gifford? Regarding Latin American obscene child slave-waged working conditions, Kathy bore little or no moral culpability. She was as much a victim as those victimized.]Nevertheless, the Gifford controversy exemplifies CAFTA’S further exploitation of child slave-waged labor. Incredibly, this is exactly what is transpiring in North, Central and South America. A major reason this Site vociferously opposes CAFTA; and, its subsequent evil twin FTAA. They epitomizes the depraved level such FAST-TRACK TRADE will reduce us. Kathy was unfairly accused and defamed. However, We, as a Nation, are well-cognizant of these misguided policies. The blunt truth is: We will be immorally complicit by allowing such malevolent trade agreements passage. CAFTA and FTAA transforms America into an active participant in the economic exploitation of the oppressed. Our silence as these are adopted, is equivalent to the wanton defilement of the under-classes of many nations. Creating an unspeakable national guilt. Rightfully, future generations will blame us. Chastising and indelibly marking us with infamy. Forever condemned as the worst of Hypocrites. Permitting our government to do to foreign children what we despised being done to our own? Why? Because, We, as citizens, are morally responsible for what our government does in our name. Where are the voices of the fundamentalists religionists? Where are their morally family values? We are intently listening, but hear only condemnatory silence. If CAFTA FTAA [and continued FAST TRACK TRADE] becomes the Law of our Land, then We can no longer innocently ask, WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD? TEDDY ROOSEVELT:A Honorable Conservative Busting The Pennsylvania Anthracite-Coalminers StrikeThe Breaker Boys = Child Labor LawsOur ethos, morals and ideals oppose enriching ourselves by abusing child slave-waged labor. In the early s, this was abundantly clarified. Teddy Roosevelt busted the Pennsylvania anthracite-coalminers strike. Although a politician, Teddy also was a man of character, honor and integrity. After secretive arrangements, he watched as sadistic mine-overseers hovered over - year olds with whips. Eagerly waiting to bludgeon them; quickening the work pace. These were enslaved Breaker Boys. After viewing their bloodied, broken, deformed hands, it is said, he wept. Hence, our Child Labor Law VIEWS OF OTHER PARTICIPANTS FOLLOW:Are we preaching, here? Damn, Right! "One day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Joseph LOSS OF THE MORAL HIGH GROUNDWE HAVE LOST OUR WAY! CAFTA = FURTHER RUINATION OF OUR NATIONAL REPUTATIONA MORAL AND ETHICAL CROSSROADS We stand at MORAL AND ETHICAL crossroads. Confronted with a moral dividing line in our Nation’s history. Our predicament? We must decide who we are. We must choose. Which way will it be? United with our brothers and sisters of the American? Or, blindly joining in the out-of-control disarray caused by mad-rush globalization.CAFTA will forever destroy future U. S. claims to the high moral ground. CAFTA, NAFTA, FTAA and FAST-TRACK-TRADE raise the serious moral questions for each citizen? Not to mention other the ethical, moral and practical considerations. It will destroy any future GOODWILL with the PEOPLE OF THE AMERICAS! Inflicting further hardship on defenseless souls who looked to our democracy for hope.If I would not want to be oppressed, should I facilitate another’s oppression? If we are Christians, as so many claim, should we not want for others the good things we desire for ourselves? Either we are a Nation based Judeo-Christian ethos; or, we are not. If we ARE not, then we have lost our way. Blind hypocrites aimlessly wandering on the consumerism road to perdition and oblivion? Jesus warned while restating The Law of Karma. “What you sow; so shall you reap.” Sow an evil seed, reap a calamitous poisoned harvest. For what goes around, surely, comes around.
WHO IS OUR NEIGHBOR – MY BROTHER?
Cain cemented God’s Wrath when The Father demanded to know, “Cain, where is your Brother Abel?” Cain arrogantly replied, “What? Am I now to be my Brother’s Keeper?” God answered by severe punishment. In effect, Yes you are to be your brother’s keeper, not murder him, and try to cover it up. Who did Jesus say our neighbor – our brother was. We are to be the Good Samaritan. All men and women are our brothers and sisters. Especially, when in need! All of us bonded as one in The Father’s Family Of Creation. [A Creation still in Evolution, as science knows, this very moment.] Every soul on Earth [especially the people of North, Central and South America] is our neighbor - brother and sister. They are in need of our help, not our injury by CAFTA. Think! Has that not been our Nation‘s purpose from its inception? The City On The Hill. To be a good example to the World! Our democracy represents self-reform and self-correction. America learns from its mistakes. Publicly washes its dirty laundry in Washington. Then hangs it up clean for all the World to see. That is why we call it Washing Town!Hello??? We are Americans. Adoption of CAFTA is an unacceptable un-American standard. Within our hemisphere we upgrade, not downgrade, standards of living. Hello??? Is anyone listening??? We know The Father is

DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTSUSED IN NATIONAL SECURITY
There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!% @*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem.[These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author]

Eagerly, they searched for the devil to trade their souls. Finally, they located him. His name was CAFTA. House Republicans, with the support of Judas Democrats, at last advanced too far. They adopted CAFTA another un-free trade treaty.
Every time a Central American child ascends a garbage dump desperate for food and scraps to sell, Trillion Eons is affixed to their Hades sentence. The "Christian" GOP were championed by Committee Chair. Bill "The Blowhard" Thomas. [A pseudo-economist "par excel lance" with a corresponding opinion of himself.] The key unscrupulous work [twisting truth into falsity, and falsity into truth] was delegated to the self-aggrandizing Rep. E. Clay Shaw. Rather, the one-time major of Ft. Lauderdale. Preceding that: of exceptionally humble origins in N.E. Pennsylvania. A man who forgot from whence he came. One observer, "He's still got the coal dust under his nails."
No. E. Clay Shaw was not indicted by Oliver Stone in the J.F.K. assassination. No. The Thomas-Shaw malevolence is more fetid. The duplicitous betrayal of their fellow American's employment - JOBS!!!

WHAT IMPACT DOES THIS HAVE ON OUR REPUBLICAN-DEMOCRACY?
HAVE WE FORGOTTEN WHO WE ARE?
We have forgot who we are! Americans are a nation of creative individuals and especially businessmen. We are builders, creators of shared wealth and prosperity founded on a meritocracy of individual effort. Supposedly, the harder you apply yourself - work - the greater your reward. We are not a nation of warriors!!! Constantly wasting our middle class wealth [taxes] policing the world. Although we must play our necessary part in keeping international peace. That must be secondary to the well-being of our citizens and nation. Obviously, FAST-TRACK AUTHORITY is unwise policy. Not the America way! Instead, logic dictates time has arrived for a comprehensive rethinking of the US economic paradigm.
Instead, a third U.S. realignment - rebirth – must occur. (Metamorphoses similar to post Revolutionary and Civil Wars.) Meaning: America must regroup its diffused economic strength concentrating it on rebuilding a st Century manufacturing base. Constructing "A st Century American Economic Renaissance." Regenerating defunct industries. A national and hemispheric revitalization - innovated by "A Year Technological Jump Forward." Until this is established as policy, the only pragmatic posture for average Americans is uncompromising OPPOSITION to unbridled FAST-TRACK A

'The Middleclass Advocate'' We take no delight in reporting the following appalling news: Liberals love their country, as much as if not more, than conservatives. Nevertheless the truth must be stated: Our recently concluded economic scrutiny of the Bush tax-giveaways for the RICH include demoralizing ramifications; almost too depressing - appalling to envisage. None of us could sleep after Reading the report. Bottom Line:
America is destined to be converted into a train-wrecked society. There exists no feasible fiscal methodology by which the American people can repay the conservatively projected deficits; and, exponentially increasing debt. Our Republican brothers and sisters, (those not true conservatives) predestined us bankrupts, with a massive economic depression inevitably to follow. No other unbiased monetary or fiscal conclusion can be reached.

Maybe, the times has arrived, to charge all imports a franchise fee, a surcharge for granting them access to our market. If it was % the slave-wage cost, it would be equivalent to PUNITIVE TREBLE DAMAGES AWARDS for unfair trade practices in Anti-Trust cases. This fee cannot be passed-on in higher prices. Such, should be a crime. How to prove it? Thank God. We have mega-computers to trace costs of everything from production to retail prices on ALL IMPORTS." "The Law Professor"

"THERE IS NO FUTURE PROSPERITY FOR AMERICA.
THERE IS NO THERE, THERE!"
The Economist
The Economist reiterated for all: "THERE IS NO THERE, THERE! Future prosperity for America is non-existent. For the middle-class and poor - The People. Current DO-NOTHINGS equates to disaster. Like retraining people for fictitious future jobs. No longer do economists allude to an annual BIGGER AMERICAN PIE. There are no innovative industries deliberated; nor well-paying jobs even for the college educated. No transition to anything; except calamity. Then, a humiliating slow and painful demise. Resulting, in a drastically reduced standard of living and Third-Rate nation status. Believe me, this is not a trade or jobs issue. This is the very survival of: THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, THE MIDDLE-CLASS, THE AMERICAN DREAM - our way of life is in jeopardy! Without economic security, no future prosperity, there is no National Security. Terrorism threat pales in comparison. 'It's the economy, Stupid!'"
"Current GLOBALIZATION trends can no longer be ignored. If no immediate corrective is attempted, then the future belongs to other powers. In all probability, authoritarian Communist China will shortly the world. A monster, so to speak, of our creation. Remember, Tiananmen (sp) Square? In global polarity, the EU will achieve second place. Because? The EU's essence is, by definition, an active plan for future prosperity. The US - not a contender."
NO MORE TAKEAWAYS
"Furthermore, the time for TRUTH TELLING is here. To insist upon; and, if necessary, DEMAND the REFORMATION - NOT REVOLUTION - of America's economic paradigm. No more 'fast-tracked' pseudo-Free Trade agreements; without congressional debate! Prosperity must be America's impetus - not wars planting Liberty at rifle point. No more giveaways, of Middle-Class wealth, in pseudo-Free Trade; or, otherwise. No more, what I call, TAKEAWAYS. Such as, the President's alleged Social Security reform. In reality, a cancerous poison pill will be inserted in Social Security ending in its demise. Further bankrupting the nation. Hello??? Trillion in additional debt. Besides, does this not spark inter-generational warfare? Pitting children against parents and grandparents. Is not such rivalry the nastiest variety of demagoguery? Disingenuous political gaming of one generation against another?"
JESUS RE SOCIAL SECURITY
The Theologian: "Yes. No more TAKEAWAYS. It is one thing to believe in the Bible; quite another to actually live Jesus' Gospel Way. The Gospel, a condensation of the Bible, spells out The Way unambiguously! Hello??? As in, The Gospel Followers? If the President is a Christian, what about 'Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.' Are the young, who support this claptrap, disposed to financially sustain their impoverished parents. Jesus sternly criticized the hypocritical younger generation. Children did not provide for parents. They considered honor merely words. Saying good things about parents - but neglecting their necessities of life. Jesus was furious with the priests. They knew better. Instead, all preached and followed the letter; but, arrogantly defied the Law's - holy spirit and meaning. Jesus prophesied, in the end time, fathers would bitterly oppose sons - daughters against mothers. In FDR's day, it was the same. That is why Social Security was legislated!"
TIME???
The Economist: "The real problem is time.
The exponential skyrocketing of the escalation dilemma. The clock is ticking. Time is running out for America; especially, the Middle-Class. No more leisure to tarry. Neither can we wait upon others' myopic vision to catch up. Bluntly, America is rapidly reaching the point of no return. The concluding stages of mad-rush globalization upon us. We stand at the periphery of indescribable CATASTROPHES. A cataclysm looms. The negatives from which recovery to former prosperity becomes impossible."
The youthful Cynic quoted Dr. MILK, "Yeah. Why should we? If not us, who? If not now, WHEN: ? If you love your country, you love its people from which you came. You act in their best interests. Otherwise, YOU love only yourself, not your country. This issue has become a matter of conscience - conviction."
A classic moment of uncontrollable hysterical laughter erupted. Therefore: A COMPREHENSIVE REANALYSIS OF THE DEPRESSING PROBLEM FOLLOWS.
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN:
ONE ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF THE NATION What is The State of America's Economy? Has Our Time of Prosperity Passed? Can We Recapture Our Former Standard of Living?
AMERICA IS BANKRUPT?
What follows is a grim interpretation of America's dismal economic prospects. A disquieting portrayal of the nation's instability. Indisputable economic realities verify America's prosperity is facing its demise. Our economy is undermined, in danger of collapse. Bluntly, America is bankrupt, its bounty squandered. What??? The richest nation in the world is bankrupt??? Yes. America is rich, but its people are experiencing a relentless reduction in their standard of living. The Middle-Class are captives chained to a treadmill. Feverishly working harder, but never advancing forward. Daily falling further behind, poised on the brink of bankruptcy. America is ensnared in a subtle economic and ethical crisis. If not addressed; it will inevitably trigger an abrupt precipitous national decline.
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: Grim Economic Reality Follows:
[ .] An intentional, but not malicious, de-industrialization of America has transpired. An imperceptible, insidious dismemberment [a self-cannibalization] and exportation of our wealth. Our manufacturing base is being rendered impotent. Our capacity to produce goods nullified. Together with the potential for future prosperity. The truism of economics is: without domestic capital investment in manufacturing, the annual production of a larger "ECONOMIC PIE" is unachievable. This essential life blood of investment is being sucked dry. Less manufacturing creates less growth; consequently, a perilous reduction in prosperity. Incredibly, not only domestic investment, but also: our vast manufacturing capacity; intact means of production; entire plants and factories; complete industries - have been carelessly exported. This took America over years to create. Even US wealth in: technological knowledge and industrial trade secrets [research financed by US taxpayers] is rapidly vanishing. Similarly, component-parts industries vital to national security are dispatched abroad. All, thoughtlessly, shipped overseas. Most disheartening is the silence of elected officials and the media. The irresponsible, stubborn refusal to focus the limelight on this crucial issue. To elevate it, in public significance, to the level of scrutiny, deliberation and debate it warrants. For example, the appalling scarcity of legislative proposals to limit "irrational outsourcing" [of living-wage jobs] is a national scandal.
US generosity acknowledged no boundaries; as if, America's wealth was inexhaustible. The Marshall Plan was negligently permitted to drift into what presently is designated globalization.
Since the s the US Middle-Class aggregated vast wealth which was transported abroad, in "The Great Middle-Class Wealth Giveaway." Many nations prospered. [Europe, Japan Korea etc.] Communism's bloodless downfall liberated the world. However, this triumph extracted a terrible toll. Enfeebling US economic vitality. By conservative estimates, the US Middle-Class standard of living should have doubled; if not tripled. that did not occur. The reverse happened.
Furthermore, Globalization was nourished; escalated into feeding frenzy. Ergo, we are imperiled with the exponential exportation of America. Such irrational, unrestrained, frenzied Globalization is inherently flawed; buttressed by The Pseudo-Free Trade Doctrine. Yet, the US government and multinationals persist upon its proliferation. The Middle-Class is expected to do for China, India [and the third world], what it did for Europe et al. Providing easy market access to cheap foreign imports for American consumption.
HOW DID THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT? THE MARSHALL PLAN GONE MAD
THE WAL-MARTIZATION OF AMERICA A VICIOUS CATCH DANGERS OF PURCHASING IMPORTS
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN:
WAL-MART is the largest US retailer purchasing between $ - BILLION of China's exports. The U.S. annual China trade deficit exceeds a shocking $ billion. Continuing to grow exponentially as more U.S. and EU monopolies and small businesses madly rush to manufacture products in China - exploiting its slave-waged laborers. These goods are shipped to U.S. as imports. Produced at Chinese Prices, but sold at inflated American prices. Moreover, Wal-Mart demands suppliers charge "The China Price" - the cheapest, lowest price possible. This coercion forces suppliers to further invest overseas; exacerbating and quickening the exportation of America. The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing and living-wage jobs. Thereby, igniting more fuel to blazing globalization. In the process, ruining our economy.
We call this Catch - WAL-MARTIZATION which:
( .) nullifies the potential for future prosperity; ( .) fosters an obsessively-compulsive vicious cycle and circle; ( .) devastates our domestic businesses, The Middle-Class, our economy, national security and sovereignty.
WAL-MARTIZATION ensnares unwitting Americans into a Catch - "Win, but no win situation." Today, you get the lowest price, but eventually lose your job; either, to outsourcing, downsizing; or, being part-timed - probably without benefits. Imperceptibly, progressively you become impoverished. Inflation increases, your wages decrease. Your income reduces. You are forced to accept a lesser-paying job. A day arrives WHEN: you are unable to afford even Wal-Mart prices. You have slipped into the bottom % quintile of Americans - The Working Poor. Today, WALMARTIZATIONgives you the lowest, China price. However, what is the real cost? Bluntly, Americans buying cheap imports, purchase themselves out of good living-wage jobs. Reducing their families standard of living .
Angry White Males [AWM]
a
US Corporation are strangling US politics.
Politicians are eagerly dominated by corporate campaign contributions. Which, of course, Big Business earns from the taxpaying-consumer. All are familiar with "Playing The Game - The Score." "Either you go along; or, you do not get along." The Special Interests are certain the middle-class will never support public financing of elections. [Estimated cost a maximum of $ - Billion each major election cycle - in a $ . Trillion Budget. Go Figure?]. Thus, to be trite, The Rich get richer; as the Middle-Class gets poorer. The Poor simply get scared. Thus, the transfer of wealth from the middle-class to the wealth-class continues unimpeded. Best Recent Example: Pres. Bush's $ . Trillion tax giveaway to the rich. The primary causation of our enormous deficits - bankruptcy. Simultaneously, fiscal responsibility is demanded by TAKEAWAYS from Middle-Class and The Needy's Federal Programs. Manufactured fiscal crises use scare tactics to force unnecessary reforms of Social Security, Welfare etc. Of course, while claiming allegiance to Christian principles.
The more sinister side of WAL-MARTIZATION manipulates a fear-mongered frightened Middle-Class which is experiencing a reduced standard of living. Living-wages are constrained; or, in some cases drastically cut.
DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT.
To use technical economics terminology: buying imports ravages the crucial DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT. If you do not buy American-made goods, the dollars you spend on imports are shipped to foreign nations. Your dollars are recycled over and over generating and multiplying more wealth for in that foreign economy. You export prosperity to that foreign nation, at the expense of our economy. US consumers who buy imports commit ECONOMIC SUICIDE. Sales of American-made goods plummet, initiating the demise of our domestic industries; especially, small business. Therefore, either small business joins the mad rush to manufacturing overseas; or, they perish. Worse yet , daily, Wal-Mart, and others, grow in retail monopoly power. Building more stores in more U.S. towns. Which places local small retailers at an impossible price competitive disadvantage. In Monopoly [oligopoly] parlance designates this - LOWBALLING. Charging retail prices below your competitors cost. This unjustly devastates local retailers who cannot compete with The China Price. Thus, enormous numbers of efficient profitable small businesses are forced out of business.
COMPLETE OPEN ACCESS TO THE US MARKET FOREIGN NATIONS USE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES PREDATORY PRICING DUMPING = LOWBALLING DRIVES US BUSINESS BANKRUPT OR OVERSEAS
WHEN: WHEN:
The USA permitted foreign competitors unrestricted [open] access to our lucrative market. These foreign nations did not reciprocate. They disallowed, constrained, and thwarted equivalent access and entry to their markets. They created ingeniously barriers [unfair trade practices ] to US goods amounting to FOREIGN PROTECTIONISM.
Meanwhile, the same nations abused our generosity damaging our domestic markets; and, the entirety of the US economy. Foreign corporations attacked our underbelly. They lowball-priced American-made goods "dumping" cheap slave-waged imports; priced even below their cost.
Imperceptibly, one U.S. industry after another; either, failed; or, capitulated ("surrendered") substantial U.S. market share. Others were driven into bankruptcy, sometimes with the indignity of assets sold at auction for pennies on the dollar. Other threatened businesses , without any other option, simply sold assets and market share. Moreover, business owners blamed themselves for failure; unaware they were victims of illegal monopolistic frauds and scams. As a result, foreign nations secured dominant shares of one US market after another. Thereafter, they maintained monopolistic control continuing to sell cheap imports. They recovered their low-balling DUMPING LOSSES by inflating US prices. The consumer must pay the inflated monopoly price. No other competitive price exists.
Worse yet, this domestic predatory environment panics small businessmen from even considering starting new businesses. The odds of failure are stacked against them. The mere threat of predatory foreign competition annihilates new US domestic investment. The record is replete with examples of one new U.S. fledgling business after another - are snuffed out in infancy before gaining a foothold in US market share.
This unabated, systematic state of affairs leaves one alternative. Manufacturers are forced to export manufacturing - compelled to abandon the American economy. The USA no longer exports American-made goods. Instead, it exports manufacturing to produce goods by immorally exploiting slave-waged - even child labor. So, entire American industries are exported. The goods produced are shipped back to the US charged at American Prices.
The result? Bluntly, consumers do not buy expensive American-made goods. Therefore, American companies can no longer compete in the American economy. Remaining US. manufacturers barely survive. Finding American-made goods is becoming virtually impossible. However, the most disturbing fact is: US Small Business provides most new well-paying American jobs.
Yes. Domestic and foreign predatory pricing practices are illegal. They violate Federal and State Anti-Trust laws - and FTC regulations. But, these laws, are rarely, if ever, enforced by government. Why? You decide for yourself.
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE AN IDIOT TRADES GOODS WITHOUT RECEIVING ANYTHING IN RETURN
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN:
TRADE occurs WHEN: two parties do commerce. Buying and selling seeking the best bargain. A skilled negotiator contracts a profitable commercial or trade agreement. This is a "Quid Pro Quo." I give you this; and, in return, you give me that. This is known as doing business. The business of America is business. [Calvin Coolidge]
The same is true negotiating Foreign Trade Agreements. Each government makes, accepts or rejects offers to buy, sell, or exchange goods and services. They believe this will create WEALTH - prosperity for their country.
Historically, our bilateral /multilateral agreements were mutually beneficial. Usually, we made a profit, called a trade surplus. A loss is called a trade deficit. Trade deficits enraged our Founding Fathers. Heads rolled as treasonous accusations bellowed throughout The Land.
As unbelievable as it sounds, since the s, the intent of our bilateral/multilateral trade became distorted. Modern trade surpluses are no longer the goal. Today, THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE reigns unchallenged. The store is being given away; contrary to our constitutional command to provide for the General Welfare. Behind closed doors, our country's "representatives" enthusiastically contract away our wealth. All participants are assured a benefit; except us. We give and give, but we do not get. In return, we receive a bag of air.
Trade has transformed from a prosperous enterprise into a bankrupt foreign policy. Its new mission - to buy the allegiance of faithless allies. With grandiosity, we selected powder-puff allies who allegedly shared our ideals. As long as we paid. Benevolently we granted them Most-Favored-Nation-Status. Code words for an economic advantage damaging to our self-interest. Sure, I will be your friend and ally, if you pay me. Like lonely children, we tried to buy friends using toys as carrots. Only to discover fair-weathered friends are nowhere to be found during a raging storm.
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE
facilitated globalization. Passage of one disadvantageous, ill-advised, feigned-"FREE" TRADE agreement after another was applauded. This mindlessness persists to our unending misfortune. Illustrated by unsuccessful NAFTA, WTO; and, now CAFTA. Without reasonable restraint, we adamantly export our wealth. [See: The condition of our Merchant Marine.] No longer are we a viable trading nation, rather we transport our industrial base to our competitors. We are a buyer, no longer a seller nation. Soon nothing American-made will remain to be traded. That is not good business, because no business exists. Business is no longer the business of America; greed is. All is not well in "The Land of Bounty." She is deteriorating. As GM goes, so goes America. But, GM is losing its leading market share to the Japanese. Hello???
Satire and sarcasm aside, all this relentlessly ravaged US industry, business, labor; and, especially, the Great Taxpaying Middle-Class. Without objection, debate or deliberation by elected officials. Such malfeasance desecrates every sound principle of governance. It is time to reprimand such misconduct. Negligent elected officials, who sanctioned this, must be censured. If necessary, removed in disgrace. Why? We employ elected officials, compensated with our taxes, to protect our economic and financial best interests. Not to be Judas traders.
One economist observes, "We have lost our way! Current Globalization is the scatter-gun approach. The product of mindless scatter-brained people. Irrationally panicked Business is fleeing overseas - outsourcing and exporting The America, we so love. A short-term neurotic impulse, devoid of reason. Certain to cause precipitous economic degeneration - societal suicide." Ergo, we are entrapped. Confronting the grave predicament of impending fiscal and economic collapse within our lifetime.
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
no longer pass strict scrutiny. Bluntly. today, the global free trade paradigm is unscientific Pollyannaish pseudo-optimism bordering on the absurd . Therefore, we designate it with the prefix "pseudo." Our point is: this paradigm must be discarded. Replaced by a pragmatic, reciprocal enforceable and equitable new paradigm. Our suggestion, [presented only as an academic starting point] recommends what we term "Free- Fair-Mutually-Balanced Trade."
This paradigm must include three principles: ( ) free and unrestricted reciprocal access to the trading partners market. ( ) the trade agreement must be mutually-fair giving partners an equitable chance to achieve a wealth benefit. ( ) the agreement must be balanced. One party cannot possess leverage injurious the another's economic interest.
Mutual enforcement mechanisms must be created to achieve these ideals. We suggest three concepts:
( ) TRADE SUSPENSION - If trade between parties reaches an injurious imbalance (Triggering an unfair trade deficit), then trade is immediately but temporarily suspended. One Example of deficit imbalance is: the unacceptable unreasonable USA trade deficit [over $ Billion] with China.
( ) The suspension would activate mandatory renegotiation of the agreement.
( ) If and WHEN: an equitable readjustment and rebalance is achieved, then trade would resume.
At the heart of all trade agreements must be one unwavering principle - trust. Mutual trust based upon flexibility. To maintain international trade goodwill, all agreements must remain open-ended. Permitting equitably adjustments to meet the dictates of a changing global marketplace. Our primary objective is to reasonably stem the devastating effects of globalization. Which is ravaging on our wealth, national security and our middle-class. Nevertheless, we believe our recommendations go far toward creating global fair trade, peace and goodwill
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
OLIGARCHY AND IRREDENTISM
DICTATORSHIPS NOT THE PROBLEM OLIGARCHY IS OLIGARCHIC ELITISM OF BIRTH OPPOSES DEMOCRACY AND MERITOCRACY BY RESTRICTING FREE ENTERPRISE CAPITALISM
: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN:
Most importantly, our Founders formulated 'HOPE' for mankind - posterity. What we identify as The Middle-Class - The Have-Somes. Take HOPE away, and republican-democracy collapses. Democracy requires each generation's rededication to preserve it. Why? Because the oligarchy-monster lingers waiting to substitute itself to fill any vacuum. That caused by citizens' inaction or apathy - their failure to be civically responsible. It takes 'ETERNAL VIGILANCE' to conserve Liberty's gift. A perpetual alertness to oppose the relentless insistence of the powerful FEW to assume absolute control. To rule, not govern, the MANY. This is why Ben Franklin responded, 'A Republic; if you can keep it?' In WW II, the Nazis and Communists proved Democracy is a fragile flower effortlessly crushed under the jackboot. Do not confuse Oligarchy with THE ESTABLISHMENT. All are given a fair chance to achieve the America Dream. Meaning to become a member of the Middle-Class. The industrious - crème del a crème - who attain establishment-class status [by meritorious achievement] deserve their earned rewards.
Thus, conceptually, America offers everyone the opportunity to labor and profit in accordance with their personal industry. A citizen's prosperity is founded upon character, merit and hard work. You reap what you sow for yourself and family. No longer are the MANY to be exploited by enslavement to the benefited FEW. Ergo, America's years of wealth and prosperity. You are free! From poverty, to achieve The Middle-Class. From The Middle-Class, a chance of advancement into the wealth class. For all who were willing to work for it. This country is the wonderful gift you have inherited. But, do you appreciate it?
Tell me? Today. Are things the way I just described them? What is the potency of our Republican-Democracy? What about History's ever-present oligarchy-monster? Is it at our doorstep e day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Josep

[NOTE: this essay contains intentionally inserted repetition to acquaint those unfamiliar with economics and its practical - sometimes brutal -consequences. ]NAFTA Major Harm, Minor Good TO BE Fearsome NAFTA proponents are blameless; misled by fallacious arguments by more-fervent dominant proponents. The latter argued NAFTA would retain a vast amount of capital [US capital investment] on the North-American continent. This would offset MAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION to the third world. This faulty analysis is presently verified erroneous - tragically incorrect. NAFTA caused major harm and insignificant good. It played into the hands of the Mexican oligarchy. An unmeritorious inheritance aristocracy class. [Sorry, Faust] Thus, we exported vital industry and manufacturing; while the Mexican aristocracy greedily sucked-up US wealth. A disastrous blunder. Unearned benefits were reaped [raped] at expense of the Mexican People. No attempt was undertaken to improve their standard of living. More infuriating... As in the past, the arrogant oligarchy, as an exchange of trade, exported their oppressed population [smoldering impoverished masses]. Illegal immigrants flooded over our borders. Thus, as previously stated, the Middle-Class financed taxes to: export living-wage jobs by outsourcing; while importing illegal immigrants to driving down their wages. NAFTA, simultaneously, devastated the American and Mexico people!!! In all honesty, pseudo-free trade agreements represent no more than massive LEGALIZED THEFT. Contributing to incremental trade deficits; which the US maintains with all the world's nations. Herein resides the rub. Further wealth transfers are extracted from our middle-class and working-poor. Unfortunately, these taxpayer is twice burnt. Billed a second time. Required, by law, to bear illegal- immigration's financial burden. In the past, this was not a serious problem. However, today, with the Middle-Class's economic downgrading, ["downsizing?"] a brutal economic fact has emerged. The middle-class and working-poor are Tax Bankrupt - broke! The necessary wealth and taxes cannot be generated to absorb unrestrained illegal immigration. It is time for Santa to take a holiday!!! [It is too depressing. We will not consider the $ Billion US-to-Mexico loan-bailout to salvage US banks from collapse.] The western hemisphere must recognize pseudo-free trade is recipe for disaster. Such proposals are intellectually-fallacious inherently defective destined to end as NAFTA. The Secretly negotiated sham CAFTA is doomed to spectacular failure. Its stated goal cannot be achieved by ill-advised piecemeal trade diplomacy. It is misguided and unwise to negotiate with oligarchies which thrive by opposing their populations' economic survival. All that is gained is - ''INSTABILITY!" Not to mention the ethical and moral questions. The foolish pseudo-free trade doctrine and paradigm must be abandoned. A feasible, transparent comprehensive equitable solution must be found. Ross Perot was correct. A great sucking-sound of an economic disaster was heard post NAFTA passage. The only NAFTA success exception is Canada. Why is Canada an important example? Canadians' living-standard is equivalent to the USA. It represents an important element of this Site's suggested GRADUAL-GLOBALIZE proposal. Namely, The European Accords actualization as a necessary prerequisite to entry into The Common Market of the Americas.

To the contrary, FAST-TRACK advances negotiating secretive trade treaties. [NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA etc.] NO extensive debate, no amendments, are tolerated. Just a take-it-or-leave-it - UP OR DOWN vote. This nullifies our representative democracy. Crushes cherished ideals for which many gave their lives. An insult to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Who, in good faith, elected Congress and the President to represent their best economic interests. POLITICAL INSTABILITY: North, Central and South America Some observers contend, from Belize to Tierra del Forego, historically, oligarchic-aristocracies, in one form or another, dominated since the Conquistadors. Tenaciously retaining oppressive rule. . Unspeakable oppression.
Oligarchies' greedy FEW prey upon the ensnared powerless. Lives subsisted in virtual involuntary servitude - bordering on slavery? Breaking Poverty's bondage impossible These countries are notorious for inhumane treatment of their working population. Working conditions, worse than Mexico, far beyond the sweat shop. Particularly, including defenseless women or children. Child labor is paid slave-wages. [SEE: Labor Department Documents, stubbornly released, at the insistence of The Honorable Congressman Sander Levin.] Nevertheless, with modern communications [the internet], the oligarchies find it increasing difficult to suppress "the least of these." Almost all [perhaps, excluding Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic] survive in varying stages of instability. Beneath the surface generational anger simmers. Impending violence awaits detonation. Remember??? The recent Central American wars? Mayhem in El Salvador. Atrocities in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua. Madness in Panama? Unending suffering, agonizing poverty, are ingredients in this devil's brew. CAFTA represents ignited fuses on national powder-kegs. Its passage, along with FTAA, [and continued Fast-Track] will inflate POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Passage will solidify, exacerbate; eventually, explode the volcano. Spreading its toxic debris throughout Mexico, Central and South America; eventually, returning to the U.S. As the Philosopher says, "Never seek trouble, for trouble finds you soon enough."
WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD? NOTE: Remember Kathy Lee Gifford? Regarding Latin American obscene child slave-waged working conditions, Kathy bore little or no moral culpability. She was as much a victim as those victimized.] Nevertheless, the Gifford controversy exemplifies CAFTA'S further exploitation of child slave-waged labor. Incredibly, this is exactly what is transpiring in North, Central and South America. A major reason this Site vociferously opposes CAFTA; and, its subsequent evil twin FTAA. They epitomizes the depraved level such FAST-TRACK TRADE will reduce us. Kathy was unfairly accused and defamed. However, We, as a Nation, are well-cognizant of these misguided policies. The blunt truth is: We will be immorally complicit by allowing such malevolent trade agreements passage. CAFTA and FTAA transforms America into an active participant in the economic exploitation of the oppressed. Our silence as these are adopted, is equivalent to the wanton defilement of the under-classes of many nations. Creating an unspeakable national guilt. Rightfully, future generations will blame us. Chastising and indelibly marking us with infamy. Forever condemned as the worst of Hypocrites. Permitting our government to do to foreign children what we despised being done to our own? Why? Because, We, as citizens, are morally responsible for what our government does in our name. Where are the voices of the fundamentalists religionists? Where are their morally family values? We are intently listening, but hear only condemnatory silence. If CAFTA FTAA [and continued FAST TRACK TRADE] becomes the Law of our Land, then We can no longer innocently ask, WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD?
WHO IS OUR NEIGHBOR - MY BROTHER?
Cain cemented God's Wrath WHEN: The Father demanded to know, "Cain, where is your Brother Abel?" Cain arrogantly replied, "What? Am I now to be my Brother's Keeper?" God answered by severe punishment. In effect, Yes you are to be your brother's keeper, not murder him, and try to cover it up. Who did Jesus say our neighbor - our brother was. We are to be the Good Samaritan. All men and women are our brothers and sisters. Especially, WHEN: in need! All of us bonded as one in The Father's Family Of Creation. [A Creation still in Evolution, as science knows, this very moment.] Every soul on Earth [especially the people of North, Central and South America] is our neighbor - brother and sister. They are in need of our help, not our injury by CAFTA. Think! Has that not been our Nation's purpose from its inception? The City On The Hill. To be a good example to the World! Our democracy represents self-reform and self-correction. America learns from its mistakes. Publicly washes its dirty laundry in Washington. Then hangs it up clean for all the World to see. That is why we call it Washing Town! Hello??? We are Americans. Adoption of CAFTA is an unacceptable un-American standard. Within our hemisphere we upgrade, not downgrade, standards of living. Hello??? Is anyone listening??? We know The Father is

IS NAFTA-MATH BEING USED IN CHINA TRADE?
DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTS USED IN NATIONAL SECURITY There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!% @*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem. These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author]

HAVE WE FORGOTTEN WHO WE ARE?
We have forgot who we are! Americans are a nation of creative individuals and especially businessmen. We are builders, creators of shared wealth and prosperity founded on a meritocracy of individual effort. Supposedly, the harder you apply yourself - work - the greater your reward. We are not a nation of warriors!!! Constantly wasting our middle class wealth [taxes] policing the world. Although we must play our necessary part in keeping international peace. That must be secondary to the well-being of our citizens and nation. Obviously, FAST-TRACK AUTHORITY is unwise policy. Not the America way! Instead, logic dictates time has arrived for a comprehensive rethinking of the US economic paradigm.
Instead, a third U.S. realignment - rebirth – must occur. (Metamorphoses similar to post Revolutionary and Civil Wars.) Meaning: America must regroup its diffused economic strength concentrating it on rebuilding a st Century manufacturing base. Constructing "A st Century American Economic Renaissance." Regenerating defunct industries. A national and hemispheric revitalization - innovated by "A Year Technological Jump Forward." Until this is established as policy, the only pragmatic posture for average Americans is uncompromising OPPOSITION to unbridled FAST-TRACK A
******** CAFTA PASSAGE SAD DAY FOR AMERICA
July , ********
Eagerly, they searched for the devil to trade their souls. Finally, they located him. His name was CAFTA. House Republicans, with the support of Judas Democrats, at last advanced too far. They adopted CAFTA another un-free trade treaty.
Every time a Central American child ascends a garbage dump desperate for food and scraps to sell, Trillion Eons is affixed to their Hades sentence. The "Christian" GOP were championed by Committee Chair. Bill "The Blowhard" Thomas. [A pseudo-economist "par excel lance" with a corresponding opinion of himself.] The key unscrupulous work [twisting truth into falsity, and falsity into truth] was delegated to the self-aggrandizing Rep. E. Clay Shaw. Rather, the one-time major of Ft. Lauderdale. Preceding that: of exceptionally humble origins in N.E. Pennsylvania. A man who forgot from whence he came. One observer, "He's still got the coal dust under his nails."
No. E. Clay Shaw was not indicted by Oliver Stone in the J.F.K. assassination. No. The Thomas-Shaw malevolence is more fetid. The duplicitous betrayal of their fellow American's employment - JOBS!!!
The pompous Thomas-Shaw stampede of middle-class jobs into The Abyss secured them elitist Hades abodes. Their prearranged chores? For eternity, to transport cumbersome bundles of money used as sanitary paper for Hell's defecators.
Like Uncle Bubba's Mama says, "You see, Boys. In Hell, they're ain't nothing' to buy. Caus yaw already sold what ya had - yur soul."

TEDDY ROOSEVELT: A Honorable Conservative Busting The Pennsylvania Anthracite-Coalminers Strike The Breaker Boys = Child Labor Laws Our ethos, morals and ideals oppose enriching ourselves by abusing child slave-waged labor. In the early s, this was abundantly clarified. Teddy Roosevelt busted the Pennsylvania anthracite-coalminers strike. Although a politician, Teddy also was a man of character, honor and integrity. After secretive arrangements, he watched as sadistic mine-overseers hovered over - year olds with whips. Eagerly waiting to bludgeon them; quickening the work pace. These were enslaved Breaker Boys. After viewing their bloodied, broken, deformed hands, it is said, he wept. Hence, our Child Labor Law VIEWS OF OTHER PARTICIPANTS FOLLOW: Are we preaching, here? Damn, Right! "One day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Joseph LOSS OF THE MORAL HIGH GROUND WE HAVE LOST OUR WAY! CAFTA = FURTHER RUINATION OF OUR NATIONAL REPUTATION MORAL AND ETHICAL CROSSROADS We stand at MORAL AND ETHICAL crossroads. Confronted with a moral dividing line in our Nation’s history. Our predicament? We must decide who we are. We must choose. Which way will it be? United with our brothers and sisters of the American? Or, blindly joining in the out-of-control disarray caused by mad-rush globalization.CAFTA will forever destroy future U. S. claims to the high moral ground. CAFTA, NAFTA, FTAA and FAST-TRACK-TRADE raise the serious moral questions for each citizen? Not to mention other the ethical, moral and practical considerations. It will destroy any future GOODWILL with the PEOPLE OF THE AMERICAS! Inflicting further hardship on defenseless souls who looked to our democracy for hope. If I would not want to be oppressed, should I facilitate another’s oppression? If we are Christians, as so many claim, should we not want for others the good things we desire for ourselves? Either we are a Nation based Judeo-Christian ethos; or, we are not. If we ARE not, then we have lost our way. Blind hypocrites aimlessly wandering on the consumerism road to perdition and oblivion? Jesus warned while restating The Law of Karma. “What you sow; so shall you reap.” Sow an evil seed, reap a calamitous poisoned harvest. For what goes around, surely, comes around.

AN ILLUSTRATION: ARMED MINUTEMEN AT BORDER Unquestionably, ANGRY WHITE MALES = Alms have a justifiable case. They have suffered the most from rampant globalization - emasculation. Illegal immigration caused of unwise globalization aggravates AWMs anger and resentment. However, resolution of Angry White Males' predicament has become almost impossible. Why? Because a majority refuse to acknowledge its true causation. No disease is cured without knowing its cause. No comprehensive plan, new business paradigm in unison with the government, to solve AWM problem remains possible. Because they would probably oppose it against their financial interest. Why? Hate-mongering, right-wing radio demagogues have radicalized the AWMs. Psychologically manipulating AWMs a fallacious BLAME-GAME MENTALITY. The reinforced message is: "Let's blame the little impoverished oppressed Mexican guy forced to immigrate; not our corporate sponsors of this radio program." Hate and blame are easily marketed commodities. Avoidance of the hard new way - laborious research and thinking to find a solution is ignored. The venom-spewers well-know human nature loves blaming another for failure. This explains why, in the elections, most Americans voted against their best economic interest. This Site's position regarding the Minutemen guarding our border is, without question, they have a moral and legally justifiable position. Exercising their constitutional right to redress of Grievances; and to peaceably assemble and protest. However, by unwisely arming themselves they do a self-defeating disservice to the cause. An inherent intimidation is created by bearing weapons under theses circumstances. This is self-defeating. Like shooting oneself in the foot before a marathon. credibility and public support could be lost by one idiotic incident. Brains, not bullets, will solved this problem; or, it will remain unresolved.

WHAT IS OLIGARCHY?
A professor entered his first day History class. Silently he drew a pyramidal triangle of a two-tiered society declaring, "There is all of History. The top % are the king or dictator and the ruling class - aristocracy - the oligarchy. The remaining % is you and me - the slaves - THE HAVE-NOTS. This represents all of history until the English Civil War; and, especially, the American Revolution. Then he exited the class leaving the students dumbfounded.
The next day he entered the classroom and drew a three-tiered pyramidal triangle on the chalkboard exclaiming, "This represents all of history from the American Revolution to modern times." Again, he exited leaving the students flabbergasted.
On the third day he entered and rapidly began lecturing, "Now here are the details. From ancient times two-tier oligarchy society existed. Usually, the oligarchy consists of: the priests, the military, the police, aristocratic wealthy families. The ruling class. This establishment's primary conservative purpose is retention of the status quo at all costs.
Dictatorship is not the real world challenge. Yes. There is an allegedly all-powerful king, pharaoh or dictator. But without the oligarchy's support, he is a dead man. Every strongman needs the support of the ruling elitist class - the aristocrats - the oligarchy.
History's recurring dilemma, is this: the and the oppression of the MANY by the FEW.
Not government; but of the MANY by the FEW Oligarchy creates a two-tiered societal system without any opportunity for the MANY. Oligarchy is elitism. Usually, the oligarchs separate themselves from the HAVE-NOTS into exclusive organizations. Unaware and uninterested in the daily sufferings of the people. Oligarchs do not labor. Rather they perpetuates their economic self-interest as a matter of privilege. Wealth is based upon birth alone; not upon a persons character, hard work or meritorious achievement. The elitist class preys upon the weak; feeding off of the labors of the many. Who are paid at bare subsistence slave-wages. The FEW promoted their wealth by exploiting the poor. It is oppression. The control of "the mob." the have-nots. That's us - you and me. Sometimes referred to as The Great Unwashed.
As Alexander Hamilton called the People - THE BEAST. The oppressed are enslaved in a fixed system with no hope of advancement or fair share of the the national wealth
This Elitism is the enemy of democracy and republicanism. Privileged is retained by the ruthless of the MANY. Thus, Oligarchy endangers a society's peace. Eventually, conflict erupts. Usually, followed by murderous persecution. Order is maintained by the police; or, if needed the military.
SOLUTIONS SECTION
GENIUS OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS
CREATION OF REPUBLICAN-DEMOCRACY CREATING THE HAVE-SOMES = THE AMERICAN MIDDLE-CLASS
Our Founding Fathers' genius expressed itself in creation of a republican-democracy. This incorporated, restricted and restrained History's dangerous oligarchy. Republican-Democracy is a form of oligarchy; continuing many of its characteristics. Even so, The MANY elect The FEW. Whose political powers are temporary and dependant upon the MANY'S will and whim. We do not elect politicians to us. Rather the FEW are our servants - public servants! These representative oligarchs must advocate the best interests of the governed. Required to rank the people's interest supreme over all others. Especially, above the FEW powerful, vested, moneyed - special - interests. Retention in office rests firmly within the consent of the governed. Political control is secured in their hands. Thus, The MANY hold the ultimate tromp card. Withdrawing their consent in the next election; thereby removing the FEW. [The Professor illustrated this by a three-tiered upside-down pyramid.] This is America's political construction. It is patently obvious, political and economic power originates from the bottom - dominating the top. So, the people govern themselves through chosen representatives. This is why America is the world's greatest hope. A nation created not upon the rights of familial privilege, wealth, or pseudo divine right. To the contrary, upon a birthright of unalienable rights bestowed by the Creator. Our Republican-Democracy owes an enormous debt to the Enlightenment. During the Constitutional Convention, prominent Founders [who were Deists and Freemasons] espoused its principles. However, The Founders were unambiguous. America is not guaranteed perpetual existence. Rather, it is - A Great Risk - The Great Experiment. Containing the intrinsic capability to cause its disintegration. Thereby, negligently reverting to oligarchy.
How? Why?
Because democracy is exasperating deliberation - slow and inefficient. Government is institutionalized upon two RULES. The of Law - which is created by the free operation of the of Reason. Law is born of discordant, but reasoned debate. It promotes power-restriction by intentionally incorporating gridlock - checks and balances. Which means a state of confrontation and stalemate is typically created. Aggravating quarrelsome debate continues [ad nauseam] until reasonable compromise is achieved. Politicians are not intended to be accommodating. They are supposed to disagree, to protect our interest, without being disagreeable.
Why? Because ... Law, not the cult of personality or privilege, governs our Land. The law, in effect, determines WHO GETS, AND HOW MUCH. WHO PAYS AND WHO AVOIDS TAXES. We do not go to war. We tediously argue our differences - then vote. So, he who controls the lawmaking process, controls the nation. The Public [turned-off by the dreariness] does not understand this. It is contrary to human nature. Unrealistically, Humans impatiently demand instant results. The immediate outcome the dictator or king offers. Yes. The strongman presents you prompt results, then steals your freedom. In exchange, you receive a life of servitude to him and his eagerly supportive oligarchy.

Person arena, it’ s either “eat, or be eaten”! “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen”... because you might have your goose cooked! For the Yuppie who refuses to “play the game” by the rules of the gutter ends up in the guttermation is the name of the game! deals in “realities”, not lofty principles.
The Person who hungers and thirsts after righteousness and social justice eventually assassinates his own “SUCCESS”! He shoots himself in the foot. He becomes his own worst enemy because he plays the “unpopular”, losing game! always “SHREWD AND NONCOMMITTAL”! He plays his cards” close to his vest". Always keep your own counsel while you plot your hidden agenda! Be secretive. Never let people know what you’re “really” thinking!
. “ Shrewdness" Never take them” at their word”! means manipulating the other guy to declare his position and strategy. This gives you the opportunity to prepare your defenses using your enemy’s strategy against him. Constantly ask them well designed, crafty and subtle questions. Analyze their responses to determine the “real” truth. Watch their “body language”! It might “give them away”.Always “pick their brains” for information! Pretend to show an interest in what they’re doing. Get them to brag about their accomplishments, their methods of operation, and ideas. For by stealing another Person’s ideas you can escalate your career. You can take all the credit for yourself.Take everything they say “with a grain of salt”. Ask yourself these questions:” What does this guy ‘really’ mean?”, “What’s this guy’s game?”, “What’s he up to?”, “Who’s he trying .to kid?”, “Does this sound too good to be true?”, “Where’ s the downside?”, “How’s this going to affect me?”. You get the picture. For the Person who is deceived is soon defeated!
Always “PLAY DUMB AND NAIVE” around your fellow Persons” that a crafty Person can conquer his fellow Persons, and others! Hypocrisy’s gotten a “bad rap” through the centuries FROM!!! the Do-Gooders. But, the word “hypocrite” comes FROM!!! the Greek simply meaning “actor”. Besides, didn’t Shakespeare say, in effect, “The world’s a stage, and all who walk upon it but’ actors’ . “ . The truth is: “Everybody’s a hypocrite!”. Who are people trying to kid ... God? Everybody’s acting; trying to sell “their version” of the truth. The truth, of course, which benefits them! Never, but never, tell “THE WHOLE TRUTH”! For he who tells the partial --truth is stuck with defending it! For the Person, that’s a no win situation. People expect you to “support” the things you say you believe. only tell half-truths! WHEN: public officials cynical tell people exactly what they want to hear. Play on their prejudices, preconceived notions, and subjective opinions. You know, like the politicians do. How else can you manipulate people to act against their best interests fear mongering the paranoia mongering; WHEN: people consider remember. “PERSONAL IMAGE" impresses” people w” I" imperative” tos more important than silly things like “character and substance”;!
“Life” is “show biz”! The more show, the more business. Why do you think Lee Iacocca does his own TV commercials? T
always the author of his own script! If you’re acting out a script some other Person wrote, you’re finished. For you have lost control You’re no longer “directing” the play, you’re taking instructions. No Person ever became a great leader by being a dedicated follower!; the battlegroundVERY IMPORTANT:
If you must marry, always marry a fellow Person! Never marry beneath your station in life. Make sure your intended spouse has equal (or hopefully better) education, professional status, and “INCOME” as compared to yours!!! The artful Person never” gets snookered” into supporting anyone else. Remember... To a successful Person, life is not a two-way street, but rather a one-way street with traffic going only in his direction! If your foolishly going to walk the perilous road of marriage, you might as well” use it” to your best advantage. Make sure it enhances your financial position costing as little as possible!
Get your “intended” to pay half the wedding costs. If they want to get married that bad, they deserve to” pay”!
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have! = After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. WHEN: the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments WHEN: your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
: Never have “CHILDREN” unless your spouse “absolutely insists” upon it! !!If you have children, your spouse won’t have time “to spoil” you! Besides, raising children these’ days costs “BIG MONEY”. It takes two Person incomes to maintain a married Person lifestyle. Pregnancy will take your wife out of the job market leaving you without her income! “Three” can’t live as cheaply as two. Furthermore, children interfere with a Person’s career and social life. They steal your time, and “Time is money!”.
If you must have children, then have as few as possible like only one! The more children, the more the cost. The more the cost, the more your losses in investment income.
Always breed your children to be “Person Puppies”. A” Person Puppies” is a kid with your exact set of values. In other words, make sure the kid knows “the value of a buck”. You know, things like: “keeping two sets of books”, capital gains, accelerated depreciation, “padding expense accounts”, “setting up dummy corporations”, “how to file premature bankruptcy to shaft creditors”, “tax shelters”, etc.. You get the picture.
Constantly remind the kid of all the financial and career sacrifices you’re making on his behalf. In other words, put” a Person guilt trip” on him! Make the kid feel he “owes” you something in return. This way, WHEN: your re tired, the kid will feel obligated reimbursing you with some of his in come. It’s the only Person way to “break even”. This may seem a little crass. But remember, kids always break your heart. They never appreciate all you did for them. They never do what you want them to do. Instead, they always do what’s best for themselves!
Always push the chicks FROM!!! the nest as soon as possible! The sooner they learn to fly on their own, the more you’ll save!
If your kid telephones home “collect” crying because he or she was fired, asking to come home ”for a while” then it’s time to get alarmed’ They’re telling you they want to feed at your trough, once again, without paying the tab. Be sympathetic, but don’t be fooled. Make up some convincing excuse why they can’t come home. You know, like = “Your room in the basement was flooded during the last storm”, or “We discovered radon gas is leaking into our house FROM!!!
below the Earth”, or “Sorry, but we have no room. We had a fire and we’re remodeling.”. You get the picture. Don’t feel guilty about refusing the kid. Hey, who are we kidding? This is America! Everybody’s on their own. A Person can’t care for “NUMBER ONE”, if he’s caring for everyone else! Besides, if you were old and broke, you don’t think your kid would take you in his home and support you? It would be the old nursing home, or a one room, impoverished dungeon in Miami Beach. Out of sight is out of mind! Enough said.
The ingenious Person always “CRIES POOR”! Never let anyone, especially. our spouse and children, know how much money you have; i.e.; your true financial picture!!! It’s simple. If people think you have money, they’ll start hounding you. They’ll expect you to “give” them some. On the other hand, if people think you’re “POOR”, they won’t want to be bothered with you' WARNING! Always hide your monthly bank statements!
Ebenezer Scrooge had the right attitude, and should be your role model. That is, until he went “insane”, and “sold out” to the Do-Gooders. Remember ... The Christmas spirit is not for the mature Person! It’s for losers, failures and idiots who want to “feel better” because they “screwed up” their lives. Never give Christmas gifts except to your “business associates” who will help you profit in the year to come. The smart Person always knows “where his bread is buttered”. For, in the Person household, people eat his butter. But, in business, his Person “friends” the crime de la crime give him butter to consume.
Never Forget Person marriage is what you make it! work to your advantage! Make it
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have!
= After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. WHEN: the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments WHEN: your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
Person RULES HOW TO BE VICTORIOUS IN CORPORATE, PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL, POLITICS! AND OTHER CAREERS LIFE IS WARFARE!
The victor is never the vanquished! For it is by “victimizing” others the Person prevents the vanquishing of his career success!
Appearances are everything! Always present a neat, clean, well groomed, fashionable company appearance! “Personal image” and” form” reign supreme in Person Dom Remember... Packaging and marketing are always more important than the product inside!
A Person must maintain high, personal sanitation. Body odor, especially bad breath, is “the stench of failure”! It destroys “personal image”, and can ruin career success. In this area, follow all TV commercial instructions to the letter.
Always keep your hair length within company standards. Long hair is disastrous. Becoming known as “The Company Hippie” is career suicide. The Hippies went out of style in the’ s. These are the ‘ s “The Age Of The Persons”, not “The Age Of Aquarius”. Besides, in Person Dom, there’s no place for all that “peace love and brotherhood” nonsense. It’s the marketplace principles which count, not high-sounding, utopian ideals. The word “Utopia” is the Latin word for “Nowhere”. That’s where Persons end up, if they believe Hippie philosophy
Be as pretty or handsome as you can. If necessary, use plastic surgery. For it’s life’s “pretty people” who get to play all the starring roles. Ugly people are just extras in life’s “B Movies”. Never forget the Hebrew sage’s words, “Vanity, vanity, all’s vanity!”.
Always appear healthy, eager, energetic, even athletic! Never let company officials think you’re a potential “health risk”. No company ever promotes sick people. They “weed them out”! The last thing they want is someone “actually using” the medical benefits plan. Besides,” sickness” means” absenteeism”, and that costs the company “MONEY”! If they think you’re really “sick”, you’ll be absent forever because you won’t have a job! Keep any serious disease you might have a secret.
Never get “FAT’” It’s bad for your company image, and makes you a potential health risk. Obesity leads to high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes. Starve yourself, if necessary, but remain slim and trim “full of vig and vim”. Besides, you know what Person society thinks regarding “fat people”.
Never, but never, smoke at work! Companies now consider smoking an “addictive behavior”. Who knows, they might schedule you for “drug testing”. Your career might become the victim of the .test’s high margin for error. Besides, Person antismoker may soon start persecuting Person smokers as a means of advancing their careers. Beware of how much coffee you drink at work. Caffeine consumption may soon be considered “addictive behavior” als
Never be seen drinking alcohol by your fellow Persons. They’ pass rumors insinuating you’re “a drunk”. However, it’s all right to have a glass of wine at the Company Christmas Party. That’s expected. However, never yawn at work. They might think you’re hung over!
:A handy of thumb is this. Always do what the company “expects”, or you will soon become “suspected” by company officials. Remember... The company operates for its benefit, not yours! Once they feel you’re of no further value to them, you’re finished.
IMPORTANT: Always be a good company “CORPOID”! A “corpoid” is a company servant who’s willing to do “anything” to advance his career. He is obedient to his superiors satisfying their every whim. A ”corpoid” is an accomplished Person who unobtrusively informs his betters that his personal ethics will never interfere with the achievement of “corporate policy”. For the Person with scruples never enters “Corporate Paradise”. He’s the guy who never gets his personalized key to” The Executives’ Washroom”!
:Remember... A smart Person never gets caught committing White Collar Crime. However, Ivan Boesky has proven, beyond any doubt, that white collar crime does pay. The secret is in the numbers. It’s been estimated Boesky earned between $ and $ million. He paid a fine of $ million to the government, and got three years in a minimum security” prison”. With time off for good behavior, he could be paroled in one year. WHEN: he gets out, he’ll be worth between $ and $ million. Not a bad deal! It’s almost like the government paid him for turning state’s evidence. Never forget the Boesky/Person axiom, “The more you steal, the less your sentence will bet”. For we have two justice systems in America: one for Persons, an done for everyone else. If you don’t believe it, watch what happens WHEN: some “lower income group” guy knocks over his local bank for a couple thou’. It’s years maximum security with very little chance of parole. For, you see , “massive crime at the end of a pen” is not equal to” minimal crime at the point of a gun”. So, if you’re going to steal, steal big!
AM
Never, but never, be “DIFFERENT”! Always “conform” and “fit in” with the rest of the company’s Persons. Remember... The Elephant Man was different ... look how people treated him? In Person Dom, different people are treated differently; that is, “badly”! Enough said.
. Always be “PUNCTUAL”; especially at company meetings! For the early Person bird gets the worm while the late Person bird runs into snakes basking in the corporate sun!
. Always be “PREPARED”! The Person who doesn’t do his homework ends up wearing the company dunce cap. If you don’t know what’s going on, then fake it. Smile, and agree with everything that is said. But, never ask any questions. That will only demonstrate your ignorance Person Dom, Ignorance is not bliss, it’s a one-way ticket to unhappiness the unemployment line.
. Never show disinterest in anything your Person superiors say no matter how stupid or incompetent I You need their support to climb up the corporate ladder of success. If you don’t pretend to admire them, they won’t admire you. Let them know you painstakingly researched all their “excellent” proposals and ideas. Always lavishly (or slavishly) compliment them after their presentations. For the praise you give today is the praise you’ll receive tomorrow.
Be eternally vigilant regarding your company statements and conversations! or what you say could come back to haunt you. Silence, not discretion, is the better part of valor. For silence, not words, is golden. It can avoid many hassles. . For, you see, by your Person words you are acquitted, but also by your words you can be condemned! To put it another way, always speak vaguely and ambiguously. So, if your fellow Persons attack you later, you can defend yourself as being” misunderstood” because of their inherent lack of intelligence and competence. Get it? It’s not your fault that you’re a genius, and they’re so stupid.
If someone asks you a question you don’t want to answer, then drowned them in a sea of words and non sequiturs! They’ll become so bored with your nonsense, they’ll forget what they asked. Remember... Never answer questions which divulge your true position on important issues!
(See: ) AM
Never, but never, become a
“COMPANY HERO”! Why? Because ”pioneers and heroes get all the arrows”! The guys cowardly hiding out behind the fortress walls always have a better chance of survival. Career. success is based on survival, not valor. Besides, everybody wants a title shot at the Champ. Company heroes are constantly under pressure to outperform their last accomplishment. They make the tragic mistake known as “The Person Treadmill”. They have to keep walking faster just to keep up! For, you see, the mob loves its heroes, but immediately turns against them if they don’t constantly perform according to raised, higher expectations. In other words, today’s hero can quickly become tomorrow’s bum. If you don’t believe it, just ask a former sports hero. For, it’s Person human nature to say, “Hey, it’s not what you did yesterday, but what’re ya’ going to’ do for me today?”. As you can see, topping yesterday’s accomplishments is an impossible, losing game. It’s better to become just as incompetent as your fellow Persons until your” stab at power” comes. Remember... A moment of “corporate glory” does not guarantee Person job security! Yes, the bright, falling meteorite’s breathtakingly beautiful. However, its soon burns itself out, and is “gone forever”!
ON THE OTHER HAND,
never become a company “WALLFLOWER”! Timid and shy people never succeed. Instead, make sure you’re “seen, known, respected and admired” by all the company elite. Be “noticed”, but never make “a spectacle” of yourself. The” soft sell” is always better than the “hard sell” in Person self promotion technique. Pretend to have “an air of humility” about you. For no. one likes the arrogant, the cocky, the conceited. However, remember, the truly humble will never become the corporate exalted!
At the Company Christmas Party, try to get a seat near the head table. This will give you the best opportunity to socialize with the company Greats. If you want to become a Person Great, you must be seen with the Greats. Greatness has a way of rubbing off WHEN: one rubs shoulders with the Greats.
The talented Person strives to become a “CORPORATE MESSIAH”! A “corporate messiah” is a Person who has convinced everyone he has innate leadership skills. He’s full of corporate wisdom constantly motivating and “inspiring” his fellow Persons. In short, he has that magical quality... chrismal Corporate messiahs don’t do much, except talk, but they’re the first to be kicked up stairs. Why? Because anyone who can influence others to produce “MORE”, at the same cost, is of great value to the company.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The accomplished Person never admits he made a “COMPANY MISTAKE”! Never be the one left “taking the heat”! Always but always, find a way to blame mistakes on someone else!! Once you’ admit responsibility, they’ll punish the hell out of you. For the guy who makes the mistakes S the guy who’s fired. Remember? Richard Nixon admitted he made a mistake ... look what happened to him? Of course, he meant he made “the mistake of getting caught”. Nevertheless, a mistake is a mistake no matter the personal intent of the incompetent. For in Persondom there is no forgiveness. If you want forgiveness, make a good confession of your sins in church. But, at work, never admit you made a mistake. That’s considered first degree murder to career advancement.
. Never Forget... The Person sharks are constantly circling in the water, smelling for blood, just waiting to move in for the kill. Who, in his right mind, would give them an opportunity to have a “feeding frenzy”? It’s all a matter of Person self-preservation. The cunning Person is never the victim, he’s the victor
This next concept sounds a little indelicate, but it’s true. The only way to reach the pinnacle of corporate and professional success (i.e., “The Person Mountain Top”) is on the corpses of one’s fellow Persons! This sounds cruel and uncaring, but that’s life in the harsh realities of Persondom. Everything has a price which must be paid, even success! For it’s survival of the fittest. To the victor go the spoils! The Person who doesn’t “go for the jugular” loses in cutthroat competition.
If you’re caught “red-handed” making a mistake, always use the defenses of “PSYCHOLOGY AND MIND GAMES”! First, pretend to assume full responsibility for your actions. Then, sincerely but subtly, “MAKE EXCUSES”! Blame the whole thing on incompetent advice you received FROM!!!
Persons your boss hates. For it is by accusing others of incompetence, claiming innocence and involuntary ignorance, that one creates confusion shifting the blame to others. You know, like Ronald Reagan does all the time?
Remember! The best defense is a good offense! Putting others on the defensive forces them, not you, “to defend their actions”. They become intimidated and overwhelmed because they fear losing their jobs. Better them than you!
If that doesn’t work, then abandon your dignity and self-respect. Throw yourself on your boss s mercy; beg his forgiveness, grovel at his feet, play on his sympathies and sense of compassion. Also subtly remind him that your mistake might make him look bad, too. After all, he’s the one who hired you. He could be considered vicariously responsible. Such subtle blackmail is the best way to gain his conspiratorial complicity in a “cover-up”. Remember...It’s not who “makes the mistake” which is important, but rather who’ she “responsible” !
The best way to avoid “MISTAKES AND CRITICISM” is to do “NOTHING”! Never, but never, propose an original idea assume major responsibility, or make an important decision!!! You might be “wrong” or make a “mistake”. Let your fellow Persons, the overly ambitious “Glory Boys”, take all the risks. WHEN: they fail, you might be the only one left to promote
Remember...” Job security” is not accomplished by taking risks. Leave the risks to the entrepreneur types. Persons are businessmen, not “real capitalists”. The smart Person learns to feed off “created wealth”, not actually assuming the risks of creating “new wealth”. Besides, why should you be the one clinging to a life preserver in heavy corporate seas? So, keep your head out of the clouds, your feet on the ground, and your body behind your desk in your office. If you do nothing, then nothing can be blamed on you!
On the other hand, never be humble WHEN: there is a “CORPORATE SUCCESS”! Make sure you get your share of the credit, and thus “MORE”! For. the meek shall inherit: “career stagnation”, maybe demotion the menial tasks, and maybe the assembly line. “Lord, Have Mercy!”
Never take sides in a “COMPANY CONTROVERSY”! Always play both sides against the middle befriending each secretly! So , WHEN: one side wins, they’ll reward your loyalty. There is
If you’re forced to take sides, always support the prevailing, “majority” viewpoint! That is, to say, the obvious winners. No corporation or professional group ever fired a majority of its employees.
Never support an obvious loser even if he’s morally right and logically correct! You can’t spend ethics, righteousness and competence. For, it is who wins that counts, not who was right. Winning is the only line to take because it is the bottom line.
Never try to be “a peacemaker” in a company dispute! Peacemakers get caught in the conflict’s crossfire. You could become” the common enemy”. Both sides will merely blame you for trying to be helpful. Instead, let the combatants fight it out “to the death”. Later, you can move in and steal the booty... if you know what I mean? Never Forget . Self-preservation is the best self promotion. power to be found in duplicity.
And you preserve yourself by sacrificing others.
IMPORTANT: If another Company Person’s career is on the” DECLINE”, avoid him like “the plague”! To be seen in his presence, speaking with him, is the corporate “Kiss of Death”. Remember... Guilt by association is still guilt! The Guilty are soon prosecuted, convicted and punished.
WHEN: the ship’s sinking, the smart rats the first to “jump ship” finding another floating object which sustains preservation. Never, but never, let anyone take you down with them. Never hesitate to betray, deny and condemn a former “friend” wit conviction. For the Person who does not “cut his losses” at someone else’s expense, soon becomes the loser.
Never forget these paraphrased words of John Mitchell, “WHEN: the going gets tough, the tough get going”... right out the door leaving the other guy to take the heat! To put it another way, always leave the’ other guy holding the bag. Sharp Person wants to be the snake charmer, not the snake charmer’s assistant. You know, the guy who’s responsible for disposing of the( not) snakes in the bag. Think about it? Who went to jail in Watergate? Was it Nixon, or Haldeman and Erlichman?
On the other hand, always cultivate the “friendship” of “RISING Person STARS”! You know, fellow corpoids who are escalating up the ladder of success. By hitching your wagon to theirs, you’ll be dragged progressively upwards. If you’re seen with winners, people will think you’re a winner, too. It’s all a matter of “common sense”. Besides, if you’re crafty enough, one day, you might be able to steal some of their limelight for yourself.
WARNING: Always be cautious WHEN: picking your Corporate Person “friends”! If some company employee starts talking about “protecting the public interest”, or “doing the right thing”, avoid him like” The Bubonic Plague”! He’s guarantied immediate career decline, and ultimate failure! One day soon, he’ll be taking his meals at the nearest soup kitchen, not The Plaza Hotel. Besides, he’s probably a liberal, an environmentalist, a unionist, or a“pinko”.
Never Forget ...Anyone who’s not a conservative or a Republican is “suspect”! Joe McCarthy proved that in the ‘ s. Never be the guy who’s “patriotism is questioned”.
To protect your image, just to be safe, never register as a “DEMOCRAT”! Who knows WHEN: the next witch hunt will begin? Besides, being a “democrat” is corporate suicide! Persondom not interested in by the man the people but rather the of the man .by the few. “The Few”! of course, meaning “The Persons”! One. more thing, never, under any circumstances, be heard speaking adoringly about Jane Fonda. That guaranties “corporate capital punishment” !
THE DOCTRINE OF SELF-PRESERVATION:
If another Person “dares” to disagree with your opinions at a company meeting, smile... pretend to tolerate his viewpoint ... then make immediate, secret plans to destroy him. For, he or she is “the enemy”! An “enemy” is anyone who makes a Person “look bad”, or stands in the way his “SUCCESS”! A Person “friend” does not publicly challenge your opinions. Furthermore, if a Person is not your “friend”, you must automatically assume he’s your” enemy” . There’s no middle of the road in Persondom. They’re either for ya’ ,or against ya’!
If a group of Company Persons opposes you, the best strategy is” to divide them, and thereby conquer them”! Remember... People will do unspeakable evil in a group they would never do individually. But how does one “divide” them? Basically, by turning them against one another through any “pragmatic” means at hand! Once they’re alienated FROM!!! one another, their sense of “common purpose” is destroyed. Their spirit of joint ventured success, at your expense, vanishes making them no longer a threat. Then, they are at your mercy. Later, you can destroy them one by one at the appropriate time. For house divided can not long stand and endure! Since they chose to “hang around” in unison against you, they deserve to “hang separately”! This may sound a little evil, but we’re talking’ career survival, preservation and success, here. Person's is no philosophy for the fainthearted, the squeamish, the indecisive, or the Do-Gooders. ( Self-preservation is best accomplished by destroying one’s Person enemies!)
HOW TO EXTERMINATE A Person ENEMY: Never, but never, hesitate to use “malicious character assassination”, unfounded rumors, and vicious gossip to eradicate a Person enemy! Preferably of a sexual nature. For ridicule is the best method of destroying an enemy’s reputation. Once people are laughing and snickering behind a Person’s back, they’ll never take him seriously again. He’s history no longer a serious threat
Never attack a Person enemy with a frontal assault! That will only create “sympathy” among his” friends”. Remember what happened to Jerry Farwell WHEN: he tried to steal PTL FROM!!! Jim Baker with overt, personalized attacks??? They both lost! Instead, always use covert” guerrilla tactics”! Subtly bide your time... then, stab your enemy in the back WHEN: he least expects it, or is not looking. Start by mildly Criticizing his “minor” faults, failings and weaknesses. Infer your criticism is “well intentioned” , sincere concern for the company’s future, and your enemy’s career success. In other words, you’re not being malicious, you’re doing it” for his own good”. That’ll get the ball rolling the rumor mill turning.
Next, quietly start passing “filthy information” regarding the enemy’s “PERSONAL LIFE”. Swearing your coworkers to “confidentiality” guaranties the gossip will leak out immediately! Rumormongers love “confidential information”.
Annihilate your Person enemy’s financial stability and security That’ll really ravage him. For there is nothing a Person hates more than losing his or her money. Accomplish this any way possible. Here’s one suggestion. Phone in $ , . of contribution pledges to the TV evangelist... all in your enemy’s name! Lucky him! For, if a Person is being sued by others he’ll have less time and stamina “to do war” with you.
NOTE: Yes, all this might sound a little devious the product of a warped mentality but. who ever said Person life, warfare and politics was fair? Besides, it's a Person axiom, if you don’t exterminate your Person enemies, they’ll exterminate you!!! Enough said.
“Always be gracious victory over a Person enemy! For an enemy once burned will be twice shy”. He’ll think twice before opposing you again. Nevertheless, no one likes being a loser. Once an enemy ways an enemy You don’t think the Japanese and Germans have lovingly forgotten ;their defeat after; World War II
. There is a great PR advantage or the victorious Person who’s reputed as “a forgiver of his enemies”. People love people who love their enemy. People love forgivers with “a soft spot”, and “a heart of gold”. However, people do not love vicious retribution. So, do not hesitate, publicly forgive your Person enemy. Besides, you can always “get him” later WHEN: his guard is down. Now, for the “real Person truths” ...
The prudent Person never forgives those who hate him! There has never been a defeated Person who has been a good loser. A Person enemy will always try to get his revenge later. But, how does one prevent this?
Always, but always, “kick your enemy WHEN: he’s down for the count”! In other words, you must destroy him WHEN: he’s most vulnerable! If he has the opportunity to stand up and recuperate, he’ll soon be kicking you in revenge. Sympathy and compassion in Persondom breeds hostility and job term nation. Hey, we’re talking” ’war” here, not the etiquette at the Ladies’ Ice Cream Social.
Show no mercy! For, the Person who shows no mercy never has to ask for mercy! Treat your enemy the way you know he’d treat you... if he had the chance. Remember... It is the angry, unforgiving, and ruthless rogue elephant who’s always victorious not “the little mouse that roared”! A Person who fears trampling on others will, one day, be trampled upon. You don’t think ancient Persons like Julius Caesar, Alexander The Great, and Genghis Khan conquered the world by being “nice guys”, do you??? How much gold did Montezuma have after Cortez conquered the Aztecs? The Laws Of PersonISM are historical fact. One either plays by them, or one loses!
Always make sure your fellow Persons know you got your “REVENGE”! For Persons only fear those who are like them. They’ll never challenge you, once they know you “give no quarter” “take no prisoners”. The Person who does not retaliate through revenge soon becomes the victim of other Persons. For weakness and “the lack of vindictiveness” demonstrates “vulnerability” which only breeds another Person’s contempt. In Person Dom, compassion is considered “unmanly”! It’s not macho! A male or female Person without machismo is considered a wimp. And, wimps never get to be “Top Dog”.
Forget everything you learned in Sunday school! A Person must deal with the brutal realities of the success game. Life is “an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth”. If you don’t punish your enemy, you’ll end up blindsided and toothless. Why do you think the Mafia invented the concept of the vendetta? Because a Person who does not get his revenge is “without honor”! The world belongs to the ruthless, not the toothless To put it another way, he who is not callous will be victimized by the callous.
THE SECRET TO EVENTUAL SUCCESS AND POWER
Sucking-up and kissing-A.. of the powerful. It all begins with your “BOSS”! The Person who does what his boss does will, one day, become the boss. First, however, it is imperative a Person gets his boss" on his side”. For, the Person whose boss does not” sing his praises” never achieves SUCCESS AND POWER!! In other words, if the boss doesn’t like ya ’, the Board of Directors won’t either! Always stroke you boss’s ! Never miss a chance to be a sycophant: agree with his opinions in all things ... flatter and compliment him until it turns your stomach ... constantly remind him of his great intelligence ... laugh hysterically at all his jokes (no matter how stupid) ... tell. him he’s your mentor and guru, etc. I Like the people he likes, and hate the people he hates! In other words, be like. him in every way possible. You get the picture. Always ingratiate yourself with the boss’s wife! If you can’t, you .better, start looking for a new job. For, Hell hath no fury like a Person boss s wife who hates his underling! He might the office, but a Person wife who’s worth her salt rules his life ever miss a chance to compliment her beauty; especially her clothing and hair style. Oh, yes, always remember the birthday cards and the. Christmas presents. They’ll say, “Oh, you shouldn’t have ...”, but It's expected for all the boss is doing for your career.
HOW TO STEAL POWER FOR YOURSELF: First, never let people know you desire” POWER”! Make them believe “you just want to do your job”. In other words, you’re so busy with “business” you don’t have time for company “politics”. This will buy you time to prepare for the most opportune moment your “power grab” :Never show your cards until you have the winning hand. For example, at the annual stockholders’ meeting, never lead or participate in a corporate rebellion or takeover. That is, unless you’re positive you have the votes and proxies to “WIN”! For everybody hates a revolutionary who loses. However , if you have the votes, don’t hesitate. He who hesitates is lost. Strike while the iron’s hot. Let nothing stand in your way. If necessary, be brutal. Because no one relinquishes power happily. In the end, it has to be taken FROM!!! them. Never Forget... “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely”; except in your case, of course. Never get sentimental during or after power grab! Don’t let your old bosses and Person “friends” talk you out of it. Destroy anyone who stands in your way! Everybody’s expendable! Besides, the Person success struggle is difficult enough. You can’t afford to carry “dead weight” up the mountain top. Everyone who’s no longer of pragmatic value must” go”! Never Forget.” Many Persons are called, but few are chosen! The path to corporate and professional success is wide, but the door to the Board Room is narrow; and few there are who are seated within!!! On the other hand, the path to downward mobility: demotion, early retirement, and unemployment is even wider. The road is strewn with the bodies of former, noon- aggressive Person
Remember.
Once you “grab” power, never forget this maxim, “YOU EITHER USE IT (POWER), OR YOU LOSE IT!”! Never hesitate to intimidate your lesser! For it is by “meanness and fear” that the powerful Person maintains his “power”. Remember .. The company’s just packed with ambitious Persons like you. They can’t wait for their “shot” at you: to topple you FROM!!! “the mountain top of success”, to “steal your job”, to “grab power for themselves”. Always maintain a high state of “paranoia”! Trust no one! Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing! For, not everyone who smiles at you is your “friend”. Besides, the disheartening truth is, the man on top has no “friends”! Remember... The problem with “being on top” is that the only place left to go is “damn”! Think about it? “Down” means “losing your job, power and success”. If there’s no job, there’s no money. If there’s no money, there’s no power and status: no BMW and Mercedes SL, no company limo, no house in the country, no exclusive country club memberships, no “The Good Life”! Worse yet, if you get fired, you might have to get “a real job” that is; actually “work” like the masses do. Saints Preserve Us! So, always maintain “power” at any cost by any means Be especially wary of Persons with Harvard and Yale MBA degrees! To them, MBA does not mean “Master In Business Administration:’, but rather “Mean Business Advocate”! They’re the most dangerous Persons of all. . .Because they’re probably the kids of the “old money rich families n America. They’ve been playing and winning the Person’s game for hundreds of years. If you’re not careful they’ll. forewarned is forearmed..’
IMPORTANT: If you become “insecure”, indecisive, and plagued with doubt, do not worry, there is a solution. Follow this one simple rule, and you’ll never fail in Persondom. Ask yourself, “What would Richard Nixon, Nero, Judas, J.R. Ewing, Alexis Carrington, or Adolph Hitler do under these circumstances?”. Then, without hesitation, “do it”! Without question, this guaranties future Person success and power. MOST IMPORTANT: Never forget the essence of Person philosophy!” It ‘s every man for himself! It’s a jungle out there! It’s a dog-eat-dog world, a rat race, and I want to be King Rat, not the Underdog ! “THE ULTIMATE Person WARNING: He who is not the predator soon becomes the prey! For, it is Person “self-preservation, self-seeking, and self-interest” which is “The Highest Good”!
SOME RULES FOR Person PATRIOTS WAR means you have something more important to do with your life.
Like Dick Cheney... AND THOSE NEO-CONSERVATIVES Let someone else die, You have to plan the next war! If you die, think, who will plan the next war!
Always pretend to be “SUPER PATRIOTIC”! How? Cry during the national anthem. Energetically wave the flag during parades. Enthusiastically declare, at the top of your lungs, “America is NUMBER ONE!”. However, never “Buy American”. Instead, buy Japanese and European products. The quality’s about the same, but the latter have more Person” status value”
Never miss a chance to “wrap yourself in the flag”. Oliver North proved one could lie, cheat and do wrong with impunity. That is, if one wears an uniform claiming the wrong was done for love of country.
Always tell people how much you “love” America. However, pay your taxes begrudgingly. That is, of course, after you’ve taken advantage of your tax shelter. Besides, let’s face it, taxes are for the middleclass and masses. They’re the backbone of America, not you the upwardly mobile young professional. It’s their fault for not changing to become college graduates. Remember how the middleclass types “fooled around” in high school calling you “an egghead”,” a bookworm”, “a geek”, “a nerd” while you dedicated yourself to your studies? Now, who’s having the last laugh? Who’s paying the taxes? Always take all your business deductions. Write off as much of your personal lifestyle as you legally can. For, it is a given, the more taxes a Person pays, the less he has to spend on himself!!!
Always extol the virtues of “FREE ENTERPRISE”! Why? Because it is free enterprise which has made America great, not the Constitution or the freedoms listed in the Bill of Rights. For it is “economics" money), not liberty, which makes our country strong. It is “economics” which pays for all those nuclear weapons which protect us. “Freedom” only gives us the opportunity to “press the nuclear buttons”. Never trust peace marches, diplomatic negotiations and summits. It bombs that kill “the enemy”, not words! Always advocate the” Blessings of Free Enterprise” as the p’ answer to all the world’s problems. Of course, never hesitate to help your company destroy its competitors thereby monopolizing its market. For Free Enterprise means enterprise which is free for some but not for all. In other words, a competitor should not be given the freedom to steal your market share Never question the methodologies of Capitalism, no matter how cruel the outcome! If U.S. plants shut down moving their operations overseas, never publicly express your concern. It’s not your fault thousands of American workers lost their jobs. It’s only the operation of the free enterprise system culling out the unproductive and inefficient. Besides it’s all Labor’s fault for demanding an exorbitant wage for high school’ graduates. Never support government regulation of the private sector; unless, of course, it gives your company a competitive advantage in the marketplace. If you support “government regulation to protect the public interest”, you’re a dead Person! Your colleagues will think you’re a socialist, a Commie, or worse yet, a Democrat! Why ask for trouble? IMPORTANT: Always place the interests of your company before the interests of America!!! After all, the business of America is “BUSINESS”. What’s good for “BUSINESS” is good for America. Besides, let’s be honest, America’s on the decline. The signs are all-round us. The handwriting is on the wall. Remember... One day, America will pass away, however, The Multinational Corporate States Of The World will live on forever more! It’s the Person/CORPOID who shall inherit the Earth, not the patriots! The farsighted Person knows it’s time to make “friends” with the Japanese, Germans and Arabs. They’ll be taking over soon. Forewarned is forearmed! Never believe all that democracy “junk” the politicians are selling to the public It’s a myth a fiction. “Government of the people, by the people, for the people” does not exist. Public elected office, and the candidates, goes to the highest Person bidders through campaign contributions. Remember... The only worthwhile politician is the one who’s bought, and” stays bought”! For, today, democracy means, “Government of the people, by the politicians, for the Special Interests”! And, who are the Special Interests? The Persons!!! Do yourself a favor. Forget everything you learned in civics class! Always remember the “Person POLITICAL MOTTO”, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can take FROM!!! your country!” .And do unto to them, before they do unto you! VERY IMPORTANT: One knows he has achieved “Person SUCCESS” WHEN: he can utter these words with conviction, “I HAVE IT ALL! I’ve got mine, and the hell with everyone else!”, or “Yeah, it’s all the fauDISCONCERTING QUESTIONS

The Mega-international corporate monopolies are beginning gradual exportation of the American-created Tech Industry to foreign nations. Many white collar and blue collar workers we lose their living wage jobs. Moreover, the Mega-Multinationals will be importing foreign Tech professionals (under H visas) to replace American tech professionals at lower salaries. This is where we draw the line. Time to dig in and vociferously declare our opposition. After years( as College and University professors) spent retraining downsized US workers, we professors are not standing silently by and observing our efforts cast aside overboard for cheap foreign labor and corporate PROFITEERING!!!

'The Middleclass Advocate'' We take no delight in reporting the following appalling news: Liberals love their country, as much as if not more, than conservatives. Nevertheless the truth must be stated: Our recently concluded economic scrutiny of the Bush tax-giveaways for the RICH include demoralizing ramifications; almost too depressing - appalling to envisage. None of us could sleep after Reading the report. Bottom Line:
America is destined to be converted into a train-wrecked society. There exists no feasible fiscal methodology by which the American people can repay the conservatively projected deficits; and, exponentially increasing debt. Our Republican brothers and sisters, (those not true conservatives) predestined us bankrupts, with a massive economic depression inevitably to follow. No other unbiased monetary or fiscal conclusion can be reached.

For Instance:
"US Multinationals export slave-waged labor products back to the US market from their foreign factories. Maybe, the times has arrived, to charge all imports a franchise fee, a surcharge for granting them access to our market. If it was % the slave-wage cost, it would be equivalent to PUNITIVE TREBLE DAMAGES AWARDS for unfair trade practices in Anti-Trust cases. This fee cannot be passed-on in higher prices. Such, should be a crime. How to prove it? Thank God. We have mega-computers to trace costs of everything from production to retail prices on ALL IMPORTS." "The Law Professor"

The Economist reiterated for all: "THERE IS NO THERE, THERE! Future prosperity for America is non-existent. For the middle-class and poor - The People. Current DO-NOTHINGS equates to disaster. Like retraining people for fictitious future jobs. No longer do economists allude to an annual BIGGER AMERICAN PIE. There are no innovative industries deliberated; nor well-paying jobs even for the college educated. No transition to anything; except calamity. Then, a humiliating slow and painful demise. Resulting, in a drastically reduced standard of living and Third-Rate nation status. Believe me, this is not a trade or jobs issue. This is the very survival of: THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, THE MIDDLE-CLASS, THE AMERICAN DREAM - our way of life is in jeopardy! Without economic security, no future prosperity, there is no National Security. Terrorism threat pales in comparison. 'It's the economy, Stupid!'"
"Current GLOBALIZATION trends can no longer be ignored. If no immediate corrective is attempted, then the future belongs to other powers. In all probability, authoritarian Communist China will shortly the world. A monster, so to speak, of our creation. Remember, Tiananmen (sp) Square? In global polarity, the EU will achieve second place. Because? The EU's essence is, by definition, an active plan for future prosperity. The US - not a contender."
NO MORE TAKEAWAYS
"Furthermore, the time for TRUTH TELLING is here. To insist upon; and, if necessary, DEMAND the REFORMATION - NOT REVOLUTION - of America's economic paradigm. No more 'fast-tracked' pseudo-Free Trade agreements; without congressional debate! Prosperity must be America's impetus - not wars planting Liberty at rifle point. No more giveaways, of Middle-Class wealth, in pseudo-Free Trade; or, otherwise. No more, what I call, TAKEAWAYS. Such as, the President's alleged Social Security reform. In reality, a cancerous poison pill will be inserted in Social Security ending in its demise. Further bankrupting the nation. Hello??? Trillion in additional debt. Besides, does this not spark inter-generational warfare? Pitting children against parents and grandparents. Is not such rivalry the nastiest variety of demagoguery? Disingenuous political gaming of one generation against another?"
JESUS RE SOCIAL SECURITY
The Theologian: "Yes. No more TAKEAWAYS. It is one thing to believe in the Bible; quite another to actually live Jesus' Gospel Way. The Gospel, a condensation of the Bible, spells out The Way unambiguously! Hello??? As in, The Gospel Followers? If the President is a Christian, what about 'Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.' Are the young, who support this claptrap, disposed to financially sustain their impoverished parents. Jesus sternly criticized the hypocritical younger generation. Children did not provide for parents. They considered honor merely words. Saying good things about parents - but neglecting their necessities of life. Jesus was furious with the priests. They knew better. Instead, all preached and followed the letter; but, arrogantly defied the Law's - holy spirit and meaning. Jesus prophesied, in the end time, fathers would bitterly oppose sons - daughters against mothers. In FDR's day, it was the same. That is why Social Security was legislated!"
TIME???
The Economist: "The real problem is time.
The exponential skyrocketing of the escalation dilemma. The clock is ticking. Time is running out for America; especially, the Middle-Class. No more leisure to tarry. Neither can we wait upon others' myopic vision to catch up. Bluntly, America is rapidly reaching the point of no return. The concluding stages of mad-rush globalization upon us. We stand at the periphery of indescribable CATASTROPHES. A cataclysm looms. The negatives from which recovery to former prosperity becomes impossible."
The youthful Cynic quoted Dr. MILK, "Yeah. Why should we? If not us, who? If not now, WHEN: ? If you love your country, you love its people from which you came. You act in their best interests. Otherwise, YOU love only yourself, not your country. This issue has become a matter of conscience - conviction."
A classic moment of uncontrollable hysterical laughter erupted. Therefore: A COMPREHENSIVE REANALYSIS OF THE DEPRESSING PROBLEM FOLLOWS.
ONE ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF THE NATION What is The State of America's Economy? Has Our Time of Prosperity Passed? Can We Recapture Our Former Standard of Living?
AMERICA IS BANKRUPT?
What follows is a grim interpretation of America's dismal economic prospects. A disquieting portrayal of the nation's instability. Indisputable economic realities verify America's prosperity is facing its demise. Our economy is undermined, in danger of collapse. Bluntly, America is bankrupt, its bounty squandered. What??? The richest nation in the world is bankrupt??? Yes. America is rich, but its people are experiencing a relentless reduction in their standard of living. The Middle-Class are captives chained to a treadmill. Feverishly working harder, but never advancing forward. Daily falling further behind, poised on the brink of bankruptcy. America is ensnared in a subtle economic and ethical crisis. If not addressed; it will inevitably trigger an abrupt precipitous national decline.
[ .] An intentional, but not malicious, de-industrialization of America has transpired. An imperceptible, insidious dismemberment [a self-cannibalization] and exportation of our wealth. Our manufacturing base is being rendered impotent. Our capacity to produce goods nullified. Together with the potential for future prosperity. The truism of economics is: without domestic capital investment in manufacturing, the annual production of a larger "ECONOMIC PIE" is unachievable. This essential life blood of investment is being sucked dry. Less manufacturing creates less growth; consequently, a perilous reduction in prosperity. Incredibly, not only domestic investment, but also: our vast manufacturing capacity; intact means of production; entire plants and factories; complete industries - have been carelessly exported. This took America over years to create. Even US wealth in: technological knowledge and industrial trade secrets [research financed by US taxpayers] is rapidly vanishing. Similarly, component-parts industries vital to national security are dispatched abroad. All, thoughtlessly, shipped overseas. Most disheartening is the silence of elected officials and the media. The irresponsible, stubborn refusal to focus the limelight on this crucial issue. To elevate it, in public significance, to the level of scrutiny, deliberation and debate it warrants. For example, the appalling scarcity of legislative proposals to limit "irrational outsourcing" [of living-wage jobs] is a national scandal.
US generosity acknowledged no boundaries; as if, America's wealth was inexhaustible. The Marshall Plan was negligently permitted to drift into what presently is designated globalization.
Since the s the US Middle-Class aggregated vast wealth which was transported abroad, in "The Great Middle-Class Wealth Giveaway." Many nations prospered. [Europe, Japan Korea etc.] Communism's bloodless downfall liberated the world. However, this triumph extracted a terrible toll. Enfeebling US economic vitality. By conservative estimates, the US Middle-Class standard of living should have doubled; if not tripled. that did not occur. The reverse happened.
Furthermore, Globalization was nourished; escalated into feeding frenzy. Ergo, we are imperiled with the exponential exportation of America. Such irrational, unrestrained, frenzied Globalization is inherently flawed; buttressed by The Pseudo-Free Trade Doctrine. Yet, the US government and multinationals persist upon its proliferation. The Middle-Class is expected to do for China, India [and the third world], what it did for Europe et al. Providing easy market access to cheap foreign imports for American consumption.
HOW DID THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT? THE MARSHALL PLAN GONE MAD
THE WAL-MARTIZATION OF AMERICA A VICIOUS CATCH DANGERS OF PURCHASING IMPORTS
WAL-MART is the largest US retailer purchasing between $ - BILLION of China's exports. The U.S. annual China trade deficit exceeds a shocking $ billion. Continuing to grow exponentially as more U.S. and EU monopolies and small businesses madly rush to manufacture products in China - exploiting its slave-waged laborers. These goods are shipped to U.S. as imports. Produced at Chinese Prices, but sold at inflated American prices. Moreover, Wal-Mart demands suppliers charge "The China Price" - the cheapest, lowest price possible. This coercion forces suppliers to further invest overseas; exacerbating and quickening the exportation of America. The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing and living-wage jobs. Thereby, igniting more fuel to blazing globalization. In the process, ruining our economy.
We call this Catch - WAL-MARTIZATION which:
( .) nullifies the potential for future prosperity; ( .) fosters an obsessively-compulsive vicious cycle and circle; ( .) devastates our domestic businesses, The Middle-Class, our economy, national security and sovereignty.
WAL-MARTIZATION ensnares unwitting Americans into a Catch - "Win, but no win situation." Today, you get the lowest price, but eventually lose your job; either, to outsourcing, downsizing; or, being part-timed - probably without benefits. Imperceptibly, progressively you become impoverished. Inflation increases, your wages decrease. Your income reduces. You are forced to accept a lesser-paying job. A day arrives WHEN: you are unable to afford even Wal-Mart prices. You have slipped into the bottom % quintile of Americans - The Working Poor. Today, WALMARTIZATIONgives you the lowest, China price. However, what is the real cost? Bluntly, Americans buying cheap imports, purchase themselves out of good living-wage jobs. Reducing their families standard of living .
Angry White Males [AWM]
a
US Corporation are strangling US politics.
Politicians are eagerly dominated by corporate campaign contributions. Which, of course, Big Business earns from the taxpaying-consumer. All are familiar with "Playing The Game - The Score." "Either you go along; or, you do not get along." The Special Interests are certain the middle-class will never support public financing of elections. [Estimated cost a maximum of $ - Billion each major election cycle - in a $ . Trillion Budget. Go Figure?]. Thus, to be trite, The Rich get richer; as the Middle-Class gets poorer. The Poor simply get scared. Thus, the transfer of wealth from the middle-class to the wealth-class continues unimpeded. Best Recent Example: Pres. Bush's $ . Trillion tax giveaway to the rich. The primary causation of our enormous deficits - bankruptcy. Simultaneously, fiscal responsibility is demanded by TAKEAWAYS from Middle-Class and The Needy's Federal Programs. Manufactured fiscal crises use scare tactics to force unnecessary reforms of Social Security, Welfare etc. Of course, while claiming allegiance to Christian principles.
The more sinister side of WAL-MARTIZATION manipulates a fear-mongered frightened Middle-Class which is experiencing a reduced standard of living. Living-wages are constrained; or, in some cases drastically cut.
DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT.
To use technical economics terminology: buying imports ravages the crucial DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT. If you do not buy American-made goods, the dollars you spend on imports are shipped to foreign nations. Your dollars are recycled over and over generating and multiplying more wealth for in that foreign economy. You export prosperity to that foreign nation, at the expense of our economy. US consumers who buy imports commit ECONOMIC SUICIDE. Sales of American-made goods plummet, initiating the demise of our domestic industries; especially, small business. Therefore, either small business joins the mad rush to manufacturing overseas; or, they perish. Worse yet , daily, Wal-Mart, and others, grow in retail monopoly power. Building more stores in more U.S. towns. Which places local small retailers at an impossible price competitive disadvantage. In Monopoly [oligopoly] parlance designates this - LOWBALLING. Charging retail prices below your competitors cost. This unjustly devastates local retailers who cannot compete with The China Price. Thus, enormous numbers of efficient profitable small businesses are forced out of business.
COMPLETE OPEN ACCESS TO THE US MARKET FOREIGN NATIONS USE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES PREDATORY PRICING DUMPING = LOWBALLING DRIVES US BUSINESS BANKRUPT OR OVERSEAS
The USA permitted foreign competitors unrestricted [open] access to our lucrative market. These foreign nations did not reciprocate. They disallowed, constrained, and thwarted equivalent access and entry to their markets. They created ingeniously barriers [unfair trade practices ] to US goods amounting to FOREIGN PROTECTIONISM.
Meanwhile, the same nations abused our generosity damaging our domestic markets; and, the entirety of the US economy. Foreign corporations attacked our underbelly. They lowball-priced American-made goods "dumping" cheap slave-waged imports; priced even below their cost.
Imperceptibly, one U.S. industry after another; either, failed; or, capitulated ("surrendered") substantial U.S. market share. Others were driven into bankruptcy, sometimes with the indignity of assets sold at auction for pennies on the dollar. Other threatened businesses , without any other option, simply sold assets and market share. Moreover, business owners blamed themselves for failure; unaware they were victims of illegal monopolistic frauds and scams. As a result, foreign nations secured dominant shares of one US market after another. Thereafter, they maintained monopolistic control continuing to sell cheap imports. They recovered their low-balling DUMPING LOSSES by inflating US prices. The consumer must pay the inflated monopoly price. No other competitive price exists.
Worse yet, this domestic predatory environment panics small businessmen from even considering starting new businesses. The odds of failure are stacked against them. The mere threat of predatory foreign competition annihilates new US domestic investment. The record is replete with examples of one new U.S. fledgling business after another - are snuffed out in infancy before gaining a foothold in US market share.
This unabated, systematic state of affairs leaves one alternative. Manufacturers are forced to export manufacturing - compelled to abandon the American economy. The USA no longer exports American-made goods. Instead, it exports manufacturing to produce goods by immorally exploiting slave-waged - even child labor. So, entire American industries are exported. The goods produced are shipped back to the US charged at American Prices.
The result? Bluntly, consumers do not buy expensive American-made goods. Therefore, American companies can no longer compete in the American economy. Remaining US. manufacturers barely survive. Finding American-made goods is becoming virtually impossible. However, the most disturbing fact is: US Small Business provides most new well-paying American jobs.
Yes. Domestic and foreign predatory pricing practices are illegal. They violate Federal and State Anti-Trust laws - and FTC regulations. But, these laws, are rarely, if ever, enforced by government. Why? You decide for yourself.
TRADE occurs WHEN: two parties do commerce. Buying and selling seeking the best bargain. A skilled negotiator contracts a profitable commercial or trade agreement. This is a "Quid Pro Quo." I give you this; and, in return, you give me that. This is known as doing business. The business of America is business. [Calvin Coolidge]
The same is true negotiating Foreign Trade Agreements. Each government makes, accepts or rejects offers to buy, sell, or exchange goods and services. They believe this will create WEALTH - prosperity for their country.
Historically, our bilateral /multilateral agreements were mutually beneficial. Usually, we made a profit, called a trade surplus. A loss is called a trade deficit. Trade deficits enraged our Founding Fathers. Heads rolled as treasonous accusations bellowed throughout The Land.
As unbelievable as it sounds, since the s, the intent of our bilateral/multilateral trade became distorted. Modern trade surpluses are no longer the goal. Today, THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE reigns unchallenged. The store is being given away; contrary to our constitutional command to provide for the General Welfare. Behind closed doors, our country's "representatives" enthusiastically contract away our wealth. All participants are assured a benefit; except us. We give and give, but we do not get. In return, we receive a bag of air.
Trade has transformed from a prosperous enterprise into a bankrupt foreign policy. Its new mission - to buy the allegiance of faithless allies. With grandiosity, we selected powder-puff allies who allegedly shared our ideals. As long as we paid. Benevolently we granted them Most-Favored-Nation-Status. Code words for an economic advantage damaging to our self-interest. Sure, I will be your friend and ally, if you pay me. Like lonely children, we tried to buy friends using toys as carrots. Only to discover fair-weathered friends are nowhere to be found during a raging storm.
facilitated globalization. Passage of one disadvantageous, ill-advised, feigned-"FREE" TRADE agreement after another was applauded. This mindlessness persists to our unending misfortune. Illustrated by unsuccessful NAFTA, WTO; and, now CAFTA. Without reasonable restraint, we adamantly export our wealth. [See: The condition of our Merchant Marine.] No longer are we a viable trading nation, rather we transport our industrial base to our competitors. We are a buyer, no longer a seller nation. Soon nothing American-made will remain to be traded. That is not good business, because no business exists. Business is no longer the business of America; greed is. All is not well in "The Land of Bounty." She is deteriorating. As GM goes, so goes America. But, GM is losing its leading market share to the Japanese. Hello???
Satire and sarcasm aside, all this relentlessly ravaged US industry, business, labor; and, especially, the Great Taxpaying Middle-Class. Without objection, debate or deliberation by elected officials. Such malfeasance desecrates every sound principle of governance. It is time to reprimand such misconduct. Negligent elected officials, who sanctioned this, must be censured. If necessary, removed in disgrace. Why? We employ elected officials, compensated with our taxes, to protect our economic and financial best interests. Not to be Judas traders.
One economist observes, "We have lost our way! Current Globalization is the scatter-gun approach. The product of mindless scatter-brained people. Irrationally panicked Business is fleeing overseas - outsourcing and exporting The America, we so love. A short-term neurotic impulse, devoid of reason. Certain to cause precipitous economic degeneration - societal suicide." Ergo, we are entrapped. Confronting the grave predicament of impending fiscal and economic collapse within our lifetime.
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
no longer pass strict scrutiny. Bluntly. today, the global free trade paradigm is unscientific Pollyannaish pseudo-optimism bordering on the absurd . Therefore, we designate it with the prefix "pseudo." Our point is: this paradigm must be discarded. Replaced by a pragmatic, reciprocal enforceable and equitable new paradigm. Our suggestion, [presented only as an academic starting point] recommends what we term "Free- Fair-Mutually-Balanced Trade."
This paradigm must include three principles: ( ) free and unrestricted reciprocal access to the trading partners market. ( ) the trade agreement must be mutually-fair giving partners an equitable chance to achieve a wealth benefit. ( ) the agreement must be balanced. One party cannot possess leverage injurious the another's economic interest.
Mutual enforcement mechanisms must be created to achieve these ideals. We suggest three concepts:
( ) TRADE SUSPENSION - If trade between parties reaches an injurious imbalance (Triggering an unfair trade deficit), then trade is immediately but temporarily suspended. One Example of deficit imbalance is: the unacceptable unreasonable USA trade deficit [over $ Billion] with China.
( ) The suspension would activate mandatory renegotiation of the agreement.
( ) If and WHEN: an equitable readjustment and rebalance is achieved, then trade would resume.
At the heart of all trade agreements must be one unwavering principle - trust. Mutual trust based upon flexibility. To maintain international trade goodwill, all agreements must remain open-ended. Permitting equitably adjustments to meet the dictates of a changing global marketplace. Our primary objective is to reasonably stem the devastating effects of globalization. Which is ravaging on our wealth, national security and our middle-class. Nevertheless, we believe our recommendations go far toward creating global fair trade, peace and goodwill
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
OLIGARCHY AND IRREDENTISM
DICTATORSHIPS NOT THE PROBLEM OLIGARCHY IS OLIGARCHIC ELITISM OF BIRTH OPPOSES DEMOCRACY AND MERITOCRACY BY RESTRICTING FREE ENTERPRISE CAPITALISM
Most importantly, our Founders formulated 'HOPE' for mankind - posterity. What we identify as The Middle-Class - The Have-Somes. Take HOPE away, and republican-democracy collapses. Democracy requires each generation's rededication to preserve it. Why? Because the oligarchy-monster lingers waiting to substitute itself to fill any vacuum. That caused by citizens' inaction or apathy - their failure to be civically responsible. It takes 'ETERNAL VIGILANCE' to conserve Liberty's gift. A perpetual alertness to oppose the relentless insistence of the powerful FEW to assume absolute control. To rule, not govern, the MANY. This is why Ben Franklin responded, 'A Republic; if you can keep it?' In WW II, the Nazis and Communists proved Democracy is a fragile flower effortlessly crushed under the jackboot. Do not confuse Oligarchy with THE ESTABLISHMENT. All are given a fair chance to achieve the America Dream. Meaning to become a member of the Middle-Class. The industrious - crème del a crème - who attain establishment-class status [by meritorious achievement] deserve their earned rewards.
Thus, conceptually, America offers everyone the opportunity to labor and profit in accordance with their personal industry. A citizen's prosperity is founded upon character, merit and hard work. You reap what you sow for yourself and family. No longer are the MANY to be exploited by enslavement to the benefited FEW. Ergo, America's years of wealth and prosperity. You are free! From poverty, to achieve The Middle-Class. From The Middle-Class, a chance of advancement into the wealth class. For all who were willing to work for it. This country is the wonderful gift you have inherited. But, do you appreciate it?
Tell me? Today. Are things the way I just described them? What is the potency of our Republican-Democracy? What about History's ever-present oligarchy-monster? Is it at our doorstep?"

NAFTA = APPALLING EXAMPLE of ONE-WAY-STREET UN-FREE TRADE WITH MEXICOAfta' NAFTA Disasta' Debacle
[NOTE: this essay contains intentionally inserted repetition to acquaint those unfamiliar with economics and its practical - sometimes brutal -consequences. ]NAFTA Major Harm, Minor Good TO BE Fearsome NAFTA proponents are blameless; misled by fallacious arguments by more-fervent dominant proponents. The latter argued NAFTA would retain a vast amount of capital [US capital investment] on the North-American continent. This would offset MAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION to the third world. This faulty analysis is presently verified erroneous - tragically incorrect. NAFTA caused major harm and insignificant good. It played into the hands of the Mexican oligarchy. An unmeritorious inheritance aristocracy class. [Sorry, Faust] Thus, we exported vital industry and manufacturing; while the Mexican aristocracy greedily sucked-up US wealth. A disastrous blunder. Unearned benefits were reaped [raped] at expense of the Mexican People. No attempt was undertaken to improve their standard of living. More infuriating... As in the past, the arrogant oligarchy, as an exchange of trade, exported their oppressed population [smoldering impoverished masses]. Illegal immigrants flooded over our borders. Thus, as previously stated, the Middle-Class financed taxes to: export living-wage jobs by outsourcing; while importing illegal immigrants to driving down their wages. NAFTA, simultaneously, devastated the American and Mexico people!!! In all honesty, pseudo-free trade agreements represent no more than massive LEGALIZED THEFT. Contributing to incremental trade deficits; which the US maintains with all the world's nations. Herein resides the rub. Further wealth transfers are extracted from our middle-class and working-poor. Unfortunately, these taxpayer is twice burnt. Billed a second time. Required, by law, to bear illegal- immigration's financial burden. In the past, this was not a serious problem. However, today, with the Middle-Class's economic downgrading, ["downsizing?"] a brutal economic fact has emerged. The middle-class and working-poor are Tax Bankrupt - broke! The necessary wealth and taxes cannot be generated to absorb unrestrained illegal immigration. It is time for Santa to take a holiday!!! [It is too depressing. We will not consider the $ Billion US-to-Mexico loan-bailout to salvage US banks from collapse.] The western hemisphere must recognize pseudo-free trade is recipe for disaster. Such proposals are intellectually-fallacious inherently defective destined to end as NAFTA. The Secretly negotiated sham CAFTA is doomed to spectacular failure. Its stated goal cannot be achieved by ill-advised piecemeal trade diplomacy. It is misguided and unwise to negotiate with oligarchies which thrive by opposing their populations' economic survival. All that is gained is - ''INSTABILITY!" Not to mention the ethical and moral questions. The foolish pseudo-free trade doctrine and paradigm must be abandoned. A feasible, transparent comprehensive equitable solution must be found. Ross Perot was correct. A great sucking-sound of an economic disaster was heard post NAFTA passage. The only NAFTA success exception is Canada. Why is Canada an important example? Canadians' living-standard is equivalent to the USA. It represents an important element of this Site's suggested GRADUAL-GLOBALIZE proposal. Namely, The European Accords actualization as a necessary prerequisite to entry into The Common Market of the Americas.
WHAT IS IRREDENTISM?[$ . WORD] DANGERS OF IRREDENTISM: ONE CONSEQUENCE OF IRRATIONAL GLOBALIZATION PANDERING RADICAL IRREDENTISTS
FAST-TRACK-TRADE authority granted to the President by the Congress was a tragic mistake demanding REPEAL. FAST-TRACK conflicts with our Republican-Democracy. It nullifies our system and principles of government. Namely, creation of the OF LAW through the legislative processes of reasoned debate and compromise. To the contrary, FAST-TRACK advances negotiating secretive trade treaties. [NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA etc.] NO extensive debate, no amendments, are tolerated. Just a take-it-or-leave-it - UP OR DOWN vote. This nullifies our representative democracy. Crushes cherished ideals for which many gave their lives. An insult to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Who, in good faith, elected Congress and the President to represent their best economic interests. POLITICAL INSTABILITY: North, Central and South America Some observers contend, from Belize to Tierra del Forego, historically, oligarchic-aristocracies, in one form or another, dominated since the Conquistadors. Tenaciously retaining oppressive rule. . Unspeakable oppression.
Oligarchies' greedy FEW prey upon the ensnared powerless. Lives subsisted in virtual involuntary servitude - bordering on slavery? Breaking Poverty's bondage impossible These countries are notorious for inhumane treatment of their working population. Working conditions, worse than Mexico, far beyond the sweat shop. Particularly, including defenseless women or children. Child labor is paid slave-wages. [SEE: Labor Department Documents, stubbornly released, at the insistence of The Honorable Congressman Sander Levin.] Nevertheless, with modern communications [the internet], the oligarchies find it increasing difficult to suppress "the least of these." Almost all [perhaps, excluding Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic] survive in varying stages of instability. Beneath the surface generational anger simmers. Impending violence awaits detonation. Remember??? The recent Central American wars? Mayhem in El Salvador. Atrocities in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua. Madness in Panama? Unending suffering, agonizing poverty, are ingredients in this devil's brew. CAFTA represents ignited fuses on national powder-kegs. Its passage, along with FTAA, [and continued Fast-Track] will inflate POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Passage will solidify, exacerbate; eventually, explode the volcano. Spreading its toxic debris throughout Mexico, Central and South America; eventually, returning to the U.S. As the Philosopher says, "Never seek trouble, for trouble finds you soon enough." The Kathy Lee Gifford Controversy? WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD? NOTE: Remember Kathy Lee Gifford? Regarding Latin American obscene child slave-waged working conditions, Kathy bore little or no moral culpability. She was as much a victim as those victimized.] Nevertheless, the Gifford controversy exemplifies CAFTA'S further exploitation of child slave-waged labor. Incredibly, this is exactly what is transpiring in North, Central and South America. A major reason this Site vociferously opposes CAFTA; and, its subsequent evil twin FTAA. They epitomizes the depraved level such FAST-TRACK TRADE will reduce us. Kathy was unfairly accused and defamed. However, We, as a Nation, are well-cognizant of these misguided policies. The blunt truth is: We will be immorally complicit by allowing such malevolent trade agreements passage. CAFTA and FTAA transforms America into an active participant in the economic exploitation of the oppressed. Our silence as these are adopted, is equivalent to the wanton defilement of the under-classes of many nations. Creating an unspeakable national guilt. Rightfully, future generations will blame us. Chastising and indelibly marking us with infamy. Forever condemned as the worst of Hypocrites. Permitting our government to do to foreign children what we despised being done to our own? Why? Because, We, as citizens, are morally responsible for what our government does in our name. Where are the voices of the fundamentalists religionists? Where are their morally family values? We are intently listening, but hear only condemnatory silence. If CAFTA FTAA [and continued FAST TRACK TRADE] becomes the Law of our Land, then We can no longer innocently ask, WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD?
WHO IS OUR NEIGHBOR - MY BROTHER?
Cain cemented God's Wrath WHEN: The Father demanded to know, "Cain, where is your Brother Abel?" Cain arrogantly replied, "What? Am I now to be my Brother's Keeper?" God answered by severe punishment. In effect, Yes you are to be your brother's keeper, not murder him, and try to cover it up. Who did Jesus say our neighbor - our brother was. We are to be the Good Samaritan. All men and women are our brothers and sisters. Especially, WHEN: in need! All of us bonded as one in The Father's Family Of Creation. [A Creation still in Evolution, as science knows, this very moment.] Every soul on Earth [especially the people of North, Central and South America] is our neighbor - brother and sister. They are in need of our help, not our injury by CAFTA. Think! Has that not been our Nation's purpose from its inception? The City On The Hill. To be a good example to the World! Our democracy represents self-reform and self-correction. America learns from its mistakes. Publicly washes its dirty laundry in Washington. Then hangs it up clean for all the World to see. That is why we call it Washing Town! Hello??? We are Americans. Adoption of CAFTA is an unacceptable un-American standard. Within our hemisphere we upgrade, not downgrade, standards of living. Hello??? Is anyone listening??? We know The Father is
DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTS USED IN NATIONAL SECURITY There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!% @*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem. These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author]

The Mega-international corporate monopolies are beginning gradual exportation of the American-created Tech Industry to foreign nations. Many white collar and blue collar workers we lose their living wage jobs. Moreover, the Mega-Multinationals will be importing foreign Tech professionals (under H visas) to replace American tech professionals at lower salaries. This is where we draw the line. Time to dig in and vociferously declare our opposition. After years( as College and University professors) spent retraining downsized US workers, we professors are not standing silently by and observing our efforts cast aside overboard for cheap foreign labor and corporate PROFITEERING!!!

'The Middleclass Advocate'' We take no delight in reporting the following appalling news: Liberals love their country, as much as if not more, than conservatives. Nevertheless the truth must be stated: Our recently concluded economic scrutiny of the Bush tax-giveaways for the RICH include demoralizing ramifications; almost too depressing - appalling to envisage. None of us could sleep after Reading the report. Bottom Line:
America is destined to be converted into a train-wrecked society. There exists no feasible fiscal methodology by which the American people can repay the conservatively projected deficits; and, exponentially increasing debt. Our Republican brothers and sisters, (those not true conservatives) predestined us bankrupts, with a massive economic depression inevitably to follow. No other unbiased monetary or fiscal conclusion can be reached.

No whining, bellyaching, blaming or anger. Rather SOLUTIONS!
For Instance:
"US Multinationals export slave-waged labor products back to the US market from their foreign factories. Maybe, the times has arrived, to charge all imports a franchise fee, a surcharge for granting them access to our market. If it was % the slave-wage cost, it would be equivalent to PUNITIVE TREBLE DAMAGES AWARDS for unfair trade practices in Anti-Trust cases. This fee cannot be passed-on in higher prices. Such, should be a crime. How to prove it? Thank God. We have mega-computers to trace costs of everything from production to retail prices on ALL IMPORTS." "The Law Professor"
Millions of US JOBS HAVE BEEN EXPORTED TO SLAVE-WAGED LABOR NATIONS

EFFICIENT CORPORATIONS WERE VICIOUSLY DISMEMBERED BY GREEDY CORPORATE RAIDERS
EMPLOYEES WERE FORCED TO GIVE-BACK PORTIONS OF THEIR PAY

The Economist reiterated for all: "THERE IS NO THERE, THERE! Future prosperity for America is non-existent. For the middle-class and poor - The People. Current DO-NOTHINGS equates to disaster. Like retraining people for fictitious future jobs. No longer do economists allude to an annual BIGGER AMERICAN PIE. There are no innovative industries deliberated; nor well-paying jobs even for the college educated. No transition to anything; except calamity. Then, a humiliating slow and painful demise. Resulting, in a drastically reduced standard of living and Third-Rate nation status. Believe me, this is not a trade or jobs issue. This is the very survival of: THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, THE MIDDLE-CLASS, THE AMERICAN DREAM - our way of life is in jeopardy! Without economic security, no future prosperity, there is no National Security. Terrorism threat pales in comparison. 'It's the economy, Stupid!'"
"Current GLOBALIZATION trends can no longer be ignored. If no immediate corrective is attempted, then the future belongs to other powers. In all probability, authoritarian Communist China will shortly the world. A monster, so to speak, of our creation. Remember, Tiananmen (sp) Square? In global polarity, the EU will achieve second place. Because? The EU's essence is, by definition, an active plan for future prosperity. The US - not a contender."
NO MORE TAKEAWAYS
"Furthermore, the time for TRUTH TELLING is here. To insist upon; and, if necessary, DEMAND the REFORMATION - NOT REVOLUTION - of America's economic paradigm. No more 'fast-tracked' pseudo-Free Trade agreements; without congressional debate! Prosperity must be America's impetus - not wars planting Liberty at rifle point. No more giveaways, of Middle-Class wealth, in pseudo-Free Trade; or, otherwise. No more, what I call, TAKEAWAYS. Such as, the President's alleged Social Security reform. In reality, a cancerous poison pill will be inserted in Social Security ending in its demise. Further bankrupting the nation. Hello??? Trillion in additional debt. Besides, does this not spark inter-generational warfare? Pitting children against parents and grandparents. Is not such rivalry the nastiest variety of demagoguery? Disingenuous political gaming of one generation against another?"
JESUS RE SOCIAL SECURITY
The Theologian: "Yes. No more TAKEAWAYS. It is one thing to believe in the Bible; quite another to actually live Jesus' Gospel Way. The Gospel, a condensation of the Bible, spells out The Way unambiguously! Hello??? As in, The Gospel Followers? If the President is a Christian, what about 'Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.' Are the young, who support this claptrap, disposed to financially sustain their impoverished parents. Jesus sternly criticized the hypocritical younger generation. Children did not provide for parents. They considered honor merely words. Saying good things about parents - but neglecting their necessities of life. Jesus was furious with the priests. They knew better. Instead, all preached and followed the letter; but, arrogantly defied the Law's - holy spirit and meaning. Jesus prophesied, in the end time, fathers would bitterly oppose sons - daughters against mothers. In FDR's day, it was the same. That is why Social Security was legislated!"
TIME???
The Economist: "The real problem is time.
The exponential skyrocketing of the escalation dilemma. The clock is ticking. Time is running out for America; especially, the Middle-Class. No more leisure to tarry. Neither can we wait upon others' myopic vision to catch up. Bluntly, America is rapidly reaching the point of no return. The concluding stages of mad-rush globalization upon us. We stand at the periphery of indescribable CATASTROPHES. A cataclysm looms. The negatives from which recovery to former prosperity becomes impossible."
The youthful Cynic quoted Dr. MILK, "Yeah. Why should we? If not us, who? If not now, WHEN: ? If you love your country, you love its people from which you came. You act in their best interests. Otherwise, YOU love only yourself, not your country. This issue has become a matter of conscience - conviction."
A classic moment of uncontrollable hysterical laughter erupted. Therefore: A COMPREHENSIVE REANALYSIS OF THE DEPRESSING PROBLEM FOLLOWS.
ONE ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF THE NATION What is The State of America's Economy? Has Our Time of Prosperity Passed? Can We Recapture Our Former Standard of Living?
AMERICA IS BANKRUPT?
What follows is a grim interpretation of America's dismal economic prospects. A disquieting portrayal of the nation's instability. Indisputable economic realities verify America's prosperity is facing its demise. Our economy is undermined, in danger of collapse. Bluntly, America is bankrupt, its bounty squandered. What??? The richest nation in the world is bankrupt??? Yes. America is rich, but its people are experiencing a relentless reduction in their standard of living. The Middle-Class are captives chained to a treadmill. Feverishly working harder, but never advancing forward. Daily falling further behind, poised on the brink of bankruptcy. America is ensnared in a subtle economic and ethical crisis. If not addressed; it will inevitably trigger an abrupt precipitous national decline.
[ .] An intentional, but not malicious, de-industrialization of America has transpired. An imperceptible, insidious dismemberment [a self-cannibalization] and exportation of our wealth. Our manufacturing base is being rendered impotent. Our capacity to produce goods nullified. Together with the potential for future prosperity. The truism of economics is: without domestic capital investment in manufacturing, the annual production of a larger "ECONOMIC PIE" is unachievable. This essential life blood of investment is being sucked dry. Less manufacturing creates less growth; consequently, a perilous reduction in prosperity. Incredibly, not only domestic investment, but also: our vast manufacturing capacity; intact means of production; entire plants and factories; complete industries - have been carelessly exported. This took America over years to create. Even US wealth in: technological knowledge and industrial trade secrets [research financed by US taxpayers] is rapidly vanishing. Similarly, component-parts industries vital to national security are dispatched abroad. All, thoughtlessly, shipped overseas. Most disheartening is the silence of elected officials and the media. The irresponsible, stubborn refusal to focus the limelight on this crucial issue. To elevate it, in public significance, to the level of scrutiny, deliberation and debate it warrants. For example, the appalling scarcity of legislative proposals to limit "irrational outsourcing" [of living-wage jobs] is a national scandal.
US generosity acknowledged no boundaries; as if, America's wealth was inexhaustible. The Marshall Plan was negligently permitted to drift into what presently is designated globalization.
Since the s the US Middle-Class aggregated vast wealth which was transported abroad, in "The Great Middle-Class Wealth Giveaway." Many nations prospered. [Europe, Japan Korea etc.] Communism's bloodless downfall liberated the world. However, this triumph extracted a terrible toll. Enfeebling US economic vitality. By conservative estimates, the US Middle-Class standard of living should have doubled; if not tripled. that did not occur. The reverse happened.
Furthermore, Globalization was nourished; escalated into feeding frenzy. Ergo, we are imperiled with the exponential exportation of America. Such irrational, unrestrained, frenzied Globalization is inherently flawed; buttressed by The Pseudo-Free Trade Doctrine. Yet, the US government and multinationals persist upon its proliferation. The Middle-Class is expected to do for China, India [and the third world], what it did for Europe et al. Providing easy market access to cheap foreign imports for American consumption.
HOW DID THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT? THE MARSHALL PLAN GONE MAD
THE WAL-MARTIZATION OF AMERICA A VICIOUS CATCH DANGERS OF PURCHASING IMPORTS
WAL-MART is the largest US retailer purchasing between $ - BILLION of China's exports. The U.S. annual China trade deficit exceeds a shocking $ billion. Continuing to grow exponentially as more U.S. and EU monopolies and small businesses madly rush to manufacture products in China - exploiting its slave-waged laborers. These goods are shipped to U.S. as imports. Produced at Chinese Prices, but sold at inflated American prices. Moreover, Wal-Mart demands suppliers charge "The China Price" - the cheapest, lowest price possible. This coercion forces suppliers to further invest overseas; exacerbating and quickening the exportation of America. The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing and living-wage jobs. Thereby, igniting more fuel to blazing globalization. In the process, ruining our economy.
We call this Catch - WAL-MARTIZATION which:
( .) nullifies the potential for future prosperity; ( .) fosters an obsessively-compulsive vicious cycle and circle; ( .) devastates our domestic businesses, The Middle-Class, our economy, national security and sovereignty.
WAL-MARTIZATION ensnares unwitting Americans into a Catch - "Win, but no win situation." Today, you get the lowest price, but eventually lose your job; either, to outsourcing, downsizing; or, being part-timed - probably without benefits. Imperceptibly, progressively you become impoverished. Inflation increases, your wages decrease. Your income reduces. You are forced to accept a lesser-paying job. A day arrives WHEN: you are unable to afford even Wal-Mart prices. You have slipped into the bottom % quintile of Americans - The Working Poor. Today, WALMARTIZATIONgives you the lowest, China price. However, what is the real cost? Bluntly, Americans buying cheap imports, purchase themselves out of good living-wage jobs. Reducing their families standard of living .
Angry White Males [AWM]
a
US Corporation are strangling US politics.
Politicians are eagerly dominated by corporate campaign contributions. Which, of course, Big Business earns from the taxpaying-consumer. All are familiar with "Playing The Game - The Score." "Either you go along; or, you do not get along." The Special Interests are certain the middle-class will never support public financing of elections. [Estimated cost a maximum of $ - Billion each major election cycle - in a $ . Trillion Budget. Go Figure?]. Thus, to be trite, The Rich get richer; as the Middle-Class gets poorer. The Poor simply get scared. Thus, the transfer of wealth from the middle-class to the wealth-class continues unimpeded. Best Recent Example: Pres. Bush's $ . Trillion tax giveaway to the rich. The primary causation of our enormous deficits - bankruptcy. Simultaneously, fiscal responsibility is demanded by TAKEAWAYS from Middle-Class and The Needy's Federal Programs. Manufactured fiscal crises use scare tactics to force unnecessary reforms of Social Security, Welfare etc. Of course, while claiming allegiance to Christian principles.
The more sinister side of WAL-MARTIZATION manipulates a fear-mongered frightened Middle-Class which is experiencing a reduced standard of living. Living-wages are constrained; or, in some cases drastically cut.
DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT.
To use technical economics terminology: buying imports ravages the crucial DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT. If you do not buy American-made goods, the dollars you spend on imports are shipped to foreign nations. Your dollars are recycled over and over generating and multiplying more wealth for in that foreign economy. You export prosperity to that foreign nation, at the expense of our economy. US consumers who buy imports commit ECONOMIC SUICIDE. Sales of American-made goods plummet, initiating the demise of our domestic industries; especially, small business. Therefore, either small business joins the mad rush to manufacturing overseas; or, they perish. Worse yet , daily, Wal-Mart, and others, grow in retail monopoly power. Building more stores in more U.S. towns. Which places local small retailers at an impossible price competitive disadvantage. In Monopoly [oligopoly] parlance designates this - LOWBALLING. Charging retail prices below your competitors cost. This unjustly devastates local retailers who cannot compete with The China Price. Thus, enormous numbers of efficient profitable small businesses are forced out of business.
COMPLETE OPEN ACCESS TO THE US MARKET FOREIGN NATIONS USE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES PREDATORY PRICING DUMPING = LOWBALLING DRIVES US BUSINESS BANKRUPT OR OVERSEAS
The USA permitted foreign competitors unrestricted [open] access to our lucrative market. These foreign nations did not reciprocate. They disallowed, constrained, and thwarted equivalent access and entry to their markets. They created ingeniously barriers [unfair trade practices ] to US goods amounting to FOREIGN PROTECTIONISM.
Meanwhile, the same nations abused our generosity damaging our domestic markets; and, the entirety of the US economy. Foreign corporations attacked our underbelly. They lowball-priced American-made goods "dumping" cheap slave-waged imports; priced even below their cost.
Imperceptibly, one U.S. industry after another; either, failed; or, capitulated ("surrendered") substantial U.S. market share. Others were driven into bankruptcy, sometimes with the indignity of assets sold at auction for pennies on the dollar. Other threatened businesses , without any other option, simply sold assets and market share. Moreover, business owners blamed themselves for failure; unaware they were victims of illegal monopolistic frauds and scams. As a result, foreign nations secured dominant shares of one US market after another. Thereafter, they maintained monopolistic control continuing to sell cheap imports. They recovered their low-balling DUMPING LOSSES by inflating US prices. The consumer must pay the inflated monopoly price. No other competitive price exists.
Worse yet, this domestic predatory environment panics small businessmen from even considering starting new businesses. The odds of failure are stacked against them. The mere threat of predatory foreign competition annihilates new US domestic investment. The record is replete with examples of one new U.S. fledgling business after another - are snuffed out in infancy before gaining a foothold in US market share.
This unabated, systematic state of affairs leaves one alternative. Manufacturers are forced to export manufacturing - compelled to abandon the American economy. The USA no longer exports American-made goods. Instead, it exports manufacturing to produce goods by immorally exploiting slave-waged - even child labor. So, entire American industries are exported. The goods produced are shipped back to the US charged at American Prices.
The result? Bluntly, consumers do not buy expensive American-made goods. Therefore, American companies can no longer compete in the American economy. Remaining US. manufacturers barely survive. Finding American-made goods is becoming virtually impossible. However, the most disturbing fact is: US Small Business provides most new well-paying American jobs.
Yes. Domestic and foreign predatory pricing practices are illegal. They violate Federal and State Anti-Trust laws - and FTC regulations. But, these laws, are rarely, if ever, enforced by government. Why? You decide for yourself.
TRADE occurs WHEN: two parties do commerce. Buying and selling seeking the best bargain. A skilled negotiator contracts a profitable commercial or trade agreement. This is a "Quid Pro Quo." I give you this; and, in return, you give me that. This is known as doing business. The business of America is business. [Calvin Coolidge]
The same is true negotiating Foreign Trade Agreements. Each government makes, accepts or rejects offers to buy, sell, or exchange goods and services. They believe this will create WEALTH - prosperity for their country.
Historically, our bilateral /multilateral agreements were mutually beneficial. Usually, we made a profit, called a trade surplus. A loss is called a trade deficit. Trade deficits enraged our Founding Fathers. Heads rolled as treasonous accusations bellowed throughout The Land.
As unbelievable as it sounds, since the s, the intent of our bilateral/multilateral trade became distorted. Modern trade surpluses are no longer the goal. Today, THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE reigns unchallenged. The store is being given away; contrary to our constitutional command to provide for the General Welfare. Behind closed doors, our country's "representatives" enthusiastically contract away our wealth. All participants are assured a benefit; except us. We give and give, but we do not get. In return, we receive a bag of air.
Trade has transformed from a prosperous enterprise into a bankrupt foreign policy. Its new mission - to buy the allegiance of faithless allies. With grandiosity, we selected powder-puff allies who allegedly shared our ideals. As long as we paid. Benevolently we granted them Most-Favored-Nation-Status. Code words for an economic advantage damaging to our self-interest. Sure, I will be your friend and ally, if you pay me. Like lonely children, we tried to buy friends using toys as carrots. Only to discover fair-weathered friends are nowhere to be found during a raging storm.
facilitated globalization. Passage of one disadvantageous, ill-advised, feigned-"FREE" TRADE agreement after another was applauded. This mindlessness persists to our unending misfortune. Illustrated by unsuccessful NAFTA, WTO; and, now CAFTA. Without reasonable restraint, we adamantly export our wealth. [See: The condition of our Merchant Marine.] No longer are we a viable trading nation, rather we transport our industrial base to our competitors. We are a buyer, no longer a seller nation. Soon nothing American-made will remain to be traded. That is not good business, because no business exists. Business is no longer the business of America; greed is. All is not well in "The Land of Bounty." She is deteriorating. As GM goes, so goes America. But, GM is losing its leading market share to the Japanese. Hello???
Satire and sarcasm aside, all this relentlessly ravaged US industry, business, labor; and, especially, the Great Taxpaying Middle-Class. Without objection, debate or deliberation by elected officials. Such malfeasance desecrates every sound principle of governance. It is time to reprimand such misconduct. Negligent elected officials, who sanctioned this, must be censured. If necessary, removed in disgrace. Why? We employ elected officials, compensated with our taxes, to protect our economic and financial best interests. Not to be Judas traders.
One economist observes, "We have lost our way! Current Globalization is the scatter-gun approach. The product of mindless scatter-brained people. Irrationally panicked Business is fleeing overseas - outsourcing and exporting The America, we so love. A short-term neurotic impulse, devoid of reason. Certain to cause precipitous economic degeneration - societal suicide." Ergo, we are entrapped. Confronting the grave predicament of impending fiscal and economic collapse within our lifetime.
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
no longer pass strict scrutiny. Bluntly. today, the global free trade paradigm is unscientific Pollyannaish pseudo-optimism bordering on the absurd . Therefore, we designate it with the prefix "pseudo." Our point is: this paradigm must be discarded. Replaced by a pragmatic, reciprocal enforceable and equitable new paradigm. Our suggestion, [presented only as an academic starting point] recommends what we term "Free- Fair-Mutually-Balanced Trade."
This paradigm must include three principles: ( ) free and unrestricted reciprocal access to the trading partners market. ( ) the trade agreement must be mutually-fair giving partners an equitable chance to achieve a wealth benefit. ( ) the agreement must be balanced. One party cannot possess leverage injurious the another's economic interest.
Mutual enforcement mechanisms must be created to achieve these ideals. We suggest three concepts:
( ) TRADE SUSPENSION - If trade between parties reaches an injurious imbalance (Triggering an unfair trade deficit), then trade is immediately but temporarily suspended. One Example of deficit imbalance is: the unacceptable unreasonable USA trade deficit [over $ Billion] with China.
( ) The suspension would activate mandatory renegotiation of the agreement.
( ) If and WHEN: an equitable readjustment and rebalance is achieved, then trade would resume.
At the heart of all trade agreements must be one unwavering principle - trust. Mutual trust based upon flexibility. To maintain international trade goodwill, all agreements must remain open-ended. Permitting equitably adjustments to meet the dictates of a changing global marketplace. Our primary objective is to reasonably stem the devastating effects of globalization. Which is ravaging on our wealth, national security and our middle-class. Nevertheless, we believe our recommendations go far toward creating global fair trade, peace and goodwill
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
OLIGARCHY AND IRREDENTISM
DICTATORSHIPS NOT THE PROBLEM OLIGARCHY IS OLIGARCHIC ELITISM OF BIRTH OPPOSES DEMOCRACY AND MERITOCRACY BY RESTRICTING FREE ENTERPRISE CAPITALISM
Most importantly, our Founders formulated 'HOPE' for mankind - posterity. What we identify as The Middle-Class - The Have-Somes. Take HOPE away, and republican-democracy collapses. Democracy requires each generation's rededication to preserve it. Why? Because the oligarchy-monster lingers waiting to substitute itself to fill any vacuum. That caused by citizens' inaction or apathy - their failure to be civically responsible. It takes 'ETERNAL VIGILANCE' to conserve Liberty's gift. A perpetual alertness to oppose the relentless insistence of the powerful FEW to assume absolute control. To rule, not govern, the MANY. This is why Ben Franklin responded, 'A Republic; if you can keep it?' In WW II, the Nazis and Communists proved Democracy is a fragile flower effortlessly crushed under the jackboot. Do not confuse Oligarchy with THE ESTABLISHMENT. All are given a fair chance to achieve the America Dream. Meaning to become a member of the Middle-Class. The industrious - crème del a crème - who attain establishment-class status [by meritorious achievement] deserve their earned rewards.
Thus, conceptually, America offers everyone the opportunity to labor and profit in accordance with their personal industry. A citizen's prosperity is founded upon character, merit and hard work. You reap what you sow for yourself and family. No longer are the MANY to be exploited by enslavement to the benefited FEW. Ergo, America's years of wealth and prosperity. You are free! From poverty, to achieve The Middle-Class. From The Middle-Class, a chance of advancement into the wealth class. For all who were willing to work for it. This country is the wonderful gift you have inherited. But, do you appreciate it?
Tell me? Today. Are things the way I just described them? What is the potency of our Republican-Democracy? What about History's ever-present oligarchy-monster? Is it at our doorstep?"

NAFTA = APPALLING EXAMPLE of ONE-WAY-STREET UN-FREE TRADE WITH MEXICOAfta' NAFTA Disasta' Debacle
[NOTE: this essay contains intentionally inserted repetition to acquaint those unfamiliar with economics and its practical - sometimes brutal -consequences. ]NAFTA Major Harm, Minor Good TO BE Fearsome NAFTA proponents are blameless; misled by fallacious arguments by more-fervent dominant proponents. The latter argued NAFTA would retain a vast amount of capital [US capital investment] on the North-American continent. This would offset MAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION to the third world. This faulty analysis is presently verified erroneous - tragically incorrect. NAFTA caused major harm and insignificant good. It played into the hands of the Mexican oligarchy. An unmeritorious inheritance aristocracy class. [Sorry, Faust] Thus, we exported vital industry and manufacturing; while the Mexican aristocracy greedily sucked-up US wealth. A disastrous blunder. Unearned benefits were reaped [raped] at expense of the Mexican People. No attempt was undertaken to improve their standard of living. More infuriating... As in the past, the arrogant oligarchy, as an exchange of trade, exported their oppressed population [smoldering impoverished masses]. Illegal immigrants flooded over our borders. Thus, as previously stated, the Middle-Class financed taxes to: export living-wage jobs by outsourcing; while importing illegal immigrants to driving down their wages. NAFTA, simultaneously, devastated the American and Mexico people!!! In all honesty, pseudo-free trade agreements represent no more than massive LEGALIZED THEFT. Contributing to incremental trade deficits; which the US maintains with all the world's nations. Herein resides the rub. Further wealth transfers are extracted from our middle-class and working-poor. Unfortunately, these taxpayer is twice burnt. Billed a second time. Required, by law, to bear illegal- immigration's financial burden. In the past, this was not a serious problem. However, today, with the Middle-Class's economic downgrading, ["downsizing?"] a brutal economic fact has emerged. The middle-class and working-poor are Tax Bankrupt - broke! The necessary wealth and taxes cannot be generated to absorb unrestrained illegal immigration. It is time for Santa to take a holiday!!! [It is too depressing. We will not consider the $ Billion US-to-Mexico loan-bailout to salvage US banks from collapse.] The western hemisphere must recognize pseudo-free trade is recipe for disaster. Such proposals are intellectually-fallacious inherently defective destined to end as NAFTA. The Secretly negotiated sham CAFTA is doomed to spectacular failure. Its stated goal cannot be achieved by ill-advised piecemeal trade diplomacy. It is misguided and unwise to negotiate with oligarchies which thrive by opposing their populations' economic survival. All that is gained is - ''INSTABILITY!" Not to mention the ethical and moral questions. The foolish pseudo-free trade doctrine and paradigm must be abandoned. A feasible, transparent comprehensive equitable solution must be found. Ross Perot was correct. A great sucking-sound of an economic disaster was heard post NAFTA passage. The only NAFTA success exception is Canada. Why is Canada an important example? Canadians' living-standard is equivalent to the USA. It represents an important element of this Site's suggested GRADUAL-GLOBALIZE proposal. Namely, The European Accords actualization as a necessary prerequisite to entry into The Common Market of the Americas.
WHAT IS IRREDENTISM?[$ . WORD] DANGERS OF IRREDENTISM: ONE CONSEQUENCE OF IRRATIONAL GLOBALIZATION PANDERING RADICAL IRREDENTISTS
FAST-TRACK-TRADE authority granted to the President by the Congress was a tragic mistake demanding REPEAL. FAST-TRACK conflicts with our Republican-Democracy. It nullifies our system and principles of government. Namely, creation of the OF LAW through the legislative processes of reasoned debate and compromise. To the contrary, FAST-TRACK advances negotiating secretive trade treaties. [NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA etc.] NO extensive debate, no amendments, are tolerated. Just a take-it-or-leave-it - UP OR DOWN vote. This nullifies our representative democracy. Crushes cherished ideals for which many gave their lives. An insult to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Who, in good faith, elected Congress and the President to represent their best economic interests. POLITICAL INSTABILITY: North, Central and South America Some observers contend, from Belize to Tierra del Forego, historically, oligarchic-aristocracies, in one form or another, dominated since the Conquistadors. Tenaciously retaining oppressive rule. . Unspeakable oppression.
Oligarchies' greedy FEW prey upon the ensnared powerless. Lives subsisted in virtual involuntary servitude - bordering on slavery? Breaking Poverty's bondage impossible These countries are notorious for inhumane treatment of their working population. Working conditions, worse than Mexico, far beyond the sweat shop. Particularly, including defenseless women or children. Child labor is paid slave-wages. [SEE: Labor Department Documents, stubbornly released, at the insistence of The Honorable Congressman Sander Levin.] Nevertheless, with modern communications [the internet], the oligarchies find it increasing difficult to suppress "the least of these." Almost all [perhaps, excluding Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic] survive in varying stages of instability. Beneath the surface generational anger simmers. Impending violence awaits detonation. Remember??? The recent Central American wars? Mayhem in El Salvador. Atrocities in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua. Madness in Panama? Unending suffering, agonizing poverty, are ingredients in this devil's brew. CAFTA represents ignited fuses on national powder-kegs. Its passage, along with FTAA, [and continued Fast-Track] will inflate POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Passage will solidify, exacerbate; eventually, explode the volcano. Spreading its toxic debris throughout Mexico, Central and South America; eventually, returning to the U.S. As the Philosopher says, "Never seek trouble, for trouble finds you soon enough." The Kathy Lee Gifford Controversy? WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHEN: WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD? NOTE: Remember Kathy Lee Gifford? Regarding Latin American obscene child slave-waged working conditions, Kathy bore little or no moral culpability. She was as much a victim as those victimized.] Nevertheless, the Gifford controversy exemplifies CAFTA'S further exploitation of child slave-waged labor. Incredibly, this is exactly what is transpiring in North, Central and South America. A major reason this Site vociferously opposes CAFTA; and, its subsequent evil twin FTAA. They epitomizes the depraved level such FAST-TRACK TRADE will reduce us. Kathy was unfairly accused and defamed. However, We, as a Nation, are well-cognizant of these misguided policies. The blunt truth is: We will be immorally complicit by allowing such malevolent trade agreements passage. CAFTA and FTAA transforms America into an active participant in the economic exploitation of the oppressed. Our silence as these are adopted, is equivalent to the wanton defilement of the under-classes of many nations. Creating an unspeakable national guilt. Rightfully, future generations will blame us. Chastising and indelibly marking us with infamy. Forever condemned as the worst of Hypocrites. Permitting our government to do to foreign children what we despised being done to our own? Why? Because, We, as citizens, are morally responsible for what our government does in our name. Where are the voices of the fundamentalists religionists? Where are their morally family values? We are intently listening, but hear only condemnatory silence. If CAFTA FTAA [and continued FAST TRACK TRADE] becomes the Law of our Land, then We can no longer innocently ask, WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD?
WHO IS OUR NEIGHBOR - MY BROTHER?
Cain cemented God's Wrath WHEN: The Father demanded to know, "Cain, where is your Brother Abel?" Cain arrogantly replied, "What? Am I now to be my Brother's Keeper?" God answered by severe punishment. In effect, Yes you are to be your brother's keeper, not murder him, and try to cover it up. Who did Jesus say our neighbor - our brother was. We are to be the Good Samaritan. All men and women are our brothers and sisters. Especially, WHEN: in need! All of us bonded as one in The Father's Family Of Creation. [A Creation still in Evolution, as science knows, this very moment.] Every soul on Earth [especially the people of North, Central and South America] is our neighbor - brother and sister. They are in need of our help, not our injury by CAFTA. Think! Has that not been our Nation's purpose from its inception? The City On The Hill. To be a good example to the World! Our democracy represents self-reform and self-correction. America learns from its mistakes. Publicly washes its dirty laundry in Washington. Then hangs it up clean for all the World to see. That is why we call it Washing Town! Hello??? We are Americans. Adoption of CAFTA is an unacceptable un-American standard. Within our hemisphere we upgrade, not downgrade, standards of living. Hello??? Is anyone listening??? We know The Father is
DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTS USED IN NATIONAL SECURITY There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!% @*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem. These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author]

"ALL NEW, BECOMES OLD. THIS IS THE INESCAPABLE NATURE OF THINGS AND UNIVERSAL PROCESSES. AND. SO. TOO WITH OUR BELOVED AMERICA.. NEVERTHELESS. DO NOT BE AFRAID. AMERICA'S BEST DAYS ARE AHEAD. AN END SPRINGS FORTH REBIRTH AND RENEWAL. THE EXCITING PROSPECT ?THE FUTURE? NO. THE FUTURE IS NOT NOW. RATHER, THIS PRESENT TIME MANDATES THE IMMEDIACY OF: REASONED FEASIBLE ACTION; FOUNDED UPON THOROUGH CONTEMPLATED DEBATED DESIGN WHICH MUST CULMINATE IN A UNITED ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENSUS AND DEDICATED EFFORT . TO ACHIEVE THIS NEW 21ST CENTURY GOAL. WITH THE EXPECTATION ARDUOUS MULTI-YEAR LABOR MUST IMMEDIATE BEGIN. NO LESS THAN ACCOMPLISHMENT OF: THE CREATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BROAD-BASED MODERNIZATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AN ACHIEVEMENT NEVER BEFORE ATTEMPTED IN HISTORY. YES. AN ESCALATED SOCIETAL JOURNEY ADVANCING FORWARD 100 YEARS AHEAD. YES - THRUST 100 YEARS FORWARD IN THIS "PRESENT FUTURE" [so to speak]. THIS WILL BE, AND MUST BE, ACCOMPLISHED YES - WITHIN THIS GENERATION. THERE IS BUT ONE QUESTION REMAINING: DO OUR NATIONS CITIZENS HAVE THE "FIRE IN THE BELLY" - AS OUR ANCESTORS POSSESSED - TO ACCOMPLISH THIS 21 ST CENTURY REALITY. IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO A QUESTION OF "GENERATIONAL NATIONAL WILL, AND ENDURING DOGGED FORTITUDE."
Previously, we were reticent whether to express our disturbing concerns. Even though, our conclusions are easily corroborated empirical data. We were concerned (uninformed) skeptics would classify us as hysterical alarmists -- guilty of exaggerating our case. Consensus was reached ONLY when we recognized our uncommunicativeness was founded on what we detested most -- irrational FEAR! Not reasonable fear of an impending immediate hazard to life and limb, but the fear created by the paranoia-mongers in our present times.
Although,, no one prefers to be the bearer of bad news. After heated squabbles, much soul-searching, temptations to abandon our undertaking; eventually, we agreed, a high probability existed: If we did not speak out; perhaps, no one would. That the subsequent public revelation and comprehension of the truth, might be realized too late. Therefore, we agreed we must have the courage to tell the truth of our research study and analysis. REALITY'S EMPIRICAL TRUTH confronting America is bleak beyond gloom and doom. It is understatement, to state, the issues we raise herein are: the most critical threatening questions of our times. The facts are the facts, neither overstated nor exaggerated, staring everyone directly in the face. Even skeptics not disagree with the compelling research presented. These perils are upon us. Commanding immediate resolution. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After painstaking, scrupulous research, this Site reached the disconcerting depressing judgment: The future of the United States of America is in serious jeopardy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE UNSETTLING TRUTH IS AMERICA HAS BECOME: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fact is, America is no longer the New World. Instead, we have allowed it to, slowly deteriorate into a country someone has described: " AS THE OLD DILAPIDATED WORLD ."
As compared to other prosperous nations in Asia and Europe, America has fallen seriously behind them - technologically, economically. Etc. Although, these nations enjoy a great prosperity produced by modernization. It can be argued, in reality, much of their prosperity was actualized by America's economic generosity and multi-generational fiscal magnanimity. No. As a nation, we should not be jealous of their well gotten progress. To the contrary, all US citizens should not be jealous of their achievements. Instead, we should wish them the best in all endeavors they pursue.
Nevertheless, regarding America's Juxtaposition , in relation to the global community, the truth must be spoken aloud. Contemporaneously, America is at a serious disadvantage, Mandating The United States to transform itself to once again become competitive in the global marketplace. This stark reality must be an awakening to every citizen . Obviously, it is incumbent upon us, to immediately commence the modernization of all areas of our society. To be competitive in the global economy we the must match their efforts achievements.
More precisely, America has no choice. It is this generation's responsibility [No. This is not a task for the next generation,. Rather it is the responsibility of our generation. A time for reasoned, feasible immediate action.] to modernize our nation. As JFK would state, in effect, not only to match the accomplishments of others, but competitively better them. Otherwise, America will be unable to maintain its standard of living. We must enthusiastically seize the initiative of this great challenge.
[Site Disagreement: Some Participants consider the following "too preachy." Insisting we first consider our own faults and sins etc. On the other hand, although they agree with a the latter, nevertheless, the majority insist this message be published in this form.]
as a Nation, we have degraded ourselves; becoming our own most evil adversary. We have not been competent stewards of our God-Given Birthright - heritage.
The prosperity abundance and affluence generously bestowed upon us by The Father. In addition, the lionize constitutional assets our wise Founding Fathers endangered their lives to create for [us] posterity's liberty and pursuit of happiness. Taken together, all of which produced the most preeminent Nation "ever to so long endure" on Planet Earth.
Unfortunately, to date, the majority [if not the entirety] of this cornucopia has been mindlessly wasted. Not only is it a FACT our prosperity and wealth been frivolously misspent. With unrivaled irresponsibility, we recklessly squandered our inheritance. Worse yet, our: prized ideals, constitutional civil liberties, ethical standards, honored principles, [even our international reputation] have been dissolutely cast before swine. All those rapacious porcine creatures greedily feeding at The Trough of Avarice. Not seeking contentment of their needs; rather, nebulous gratification of their insatiable desires.
A behavior accurately illustrated by the Gospel's PRODIGAL SON.
[Who knows the motivation? Most likely, blinded by irrational ambition for extreme success = the lust for MONEY? Nevertheless, The Theologian constantly reminds us, "Jesus, never said money was the root of all evil. It is THE LOVE OF MONEY which is the root . Apparently, The Philosopher is right, "The surplus of obsessive ambition for success and winning can produce disastrous failure. In other words, an excessive aggregation of a GOOD THING can accumulate extremely adverse consequences."]
In any event, gradually, almost imperceptibly, America's ethical principles were cheapened. The Nation assumed an apathetic indifferent attitude. Gradually, we stopped practicing the spirit of the ethical- spiritual law; and, self-deceptively substituted the mere letter of the law. A thinking that: If one did not break the criminal law, then they were good. Nevertheless, all humanity recognizes humans are called to a higher plane of ethical and spiritual life. All possess an inner knowing - an innate comprehension - that obeying the criminal law is merely minimal ethics. To be a GOOD BEING we are required to do THE GOOD for its own sake. Again, The Philosopher: "It does not logically or morally follow that: Just because one does not do anything bad; does not mean he is good of character. Doing nothing does "not" accomplish THE GOOD."
What happened to our beloved country has numerous historical cases in point. It seems, to a major degree, our populace seized upon effortless uncomplicated religiosity. The end result was a broad-based discarding the practice of the spiritual-ethical teachings of all the great prophets of history. Essentially, replacing the living of these fundamental principles upon which this Nation and Western Civilization was founded.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During this present time cycle, Americans, including ourselves, have lost sight of our heritage. We forgot who we are. What we stand for. What it means to be an American! AS A RESULT, America is presently a Nation which has lost it way. Has forgotten the route home. And, must stop. Take a deep breath and rethink from whence we came. Because, there are wolves in the forest of darkness.
Thomas Jefferson: Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, o wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence. John F. Kennedy : Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both. David Hume: The corruption of the best things gives rise to the worst. Andrew Jackson: I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 05-09-2008
From a philosophical, theological, or moral perspective, corruption refers to a deviation from spiritual, moral, ethical ideals and values! Generally speaking, it is a society's, organizations', government's, businesses', corporations', individuals replacing proper actions with dishonest behavior. Repeatedly acting inconsistently with prior acceptable conduct. Which, in time, ultimately destroys its previously cherished foundational principles: integrity, virtue, morals, values and ideals. Its very reason for existence.
Corruption represents change. Changing, or the process of being changed, for the worse. A great perversion of what once was pure, simple and revered behavior with a contrary " the state of affairs." Frankly, a refusal to "DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL! Instead, substituting comprehensive fraudulent practices within the interdependent system. This invalidates its initial precepts. Thereby, resulting in a catastrophic disintegration of the system itself.
Any person who directly or indirectly accepts, agrees or offers to accept any gratification from any other person to benefit him-/herself or any other person is guilty of the crime of corruption. The person who makes the offer or inducement to another to commit a corrupt practice is also guilty of the crime of corruption. Although there is an active and a passive side to the crime, it is important to note that in the legal corruption both parties are equally guilty of corruption. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 05-09-2008
Political corruption is the use of a position of public trust for dishonest gain. This is our lowest-level in political behavior. It creates a dysfunctional political system. Where public officials seek illegitimate personal gain ["IN ANY FORM?] through actions or inactions. Guilty of dispicable behavior INJURIOUS to the Nation's best interests Forever staining themselves as not being worthy of trust - an ethical traitor to his\her Nation.
Is not the payment of lobbyists' campaign contributions [representing the corporate-wealth class] to political candidates a legal form of corruption? Unquestionably, it is a legal; nevertheless, does it not eventually induce corrupt action, inaction; or, in omission to act by the candidate or official? Is it not, in reality, a legal means of legal bribery? An implicit or explicit "legal deal" to subsequently favor THE FEW after election. Is this not a subversion of our constitutional ideals and institutions; destroying the integrity of our republican-democracy.
Mixed legal and illegal political and financial corruption can economically devastate a society. Think? Has there not transpired a vast transfer of wealth from the middle-class and the poor to the corporate-wealth class? A vast transfer of trillions of dollars. Commencing: during the term of George Bush The Father. [Remember the savings and loan scandal? Costing Middle Class taxpayers $500 billion to date.] Presently, the inexcusable, unnecessary transfer of 5.6 Trillion in tax rebates to The Rich.
In economic efficiency, cost\benefit is utilized to create the highest financial return at the lowest possible cost. Nevertheless, It does not ask if the objectives are socially desirable. Did we not see Katrina with our own eyes? Was the concept of costs/benefits analysis used to ignore assistance to New Orleans? Was Katrina not really a cynical economic evaluation of public policy. Callous analysis of cost-effectiveness only; abandoning the conspicuous human devastation. To date, this best illustrates how illegal and legal corruption contaminates our government and business institutions. We must each ask ourselves? Does this not inherently violate the principles upon which our nation was founded?
[THE MOST EMBARRASSING OF OUR TOPICS: Please see our "WHEN:" STATEMENTS later, included for those skeptical of our conclusions]
Large-scale social corruption is a broad based, evolutionary process. It has emerged as a social pathology throughout America. We have lost our sense of civic virtue. [Aristotle]. General dishonesty reigns supreme. The lusting after money has infectiously spread throughout almost every sector. Like a cancer corruption taints almost all processes. Regarding potential dishonesty by: corporations, directors, executives, managers, employees, elected officials . Americans sense HIGHER=UPS will cunningly mismanage money transactions. This dishonesty is considered commonplace. People are convinced their economic\financial relationships will somehow be rigged contrary to our interests. As a result, this is the causation of much anger on the part of the victimized the middle class and working poor. As The Economist says, "We are no longer making a larger economic pie in which all can share! Instead, paper wealth is created for the FEW; if you know what I mean." Think about it? Are we not all on edge? Anxious? Fearful. A national sense of uneasiness? Something is not right? That is, what our financial future and security will be?
Not only is corruption STEALING; worse, it is directly related to how citizens perceive their personal code of ethics. Americans have become desensitized by repeated high profile scandals in the government and corporate sectors. Every day, we observe obvious misrepresentations, outright lies, fraud and misinformation\disinformation. These are considered acceptable conduct.
Inescapably, Americans decisions inevitably become entrapped in repeated ethical dilemmas. Unavoidably, they must interact with government officials\corporations\businesses. People feel compelled [coerced] to cooperate. If ethically challenged, they conveniently change direction from doing the RIGHT THING! Adjusting their behavior to act unethically. Simple put: People are not doing what is RIGHT! Doing THE RIGHT THING is a joke. It has become a commonplace for individual Americans "to learn and know the game- the score"
Bluntly, we must admit the United States has become a corrupt society. If not, we will be unable to initiate the imperative 21st Century High-Tech Manufacturing Base necessary for our continued existence. The Philosopher: "Who can build a new home over a cesspool. The home may appear picturesque; nevertheless, the stench will compel the owners to flea." Unless we change our way of thinking - initiating a new national Code of ethics, failure will result. Why? Because contemporary unrestricted greenhead-thinking will misappropriate the necessary venture capital."
Unquestionably, High-Level Systemic corruption has disrupted; if not, virtually disabled America's progress. . Impaired future prosperity. It is blamed as a primary causation of America's increasing downward spiral. Meaning: Eventually, social corruption catastrophically destroys institutional harmony\cooperation necessary for a country's continued existence.*

DR. JOSEPH CASAGRANDE PHD has been one in a minority of VA employees; who, in reality, are honest Public Servants – not bureaucratic tyrants. DR. CASAGRANDE is a devotedly Professional of: the highest Honor, Integrity, and Ethics. Who sincerely cares for and about Veterans medical treatment. Even if it jeopardized his career. As a result, he was elevated to the rank of Chief of The Mental Hygiene Department.
Nevertheless, presently, a severe injustice has been inflicted upon him. At the edge of retirement, recently, Dr Casagrande was disgraced. Ignominiously transferred to an embarrassing outpost in NO-WHERE-LAND.
Why? We conjecture as PUNISHMENT! Chastisement by bureaucratic retaliation of the VA ESTABLISHMENT! To be humiliated; making him a wretched figure [example] to all other VA employees daring to demand traditional mental health care.
His salivating opponents [enemies?] suppose they have harvested their long anticipated revenge. Why? Because he actually, compelled these DIHONORABLES to do the right thing – simply do their job. Yes. Punishment for doing his job. The bureaucrats message = “Dare to do your job; and, you too will the beneficiary of the same degradation.”
Well! We say; Not so fast. This will not stand!!! We intend to fight for: The Wronged Righteous Ones.
We ask you, Your family, And friends To help us Right an Injustice BY WRITING: The Wilkes-Barre VA Hospital VAMA-WB ATTN: The Chief Administrator 1111 East End Boulevard, Wilkes-Barre Pa, 18711, AND\OR TELEPHONING: 1-877-928-2621, 1-570-824-3521.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday, January 16, 2008 8:11 am -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAS VEGAS DEMOCRATIC DEBATE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AT LAST, CANDIDATES DISCUSS SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At last, the Democratic candidates undertook specific dialogue regarding several critical issues confronting The Nation. Especially, such things as: the pending demise of the MIDDLE-CLASS; and, devastation of THE POOR. Launching what we hope will continue.
Why? Bluntly, without being alarmists, we ARE CONVINCED, the very survival of America is AT STAKE. We warn America?s faces the immediate POTENTIAL of economic collapse. Our conclusions are ?CONFIRMED? by this Site?s substantial empirical research [data] presented herein.
Truthfully, the future emergency is not tomorrow; to the contrary, these imminent catastrophes threaten THIS GENERATION ? US.
As Candidate Clinton remarked, these must be addressed immediately. For example: the absolute necessity of the dreadful bankruptcy law reform. Obviously, anti-MIDDLE-CLASS legislation.
We greet these candidates attitudinal transformation with a faint sigh of relief. We trust THIS AWAKENING will continue among all REPUBLICAN and DEMOCRATIC candidates.
Now is the time for specific solutions - immediate action. If not now ? then [the facts suggest] NEVER AGAIN may the opportunity present itself. Candidly: Tomorrow may be too late.
Our beloved America can be saved. Nevertheless, only by utilizing what our Site Participants designated ?GIDDINS!? Meaning: ?Get It Done, Do It Now, With Ethics!? TOGETHER all things are possible. United, nothing can stop us. OUR CONCLUSION: Action Now! Specific CHANGE Now! SO, ONWARD TOGETHER! ALL OF US
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- January 11, 2008 2008 ELECTION OUTRAGE!
CANDIDATES Attack media TRUTH-TELELLERS WHO PROTEST CANDIDATES?S Omissions OF Imminent CATASTROPHIC ISSUES
THE AD HOMINAM APPROACH --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ACCUSATIONS AGAINST ANOTHER'S PERSON OR CHARACTER - NOT THE ISSUES AT HAND. Hillary, please cease and desist utilizing terminology such as Racist, demagoguery etc you are a best person than that.] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were appalled to observe candidates viciously attack the character of MEDIA TRUTH-TELLERS. [Such as LOU DOBBS and others]. Who meticulously have researched CRITICAL ISSUES menacing our Nation.
Such as: >>>>>>> Nullification of our Constitution The Mortgage Foreclosure Crisis, Rampant political and financial Corruption, Outsourcing, U SA Vulnerability of the China Threat The Perilous STOCK MARKET, The Demise of US Manufacturing, The Pending Termination of the MIDDLE-CLASS Catastrophe for The POOR, The Potential Collapse of the US Economy, Etc.
This is the infamous deception [refuge] of the most DISREPUTABLE political Scoundrel. Otherwise, notorious as: THE AD HOMINAM APPROACH. Candidates make ?the person the issue? - rather than ?addressing the issue.? Refusal to publicize these issues betrays their hidden agenda. Indicating preference for The Special-Wealth-Corporate Interest over The Public-National Interest.
If a candidate is silent: babbling generalities = sloganeering; such as, CHANGE Experience. Is guilty of insulting the intelligence of the Nation.
The same old same approach no longer is effective. The Public is too intelligent. An uncommunicative candidate without specific solutions is unworthy a vote for any public office.
THEREFORE, PLEASE, LISTEN CLOSELY! ELECTION 2008 is the most crucial in our history?
Why? Because: AMERICA is about to be annihilated.
ALL OF US
Specifically, what do candidates mean by CHANGE?
NOTE: Our beloved Cynic insists we commence acting as a REAL Newspaper. Ergo, we caved-in and presently our Home Page will be entitled the FRONTPAGE. Surely, the TIMES and POST must be alarmed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MOVE-ON.ORG is getting a bad-rap. It is an honorable Site. Deserving a visit and donation. Please ask CSPAN to rerun their last Januay 10, 2008 appearance. Excellent!
"I know what they mean by change is: You give a cashier 1 dollar and they give you change." "By change they mean - a change of a lobbyist underwear." Mama says: " By change there meanin one of em sex operation weres the man becums da woman and the woman beconums the man" The Cynic The Satirist
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VOTERS MUST DEMAND CANDIDATES SPECIFICICALLY DEFINE WHAT THEY MEAN BY SLOGANS SUCH AS >>>>> CHANGE >>>>> CHANGE FROM WHAT TO WHAT?
WHAT SPECIFIC PROGRAMS AND PLANS -SOLUTIONS -
DOES EACH CANDIDATE PROPOSE TO DEDICATE THEMSELVES AS PRESIDENT TO ACCOMPLISH THE AFOREMNENTIONED PRINCIPLES????
Any candidate's perpetual babbling of generalities - without proposing "their" specific solutions [sloganeering etc] = justifies opponents' demanding a clear, concise statement of their position. [e.g. "I'm for 'change.'" "I offer hope."] What do these misleading generalities mean? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Continuing Sky-rocketing STOCK MARKET 05-02-2007 Yes, easily to 14,000, 15,000 even 20,000 is inevitable.
Why? Mega-corporations are gradually dismembering America, exporting it, selling it off piecemeal - then - of course, the stock market will skyrocket. When they "Outsourcing" OR "EXPORT AMERICA" AN AUTOMATIC WINDFALL OCCURS. Well compensated US employees are replaced by slave-waged laborers in third world nations. The Investor Class - The Wealth Class - purchases these monopolies' stock whose profits are certain to rapidly accelerate due to exploitation of foreign slave-waged nations - China. No level playing field is remotely possible. It transforms the US into losers - without any chance of competing.
Of course, there will be intermittent 'CORRECTIONS" as speculators SELL-SHORT AND Purchase "PUTS" prior to the CORRECTION?!@#$#$$%$. OF COURSE THE MIDDLE-CLASS merely peripherally benefits from 401 k investments etc. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHY CLAIMS THE ECONOMY IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE?

Why is Billy [O'Reiley] Silent on Illegal Immigration? The FOLKS need you. One Reason? Perhaps: Individuals [not only husbands and wives] in the lower middle class and the working poor, both or each must work two jobs to survive. Ergo, employment statistics false portray the labor market 4% with the stock market booming. "What is good for WALL STREET is usually BAD for MAIN STREET!" The Economist: "Why do I not believe the 4% number?"
Billy, we disagree with you on many things; nevertheless, believe you care about the FOLKS. "FACTOR" in - Billy - the incremental number of replacement workers - illegal immigrants - and ergo - there is your fair and balanced "EMPLOYMENT RATE." Billy your silence - on the illegal immigration issue - how it impacts THE WORKING POOR - concerns us. Who are you looking out for?
Billy please cease and desist with the temper tantrums. You are a better person than that. One of us remembers when you were the gentleman's gentleman.

We understand their concern re accusations of racism AND BIGOTRY against Hispanics. However, African-American have earned their right to gainful employment - not to be constantly "KATRINAIZED" - each generation. Do they not realize every illegal immigrant steals the job and lowers wages for THE WORKING POOR. Most of whom are struggling African-American Working Poor. FACTOID: Even during WELFARE"S heyday, only 30% of African-Americans were on welfare. 70% had the dignity to be THE WORKING POOR underpaid struggling to support themselves and their families.

ECONOMICS AND MASSIVE INVESTMENT IN AMERICA ARE THE KEYS
[NOTE TO STOCK MARKET INVESTORS: Be smart. Do not ALLOW emotion to rule over reason. Do not be afraid. Do not panic. "When in doubt - do nothing!" Do not sell nor buy securities until this crisis has passed. Why? Because THE GREAT AMERICAN RETHINKING has commenced.] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY THE US ECONOMY IS IN CRISIS? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT IS WRONG?
America's current emergency was produced because we allowed our economy to be transformed into a mere service Economy. This is outside the critical definition of Economics. America's salvation resides in beginning its immediate reconstitution into a 21st Century high-tech manufacturing [production] economy. Bringing us within the purview of the definition of Economics.
What is ECONOMICS?
Economics is the study of the production, distribution, and consumption of goods, services, income and wealth in any economy.
Thus, the is imperative we demand: vast capital investment in a new 21st Century High-Tech US manufacturing base. In addition to, reconstruction of our Nation's deteriorating infrastructure.
Yes. First, the manufacturing base means there must be reasonable restictiions on outsourcing. Because of the necessity of saving sufficient capital for subsequent investment into the USA.
Secondly, also, we must become a service and information economy. Nevertheless, first, there must a rebuilding the US manufacturing base - to create Middle-Class and Working Poor living-wage jobs.

After many years of tedious, meticulous economics research, we have concluded the following:
1. Our economy has been exported to slave wage nations by multinational corporations, which are the causation the loss of millions of US jobs and the destruction of a the middle-class.
2. Multinationals exported our US manufacturing base to slave-waged
labor for manufacture, and then in return exported these products back to the US market.
We are not certain regarding how to rectify this problem:
[Maybe, the times has arrived, to charge all imports a franchise fee, a surcharge for granting them access to our market. This fee cannot be passed-on in higher prices. Such, should be a crime. How to prove it? Thank God. We have mega-computers to trace costs of everything from

These foreclosures will cost as much as $164 billion, in lost home equity e project one out of five (19 percent) subprime mortgages originated during the past two years will end in foreclosure. This rate is nearly double the projected rate of subprime loans made in2002, and it exceeds the worst foreclosure experience in the modern mortgage market, which occurred during the ?Oil Patch? disaster of the 1980s. In brief, these are the key findings:Even during the recent period of strong housing ppreciation, subprime foreclosures have been high. As many as one in eight (13 percent) subprime home loans ended in foreclosure within five years of origination. The past housing boom masked the high proportion of homeowners who have struggled with subprime loans. For many borrowers, strong house price growth increased the amount of equity intheir homes and enabled them to refinance their mortgages despite being behind on the monthly payments. When these distressed prepayment are added to the foreclosure rates, the total ?failure rate? for subprime loans pproaches 25 percent.Key Findings? 2.2 million subprime home loans made in recent years have already failed or will end in foreclosure. ? These foreclosures will cost homeowners as much as $164 billion.? One out of five subprime mortgages during the past two years will end in foreclosure. [About this Research study] projects foreclosures on subprime home loans made nationwide during each year from 1998 through 2006, and measures the effects of housing appreciation on loan performance. We estimate future foreclosure rates using housing appreciation forecasts developed by Moody?s Economy.com, and predict subprime foreclosure rates in all major metropolitan areas in the United States. The study also xamines factors associated with subprime foreclosures, including high-risk features typically included in subprime home loans. housing prices decline, subprime foreclosures will rise. the housing boom hascooled, fewer delinquent borrowers will have the equity needed to refinance their loan or sell their home to avoid foreclosure. Our results confirm foreclosures are more likely in housing markets with lower house price growth. The chance of foreclosure on a subprime loan doubled between 2002 and 2005. Sub prime loans originated in 2002 have a one-in-ten lifetime chance of oreclosing. For loans originated in 2005 and 2006, the probability shoots up to one in five. Multiple subprime loans boost foreclosure risk even higher. Lenders often portray sub prime loans as a stepping-stone to a prime loan. In reality, many borrowers in the subprime market refinance from one subprime loan to another, losing equity each time to cover the cost of get-ting a new loan. When we analyze the likelihood of foreclosure for borrowers who repeatedly refinance, we find the risk of losing the home climbs to 36 percent. While more research needed, this estimate relies on assumptions drawn directly from refinance patterns in the sub prime market. Why Sub prime Foreclosures MatterThe report describes the first comprehensive research on foreclosures in the sub prime market, assessing how frequently subprime mortgages fail and the associated costs tohomeowners. The loss of home equity is significant because, for most families, the value this ownership is their greatest financial asset. roughly one quarter of all home loans made in the United States. Our research shows subprime foreclosure levels have been extraordinarily high even during the recent past. As housing appreciation slows, subprime foreclosures will rise even higher in the future. The losses will inevitably have ripple effects throughout theeconomy and our society as over two million families lose their physical shelter, their major source of financial security, and the social benefits of homeownership. Increased foreclosures will have an adverse impact on many local markets and specific communities. Problem Markets. Real increases insubprime foreclosures will be the norm. Using recent Moody?s Economy.com housing appreciation forecasts, we project subprime foreclosure rates in every major metropolitan in the U.S. Our data show cities in California, Nevada, New Jersey, New York and Michigan, aswell as the greater Washington, D.C. area, can expect a high rate of subprime foreclosures.Vulnerable Homeowners. It is beyond the racial disparities related to subprime foreclosures. s will affect agreat many African American and Latino homeowners, since these communities receive a disproportionate share of subprime loans.The following factors contribute to subprime foreclosures: of subprime loan today is an adjustable-rate mortgage called a ?2/28? features semi-annual interest rate adjustments after a two-year fixed-rate period. The initial fixed rate is often a discounted or?teaser? rate, so the rate adjustment can lead to a gnificantly higher payment. , these loans are sometimes referred to as exploding ARMs.? Loose Underwriting. Lax underwriting standards magnify the risk of loans already include high-risk features. Sub prime lenders who market exploding ARMs and other high-risk loans often do not adequately consider whether the homeowner will be able to pay when the loan?s interest rate resets,even if rates stay constant. Lenders escalate the risk of foreclosure even further when they fail torequire escrow for the cost of property taxes and hazard insurance, and when they approve loans without verifying the borrower?s income and employment. Predatory Lending. This report does not attempt to measure how predatory lending may contributed subprime foreclosures, but we make several points suggest predatory practices may play alarmed role: In recent years, more subprime lenders with significant market share have been success-fully prosecuted for predatory lending activities. In addition, high-risk loan products and terms, socommon in the subprime market, make it easier for unscrupulous lenders to entice borrowers with allow initial payment, regardless of whether the borrower can manage future payments. Costly fees and prepayment penalties associated with predatory loans also strip equity, making it harder for borrower to refinance and forcing them into foreclosure more quickly. We also note reports of increasing problems associated with foreclosure ?rescue? scams. Third-Party Originators/Lack of Accountability. Mortgage brokers, who originate the majority of subprime mortgages, have a strong incentive to close as many loans as possible, but very little reason consider the loans? future performance. Lenders shield themselves from the full potential cost foreclosures by selling their loans to investors through the secondary mortgage market. Together,third-party originations and the risk dispersion made possible through the secondary market help distance loan originators from seriously adverse consequences of reclosures.Inadequate Oversight: Today there are insufficient legal and regulatory consequences for making home loans are not appropriate or ffordable for the borrower. Recently federal and state regulators issued guidance requiring lenders to tighten credit standards on certain high-risk home loans.However, these standards do not apply to all risky loan products and questionable business practices common in the subprime market.Proposed Solutions With billions of dollars in equity already lost, there is an urgent need to curtail foreclosures in the sub prime market and mitigate losses families will incur in the future on unsustainable mortgages. Inbrief, CRL recommends the lowing:Establish every borrower has the means to repay his/her loan?without resorting to selling the property or refinancing under pressure. Unless subprime lenders ensure borrowers can afford their loans, other efforts to prevent foreclosures will have minimal success. For example, when offering loans with scheduled interest rate changes, lenders should consider whether the borrower will beable to afford the mortgage after the initial fixed ?teaser? rate expires. Sub prime lenders also should require escrow payments and appropriate verification of the borrower?s income, and they should con-firm the loans they offer make economic sense for a given borrower?s ircumstances.Ensure all parties involved in the loan operate in good faith, and everyone?not just the borrower?has a stake in a successful loan outcome. Recently several major banking regulators suedguidanceRoughly $1.5-trillion in adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) are scheduled for interest-rate rests between now and the end of 2009, according to figures from Credit Suisse. Resets upward from initial ?teaser? rates generally occur when ARMs have been in effect for two or three years. At time monthly payments make a dramatic increase place them out-of-reach to many homeowners. All these foreclosures add to the total of unsold homes on the market, which is already glutted with them. As a result, housing values are declining and the sale of existing homes has dropped for the eighth consecutive month in 2007.2007 Origination Volume Projected to Fall Says MBAWednesday, January 17, 2007 - Avg. User Rating WASHINGTON, DC - The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) projects economic growth in the first half of this year will accelerate from the second half of last year, averaging 3.0 percent in 2007.

MBA also forecasts total residential mortgage production in 2007 to be $2.39 trillion. Existing home price appreciation is expected to slow significantly over the next three years. Median prices should remain relatively flat for both new and existing

Last year, approximately 1 million homes went under foreclosure. Approximately, 4 million people; counting each home as a family of 4.1 persons.
This year can literally become catastrophic. 2.0 to 2.5 million foreclosures can occur within the mad low-prime structure. Meaning 8-10 million citizens could be affected; or, more. Especially, single mothers' with young children. The numbers are not certain. The SOLUTION? We believe the President and Congress must establish a 3 year moratorium on all mortgage foreclosures. Establishing a FEDERAL LOW-PRIME MORTGAGE FLOAT FUND. This WILL OPPORTUNE as many LOW- INCOME Mortgage-holders - AS POSSIBLE - TO READJUST Finances. To save as many family homes as we can. Marriages losing the security of a home soon crumble. If Washington can care for the greedy predatory lenders - the malfactory causation of the sub-prime lending catastrophe. Surely, they can do this little bit to assist the low-income victims. What have we become as a society? Each users preying upon - the taking advantage of the disagdvantaged?

Our unspoken, however, worst fear was realized. When the price of a barrel of oil was being "speculated" to astronomical heights - unrelated even to monopolistic supply and demand standards. Of course, this would INFLATE the economy. We expressed serious concern, the FED would, of course, be required to intervene to raise interest rates - to slow the economy. In turn, these rate hikes would skyrocket adjustable mortgage home interest rates. The War against The Middle-Class further escalate. Middle-Class families - unable to meet their increased monthly payment - would be foreclosed upon by the banks. Yes. Here in America, people would LOSE THEIR HOMES!!! This reality is reminiscent of The Great Depression. Directly Put: For many The American Dream is dead! Impossible for them to own their own home; as they spiral downward into the New Working Poor Class. It is time for THE GREAT Rethinking - THE National CONVENTION - for The American People - Government and Business to decide our course for the 21st Century.

Get This The Cynic Speaks Re Conservatives
"The Truth is, without the Honorable Conservatives, America would not have survived the last six years. Credit is theirs for preserving our republican-democracy. Some examples: William F. Buckley, Norm Orstein, Ed Rollins, Warner, Sunnunu [sp] DeWine, David [The guy from The Kennedy School - you know] almost all female republican senators; and, too many others to mention."
The Cynic
"What is this? Is The Kid on some kind of medication? He needs a good talking to."
We do agree on one thing. The loss of Republican Lincoln Chaffee [RI]devastated us. Why? Because he is a statesman - not a corrupt politician. Low-lifes [The Cynic's Terminology] use government service as SELF-SERVICE. THE CAREER-WHORES [THE CYNIC'S TERMINOLOGY] see it as a BUSINESS to make - not a living - rather a corrupt killing. In Conclusion, anyone interacting with THE CHAFFE FAMILY walks aways singing their praises: As a family of character, goodwill toward men and women; and ethics beyond question. Our special regards to STEPHEN. KEEP UP YOUR WORK FOR THE FATHER AND MANKIND. COMFORT LINCOLN. HIS CAREER AS A REPUBLICAN PUBLIC SERVICE IS JUST BEGINNING.

BASIC 2008 ISSUES PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES MUST SUPPORT; OR, BE REJECTED FROM CONSIDERATION! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT SPECIFIC PROGRAMS AND PLANS -SOLUTIONS - DOES EACH CANDIDATE PROPOSE TO DEDICATE THEMSELVES AS PRESIDENT TO ACCOMPLISH THE AFOREMNENTIONED PRINCIPLES????
2008 IS NOT AN ELECTION FOR POLITICAL GENERALITIES OR SLOGANEERING. ANY CANDIDATE UTILIZING SUCH MUST BE REJECTED FROM CONSIDERATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTEAD THE PUBLIC MUST DEMAND FOR FEASIBLE SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS NOT SOLUTIONS - NO VOTE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SECONDARILY, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EACH CANDIDATE MUST STATE WHAT PRESENT INJURIOUS MEASURES WILL THEY OPPOSE IN FAVOR OF THE NATIONAL\PUBLIC INTERESTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN OTHER WORDS: HOW WILL THEY CREATE A RECONSTRUCTED MANUFACTURING BASE: A NEW PROSPEROUS 21ST CENTURY UNITED STATE OF AMERICA. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2008 BASIC ISSUES PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES MUST SUPPORT; OR, BE REJECTED FROM CONSIDERATION!
2008 Candidates for President must be confronted with this question. Specifically where do they stand on this trade issue. How will they resolve it??? Evasive answers make a candidate NON-ELECTABLE. The time is upon us to demand - direct specific answers to direct specific questions. Evasive generalities [OBFUSCATION] demonstrate poor character unworthy of any Americas' vote. The Economist and ALL OF THE US
1. It is an unethical "CHEAP SHOT" to characterize an opponent's immigration position as racist. This amounts to a "per se" prejudicial defamatory slur . 2. Pandering to any voting interest ["I'm on your side."] is a fair inquiry for opposition by other candidates. 3. Any candidate's perpetual babbling of generalities - without proposing "their" specific solutions [sloganeering etc] = justifies opponents' demanding a clear, concise statement of their position. [e.g. "I'm for 'change.'" "I offer hope."] What do these misleading generalities mean? 4. What do candidates endorse by using phrases; such as: "The Death of The Nation State!" "Your children will not prosper as well as you." "Globalization is the new "REALITY?" Does this mean: They support replacing America's the economic national interest - and your future prosperity; with corporate Globalization? Do they believe America's greatness is at an end? 5. Any candidate proposing half-measures as "solutions" must not be considered viable. 6. A Health Care Plan similar to the MANDATORY PURCHASE MASS PLAN is flawed. As contrary to the spirit of the US Constitution's CONTRACTS CLAUSE. Although this is applicable to the States' interference in the right to contract or "NOT TO CONTRACT." No American should be forced to purchase anything - goods or services - especially in a monopolized insurance market.
Article I, section 10, clause 1 of the Constitution provides that ?No State shall ? pass any Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts.? On its face an absolute limitation on state power, the meaning of this clause has varied greatly in Supreme Court interpretation. In the early years of the nation, the Contracts Clause dominated the Supreme Court's case docket, and the Court's interpretations constrained state action, especially actions seeking to redistribute wealth. In modern times, the Court has all but forgotten the clause as a consequence of its substantial deference to state legislative judgment in economic matters. The Contracts Clause fits neatly alongside constitutional prohibitions against state passage of ex post facto laws and bills of attainder. These provisions ensure the general application of the law in a manner that allows citizens a fair opportunity to adjust and plan their affairs. At the Constitutional Convention, the Contracts Clause was introduced late in the proceedings by Massachusetts delegate Rufus King. King modeled the clause after a similar provision in the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, which had been adopted just six weeks earlier by the Congress of the Articles of Confederation. At the convention and during subsequent ratification debates, the objection was put forward that the clause would unduly constrain the states, precluding them from acting in times of emergency. James Madison admitted this ?inconvenience,? but thought the ?utility? of the clause outweighed these concerns. James Wilson of Pennsylvania noted that the unforeseen circumstance was still within the legislative power since the clause prohibited ?retrospective interferences only.? Because at the time the Constitution was written there was much concern with debtor relief laws, it has sometimes been suggested that the clause was singularly aimed at precluding this type of legislation. The general language of the clause, however, and its early application by the Supreme Court easily refute this limiting characterization. There was perhaps no greater proponent of the clause than Chief Justice John Marshall, who applied the clause broadly to public as well as private contracts. Thus, in Fletcher v. Peck (1810), Marshall denied the Georgia legislature power to revoke previous public land grants. Marshall conceived of the clause's protection as absolute, so even allegations that the prior grants had been tainted with fraud were not enough to justify an impairment. His opinion in Sturges v. Crowninshield (1819) firmly rejected social?welfare arguments in favor of abrogating contracts in order to discharge the debts of insolvent debtors in bankruptcy. In Dartmouth College v. Woodward (1819), Marshall ruled that a corporate charter could be impaired as much by adding additional provisions to the charter or contract as by nullifying existing provisions. Marshall's expansive reading of the clause, however, was not enough to convince the Court to disregard the framers' original understanding and apply it to laws that operate prospectively; the Court rejected this interpretation in Ogden v. Saunders (1827). While the Marshall period hewed closely to the text and history of the Constitution, its application of the clause to all public contracts caused difficulty. This problem surfaced in Stone v. Mississippi (1880), where the state sought to prohibit the sale of lottery tickets by a corporate entity that had a charter to conduct a lottery. To retroactively apply this prohibition to the corporate charter would seemingly run afoul of the clause as previously interpreted, but to deny the state the lottery prohibition would restrict the exercise of police power over health, safety, and morals. The Stone Court resolved the dilemma by articulating the reserved power doctrine that no state can contract away its police power. Since the nineteenth?century conception of police power was limited to matters of health and safety, and did not cover modern redistributions of wealth, the Stone reservation constituted no more than a correction of Marshall's expansive reading of the clause. Then, however, the clause fell into eclipse. From the Civil War until the 1930s, there was little need for the Court to rely upon the clause to negate overzealous state economic regulation since this objective was accomplished under substantive economic due process. Because it possessed a much weaker constitutional pedigree, however, substantive due process fell of its own weight during the Great Depression, when the freedom of contract policy it espoused went out of fashion. The decline of the Contracts Clause is frequently associated with Home Building & Loan Association v. Blaisdell (1934). In Blaisdell, the Court upheld a Minnesota statute that extended the period of redemption for mortgage default. The Court's justification was entirely pragmatic. In the face of economic emergency, and given the temporary nature of the mortgage relief provided by the statute, the Court construed the clause ?in light of our whole experience and not merely in view of what was said a hundred years ago? (p. 443). ?Public needs,? said the Court, required that the ?reservation of the reasonable exercise of the protective power of the State [be] read into all contracts? (p. 444). The Court tried to check the decline of the clause in a series of cases following Blaisdell, finding no pervasive emergency. The ever?broadening conceptions of police power, however, eventually transformed the absolute prohibition of the clause into a matter to be balanced with reasonable judgment. Following United States Trust v. New Jersey (1977), where the Court invalidated an abrogation of a covenant in a public bond contract, there was speculation that the clause might have regained some of its prior importance. Yet the test applied in U.S. Trust bore little resemblance to the text of the Constitution. Writing for the Court, Justice Harry Blackmun stated that contractual impairments might be upheld if they were ?reasonable and necessary to serve an important public purpose? (p. 25). Curiously, that ill?defined standard was to be applied more rigorously where state law impaired public, rather than private, contracts. Nevertheless, with rare exception, the Contracts Clause has been routinely subordinated to the modern Court's substantial deference to state legislative judgment in matters of economics. In Keystone Bituminous Coal Association v. DeBenedictis (1987), Justice John Paul Stevens stated, ?It is well?settled that the prohibition against impairing the obligation of contracts is not to be read literally? (p. 502). ? Douglas W.

Question 7. This Site recommends an alternative PRIVATE UNIVERSAL HEALTH PLAN structured on the FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM. Where the competing interests within the health market design and operate the model. Two major components: One Private Payor and most importantly ONE PRIVATE ADMINISTRATOR of all health care, Either the private free market will work or it will not! [Please see our Health Insurance Plan Pages]
8. The POLITICS OF FEAR and all FEARMONGER candidates must be exposed. "All we have to fear are the FEARMONGERS." The Former Politician "We must not allow the fearmongers to stampede the herd over the cliff." The Veteran with The Philosopher The Theologian: "St. John the Apostle stated 'In The Father there is only LOVE. In LOVE , there is no FEAR." [OR WORDS TO THAT EFFECT.]
9. One theme of the 2008 race, was well stated: "We do not want Corporate Republicans to be replaced by similar Corporate Democrats!" America needs bold, courageous independent leadership to salvage what remains of the Nation.
10. A candidate not committed to abolition of "ALL LEGAL FEDERAL CORRUPTION," is not trustworthy. [To save the nation, all PORK, EARMARKING, UNACCOUNTED FOR SPENDING MUST BE OUTLAWED. One federal accounting system must be established and enforced!]
11. If a candidate declares, when elected President, they will keep US combat troops in Iraq until 2013; does this mean, they will continue the War - not end it??? Yes or No. Time to ask for a direct answer!!!
12. A VISITOR: "Any candidate offering half-measures, pretending they solve serious national problems, must not be considered for election. No matter how much you like them."
13. Instinctively, WHO DO YOU TRUST MOST: 14. Which of these people would you prefer standing next to on JUDGMENT DAY? 15. WHICH POLITICIANS REPRESENT - THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. 16. WHICH ARE MERELY SLAVES TO THEIR ECONOMIC MASTERS, = THEIR CAREERS, BUSINESS INTERESTS, AND GREED? 17. WHO WOULD YOU TRUST WITH YOUR LIFE'S SAVINGS?
18. A VISITOR: "Which candidate would Jesus vote for?" [Now, that is an excellent question?] 19. A VISITOR: "Elective office DEMANDS PUBLIC SERVICE" - not SELF-SERVICE. Which candidate represents the former?"
20. A VISITOR: "Political party does not matter in 2008. REMEMBER CONSERVATIVES are AMERICANS, TOO. SOME TIMES EVEN THEY CAN BE RIGHT!"
21. A visitor's conviction: "We may have to elect a complete OUTSIDER. Either an ethical conservative [like a Teddy Roosevelt]; or, even a liberal type [like a Ralph Nader.]." [This site does not - will not - endorse any candidate.]
22. Will they vigorously oppose SALE OF ANY GOVERNMENT ASSETS TO PRIVATE OR FOREIGN INTERESTS? 23. Will they Establish ONE ACCOUNTING SYSTEM for the entire federal government - except for black projects. Especially, INCLUDING DEFENSE SPENDING, Under the guidance of the GAO. This budget - and on-going specific detailed spending - e posted DAILY on the internet. 24. Which will vitiate any manufacturing contracts with foreign businesses regarding manufacturer of vital defense component parts. 25. 1a. The voters have a right to a "YES OR NO" ANSWER to a SPECIFIC QUESTION. E.G. "Do you favor giving drivers licenses to illegal immigrants?" "Yes or No" Without convoluted rationales - clouding the issue by obfuscation!!! We stand with Wolf Blitzer.
26. Which candidates discuss the mortgage foreclosure issue?
We love you Hillary. However, we are obliged to clarify all candidates' stands on issues. That FIST reminds us of a certain FLA politician.
CORPORATE MONOPOLISTS' and their LOBBYISTS [WEALTH CLASS] CORRUPTION MUST BE TERMINATED; OTHERWISE, AMERICA IS A LOST CAUSE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REMEMBER FROM WHERE YOUR FATHER CAME. DUMP THE H1-B VISA IDEA --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"One who forgets from whence they came; no longer remembers who they are. If you know not who you are; you no longer know in which direction to proceed."
HOWEVER, IF YOU CANNOT COMMIT TO TERMINATING FEDERAL RULE BY CORPORATE MONOPOLIES - STRANGLING OUR DEMOCRACY, THEN , AS A MATTER OF CONSCIENCE, WE COULD NOT SUPPORT YOUR CANDIDACY.
REGARDING WHETHER ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE "INCOMPETENT FOOLS" OR, IN REALITY SOMETHING ELSE = VERY DISTURBING [A majority of Site participants oppose this opinion.] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"My involvement in politics [for approximately 10 years] taught me one absolute truth. NO INCOMPETENT PROFESSIONAL POLITICIANS - ELECTED OFFICIALS - EXIST! THEY ARE NO FOOLS. Rather = "Dumb like Foxes." Sadly, everything which is accomplished or unaccomplished - is with FULL INTENT and DESIGN.
"THE GAME and THE SCORE"
Every career politician knows: "THE SCORE" - 'WHAT THE GAME IS - and EXACTLY what are and are not THE RULES by which THE GAME must be played. Otherwise, it is their POLITICAL-CAREER DEMISE! Losing their financial ADVANTAGES, their perqs, respected stature; and, most importantly, their beloved post retirement = SECURITY.
For Instance: 1. The lack of Katrina relief was an intentional decision NOT to fully assist the suffering Poor.
2. The Iraq War: is continued for the enrichment of Monopolistic Corporations - the Military Industrial Complex. If there are NO ETERNAL WARS, then no Military Industrial Complex could survive. Wars, historically, always prosper the very wealthy - FEW - at the PERSONAL EXPENSE of the MANY. OIL, Giveaway Contracts etc ???
3. The tax relief for the top 3% is - as is the tax code itself - simply a transfer of wealth from the Middle-Class and the Poor to the WEALTH and INVESTOR CLASS.
No matter if a Depression occurs. As JFK [in effect ]stated "Wealthy people do very, very well in a Depression. It is the People who suffer. Rich people could care less."
In other words: THEY-GOT-THEIRS-AND THEY-WANT-MORE! And do not care HOW they GET IT. China? Globalization etc. So much for patriotism.
NO, NO, NO!
There are no INCOMPETENTS, FOOLS OR IDIOTS running our beloved Country. Rather, shrewd schemers. Knowing exactly what they are doing. Most certainly, the horrific consequences to be inflicted upon The Middle Class and the Poor.
THE EXCUSE
The excuse [we daily lie to our disheartened selves] is: "These elected official are: dumb, stupid; or, out of touch with the Public's needs. To the contrary. We need this SELF-DECEPTION. Otherwise, we would abandon hope, trust and belief in our wonderful Nation. However, down deep inside, most realize, we are deceiving ourselves.
A TIME FOR INDIVIDUAL COURAGE
Rather, let us be like our FOUNDING FATHERS. Courageously, CONFRONT the DISHEARTENING - DISTURBING TRUTH. For as Jesus well-knew: "The TRUTH shall set you free!" Yes. The TRUTH is TRUTH! If we do not face it squarely - confront it, America is lost. Yes. It is that serious.
THE FORMER POLITICIAN [With my courageous young Friend "The Cynic.]
P.S. I tortured myself regarding authoring this. Nevertheless, as a matter of conscience, I could no longer silently sit by in self loathing. Yes. Most of my colleagues disagree with me. However, most of them never served either in the military; or, public office. I regret delivering this bitter to my loved fellow Americans. Some want to blame the messenger. That is fine. At my age, I COULD NOT IMAGE PASSING-OVER without being TRUE to my conscience.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE MAJORITY VIEW THE MORAL SUASION APPROACH The vast Site majority still possess more faith; and, give more credit in our elected officials. Of the philosophy = moral suasion and "constituent persuasion" is more effectiveness than our friend - the beloved Former Politician - believes. Democracy is a difficult and exhaustive system. It can be disheartening - A FRUSTRATION - attempting to protect, defend; and, move toward positive realistic change. So, it has always been. Therefore, we disagree with our beloved Former Politician; and, call upon citizens - nationwide - to rise up in promoting of Public - National Interest Issues.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT AMERICA IS
AND
WHAT AMERICA IS NOT?
THAT IS THE Question? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- December 4, 2007
2008 is arriving as time for Americans to choose what sort of nation they will be in the 21st Century. The trends are clarification daily. Originally, the USA was a Nation of businessmen, hard workers, doers and achievers of prosperity for all ? or at least the opportunity for such. The Land of Opportunity = the American Dream =The Constitution, The rule of Law, Liberty. Etc. It is abundantly clearer each day, America has forgotten from whence it came. What is the purpose for its existence? In effect, no longer do we comprehend what or who to trust. Our moral and political compass is malfunctioning. The unsettling questions confronting us are: Who are we? What have we become? Where are we going? Surely, our greatness is not founded upon being perpetual warriors. Combating an illusive eternal war against terror ? fear. No country can triumph in a war against irrational fear; without becoming irrational? Regrettably, we travail in a Valley of Tears. All humans are afraid. Life?s brutal reality is inescapable RISK OF HARM! Each day does not pass without attempting to ignore that relentlessly lingering horror - worrisome Death? ?No one gets out of this world alive.?
Nor we are not empire builders - IMPERIALISTS. Fighting wars for global oil dominance. Pathetically entitled the war against terror. Which is, in reality, a ruinous impossible war against unconquerable fear!!!
Returning to the main question.
Surely, we cannot endure a transformation from a nation of achievers to that of servants. Global policemen. Repeating multiple wars, greeding for oil ? corporate profits. Done in the name of spreading pseudo-democracy. This contradicts our national moral fiber; our national character. As Americans, we are instinctively aware of this immorality. [Have we not descended in to a nation of Paranoids? Searching for enemies; even in our own midst.] No. This is not our America.
This is not who we are.
To the contrary, we are a Nation of builders; not destroyers. Our greatness flowed from prosperity. As a nation of: businessmen, hard workers, doers, and builders - high-achievers. The very definition of economics best describes us: the production of Goods [MANUFACTURING BASE] and services. Not merely a SERVICE ECONOMY. A service economy is not prosperous. It produces a slavish low-income society. It is hostile to economics very definition. Nor, are we, by nature, an information society. Who can eat information? [I will have the data-salad, please.]
America cannot survive abandoning its manufacturing heritage. Nor can we persist by exporting ? outsourcing ?our economy to slave-waged nations. Destroying [self-cannibalization] our manufacturing base defies the very definition of Economics. It is this Site?s FIRM conviction America must be reborn. Transforming itself into a 21st Century high-tech manufacturing economy.
911 changed only one thing: The necessity of eternal vigilance to defend our Nation by against foreign threats. Without doubt, the strongest military force in the world can protect itself. However, 911 did not change The CONSTITUTION; or, our values, or, our rights to liberty; and the rule of law. The time has arrived for momentous decisions. In 2008, all Americans must assess our course for the 21st Century. What will America be: one involved in perpetual wars; squandering its prosperity. Financing professional military; and privatized mercenaries worldwide. Or, commence a major reconstruction of a new production-based economy-generating OPPORTUNITY = prosperity for all. The American Dream! These 2008 monumental decisions reside in our hands, as citizens. It is our moral duty to decide who we are; who we will be. Contemporaneous with the courage to insist our POLITICAL SERVANTS? actuate our wishes into reality.
2008 is that choice. WHAT will that decision be? Choose, Wisely!!!

His arrogant statement to his friends: "But, I have never sinned." All men are sinners. Whether the admit it; or, not. Jesus Christ: "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except The Father." So, what is the nature of man? Is he good or evil? The answer: He is both = good and evil by nature - the spiritual paradox of uiniversal creation. HENCE, THE FATHER'S GIFT to Man. Freedom to choose good or evil. Any man claiming to be good is self-deceived. Without true self-analysis. Ergo, without true confession of his sins - he is without forgiveness for his hidden sins. The Father does not see Man's nature, as Man sees Man. All answers to this existence's meaning are contained in the questions God poses to an angry challenging JOB. Why do bad things happen to "good people?" Because no GOOD PEOPLE exist. Only PARADOXES.

We agree, [ie COMMON GROUND], with his views regarding abolition of LEGAL CORRUPTION.
Those officials promoting legal corruption must be removed from public office. Otherwise, it will be impossible to recapture and preserve our republican-democracy. [Careerist elected officials using GOVERNMENT for business and/or personal enrichment - must be rejected in both parties.]
Secondly, Viggorie [sp?] assertions, conservatives should support only principled Conservative CANDIDATES is accurate. Wisdom for all - whether LIBERALS. moderates, independents - THE ENTIRE ELECTORATE.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- POSSIBLE MAJOR POLITICAL REALIGNMENT? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COINING TERM "COMMON GROUND" 05-08-2007 We are not IN THE PRACTICE OF BEING self-indulgent in self-praise. However, we all owe a debt of gratitude to THE PHILOSOPHER and THE THEOLOGIAN for contemplating and inventing the concept, and terminology of COMMON GROUND. MEANING: LIBERALS AND CONSERVATIVES can STRIVE TO DISCOVER WHAT THEY AGREE UPON- regarding a particular ISSUE. Thereby, attempting to find SOLUTIONS to our overwhelming national dilemmas. Thus, saving the ad hominam political savagery for a subsequent time.

However, the US possesses an enormous number of educated and talented TECH-WORKERS. Do not deny them their opportunity at gainful employment and prosperity. THE FACT IS: The old days of playing to the Special Wealthy Moneyed interests are past. Any presidential candidate who does not comp[rehend such will not be elected. The Truth: Survey after survey, demonstrate the People are "feed-up" with the same old - same old in Washington. They demand feasible permanent reform-solutions. 2008 will decide whether or not America will survive. Moist important election in our history. END OF OLD LEGAL CORRUPTION WAYS END OF EXPORTING THE USA
No candidate who favors "OUTSOURCING," importing foreign labor to steal US citizens jobs, further exporting of what remains of our manufacturing base [formerly approximately 44% of the economy; presently 13%]; or illegal instead of legal immigrant - will fail. A new day has arrived. The Democratic Republican Parties better acknowledge this reality or both are doomed.

Yes, it could come to that, if the Democrats sell-out the Middle-Class and Working Poor.
It has happened several times in our history. The people could ask liberals and conservatives, republicans and democrats - who find COMMON GROUND [excluding the Unresolved sexual ethics and religious issues.

We realize negotiating your way through the 500 page site map is difficult, however, please be patient as we facilitate this.] Please be patient as volunteers/participants insert the necessary research on our now over 500 page Site. Prior to writing their essays etc.. Site Participants are hammering out a relatively general design of the Site of specific topics for the next 5-10 years etc. They compiled a list of approximately 500 specific reform proposals [that is: specific reasonable practical solutions] America must accomplish to survive. Why do this? Because, to our knowledge, no other entity [especially our elected officials - paid to so do.] has proposed, with specificity, supported by scholarly research - empirical fact - a methodology of most changes absolutely essential for: our republican-democracy's, The U.S.'s and the Middle-Class [The People's] survival. For with certitude the evidence mounting compel conclusions fiscal and political catastrophes are certain to descend upon us in our lifetime. Terminology such as "survival" is not alarmist - any honest politician or appointed official would privately agree. Therefore, after much heated debate, Site Participants brainstorm these THE DISPIRITING DILEMMAS - deciding this specificity approach was our moral and citizenship responsibility. Why? Because most of these solutions are within our fields of moderate expertise [or third parties who could offer expert scholarly assistance]. Otherwise, the Site agreed to search the Internet for scholars - objective experts of goodwill - to promote their research and contributions to the nation. Thus, soon, participants will insert many research sources into the now 500 Site pages. Subsequently, they will author their essays, articles, commentary and specific recommendations for CHANGE. is exactly what America must do within the 21st Century. All fear change. But, better to confront the depressing dispiriting problems [about to cause our downfall], then to stand silently by - anxiously - with false optimism and phony bravado - awaiting the axe's fall. Please, help us. Contribute your ideas. May The Father guide us, and bless our labors. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you click a PRIMARY TOPIC SECTION, hold down your right mouse button. Slide down to the LIST OF SUBSECTION TOPICS. Release the button, you should be on the selected sub-page. This works for some. Hopefully, you. Please, be patient. Our Nation is in serious trouble. We must research and figure-out SOLUTIONS.
P.S. It was almost impossible to bring America into existence. So too, with saving it in the 21st Century. Never Quit! Forward, Onward and Upward TOGETHER!!!
The Difficult, But Democratic Way
It is time for our nation to commence a comprehensive, generalist rethinking of: where we are, and what we desire America to become in the 21st Century. A time for freedom of thought, = the specific research of comprehensive solutions. When liberals, conservatives and moderates must work TOGETHER to discover COMMON GROUND - as did our forefathers - to build a New America founded upon the original principles which made our nation great.

BOTTOM LINE SOLUTION is The United Stares must rebuild its high-technology manufacturing economy. If we do not, our nation is lost. If we pull-together and decide to so do, then let us be about the immediate labor as our Founders would! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Threats Bring Conflict - Not Harmony" Confucius
CHINA: A SERIOUS LOOMING THREAT WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR: MAKING OUR ECONOMY AND THE SURVIVAL OF AMERICA DEPENDENT UPON THE COMMUNIST CHINESE GOVERNMENT?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 08-09-2007 SOMEONE, PLEASE INFORM THE COMMMUNIST CHINA GOVERNMENT AMERICANS DO NOT TAKE KINDLY TO "THREATS" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WITHOUT BEING ALARMIST WE ATTEMPTED TO WARN THE PUBLIC RE DEFECTIVE COMPONENT PARTS AND UNSAFE IMPORTS
DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTSUSED IN NATIONAL SECURITY There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!%#@*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem.[These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author] OUR CONCERN: COMMUNIST CHINA ACCELERATING ENORMOUS ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL POWER [Can China inflict catastrophic injury on stability of US Economy?]
[We are publishing this IN DRAFT FORM because the issue confronts the future existence of the United States of America. Subsequently to be edited and revised]
What follows is an UNSETTLING verification of what is currently obliterating America, The Middle-Class, and our republican -democracy. See our definition of the coined term ?SOCIOCIDE.?
In a relatively rapid time, China emerged as a world economic powerhouse. This is mainly due to vast economic growth primarily based upon China?s massive slave-waged labor pool. Usually 25 Cents to .50 cents per hour.. No developed nation can compete with it. Therefore, we conclude ?NO LEVEL PLAYING FIELD IS POSSIBLE .?
CHINA knockoffs; predatory price competition within the US market; persistent unjust manipulation of it currency postures the US impossible non-competitive position. The Chinless utilize US market DUMPING at below the cost of production. Also known as LOW-BALLING - a monopoly anti-trust term.
The Justice department refuses to enforce US anti-trust laws etc. This why the RESIGNATION OF AG Alberto Gonzales is necessary.
Most Importantly, China?s import power can effortlessly destroy any potential emerging new US small business. These are - known as FLEDGLING businesses. - Candidly, the China possesses the callous economic power - to massacre any future US small business. Thereby, killing-of US competition before it develops. Despondently, US entrepreneurs have discontinued EVEN considering capital investment into initializing new US businesses.

"ALL NEW, BECOMES OLD. THIS IS THE INESCAPABLE NATURE OF THINGS AND UNIVERSAL PROCESSES. AND. SO. TOO WITH OUR BELOVED AMERICA.. NEVERTHELESS. DO NOT BE AFRAID. AMERICA'S BEST DAYS ARE AHEAD. AN END SPRINGS FORTH REBIRTH AND RENEWAL. THE EXCITING PROSPECT ?THE FUTURE? NO. THE FUTURE IS NOT NOW. RATHER, THIS PRESENT TIME MANDATES THE IMMEDIACY OF: REASONED FEASIBLE ACTION; FOUNDED UPON THOROUGH CONTEMPLATED DEBATED DESIGN WHICH MUST CULMINATE IN A UNITED ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENSUS AND DEDICATED EFFORT . TO ACHIEVE THIS NEW 21ST CENTURY GOAL. WITH THE EXPECTATION ARDUOUS MULTI-YEAR LABOR MUST IMMEDIATE BEGIN. NO LESS THAN ACCOMPLISHMENT OF: THE CREATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BROAD-BASED MODERNIZATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AN ACHIEVEMENT NEVER BEFORE ATTEMPTED IN HISTORY. YES. AN ESCALATED SOCIETAL JOURNEY ADVANCING FORWARD 100 YEARS AHEAD. YES - THRUST 100 YEARS FORWARD IN THIS "PRESENT FUTURE" [so to speak]. THIS WILL BE, AND MUST BE, ACCOMPLISHED YES - WITHIN THIS GENERATION. THERE IS BUT ONE QUESTION REMAINING: DO OUR NATIONS CITIZENS HAVE THE "FIRE IN THE BELLY" - AS OUR ANCESTORS POSSESSED - TO ACCOMPLISH THIS 21 ST CENTURY REALITY. IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO A QUESTION OF "GENERATIONAL NATIONAL WILL, AND ENDURING DOGGED FORTITUDE."
Previously, we were reticent whether to express our disturbing concerns. Even though, our conclusions are easily corroborated empirical data. We were concerned (uninformed) skeptics would classify us as hysterical alarmists -- guilty of exaggerating our case. Consensus was reached ONLY when we recognized our uncommunicativeness was founded on what we detested most -- irrational FEAR! Not reasonable fear of an impending immediate hazard to life and limb, but the fear created by the paranoia-mongers in our present times.
Although,, no one prefers to be the bearer of bad news. After heated squabbles, much soul-searching, temptations to abandon our undertaking; eventually, we agreed, a high probability existed: If we did not speak out; perhaps, no one would. That the subsequent public revelation and comprehension of the truth, might be realized too late. Therefore, we agreed we must have the courage to tell the truth of our research study and analysis. REALITY'S EMPIRICAL TRUTH confronting America is bleak beyond gloom and doom. It is understatement, to state, the issues we raise herein are: the most critical threatening questions of our times. The facts are the facts, neither overstated nor exaggerated, staring everyone directly in the face. Even skeptics not disagree with the compelling research presented. These perils are upon us. Commanding immediate resolution. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After painstaking, scrupulous research, this Site reached the disconcerting depressing judgment: The future of the United States of America is in serious jeopardy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE UNSETTLING TRUTH IS AMERICA HAS BECOME: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The fact is, America is no longer the New World. Instead, we have allowed it to, slowly deteriorate into a country someone has described: " AS THE OLD DILAPIDATED WORLD ."
As compared to other prosperous nations in Asia and Europe, America has fallen seriously behind them - technologically, economically. Etc. Although, these nations enjoy a great prosperity produced by modernization. It can be argued, in reality, much of their prosperity was actualized by America's economic generosity and multi-generational fiscal magnanimity. No. As a nation, we should not be jealous of their well gotten progress. To the contrary, all US citizens should not be jealous of their achievements. Instead, we should wish them the best in all endeavors they pursue.
Nevertheless, regarding America's Juxtaposition , in relation to the global community, the truth must be spoken aloud. Contemporaneously, America is at a serious disadvantage, Mandating The United States to transform itself to once again become competitive in the global marketplace. This stark reality must be an awakening to every citizen . Obviously, it is incumbent upon us, to immediately commence the modernization of all areas of our society. To be competitive in the global economy we the must match their efforts achievements.
More precisely, America has no choice. It is this generation's responsibility [No. This is not a task for the next generation,. Rather it is the responsibility of our generation. A time for reasoned, feasible immediate action.] to modernize our nation. As JFK would state, in effect, not only to match the accomplishments of others, but competitively better them. Otherwise, America will be unable to maintain its standard of living. We must enthusiastically seize the initiative of this great challenge.
More installments and editing to come... Site Disagreement: Some Participants consider the following "too preachy." Insisting we first consider our own faults and sins etc. On the other hand, although they agree with a the latter, nevertheless, the majority insist this message be published in this form.]
as a Nation, we have degraded ourselves; becoming our own most evil adversary. We have not been competent stewards of our God-Given Birthright - heritage.
The prosperity abundance and affluence generously bestowed upon us by The Father. In addition, the lionize constitutional assets our wise Founding Fathers endangered their lives to create for [us] posterity's liberty and pursuit of happiness. Taken together, all of which produced the most preeminent Nation "ever to so long endure" on Planet Earth.
Unfortunately, to date, the majority [if not the entirety] of this cornucopia has been mindlessly wasted. Not only is it a FACT our prosperity and wealth been frivolously misspent. With unrivaled irresponsibility, we recklessly squandered our inheritance. Worse yet, our: prized ideals, constitutional civil liberties, ethical standards, honored principles, [even our international reputation] have been dissolutely cast before swine. All those rapacious porcine creatures greedily feeding at The Trough of Avarice. Not seeking contentment of their needs; rather, nebulous gratification of their insatiable desires.
A behavior accurately illustrated by the Gospel's PRODIGAL SON.
[Who knows the motivation? Most likely, blinded by irrational ambition for extreme success = the lust for MONEY? Nevertheless, The Theologian constantly reminds us, "Jesus, never said money was the root of all evil. It is THE LOVE OF MONEY which is the root . Apparently, The Philosopher is right, "The surplus of obsessive ambition for success and winning can produce disastrous failure. In other words, an excessive aggregation of a GOOD THING can accumulate extremely adverse consequences."]
In any event, gradually, almost imperceptibly, America's ethical principles were cheapened. The Nation assumed an apathetic indifferent attitude. Gradually, we stopped practicing the spirit of the ethical- spiritual law; and, self-deceptively substituted the mere letter of the law. A thinking that: If one did not break the criminal law, then they were good. Nevertheless, all humanity recognizes humans are called to a higher plane of ethical and spiritual life. All possess an inner knowing - an innate comprehension - that obeying the criminal law is merely minimal ethics. To be a GOOD BEING we are required to do THE GOOD for its own sake. Again, The Philosopher: "It does not logically or morally follow that: Just because one does not do anything bad; does not mean he is good of character. Doing nothing does "not" accomplish THE GOOD."
What happened to our beloved country has numerous historical cases in point. It seems, to a major degree, our populace seized upon effortless uncomplicated religiosity. The end result was a broad-based discarding the practice of the spiritual-ethical teachings of all the great prophets of history. Essentially, replacing the living of these fundamental principles upon which this Nation and Western Civilization was founded.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During this present time cycle, Americans, including ourselves, have lost sight of our heritage. We forgot who we are. What we stand for. What it means to be an American! AS A RESULT, America is presently a Nation which has lost it way. Has forgotten the route home. And, must stop. Take a deep breath and rethink from whence we came. Because, there are wolves in the forest of darkness.
Thomas Jefferson: Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, o wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence. John F. Kennedy : Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both. David Hume: The corruption of the best things gives rise to the worst. Andrew Jackson: I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 05-09-2008
From a philosophical, theological, or moral perspective, corruption refers to a deviation from spiritual, moral, ethical ideals and values! Generally speaking, it is a society's, organizations', government's, businesses', corporations', individuals replacing proper actions with dishonest behavior. Repeatedly acting inconsistently with prior acceptable conduct. Which, in time, ultimately destroys its previously cherished foundational principles: integrity, virtue, morals, values and ideals. Its very reason for existence.
Corruption represents change. Changing, or the process of being changed, for the worse. A great perversion of what once was pure, simple and revered behavior with a contrary " the state of affairs." Frankly, a refusal to "DO THE RIGHT THING FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL! Instead, substituting comprehensive fraudulent practices within the interdependent system. This invalidates its initial precepts. Thereby, resulting in a catastrophic disintegration of the system itself.
Any person who directly or indirectly accepts, agrees or offers to accept any gratification from any other person to benefit him-/herself or any other person is guilty of the crime of corruption. The person who makes the offer or inducement to another to commit a corrupt practice is also guilty of the crime of corruption. Although there is an active and a passive side to the crime, it is important to note that in the legal corruption both parties are equally guilty of corruption. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 05-09-2008
Political corruption is the use of a position of public trust for dishonest gain. This is our lowest-level in political behavior. It creates a dysfunctional political system. Where public officials seek illegitimate personal gain ["IN ANY FORM?] through actions or inactions. Guilty of dispicable behavior INJURIOUS to the Nation's best interests Forever staining themselves as not being worthy of trust - an ethical traitor to his\her Nation.
Is not the payment of lobbyists' campaign contributions [representing the corporate-wealth class] to political candidates a legal form of corruption? Unquestionably, it is a legal; nevertheless, does it not eventually induce corrupt action, inaction; or, in omission to act by the candidate or official? Is it not, in reality, a legal means of legal bribery? An implicit or explicit "legal deal" to subsequently favor THE FEW after election. Is this not a subversion of our constitutional ideals and institutions; destroying the integrity of our republican-democracy.
Mixed legal and illegal political and financial corruption can economically devastate a society. Think? Has there not transpired a vast transfer of wealth from the middle-class and the poor to the corporate-wealth class? A vast transfer of trillions of dollars. Commencing: during the term of George Bush The Father. [Remember the savings and loan scandal? Costing Middle Class taxpayers $500 billion to date.] Presently, the inexcusable, unnecessary transfer of 5.6 Trillion in tax rebates to The Rich.
In economic efficiency, cost\benefit is utilized to create the highest financial return at the lowest possible cost. Nevertheless, It does not ask if the objectives are socially desirable. Did we not see Katrina with our own eyes? Was the concept of costs/benefits analysis used to ignore assistance to New Orleans? Was Katrina not really a cynical economic evaluation of public policy. Callous analysis of cost-effectiveness only; abandoning the conspicuous human devastation. To date, this best illustrates how illegal and legal corruption contaminates our government and business institutions. We must each ask ourselves? Does this not inherently violate the principles upon which our nation was founded?
[THE MOST EMBARRASSING OF OUR TOPICS: Please see our "WHEN:" STATEMENTS later, included for those skeptical of our conclusions]
Large-scale social corruption is a broad based, evolutionary process. It has emerged as a social pathology throughout America. We have lost our sense of civic virtue. [Aristotle]. General dishonesty reigns supreme. The lusting after money has infectiously spread throughout almost every sector. Like a cancer corruption taints almost all processes. Regarding potential dishonesty by: corporations, directors, executives, managers, employees, elected officials . Americans sense HIGHER=UPS will cunningly mismanage money transactions. This dishonesty is considered commonplace. People are convinced their economic\financial relationships will somehow be rigged contrary to our interests. As a result, this is the causation of much anger on the part of the victimized the middle class and working poor. As The Economist says, "We are no longer making a larger economic pie in which all can share! Instead, paper wealth is created for the FEW; if you know what I mean." Think about it? Are we not all on edge? Anxious? Fearful. A national sense of uneasiness? Something is not right? That is, what our financial future and security will be?
Not only is corruption STEALING; worse, it is directly related to how citizens perceive their personal code of ethics. Americans have become desensitized by repeated high profile scandals in the government and corporate sectors. Every day, we observe obvious misrepresentations, outright lies, fraud and misinformation\disinformation. These are considered acceptable conduct.
Inescapably, Americans decisions inevitably become entrapped in repeated ethical dilemmas. Unavoidably, they must interact with government officials\corporations\businesses. People feel compelled [coerced] to cooperate. If ethically challenged, they conveniently change direction from doing the RIGHT THING! Adjusting their behavior to act unethically. Simple put: People are not doing what is RIGHT! Doing THE RIGHT THING is a joke. It has become a commonplace for individual Americans "to learn and know the game- the score"
Bluntly, we must admit the United States has become a corrupt society. If not, we will be unable to initiate the imperative 21st Century High-Tech Manufacturing Base necessary for our continued existence. The Philosopher: "Who can build a new home over a cesspool. The home may appear picturesque; nevertheless, the stench will compel the owners to flea." Unless we change our way of thinking - initiating a new national Code of ethics, failure will result. Why? Because contemporary unrestricted greenhead-thinking will misappropriate the necessary venture capital."
Unquestionably, High-Level Systemic corruption has disrupted; if not, virtually disabled America's progress. . Impaired future prosperity. It is blamed as a primary causation of America's increasing downward spiral. Meaning: Eventually, social corruption catastrophically destroys institutional harmony\cooperation necessary for a country's continued existence.*

Trust Me!Greed is Good.Besides, They'd do it to us,if they had the chance. ??? The truth is, although it sound somewhat impolite, "Greed satisfies all needs!" Besides, look what happened to Orson Wells’ career..

Why should you be the Person getting the crumbs, while the “Big Boys” carve up the pie for themselves? “POWER” is “THE PIE”! Take the pie for yourself, and leave them the crumbs! For the Person with the power always feeds first, and devours not “MORE” but “THE MOST”! Thus is the essence of “GREED”! To the Person, “Greed is good!”.
These reckless, irresponsible, arrogant and GREEDY tax giveaways are; and, we never use SUCH TERMINOLOGY; unless, absolutely necessary: ANTI-AMERICAN, UN-PATRIOTIC, ANTI-FAMILY!!! MONEY

It's the answer to all life s problems. always "AMASSES ENORMOUS WEALTH"! For how much treasure one accumulates decides how much "power" one has. that’s how they keep score. Knowledge is not power--------MONEY is.which is called success;Money and power follow money and power! The more you have, the more you get! If you have "nothing", you get "nothing""GOOD" by being "CHARITABLE" and "GENEROUS"! Let me explain. Always make substantial contributions to church and charities! Besides, the contributions are good tax write offs! The more tax write-offs, the less total tax liability you pay. You win, again, because you're left with more money in the bank! The people no longer do go in for the sake of good bug act upon a hidden agenda or expect something in return;THE POWER OF BELIEFcodebecomes “successful and powerful” only if people believe he’s “successful and powerful”. Money and status follow “believed” success and power! When did you ever see a bank lend money to a bum? When did a bank ever refuse a loan to a Person who drove up in a chauffeured limousine? Remember... You’re perceived by others through “the image” you project to them.

The Person who hungers and thirsts after righteousness and social justice eventually assassinates his own “SUCCESS”! He shoots himself in the foot. He becomes his own worst enemy because he plays the “unpopular”, losing game!
always “SHREWD AND NONCOMMITTAL”! He plays his cards” close to his vest”.Always keep your own counsel while you plot your hidden agenda! Be secretive. Never let people know what you’re “really” thinking!
. “
Shrewdness”Never take them” at their word”! means manipulating the other guy to declare his position and strategy. This gives you the opportunity to prepare your defenses using your enemy’s strategy against him. Constantly ask them well designed, crafty and subtle questions. Analyze their responses to determine the “real” truth. Watch their “body language”! It might “give them away”. Always “pick their brains” for information! Pretend to show an interest in what they’re doing. Get them to brag about their accomplishments, their methods of operation, and ideas. For by stealing another Person’s ideas you can escalate your career. You can take all the credit for yourself.
marriage is no longer a “personal relationship”, but rather a legal, social contract! In effect, it destroys private property rights creating “community property rights”! This can really cost you. If you don’t believe it, just have a conversation with a re cent divorcee’ regarding his property settlement. On the other hand, ”” with anyone except yourself! In other words, never make a total, personal, extended “commitment” to anyone.52% of marriages end in divorce;If you’re that “lonely”, be smart; take a mistress, or a part-time boyfriend.
there’s no “private property rights” in an idea. Under copyright laws. the .thinker or writer only owns “the use” of the words, not the ideas themselves s. Knowledge is power! A Person who’s above “intellectual larceny” ,for ethical reasons, remains ignorant, powerless and, yes, poor! For, in the ultra competitive Person arena, it’ s either “eat, or be eaten”! “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen”... because you might have your goose cooked! For the Yuppie who refuses to “play the game” by the rules of the gutter ends up in the guttermation is the name of the game!deals in “realities”, not lofty principles.
Take everything they say “with a grain of salt”. Ask yourself these questions:” What does this guy ‘really’ mean?”, “What’s this guy’s game?”, “What’s he up to?”, “Who’s he trying .to kid?”, “Does this sound too good to be true?”, “Where’ s the downside?”, “How’s this going to affect me?”. You get the picture. For the Person who is deceived is soon defeated!
Always “PLAY DUMB AND NAIVE”

“PERSONAL HYPOCRISY
” that a crafty Person can conquer his fellow Persons, and others! Hypocrisy’s gotten a “bad rap” through the centuries FROM!!! the Do-Gooders. But, the word “hypocrite” comes FROM!!! the Greek simply meaning “actor”. Besides, didn’t Shakespeare say, in effect, “The world’s a stage, and all who walk upon it but’ actors’ . “ . The truth is: “Everybody’s a hypocrite!”. Who are people trying to kid ... God? Everybody’s acting; trying to sell “their version” of the truth. The truth, of course, which benefits them!
Never, but never, tell “THE WHOLE TRUTH”! For he who tells the partial --truth is stuck with defending it! For the Person, that’s a no win situation. People expect you to “support” the things you say you believe. only tell half-truths!
When public officials cynical tell people exactly what they want to hear. Play on their prejudices, preconceived notions, and subjective opinions. You know, like the politicians do. How else can you manipulate people to act against their best interestsfear mongering the paranoia mongering;

VERY IMPORTANT:
If you must marry, always marry a fellow Person! Never marry beneath your station in life. Make sure your intended spouse has equal (or hopefully better) education, professional status, and “INCOME” as compared to yours!!! The artful Person never” gets snookered” into supporting anyone else. Remember... To a successful Person, life is not a two-way street, but rather a one-way street with traffic going only in his direction! If your foolishly going to walk the perilous road of marriage, you might as well” use it” to your best advantage. Make sure it enhances your financial position costing as little as possible!
Get your “intended” to pay half the wedding costs. If they want to get married that bad, they deserve to” pay”!
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have! = After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. When the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments when your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
: Never have “CHILDREN” unless your spouse “absolutely insists” upon it! !!If you have children, your spouse won’t have time “to spoil” you! Besides, raising children these’ days costs “BIG MONEY”. It takes two Person incomes to maintain a married Person lifestyle. Pregnancy will take your wife out of the job market leaving you without her income! “Three” can’t live as cheaply as two. Furthermore, children interfere with a Person’s career and social life. They steal your time, and “Time is money!”.
If you must have children, then have as few as possible like only one! The more children, the more the cost. The more the cost, the more your losses in investment income.
Always breed your children to be “Person Puppies”. A” Person Puppies” is a kid with your exact set of values. In other words, make sure the kid knows “the value of a buck”. You know, things like: “keeping two sets of books”, capital gains, accelerated depreciation, “padding expense accounts”, “setting up dummy corporations”, “how to file premature bankruptcy to shaft creditors”, “tax shelters”, etc.. You get the picture.
Constantly remind the kid of all the financial and career sacrifices you’re making on his behalf. In other words, put” a Person guilt trip” on him! Make the kid feel he “owes” you something in return. This way, when your re tired, the kid will feel obligated reimbursing you with some of his in come. It’s the only Person way to “break even”. This may seem a little crass. But remember, kids always break your heart. They never appreciate all you did for them. They never do what you want them to do. Instead, they always do what’s best for themselves!
Always push the chicks FROM!!! the nest as soon as possible! The sooner they learn to fly on their own, the more you’ll save!
If your kid telephones home “collect” crying because he or she was fired, asking to come home ”for a while” then it’s time to get alarmed’ They’re telling you they want to feed at your trough, once again, without paying the tab. Be sympathetic, but don’t be fooled. Make up some convincing excuse why they can’t come home. You know, like = “Your room in the basement was flooded during the last storm”, or “We discovered radon gas is leaking into our house FROM!!!
below the Earth”, or “Sorry, but we have no room. We had a fire and we’re remodeling.”. You get the picture. Don’t feel guilty about refusing the kid. Hey, who are we kidding? This is America! Everybody’s on their own. A Person can’t care for “NUMBER ONE”, if he’s caring for everyone else! Besides, if you were old and broke, you don’t think your kid would take you in his home and support you? It would be the old nursing home, or a one room, impoverished dungeon in Miami Beach. Out of sight is out of mind! Enough said.
The ingenious Person always “CRIES POOR”! Never let anyone, especially. our spouse and children, know how much money you have; i.e.; your true financial picture!!! It’s simple. If people think you have money, they’ll start hounding you. They’ll expect you to “give” them some. On the other hand, if people think you’re “POOR”, they won’t want to be bothered with you’WARNING! Always hide your monthly bank statements!
Ebenezer Scrooge had the right attitude, and should be your role model. That is, until he went “insane”, and “sold out” to the Do-Gooders. Remember ... The Christmas spirit is not for the mature Person! It’s for losers, failures and idiots who want to “feel better” because they “screwed up” their lives. Never give Christmas gifts except to your “business associates” who will help you profit in the year to come. The smart Person always knows “where his bread is buttered”. For, in the Person household, people eat his butter. But, in business, his Person “friends” the cr¨me de la cr¨me give him butter to consume.
Never Forget Person marriage is what you make it! work to your advantage! Make it
Never, but never, marry until the prenuptial agreement is signed, and notarized! Otherwise, your spouse can get their hands on your money, possessions and property earned before the marriage. You could lose everything you have!
= After marriage never mingle your funds with your spouse’s. Always keep separate bank accounts! Why? Because Person “meaningful relationships” soon turn sour and bitter. When the divorce comes, your spouse, in a moment of venomous retribution, may withdraw all your accumulated wealth. Remember... How can you “HAVE IT ALL”, if you’re left holding the empty bag?
Never get caught committing adultery! That makes you “the bad guy” in the divorce litigation. The court will punish you with massive alimony payments when your spouse starts sobbing as” the wounded party”. He who plays always!
Person RULES HOW TO BE VICTORIOUS IN CORPORATE, PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL, POLITICS! AND OTHER CAREERS LIFE IS WARFARE!
The victor is never the vanquished! For it is by “victimizing” others the Person prevents the vanquishing of his career success!
Appearances are everything! Always present a neat, clean, well groomed, fashionable company appearance! “Personal image” and” form” reign supreme in Persondom Remember... Packaging and marketing are always more important than the product inside!
A Person must maintain high, personal sanitation. Body odor, especially bad breath, is “the stench of failure”! It destroys “personal image”, and can ruin career success. In this area, follow all TV commercial instructions to the letter.
Always keep your hair length within company standards. Long hair is disastrous. Becoming known as “The Company Hippie” is career suicide. The Hippies went out of style in the’ s. These are the ‘ s “The Age Of The Persons”, not “The Age Of Aquarius”. Besides, in Persondom, there’s no place for all that “peace love and brotherhood” nonsense. It’s the marketplace principles which count, not high-sounding, utopian ideals. The word “Utopia” is the Latin word for “Nowhere”. That’s where Persons end up, if they believe Hippie philosophy
Be as pretty or handsome as you can. If necessary, use plastic surgery. For it’s life’s “pretty people” who get to play all the starring roles. Ugly people are just extras in life’s “B Movies”. Never forget the Hebrew sage’s words, “Vanity, vanity, all’s vanity!”.
Always appear healthy, eager, energetic, even athletic! Never let company officials think you’re a potential “health risk”. No company ever promotes sick people. They “weed them out”! The last thing they want is someone “actually using” the medical benefits plan. Besides,” sickness” means” absenteeism”, and that costs the company “MONEY”! If they think you’re really “sick”, you’ll be absent forever because you won’t have a job! Keep any serious disease you might have a secret.
Never get “FAT’” It’s bad for your company image, and makes you a potential health risk. Obesity leads to high blood pressure, heart attacks, and strokes. Starve yourself, if necessary, but remain slim and trim “full of vig and vim”. Besides, you know what Person society thinks regarding “fat people”.
Never, but never, smoke at work! Companies now consider smoking an “addictive behavior”. Who knows, they might schedule you for “drug testing”. Your career might become the victim of the .test’s high margin for error. Besides, Person antismoker may soon start persecuting Person smokers as a means of advancing their careers. Beware of how much coffee you drink at work. Caffeine consumption may soon be considered “addictive behavior” als
Never be seen drinking alcohol by your fellow Persons. They’ pass rumors insinuating you’re “a drunk”. However, it’s all right to have a glass of wine at the Company Christmas Party. That’s expected. However, never yawn at work. They might think you’re hung over!
:A handy of thumb is this. Always do what the company “expects”, or you will soon become “suspected” by company officials. Remember... The company operates for its benefit, not yours! Once they feel you’re of no further value to them, you’re finished.
IMPORTANT: Always be a good company “CORPOID”! A “corpoid” is a company servant who’s willing to do “anything” to advance his career. He is obedient to his superiors satisfying their every whim. A ”corpoid” is an accomplished Person who unobtrusively informs his betters that his personal ethics will never interfere with the achievement of “corporate policy”. For the Person with scruples never enters “Corporate Paradise”. He’s the guy who never gets his personalized key to” The Executives’ Washroom”!
:Remember... A smart Person never gets caught committing White Collar Crime. However, Ivan Boesky has proven, beyond any doubt, that white collar crime does pay. The secret is in the numbers. It’s been estimated Boesky earned between $ and $ million. He paid a fine of $ million to the government, and got three years in a minimum security” prison”. With time off for good behavior, he could be paroled in one year. When he gets out, he’ll be worth between $ and $ million. Not a bad deal! It’s almost like the government paid him for turning state’s evidence. Never forget the Boesky/Person axiom, “The more you steal, the less your sentence will bet”. For we have two justice systems in America: one for Persons, an done for everyone else. If you don’t believe it, watch what happens when some “lower income group” guy knocks over his local bank for a couple thou’. It’s years maximum security with very little chance of parole. For, you see , “massive crime at the end of a pen” is not equal to” minimal crime at the point of a gun”. So, if you’re going to steal, steal big!
AM
Never, but never, be “DIFFERENT”! Always “conform” and “fit in” with the rest of the company’s Persons. Remember... The Elephant Man was different ... look how people treated him? In Persondom, different people are treated differently; that is, “badly”! Enough said.
. Always be “PUNCTUAL”; especially at company meetings! For the early Person bird gets the worm while the late Person bird runs into snakes basking in the corporate sun!
. Always be “PREPARED”! The Person who doesn’t do his homework ends up wearing the company dunce cap. If you don’t know what’s going on, then fake it. Smile, and agree with everything that is said. But, never ask any questions. That will only demonstrate your ignorance Persondom, Ignorance is not bliss, it’s a one-way ticket to unhappiness the unemployment line.
. Never show disinterest in anything your Person superiors say no matter how stupid or incompetent I You need their support to climb up the corporate ladder of success. If you don’t pretend to admire them, they won’t admire you. Let them know you painstakingly researched all their “excellent” proposals and ideas. Always lavishly (or slavishly) compliment them after their presentations. For the praise you give today is the praise you’ll receive tomorrow.
Be eternally vigilant regarding your company statements and conversations! or what you say could come back to haunt you. Silence, not discretion, is the better part of valor. For silence, not words, is golden. It can avoid many hassles. . For, you see, by your Person words you are acquitted, but also by your words you can be condemned! To put it another way, always speak vaguely and ambiguously. So, if your fellow Persons attack you later, you can defend yourself as being” misunderstood” because of their inherent lack of intelligence and competence. Get it? It’s not your fault that you’re a genius, and they’re so stupid.
If someone asks you a question you don’t want to answer, then drowned them in a sea of words and non sequiturs! They’ll become so bored with your nonsense, they’ll forget what they asked. Remember... Never answer questions which divulge your true position on important issues!
(See: ) AM
Never, but never, become a
“COMPANY HERO”! Why? Because ”pioneers and heroes get all the arrows”! The guys cowardly hiding out behind the fortress walls always have a better chance of survival. Career. success is based on survival, not valor. Besides, everybody wants a title shot at the Champ. Company heroes are constantly under pressure to outperform their last accomplishment. They make the tragic mistake known as “The Person Treadmill”. They have to keep walking faster just to keep up! For, you see, the mob loves its heroes, but immediately turns against them if they don’t constantly perform according to raised, higher expectations. In other words, today’s hero can quickly become tomorrow’s bum. If you don’t believe it, just ask a former sports hero. For, it’s Person human nature to say, “Hey, it’s not what you did yesterday, but what’re ya’ gonna’ do for me today?”. As you can see, topping yesterday’s accomplishments is an impossible, losing game. It’s better to become just as incompetent as your fellow Persons until your” stab at power” comes. Remember... A moment of “corporate glory” does not guarantee Person job security! Yes, the bright, falling meteorite’s breathtakingly beautiful. However, its soon burns itself out, and is “gone forever”!
ON THE OTHER HAND,
never become a company “WALLFLOWER”! Timid and shy people never succeed. Instead, make sure you’re “seen, known, respected and admired” by all the company elite. Be “noticed”, but never make “a spectacle” of yourself. The” soft sell” is always better than the “hard sell” in Person self promotion technique. Pretend to have “an air of humility” about you. For no. one likes the arrogant, the cocky, the conceited. However, remember, the truly humble will never become the corporate exalted!
At the Company Christmas Party, try to get a seat near the head table. This will give you the best opportunity to socialize with the company Greats. If you want to become a Person Great, you must be seen with the Greats. Greatness has a way of rubbing off when one rubs shoulders with the Greats.
The talented Person strives to become a “CORPORATE MESSIAH”! A “corporate messiah” is a Person who has convinced everyone he has innate leadership skills. He’s full of corporate wisdom constantly motivating and “inspiring” his fellow Persons. In short, he has that magical quality... chrismal Corporate messiahs don’t do much, except talk, but they’re the first to be kicked up stairs. Why? Because anyone who can influence others to produce “MORE”, at the same cost, is of great value to the company.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The accomplished Person never admits he made a “COMPANY MISTAKE”! Never be the one left “taking the heat”! Always but always, find a way to blame mistakes on someone else!! Once you’ admit responsibility, they’ll punish the hell out of you. For the guy who makes the mistakes S the guy who’s fired. Remember? Richard Nixon admitted he made a mistake ... look what happened to him? Of course, he meant he made “the mistake of getting caught”. Nevertheless, a mistake is a mistake no matter the personal intent of the incompetent. For in Persondom there is no forgiveness. If you want forgiveness, make a good confession of your sins in church. But, at work, never admit you made a mistake. That’s considered first degree murder to career advancement.
. Never Forget... The Person sharks are constantly circling in the water, smelling for blood, just waiting to move in for the kill. Who, in his right mind, would give them an opportunity to have a “feeding frenzy”? It’s all a matter of Person self-preservation. The cunning Person is never the victim, he’s the victor
This next concept sounds a little indelicate, but it’s true. The only way to reach the pinnacle of corporate and professional success (i.e., “The Person Mountain Top”) is on the corpses of one’s fellow Persons! This sounds cruel and uncaring, but that’s life in the harsh realities of Persondom. Everything has a price which must be paid, even success! For it’s survival of the fittest. To the victor go the spoils! The Person who doesn’t “go for the jugular” loses in cutthroat competition.
If you’re caught “red-handed” making a mistake, always use the defenses of “PSYCHOLOGY AND MIND GAMES”! First, pretend to assume full responsibility for your actions. Then, sincerely but subtly, “MAKE EXCUSES”! Blame the whole thing on incompetent advice you received FROM!!!
Persons your boss hates. For it is by accusing others of incompetence, claiming innocence and involuntary ignorance, that one creates confusion shifting the blame to others. You know, like Ronald Reagan does all the time?
Remember! The best defense is a good offense! Putting others on the defensive forces them, not you, “to defend their actions”. They become intimidated and overwhelmed because they fear losing their jobs. Better them than you!
If that doesn’t work, then abandon your dignity and self-respect. Throw yourself on your boss s mercy; beg his forgiveness, grovel at his feet, play on his sympathies and sense of compassion. Also subtly remind him that your mistake might make him look bad, too. After all, he’s the one who hired you. He could be considered vicariously responsible. Such subtle blackmail is the best way to gain his conspiratorial complicity in a “cover-up”. Remember...It’s not who “makes the mistake” which is important, but rather who’ she “responsible” !
The best way to avoid “MISTAKES AND CRITICISM” is to do “NOTHING”! Never, but never, propose an original idea assume major responsibility, or make an important decision!!! You mightbe “wrong” or make a “mistake”. Let your fellow Persons, the overly ambitious “Glory Boys”, take all the risks. When they fail, you might be the only one left to promote
Remember...” Job security” is not accomplished by taking risks. Leave the risks to the entrepreneur types. Persons are businessmen, not “real capitalists”. The smart Person learns to feed off “created wealth”, not actually assuming the risks of creating “new wealth”. Besides, why should you be the one clinging to a life preserver in heavy corporate seas? So, keep your head out of the clouds, your feet on the ground, and your body behind your desk in your office. If you do nothing, then nothing can be blamed on you!
On the other hand, never be humble when there is a “CORPORATE SUCCESS”! Make sure you get your share of the credit, and thus “MORE”! For. the meek shall inherit: “career stagnation”, maybe demotion the menial tasks, and maybe the assembly line. “Lord, Have Mercy!”
Never take sides in a “COMPANY CONTROVERSY”! Always play both sides against the middle befriending each secretly! So , when one side wins, they’ll reward your loyalty. There is
If you’re forced to take sides, always support the prevailing, “majority” viewpoint! That is, to say, the obvious winners. No corporation or professional group ever fired a majority of its employees.
Never support an obvious loser even if he’s morally right and logically correct! You can’t spend ethics, righteousness and competence. For, it is who wins that counts, not who was right. Winning is the only line to take because it is the bottom line.
Never try to be “a peacemaker” in a company dispute! Peacemakers get caught in the conflict’s crossfire. You could become” the common enemy”. Both sides will merely blame you for trying to be helpful. Instead, let the combatants fight it out “to the death”. Later, you can move in and steal the booty... if you know what I mean? Never Forget . Self-preservation is the best self promotion.power to be found in duplicity.
And you preserve yourself by sacrificing others.
IMPORTANT: If another Company Person’s career is on the” DECLINE”, avoid him like “the plague”! To be seen in his presence, speaking with him, is the corporate “Kiss of Death”. Remember... Guilt by association is still guilt! The Guilty are soon prosecuted, convicted and punished.
When the ship’s sinking, the smart rats the first to “jump ship” finding another floating object which sustains preservation. Never, but never, let anyone take you down with them. Never hesitate to betray, deny and condemn a former “friend” wit conviction. For the Person who does not “cut his losses” at someone else’s expense, soon becomes the loser.
Never forget these paraphrased words of John Mitchell, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”... right out the door leaving the other guy to take the heat! To put it another way, always leave the’ other guy holding the bag. Sharp Person wants to be the snake charmer, not the snake charmer’s assistant. You know, the guy who’s responsible for disposing of the( not) snakes in the bag. Think about it? Who went to jail in Watergate? Was it Nixon, or Haldeman and Erlichman?
On the other hand, always cultivate the “friendship” of “RISING Person STARS”! You know, fellow corpoids who are escalating up the ladder of success. By hitching your wagon to theirs, you’ll be dragged progressively upwards. If you’re seen with winners, people will think you’re a winner, too. It’s all a matter of “common sense”. Besides, if you’re crafty enough, one day, you might be able to steal some of their limelight for yourself.
WARNING: Always be cautious when picking your Corporate Person “friends”! If some company employee starts talking about “protecting the public interest”, or “doing the right thing”, avoid him like” The Bubonic Plague”! He’s guarantied immediate career decline, and ultimate failure! One day soon, he’ll be taking his meals at the nearest soup kitchen, not The Plaza Hotel. Besides, he’s probably a liberal, an environmentalist, a unionist, or a“pinko”.
Never Forget ...Anyone who’s not a conservative or a Republican is “suspect”! Joe McCarthy proved that in the ‘ s. Never be the guy who’s “patriotism is questioned”.
To protect your image, just to be safe, never register as a “DEMOCRAT”! Who knows when the next witch hunt will begin? Besides, being a “democrat” is corporate suicide! Persondom not interested in by the man the people but rather the of the man .by the few. “The Few”! of course, meaning “The Persons”! One. more thing, never, under any circumstances, be heard speaking adoringly about Jane Fonda. That guaranties “corporate capital punishment” !
THE DOCTRINE OF SELF-PRESERVATION:
If another Person “dares” to disagree with your opinions at a company meeting, smile... pretend to tolerate his viewpoint ... then make immediate, secret plans to destroy him. For, he or she is “the enemy”! An “enemy” is anyone who makes a Person “look bad”, or stands in the way his “SUCCESS”! A Person “friend” does not publicly challenge your opinions. Furthermore, if a Person is not your “friend”, you must automatically assume he’s your” enemy” . There’s no middle of the road in Persondom. They’re either for ya’ ,or against ya’!
If a group of Company Persons opposes you, the best strategy is” to divide them, and thereby conquer them”! Remember... People will do unspeakable evil in a group they would never do individually. But how does one “divide” them? Basically, by turning them against one another through any “pragmatic” means at hand! Once they’re alienated FROM!!! one another, their sense of “common purpose” is destroyed. Their spirit of joint ventured success, at your expense, vanishes making them no longer a threat. Then, they are at your mercy. Later, you can destroy them one by one at the appropriate time. For house divided can not long stand and endure! Since they chose to “hang around” in unison against you, they deserve to “hang separately”! This may sound a little evil, but we’re talkin’ career survival, preservation and success, here. PersonISM is no philosophy for the fainthearted, the squeamish, the indecisive, or the Do-Gooders. ( Self-preservation is best accomplished by destroying one’s Person enemies!)
HOW TO EXTERMINATE A Person ENEMY: Never, but never, hesitate to use “malicious character assassination”, unfounded rumors, and vicious gossip to eradicate a Person enemy! Preferably of a sexual nature. For ridicule is the best method of destroying an enemy’s reputation. Once people are laughing and snickering behind a Person’s back, they’ll never take him seriously again. He’s history no longer a serious threat
Never attack a Person enemy with a frontal assault! That will only create “sympathy” among his” friends”. Remember what happened to Jerry Falwell when he tried to steal PTL FROM!!! Jim Bakker with overt, personalized attacks??? They both lost! Instead, always use covert” guerrilla tactics”! Subtly bide your time... then, stab your enemy in the back when he least expects it, or is not looking. Start by mildly Criticizing his “minor” faults, failings and weaknesses. Infer your criticism is “well intentioned” , sincere concern for the company’s future, and your enemy’s career success. In other words, you’re not being malicious, you’re doing it” for his own good”. That’ll get the ball rolling the rumor mill turning.
Next, quietly start passing “filthy information” regarding the enemy’s “PERSONAL LIFE”. Swearing your coworkers to “confidentiality” guaranties the gossip will leak out immediately! Rumormongers love “confidential information”.
Annihilate your Person enemy’s financial stability and security That’ll really ravage him. For there is nothing a Person hates more than losing his or her money. Accomplish this any way possible. Here’s one suggestion. Phone in $ , . of contribution pledges to the TV evangelist... all in your enemy’s name! Lucky him! For, if a Person is being sued by others he’ll have less time and stamina “to do war” with you.
NOTE: Yes, all this might sound a little devious the product of a warped mentality but. who ever said Person life, warfare and politics was fair? Besides, it's a Person axiom, if you don’t exterminate your Person enemies, they’ll exterminate you!!! Enough said.
“Always be gracious victory over a Person enemy! For an enemy once burned will be twice shy”. He’ll think twice before opposing you again. Nevertheless, no one likes being a loser. Once an enemy ways an enemy You don’t think the Japanese and Germans have lovingly forgotten ;their defeat after; World War II
. There is a great PR advantage or the victorious Person who’s reputed as “a forgiver of his enemies”. People love people who love their enemy. People love forgivers with “a soft spot”, and “a heart of gold”. However, people do not love vicious retribution. So, do not hesitate, publicly forgive your Person enemy. Besides, you can always “get him” later when his guard is down. Now, for the “real Person truths” ...
The prudent Person never forgives those who hate him! There has never been a defeated Person who has been a good loser. A Person enemy will always try to get his revenge later. But, how does one prevent this?
Always, but always, “kick your enemy when he’s down for the count”! In other words, you must destroy him when he’s most vulnerable! If he has the opportunity to stand up and recuperate, he’ll soon be kicking you in revenge. Sympathy and compassion in Persondom breeds hostility and job term nation. Hey, we’re talkin” ’war” here, not the etiquette at the Ladies’ Ice Cream Social.
Show no mercy! For, the Person who shows no mercy never has to ask for mercy! Treat your enemy the way you know he’d treat you... if he had the chance. Remember... It is the angry, unforgiving, and ruthless rogue elephant who’s always victorious not “the little mouse that roared”! A Person who fears trampling on others will, one day, be trampled upon. You don’t think ancient Persons like Julius Caesar, Alexander The Great, and Genghis Khan conquered the world by being “nice guys”, do you??? How much gold did Montezuma have after Cortez conquered the Aztecs? The Laws Of PersonISM are historical fact. One either plays by them, or one loses!
Always make sure your fellow Persons know you got your “REVENGE”! For Persons only fear those who are like them. They’ll never challenge you, once they know you “give no quarter” “take no prisoners”. The Person who does not retaliate through revenge soon becomes the victim of other Persons. For weakness and “the lack of vindictiveness” demonstrates “vulnerability” which only breeds another Person’s contempt. In Persondom, compassion is considered “unmanly”! It’s not macho! A male or female Person without machismo is considered a wimp. And, wimps never get to be “Top Dog”.
Forget everything you learned in Sunday school! A Person must deal with the brutal realities of the success game. Life is “an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth”. If you don’t punish your enemy, you’ll end up blindsided and toothless. Why do you think the Mafia invented the concept of the vendetta? Because a Person who does not get his revenge is “without honor”! The world belongs to the ruthless, not the toothless To put it another way, he who is not callous will be victimized by the callous.
THE SECRET TO EVENTUAL SUCCESS AND POWER
Sucking-up and kissing-A.. of the powerful. It all begins with your “BOSS”! The Person who does what his boss does will, one day, become the boss. First, however, it is imperative a Person gets his boss" on his side”. For, the Person whose boss does not” sing his praises” never achieves SUCCESS AND POWER!! In other words, if the boss doesn’t like ya ’, the Board of Directors won’t either! Always stroke you boss’s ! Never miss a chance to be a sycophant: agree with his opinions in all things ... flatter and compliment him until it turns your stomach ... constantly remind him of his great intelligence ... laugh hysterically at all his jokes (no matter how stupid) ... tell. him he’s your mentor and guru, etc. I Like the people he likes, and hate the people he hates! In other words, be like. him in every way possible. You get the picture. Always ingratiate yourself with the boss’s wife! If you can’t, you .better, start looking for a new job. For, Hell hath no fury like a Person boss s wife who hates his underling! He might the office, but a Person wife who’s worth her salt rules his life ever miss a chance to compliment her beauty; especially her clothing and hair style. Oh, yes, always remember the birthday cards and the. Christmas presents. They’ll say, “Oh, you shouldn’t have ...”, but It's expected for all the boss is doing for your career.
HOW TO STEAL POWER FOR YOURSELF: First, never let people know you desire” POWER”! Make them believe “you just want to do your job”. In other words, you’re so busy with “business” you don’t have time for company “politics”. This will buy you time to prepare for the most opportune moment your “power grab” :Never show your cards until you have the winning hand. For example, at the annual stockholders’ meeting, never lead or participate in a corporate rebellion or takeover. That is, unless you’re positive you have the votes and proxies to “WIN”! For everybody hates a revolutionary who loses. However , if you have the votes, don’t hesitate. He who hesitates is lost. Strike while the iron’s hot. Let nothing stand in your way. If necessary, be brutal. Because no one relinquishes power happily. In the end, it has to be taken FROM!!! them. Never Forget... “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely”; except in your case, of course. Never get sentimental during or after power grab! Don’t let your old bosses and Person “friends” talk you out of it. Destroy anyone who stands in your way! Everybody’s expendable! Besides, the Person success struggle is difficult enough. You can’t afford to carry “dead weight” up the mountain top. Everyone who’s no longer of pragmatic value must” go”! Never Forget.” Many Persons are called, but few are chosen! The path to corporate and professional success is wide, but the door to the Board Room is narrow; and few there are who are seated within!!! On the other hand, the path to downward mobility: demotion, early retirement, and unemployment is even wider. The road is strewn with the bodies of former, noN- aggressive Person
Remember.
Once you “grab” power, never forget this maxim, “YOU EITHER USE IT (POWER), OR YOU LOSE IT!”! Never hesitate to intimidate your lesser! For it is by “meanness and fear” that the powerful Person maintains his “power”. Remember .. The company’s just packed with ambitious Persons like you. They can’t wait for their “shot” at you: to topple you FROM!!! “the mountain top of success”, to “steal your job”, to “grab power for themselves”. Always maintain a high state of “paranoia”! Trust no one! Beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing! For, not everyone who smiles at you is your “friend”. Besides, the disheartening truth is, the man on top has no “friends”! Remember... The problem with “being on top” is that the only place left to go is “damn”! Think about it? “Down” means “losing your job, power and success”. If there’s no job, there’s no money. If there’s no money, there’s no power and status: no BMW and Mercedes SL, no company limo, no house in the country, no exclusive country club memberships, no “The Good Life”! Worse yet, if you get fired, you might have to get “a real job” that is; actually “work” like the masses do. Saints Preserve Us! So, always maintain “power” at any cost by any means Be especially wary of Persons with Harvard and Yale MBA degrees! To them, MBA does not mean “Master In Business Administration:’, but rather “Mean Business Advocate”! They’re the most dangerous Persons of all. . .Because they’re probably the kids of the “old money rich families n America. They’ve been playing and winning the Person’s game for hundreds of years. If you’re not careful they’ll. forewarned is forearmed..’
IMPORTANT: If you become “insecure”, indecisive, and plagued with doubt, do not worry, there is a solution. Follow this one simple rule, and you’ll never fail in Persondom. Ask yourself, “What would Richard Nixon, Nero, Judas, J.R. Ewing, Alexis Carrington, or Adolph Hitler do under these circumstances?”. Then, without hesitation, “do it”! Without question, this guaranties future Person success and power. MOST IMPORTANT: Never forget the essence of Person philosophy!” It ‘s every man for himself! It’s a jungle out there! It’s a dog-eat-dog world, a rat race, and I want to be King Rat, not the Underdog ! “THE ULTIMATE Person WARNING: He who is not the predator soon becomes the prey! For, it is Person “self-preservation, self-seeking, and self-interest” which is “The Highest Good”!
SOME RULES FOR Person PATRIOTS WAR means you have something more important to do with your life.
Like Dick Cheney... AND THOSE NEO-CONSERVATIVES Let someone else die, You have to plan the next war! If you die, think, who will plan the next war!
Always pretend to be “SUPER PATRIOTIC”! How? Cry during the national anthem. Energetically wave the flag during parades. Enthusiastically declare, at the top of your lungs, “America is NUMBER ONE!”. However, never “Buy American”. Instead, buy Japanese and European products. The quality’s about the same, but the latter have more Person” status value”
Never miss a chance to “wrap yourself in the flag”. Oliver North proved one could lie, cheat and do wrong with impunity. That is, if one wears an uniform claiming the wrong was done for love of country.
Always tell people how much you “love” America. However, pay your taxes begrudgingly. That is, of course, after you’ve taken advantage of your tax shelter. Besides, let’s face it, taxes are for the middleclass and masses. They’re the backbone of America, not you the upwardly mobile young professional. It’s their fault for not changing to become college graduates. Remember how the middleclass types “fooled around” in high school calling you “an egghead”,” a bookworm”, “a geek”, “a nerd” while you dedicated yourself to your studies? Now, who’s having the last laugh? Who’s paying the taxes? Always take all your business deductions. Write off as much of your personal lifestyle as you legally can. For, it is a given, the more taxes a Person pays, the less he has to spend on himself!!!
Always extol the virtues of “FREE ENTERPRISE”! Why? Because it is free enterprise which has made America great, not the Constitution or the freedoms listed in the Bill of Rights. For it is “economics" money), not liberty, which makes our country strong. It is “economics” which pays for all those nuclear weapons which protect us. “Freedom” only gives us the opportunity to “press the nuclear buttons”. Never trust peace marches, diplomatic negotiations and summits. It bombs that kill “the enemy”, not words! Always advocate the” Blessings of Free Enterprise” as the p’ answer to all the world’s problems. Of course, never hesitate to help your company destroy its competitors thereby monopolizing its market. For Free Enterprise means enterprise which is free for some but not for all. In other words, a competitor should not be given the freedom to steal your market share Never question the methodologies of Capitalism, no matter how cruel the outcome! If U.S. plants shut down moving their operations overseas, never publicly express your concern. It’s not your fault thousands of American workers lost their jobs. It’s only the operation of the free enterprise system culling out the unproductive and inefficient. Besides it’s all Labor’s fault for demanding an exorbitant wage for high school’ graduates. Never support government regulation of the private sector; unless, of course, it gives your company a competitive advantage in the marketplace. If you support “government regulation to protect the public interest”, you’re a dead Person! Your colleagues will think you’re a socialist, a Commie, or worse yet, a Democrat! Why ask for trouble? IMPORTANT: Always place the interests of your company before the interests of America!!! After all, the business of America is “BUSINESS”. What’s good for “BUSINESS” is good for America. Besides, let’s be honest, America’s on the decline. The signs are all-round us. The handwriting is on the wall. Remember... One day, America will pass away, however, The Multinational Corporate States Of The World will live on forever more! It’s the Person/CORPOID who shall inherit the Earth, not the patriots! The farsighted Person knows it’s time to make “friends” with the Japanese, Germans and Arabs. They’ll be taking over soon. Forewarned is forearmed! Never believe all that democracy “junk” the politicians are selling to the public It’s a myth a fiction. “Government of the people, by the people, for the people” does not exist. Public elected office, and the candidates, goes to the highest Person bidders through campaign contributions. Remember... The only worthwhile politician is the one who’s bought, and” stays bought”! For, today, democracy means, “Government of the people, by the politicians, for the Special Interests”! And, who are the Special Interests? The Persons!!! Do yourself a favor. Forget everything you learned in civics class! Always remember the “Person POLITICAL MOTTO”, “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can take FROM!!! your country!” .And do unto to them, before they do unto you! VERY IMPORTANT: One knows he has achieved “Person SUCCESS” when he can utter these words with conviction, “I HAVE IT ALL! I’ve got mine, and the hell with everyone else!”, or “Yeah, it’s all the fauDISCONCERTING QUESTIONS

They’re ruining America, damn it! Everybody knows they’re poor because they’re too lazy to work. Besides, they like being poor, or they wouldn’t be poor.

A FINAL CARDINAL RULE WARNING! “THE ‘BAD Person” is the “FAILURE” who gets” taken advantage of” by other Persons!!!

'The Middleclass Advocate'' We take no delight in reporting the following appalling news: Liberals love their country, as much as if not more, than conservatives. Nevertheless the truth must be stated: Our recently concluded economic scrutiny of the Bush tax-giveaways for the RICH include demoralizing ramifications; almost too depressing - appalling to envisage. None of us could sleep after Reading the report. Bottom Line:
America is destined to be converted into a train-wrecked society. There exists no feasible fiscal methodology by which the American people can repay the conservatively projected deficits; and, exponentially increasing debt. Our Republican brothers and sisters, (those not true conservatives) predestined us bankrupts, with a massive economic depression inevitably to follow. No other unbiased monetary or fiscal conclusion can be reached.

"THERE IS NO FUTURE PROSPERITY FOR AMERICA.
THERE IS NO THERE, THERE!"
The Economist
The Economist reiterated for all: "THERE IS NO THERE, THERE! Future prosperity for America is non-existent. For the middle-class and poor - The People. Current DO-NOTHINGISM equates to disaster. Like retraining people for fictitious future jobs. No longer do economists allude to an annual BIGGER AMERICAN PIE. There are no innovative industries deliberated; nor well-paying jobs even for the college educated. No transition to anything; except calamity. Then, a humiliating slow and painful demise. Resulting, in a drastically reduced standard of living and Third-Rate nation status. Believe me, this is not a trade or jobs issue. This is the very survival of: THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, THE MIDDLE-CLASS, THE AMERICAN DREAM - our way of life is in jeopardy! Without economic security, no future prosperity, there is no National Security. Terrorism threat pales in comparison. 'It's the economy, Stupid!'"
"Current GLOBALIZATION trends can no longer be ignored. If no immediate corrective is attempted, then the future belongs to other powers. In all probability, authoritarian Communist China will shortly the world. A monster, so to speak, of our creation. Remember, Tianamin (sp) Square? In global polarity, the EU will achieve second place. Because? The EU's essence is, by definition, an active plan for future prosperity. The US - not a contender."
NO MORE TAKEAWAYS
"Furthermore, the time for TRUTH TELLING is here. To insist upon; and, if necessary, DEMAND the REFORMATION - NOT REVOLUTION - of America's economic paradigm. No more 'fast-tracked' pseudo-Free Trade agreements; without congressional debate! Prosperity must be America's impetus - not wars planting Liberty at rifle point. No more giveaways, of Middle-Class wealth, in pseudo-Free Trade; or, otherwise. No more, what I call, TAKEAWAYS. Such as, the President's alleged Social Security reform. In reality, a cancerous poison pill will be inserted in Social Security ending in its demise. Further bankrupting the nation. Hello??? Trillion in additional debt. Besides, does this not spark inter-generational warfare? Pitting children against parents and grandparents. Is not such rivalry the nastiest variety of demagoguery? Disingenuous political gaming of one generation against another?"
JESUS RE SOCIAL SECURITY
The Theologian: "Yes. No more TAKEAWAYS. It is one thing to believe in the Bible; quite another to actually live Jesus's Gospel Way. The Gospel, a condensation of the Bible, spells out The Way unambiguously! Hello??? As in, The Gospel Followers? If the President is a Christian, what about 'Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.' Are the young, who support this claptrap, disposed to financially sustain their impoverished parents. Jesus sternly criticized the hypocritical younger generation. Children did not provide for parents. They considered honor merely words. Saying good things about parents - but neglecting their necessities of life. Jesus was furious with the priests. They knew better. Instead, all preached and followed the letter; but, arrogantly defied the Law's - holy spirit and meaning. Jesus prophesied, in the end time, fathers would bitterly oppose sons - daughters against mothers. In FDR's day, it was the same. That is why Social Security was legislated!"
TIME???
The Economist: "The real problem is time.
The exponential skyrocketing of the escalation dilemma. The clock is ticking. Time is running out for America; especially, the Middle-Class. No more leisure to tarry. Neither can we wait upon others' myopic vision to catch up. Bluntly, America is rapidly reaching the point of no return. The concluding stages of mad-rush globalization upon us. We stand at the periphery of indescribable CATASTROPHES. A cataclysm looms. The negatives from which recovery to former prosperity becomes impossible."
The youthful Cynic quoted Dr. MLK, "Yeah. Why should we? If not us, who? If not now, when? If you love your country, you love its people from which you came. You act in their best interests. Otherwise, YOU love only yourself, not your country. This issue has become a matter of conscience - conviction."
A classic moment of uncontrollable hysterical laughter erupted. Therefore: A COMPREHENSIVE REANALYSIS OF THE DEPRESSING PROBLEM FOLLOWS.
A RESTATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
ONE ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF THE NATION What is The State of America's Economy? Has Our Time of Prosperity Passed? Can We Recapture Our Former Standard of Living?
AMERICA IS BANKRUPT?
What follows is a grim interpretation of America's dismal economic prospects. A disquieting portrayal of the nation's instability. Indisputable economic realities verify America's prosperity is facing its demise. Our economy is undermined, in danger of collapse. Bluntly, America is bankrupt, its bounty squandered. What??? The richest nation in the world is bankrupt??? Yes. America is rich, but its people are experiencing a relentless reduction in their standard of living. The Middle-Class are captives chained to a treadmill. Feverishly working harder, but never advancing forward. Daily falling further behind, poised on the brink of bankruptcy. America is ensnared in a subtle economic and ethical crisis. If not addressed; it will inevitably trigger an abrupt precipitous national decline.
Grim Economic Reality Follows:
[ .] An intentional, but not malicious, de-industrialization of America has transpired. An imperceptible, insidious dismemberment [a self-cannibalization] and exportation of our wealth. Our manufacturing base is being rendered impotent. Our capacity to produce goods nullified. Together with the potential for future prosperity. The truism of economics is: without domestic capital investment in manufacturing, the annual production of a larger "ECONOMIC PIE" is unachievable. This essential life blood of investment is being sucked dry. Less manufacturing creates less growth; consequently, a perilous reduction in prosperity. Incredibly, not only domestic investment, but also: our vast manufacturing capacity; intact means of production; entire plants and factories; complete industries - have been carelessly exported. This took America over years to create. Even US wealth in: technological knowledge and industrial trade secrets [research financed by US taxpayers] is rapidly vanishing. Similarly, component-parts industries vital to national security are dispatched abroad. All, thoughtlessly, shipped overseas. Most disheartening is the silence of elected officials and the media. The irresponsible, stubborn refusal to focus the limelight on this crucial issue. To elevate it, in public significance, to the level of scrutiny, deliberation and debate it warrants. For example, the appalling scarcity of legislative proposals to limit "irrational outsourcing" [of living-wage jobs] is a national scandal.
US generosity acknowledged no boundaries; as if, America's wealth was inexhaustible. The Marshall Plan was negligently permitted to drift into what presently is designated globalization.
Since the s the US Middle-Class aggregated vast wealth which was transported abroad, in "The Great Middle-Class Wealth Giveaway." Many nations prospered. [Europe, Japan Korea etc.] Communism's bloodless downfall liberated the world. However, this triumph extracted a terrible toll. Enfeebling US economic vitality. By conservative estimates, the US Middle-Class standard of living should have doubled; if not tripled. that did not occur. The reverse happened.
Furthermore, Globalization was nourished; escalated into feeding frenzy. Ergo, we are imperiled with the exponential exportation of America. Such irrational, unrestrained, frenzied Globalization is inherently flawed; buttressed by The Pseudo-Free Trade Doctrine. Yet, the US government and multinationals persist upon its proliferation. The Middle-Class is expected to do for China, India [and the third world], what it did for Europe et al. Providing easy market access to cheap foreign imports for American consumption.
HOW DID THIS SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS COME ABOUT? THE MARSHALL PLAN GONE MAD
THE WALMARTIZATION OF AMERICA A VICIOUS CATCH DANGERS OF PURCHASING IMPORTS
WAL-MART is the largest US retailer purchasing between $ - BILLION of China's exports. The U.S. annualChina trade deficit exceeds a shocking $ billion. Continuing to grow exponentially as more U.S. and EU monopolies and small businesses madly rush to manufacture products in China - exploiting its slave-waged laborers. These goods are shipped to U.S. as imports. Produced at Chinese Prices, but sold at inflated American prices. Moreover, Wal-Mart demands suppliers charge "The China Price" - the cheapest, lowest price possible. This coercion forces suppliers to further invest overseas; exacerbating and quickening the exportation of America. The outsourcing of U.S. manufacturing and living-wage jobs. Thereby, igniting more fuel to blazing globalization. In the process, ruining our economy.
We call this Catch - WALMARTIZATION which:
( .) nullifies the potential for future prosperity; ( .) fosters an obsessively-compulsive vicious cycle and circle; ( .) devastates our domestic businesses, The Middle-Class, our economy, national security and sovereignty.
WALMARTIZATION ensnares unwitting Americans into a Catch - "Win, but no win situation." Today, you get the lowest price, but eventually lose your job; either, to outsourcing, downsizing; or, being part-timed - probably without benefits. Imperceptibly, progressively you become impoverished. Inflation increases, your wages decrease. Your income reduces. You are forced to accept a lesser-paying job. A day arrives when you are unable to afford even Wal-Mart prices. You have slipped into the bottom % quintile of Americans - The Working Poor. Today, WALMARTIZATIONgives you the lowest, China price. However, what is the real cost? Bluntly, Americans buying cheap imports, purchase themselves out of good living-wage jobs. Reducing their families standard of living .
Angry White Males [AWM]
a
US Corporation are strangling US politics.
Politicians are eagerly dominated by corporate campaign contributions. Which, of course, Big Business earns from the taxpaying-consumer. All are familiar with "Playing The Game - The Score." "Either you go along; or, you do not get along." The Special Interests are certain the middle-class will never support public financing of elections. [Estimated cost a maximum of $ - Billion each major election cycle - in a $ . Trillion Budget. Go Figure?]. Thus, to be trite, The Rich get richer; as the Middle-Class gets poorer. The Poor simply get scared. Thus, the transfer of wealth from the middle-class to the wealth-class continues unimpeded. Best Recent Example: Pres. Bush's $ . Trillion tax giveaway to the rich. The primary causation of our enormous deficits - bankruptcy. Simultaneously, fiscal responsibility is demanded by TAKEAWAYS from Middle-Class and The Needy's Federal Programs. Manufactured fiscal crises use scare tactics to force unnecessary reforms of Social Security, Welfare etc. Of course, while claiming allegiance to Christian principles.
The more sinister side of WALMARTIZATION manipulates a fear-mongered frightened Middle-Class which is experiencing a reduced standard of living. Living-wages are constrained; or, in some cases drastically cut.
DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT.
To use technical economics terminology: buying imports ravages the crucial DOLLAR MULTIPLIER EFFECT. If you do not buy American-made goods, the dollars you spend on imports are shipped to foreign nations. Your dollars are recycled over and over generating and multiplying more wealth for in that foreign economy. You export prosperity to that foreign nation, at the expense of our economy. US consumers who buy imports commit ECONOMIC SUICIDE. Sales of American-made goods plummet, initiating the demise of our domestic industries; especially, small business. Therefore, either small business joins the mad rush to manufacturing overseas; or, they perish. Worse yet , daily, Wal-Mart, and others, grow in retail monopoly power. Building more stores in more U.S. towns. Which places local small retailers at an impossible price competitive disadvantage. In Monopoly [oligopoly] parlance designates this - LOWBALLING. Charging retail prices below your competitors cost. This unjustly devastates local retailers who cannot compete with The China Price. Thus, enormous numbers of efficient profitable small businesses are forced out of business.
COMPLETE OPEN ACCESS TO THE US MARKET FOREIGN NATIONS USE UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES PREDATORY PRICING DUMPING = LOWBALLING DRIVES US BUSINESS BANKRUPT OR OVERSEAS
The USA permitted foreign competitors unrestricted [open] access to our lucrative market. These foreign nations did not reciprocate. They disallowed, constrained, and thwarted equivalent access and entry to their markets. They created ingeniously barriers [unfair trade practices ] to US goods amounting to FOREIGN PROTECTIONISM.
Meanwhile, the same nations abused our generosity damaging our domestic markets; and, the entirety of the US economy. Foreign corporations attacked our underbelly. They lowball-priced American-made goods "dumping" cheap slave-waged imports; priced even below their cost.
Imperceptibly, one U.S. industry after another; either, failed; or, capitulated ("surrendered") substantial U.S. market share. Others were driven into bankruptcy, sometimes with the indignity of assets sold at auction for pennies on the dollar. Other threatened businesses , without any other option, simply sold assets and market share. Moreover, business owners blamed themselves for failure; unaware they were victims of illegal monopolistic frauds and scams. As a result, foreign nations secured dominant shares of one US market after another. Thereafter, they maintained monopolistic control continuing to sell cheap imports. They recovered their low-balling DUMPING LOSSES by inflating US prices. The consumer must pay the inflated monopoly price. No other competitive price exists.
Worse yet, this domestic predatory environment panics small businessmen from even considering starting new businesses. The odds of failure are stacked against them. The mere threat of predatory foreign competition annihilates new US domestic investment. The record is replete with examples of one new U.S. fledgling business after another - are snuffed out in infancy before gaining a foothold in US market share.
This unabated, systematic state of affairs leaves one alternative. Manufacturers are forced to export manufacturing - compelled to abandon the American economy. The USA no longer exports American-made goods. Instead, it exports manufacturing to produce goods by immorally exploiting slave-waged - even child labor. So, entire American industries are exported. The goods produced are shipped back to the US charged at American Prices.
The result? Bluntly, consumers do not buy expensive American-made goods. Therefore, American companies can no longer compete in the American economy. Remaining US. manufacturers barely survive. Finding American-made goods is becoming virtually impossible. However, the most disturbing fact is: US Small Business provides most new well-paying American jobs.
Yes. Domestic and foreign predatory pricing practices are illegal. They violate Federal and State Anti-Trust laws - and FTC regulations. But, these laws, are rarely, if ever, enforced by government. Why? You decide for yourself.
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE AN IDIOT TRADES GOODS WITHOUT RECEIVING ANYTHING IN RETURN
TRADE occurs when two parties do commerce. Buying and selling seeking the best bargain. A skilled negotiator contracts a profitable commercial or trade agreement. This is a "Quid Pro Quo." I give you this; and, in return, you give me that. This is known as doing business. The business of America is business. [Calvin Coolidge]
The same is true negotiating Foreign Trade Agreements. Each government makes, accepts or rejects offers to buy, sell, or exchange goods and services. They believe this will create WEALTH - prosperity for their country.
Historically, our bilateral /multilateral agreements were mutually beneficial. Usually, we made a profit, called a trade surplus. A loss is called a trade deficit. Trade deficits enraged our Founding Fathers. Heads rolled as treasonous accusations bellowed throughout The Land.
As unbelievable as it sounds, since the s, the intent of our bilateral/multilateral trade became distorted. Modern trade surpluses are no longer the goal. Today, THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE reigns unchallenged. The store is being given away; contrary to our constitutional command to provide for the General Welfare. Behind closed doors, our country's "representatives" enthusiastically contract away our wealth. All participants are assured a benefit; except us. We give and give, but we do not get. In return, we receive a bag of air.
Trade has transformed from a prosperous enterprise into a bankrupt foreign policy. Its new mission - to buy the allegiance of faithless allies. With grandiosity, we selected powder-puff allies who allegedly shared our ideals. As long as we paid. Benevolently we granted them Most-Favored-Nation-Status. Code words for an economic advantage damaging to our self-interest. Sure, I will be your friend and ally, if you pay me. Like lonely children, we tried to buy friends using toys as carrots. Only to discover fair-weathered friends are nowhere to be found during a raging storm.
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE
facilitated globalization. Passage of one disadvantageous, ill-advised, feigned-"FREE" TRADE agreement after another was applauded. This mindlessness persists to our unending misfortune. Illustrated by unsuccessful NAFTA, WTO; and, now CAFTA. Without reasonable restraint, we adamantly export our wealth. [See: The condition of our Merchant Marine.] No longer are we a viable trading nation, rather we transport our industrial base to our competitors. We are a buyer, no longer a seller nation. Soon nothing American-made will remain to be traded. That is not good business, because no business exists. Business is no longer the business of America; greed is. All is not well in "The Land of Bounty." She is deteriorating. As GM goes, so goes America. But, GM is losing its leading market share to the Japanese. Hello???
Satire and sarcasm aside, all this relentlessly ravaged US industry, business, labor; and, especially, the Great Taxpaying Middle-Class. Without objection, debate or deliberation by elected officials. Such malfeasance desecrates every sound principle of governance. It is time to reprimand such misconduct. Negligent elected officials, who sanctioned this, must be censured. If necessary, removed in disgrace. Why? We employ elected officials, compensated with our taxes, to protect our economic and financial best interests. Not to be Judas traders.
One economist observes, "We have lost our way! Current Globalization is the scatter-gun approach. The product of mindless scatter-brained people. Irrationally panicked Business is fleeing overseas - outsourcing and exporting The America, we so love. A short-term neurotic impulse, devoid of reason. Certain to cause precipitous economic degeneration - societal suicide." Ergo, we are entrapped. Confronting the grave predicament of impending fiscal and economic collapse within our lifetime.
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE DOGMA?
THE IDIOT TRADE DOCTRINE
is satirical hyperbole to awaken readers to national self-deception regarding THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE. To expose self-evident fallacies in alleged free trade. It is neither free; nor is it trade. Not free. USA goods are denied fair market entry in first-world countries. Which, blatantly, practice protectionist barriers to trade. It is not trade. One-way street trade is not trade. No trade bargain exists. The USA [The American People] does not receive a fair reciprocal commercial return. Trade in essence means two- way trade. Our $ Billion trade deficit proves free trade is non-existent.
Economics is not religion founded upon dogma. Instead, science based upon finite analysis of wealth creation. Usually by the negotiated interchange of goods and services etc. Economics objectively quantifies commercial facts equating the wealth reality for all. Bluntly, "How much, and who got it." Esoteric illusions, impracticalities and ambiguities [i.e. THE PSEUDO-FREE TRADE DOCTRINE] have no place in economics. Yet, our economists and officialdom adhere to this doctrine as religious devotees. Therein resides the problem. Our purpose is to shock academia and officialdom into awareness free trade is unsustainable in modern times. Even Ricardo's historical standards no longer pass strict scrutiny. Bluntly. today, the global free trade paradigm is unscientific Pollyannaish pseudo-optimism bordering on the absurd . Therefore, we designate it with the prefix "pseudo." Our point is: this paradigm must be discarded. Replaced by a pragmatic, reciprocal enforceable and equitable new paradigm. Our suggestion, [presented only as an academic starting point] recommends what we term "Free- Fair-Mutually-Balanced Trade."
This paradigm must include three principles: ( ) free and unrestricted reciprocal access to the trading partners market. ( ) the trade agreement must be mutually-fair giving partners an equitable chance to achieve a wealth benefit. ( ) the agreement must be balanced. One party cannot possess leverage injurious the another's economic interest.
Mutual enforcement mechanisms must be created to achieve these ideals. We suggest three concepts:
( ) TRADE SUSPENSION - If trade between parties reaches an injurious imbalance (Triggering an unfair trade deficit), then trade is immediately but temporarily suspended. One Example of deficit imbalance is: the unacceptable unreasonable USA trade deficit [over $ Billion] with China.
( ) The suspension would activate mandatory renegotiation of the agreement.
( ) If and when an equitable readjustment and rebalance is achieved, then trade would resume.
At the heart of all trade agreements must be one unwavering principle - trust. Mutual trust based upon flexibility. To maintain international trade goodwill, all agreements must remain open-ended. Permitting equitably adjustments to meet the dictates of a changing global marketplace. Our primary objective is to reasonably stem the devastating effects of globalization. Which is ravaging on our wealth, national security and our middle-class. Nevertheless, we believe our recommendations go far toward creating global fair trade, peace and goodwill
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
HISTORICALLY WORLD'S TWO MAJOR PROBLEMS
OLIGARCHY AND IRREDENTISM
DICTATORSHIP IS NOT THE PROBLEM OLIGARCHY IS OLIGARCHIC ELITISM OF BIRTH OPPOSES DEMOCRACY AND MERITOCRACY BY RESTRICTING FREE ENTERPRISE CAPITALISM
WHAT IS OLIGARCHY?
A professor entered his first day History class. Silently he drew a pyramidal triangle of a two-tiered society declaring, "There is all of History. The top % are the king or dictator and the ruling class - aristocracy - the oligarchy. The remaining % is you and me - the slaves - THE HAVE-NOTS. This represents all of history until the English Civil War; and, especially, the American Revolution. Then he exited the class leaving the students dumbfounded.
The next day he entered the classroom and drew a three-tiered pyramidal triangle on the chalkboard exclaiming, "This represents all of history from the American Revolution to modern times." Again, he exited leaving the students flabbergasted.
On the third day he entered and rapidly began lecturing, "Now here are the details. From ancient times two-tier oligarchy society existed. Usually, the oligarchy consists of: the priests, the military, the police, aristocratic wealthy families. The ruling class. This establishment's primary conservative purpose is retention of the status quo at all costs.
Dictatorship is not the real world challenge. Yes. There is an allegedly all-powerful king, pharaoh or dictator. But without the oligarchy's support, he is a dead man. Every strongman needs the support of the ruling elitist class - the aristocrats - the oligarchy.
History's recurring dilemma, is this: the and the oppression of the MANY by the FEW.
Not government; but of the MANY by the FEW Oligarchy creates a two-tiered societal system without any opportunity for the MANY. Oligarchy is elitism. Usually, the oligarchs separate themselves from the HAVE-NOTS into exclusive organizations. Unaware and uninterested in the daily sufferings of the people. Oligarchs do not labor. Rather they perpetuates their economic self-interest as a matter of privilege. Wealth is based upon birth alone; not upon a persons character, hard work or meritorious achievement. The elitist class preys upon the weak; feeding off of the labors of the many. Who are paid at bare subsistence slave-wages. The FEW promoted their wealth by exploiting the poor. It is oppression. The control of "the mob." the have-nots. That's us - you and me. Sometimes referred to as The Great Unwashed.
As Alexander Hamilton called the People - THE BEAST. The oppressed are enslaved in a fixed system with no hope of advancement or fair share of the the national wealth
This Elitism is the enemy of democracy and republicanism. Privileged is retained by the ruthless of the MANY. Thus, Oligarchy endangers a society's peace. Eventually, conflict erupts. Usually, followed by murderous persecution. Order is maintained by the police; or, if needed the military.
GENIUS OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS CREATION OF REPUBLICAN-DEMOCRACY CREATING THE HAVE-SOMES = THE AMERICAN MIDDLE-CLASS
Our Founding Fathers' genius expressed itself in creation of a republican-democracy. This incorporated, restricted and restrained History's dangerous oligarchy. Republican-Democracy is a form of oligarchy; continuing many of its characteristics. Even so, The MANY elect The FEW. Whose political powers are temporary and dependant upon the MANY'S will and whim. We do not elect politicians to us. Rather the FEW are our servants - public servants! These representative oligarchs must advocate the best interests of the governed. Required to rank the people's interest supreme over all others. Especially, above the FEW powerful, vested, moneyed - special - interests. Retention in office rests firmly within the consent of the governed. Political control is secured in their hands. Thus, The MANY hold the ultimate tromp card. Withdrawing their consent in the next election; thereby removing the FEW. [The Professor illustrated this by a three-tiered upside-down pyramid.] This is America's political construction. It is patently obvious, political and economic power originates from the bottom - dominating the top. So, the people govern themselves through chosen representatives. This is why America is the world's greatest hope. A nation created not upon the rights of familial privilege, wealth, or pseudo divine right. To the contrary, upon a birthright of unalienable rights bestowed by the Creator. Our Republican-Democracy owes an enormous debt to the Enlightenment. During the Constitutional Convention, prominent Founders [who were Deists and Freemasons] espoused its principles. However, The Founders were unambiguous. America is not guaranteed perpetual existence. Rather, it is - A Great Risk - The Great Experiment. Containing the intrinsic capability to cause its disintegration. Thereby, negligently reverting to oligarchy.
How? Why?
Because democracy is exasperating deliberation - slow and inefficient. Government is institutionalized upon two RULES. The of Law - which is created by the free operation of the of Reason. Law is born of discordant, but reasoned debate. It promotes power-restriction by intentionally incorporating gridlock - checks and balances. Which means a state of confrontation and stalemate is typically created. Aggravating quarrelsome debate continues [ad nauseam] until reasonable compromise is achieved. Politicians are not intended to be accommodating. They are supposed to disagree, to protect our interest, without being disagreeable.
Why? Because ... Law, not the cult of personality or privilege, governs our Land. The law, in effect, determines WHO GETS, AND HOW MUCH. WHO PAYS AND WHO AVOIDS TAXES. We do not go to war. We tediously argue our differences - then vote. So, he who controls the lawmaking process, controls the nation. The Public [turned-off by the dreariness] does not understand this. It is contrary to human nature. Unrealistically, Humans impatiently demand instant results. The immediate outcome the dictator or king offers. Yes. The strongman presents you prompt results, then steals your freedom. In exchange, you receive a life of servitude to him and his eagerly supportive oligarchy.
Most importantly, our Founders formulated 'HOPE' for mankind - posterity. What we identify as The Middle-Class - The Have-Somes. Take HOPE away, and republican-democracy collapses. Democracy requires each generation's rededication to preserve it. Why? Because the oligarchy-monster lingers waiting to substitute itself to fill any vacuum. That caused by citizens' inaction or apathy - their failure to be civically responsible. It takes 'ETERNAL VIGILANCE' to conserve Liberty's gift. A perpetual alertness to oppose the relentless insistence of the powerful FEW to assume absolute control. To rule, not govern, the MANY. This is why Ben Franklin responded, 'A Republic; if you can keep it?' In WW II, the Nazis and Communists proved Democracy is a fragile flower effortlessly crushed under the jackboot. Do not confuse Oligarchy with THE ESTABLISHMENT. All are given a fair chance to achieve the America Dream. Meaning to become a member of the The Middle-Class. The industrious - crème del a crème - who attain establishment-class status [by meritorious achievement] deserve their earnedrewards.
Thus, conceptually, America offers everyone the opportunity to labor and profit in accordance with their personal industry. A citizen's prosperity is founded upon character, merit and hard work. You reap what you sow for yourself and family. No longer are the MANY to be exploited by enslavement to the benefited FEW. Ergo, America's years of wealth and prosperity. You are free! From poverty, to achieve The Middle-Class. From The Middle-Class, a chance of advancement into the wealth class. For all who were willing to work for it. This country is the wonderful gift you have inherited. But, do you appreciate it?
Tell me? Today. Are things the way I just described them? What is the potency of our Republican-Democracy? What about History's ever-present oligarchy-monster? Is it at our doorstep?"
"One day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Joseph

MEXICO'S OPPRESSIVE OLIGARCHY [Dedicated to the memory of Emiliano Zapata] A DISTURBING EXAMPLE OF REGIONAL DESTABILIZATION
NAFTA = APPALLING EXAMPLE of ONE-WAY-STREET UN-FREE TRADE WITH MEXICO Afta' NAFTA Disasta' Debacle
[NOTE: this essay contains intentionally inserted repetition to acquaint those unfamiliar with economics and its practical - sometimes brutal -consequences. ]NAFTA Major Harm, Minor GoodTO BE FAIR:Some NAFTA proponents are blameless; misled by fallacious arguments by more-fervent dominant proponents. The latter argued NAFTA would retain a vast amount of capital [US capital investment] on the North-American continent. This would offset MAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION to the third world. This faulty analysis is presently verifiederroneous - tragically incorrect. NAFTA caused major harm and insignificant good. It played into the hands of the Mexican oligarchy. An unmeritorious inheritance aristocracy class. [Sorry, Fausto] Thus, we exported vital industry and manufacturing; while the Mexican aristocracy greedily sucked-up US wealth. A disastrous blunder. Unearned benefits were reaped [raped] at expense of the Mexican People. No attempt was undertaken to improve their standard of living. More infuriating... As in the past, the arrogant oligarchy, as an exchange of trade, exported their oppressed population [smoldering impoverished masses]. Illegal immigrants flooded over our borders. Thus, as previously stated, the Middle-Class financed taxes to: export living-wage jobs by outsourcing; while importing illegal immigrants to driving down their wages. NAFTA, simultaneously, devastated the American and Mexico people!!! In all honesty, pseudo-free trade agreements represent no more than massive LEGALIZED THEFT. Contributing to incremental trade deficits; which the US maintains with all the world's nations. Herein resides the rub. Further wealth transfers are extracted from our middle-class and working-poor. Unfortunately, these taxpayer is twice burnt. Billed a second time. Required, by law, to bear illegal- immigration's financial burden. In the past, this was not a serious problem. However, today, with the Middle-Class's economic downgrading, ["downsizing?"] a brutal economic fact has emerged. The middle-class and working-poor are Tax Bankrupt - broke! The necessary wealth and taxes cannot be generated to absorb unrestrained illegal immigration. It is time for Santa to take a holiday!!! [It is too depressing. We will not consider the $ Billion US-to-Mexico loan-bailout to salvage US banks from collapse.]The western hemisphere must recognize pseudo-free trade is recipe for disaster. Such proposals are intellectually-fallacious inherently defective destined to end as NAFTA. The Secretly negotiated sham CAFTA is doomed to spectacular failure. Its stated goal cannot be achieved by ill-advised piecemeal trade diplomacy. It is misguided and unwise to negotiate with oligarchies which thrive by opposing their populations' economic survival. All that is gained is - ''INSTABILITY!" Not to mention the ethical and moral questions. The foolish pseudo-free trade doctrine and paradigm must be abandoned. A feasible, transparent comprehensive equitable solution must be found. Ross Perot was correct. A great sucking-sound of an economic disaster was heard post NAFTA passage. The only NAFTA success exception is Canada. Why is Canada an important example? Canadians' living-standard is equivalent to the USA. It represents an important element of this Site's suggested GRADUAL-GLOBALISM proposal. Namely, The European Accords actualization as a necessary prerequisite to entry into The Common Market of the Americas.
WHAT IS IRREDENTISM? [$ . WORD] DANGERS OF IRREDENTISM: ONE CONSEQUENCE OF IRRATIONAL GLOBALIZATION PANDERING RADICAL IRREDENTISTS
Radical irredentists may advocate redemption of the historically lost territories once owned by their nation of origin. Now well within the sovereignty of a foreign power. But are immigrants demanding lands be returned to Mexico? No. However, radical irredentists may subtly advocate "Conquest by Immigration." Demographics do matter. Increased population equates to amplified political power. Hispanics are largest US minority; having surpassed African-Americans. Such further nourishes paranoia.AN ILLUSTRATION: ARMED MINUTEMEN AT BORDERUnquestionably, ANGRY WHITE MALES = AWMs have a justifiable case. They have suffered the most from rampant globalization - emasculation. Illegal immigration caused of unwise globalization aggravates AWMs anger and resentment. However, resolution of Angry White Males' predicament has become almost impossible. Why? Because a majority refuse to acknowledge its true causation. No disease is cured without knowing its cause. No comprehensive plan, new business paradigm in unison with the government, to solve AWM problem remains possible. Because they would probably oppose it against their financial interest. Why? Hate-mongering, right-wing radio demagogues have radicalized the AWMs. Psychologically manipulating AWMs a fallacious BLAME-GAME MENTALITY. The reinforced message is: "Let's blame the little impoverished oppressed Mexican guy forced to immigrate; not our corporate sponsors of this radio program." Hate and blame are easily marketed commodities. Avoidance of the hard new way - laborious research and thinking to find a solution is ignored. The venom-spewers well-know human nature loves blaming another for failure. This explains why, in the elections, most Americans voted against their best economic interest. This Site's position regarding the Minutemen guarding our border is, without question, they have a moral and legally justifiable position. Exercising their constitutional right to redress of Grievances; and to peaceably assemble and protest. However, by unwisely arming themselves they do a self-defeating disservice to the cause. An inherent intimidation is created by bearing weapons under theses circumstances. This is self-defeating. Like shooting oneself in the foot before a marathon. credibility and public support could be lost by one idiotic incident. Brains, not bullets, will solved this problem; or, it will remain unresolved.
PROJECT AN EQUITABLE, COMPREHENSIVE RESOLUTION OF BORDER/IMMIGRATION CRISIS.[OBJECTION:
We object to the hubris of Mexican Government (and its Oligarchy of wealthy families) economically oppressing their people, then dumping the problem on our doorstep. Incredible, but true. Initial research indicates the easiest part of the solution is SEALING THE BORDERS. We mean "SEAL THE BORDERS" where illegal immigration is occurring!] COUNTERFEIT FAST-TRACK TRADECAFTA WITH MORE TO COMENO DEBATE - JUST AN UP OR DOWN VOTEAN INSULT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.TIME TO HIRE A NEW CONGRESS??? MOREOVERAN OPPORTUNITY FOR:PROSPECTIVE GREATNESS AND PROSPERITYA HISTORICAL OPPORTUNITY NEVER TO PRESENT ITSELF AGAIN WHICH WAY WILL WE CHOOSE?CAFTA, FTAA, FAST-TRACK --- OR CMA? REASONABLE GRADUAL GLOBALISMOrMAD-RUSH GLOBALIZATION-GREEDISM? NAFTA demonstrated U.S. free-trade? reaps economic, political and ethical bankruptcy. Its sister, CAFTA [The Central America Free Trade Agreement] is destined to contribute to this continuing dreadful catastrophe. NAFTA and CAFTA were surreptitiously designed. Contrived under autocratic [unconstitutional?] Fast-Track Trade authority. Meaning, they were negotiated, virtually in secret, without comprehensive public participation; or, knowledge of the enormous disadvantages involved. Programmed for constrained Congressional debate. To ensure subdued but swift enactment, they were intentionally calculated to circumvent the legislative process. No legislative amendments are permitted. Congress must adopt or reject CAFTA by a up or down vote.If Congress adopts, an economic tragedy will unfold. [Perhaps, irreversible]. Accelerating years of U.S. Middle-Class wealth Giveaways. Worst of all, passage will obstruct America’s capacity to negotiate genuine free trade within the Western Hemisphere. Causing a devastating loss and obliteration of prospective prosperity. On the other hand, a historic opportunity providing future prosperity is at-hand. The formulation of a valuable national trade policy. The Common Market of the Americas. A option and vision unlikely to present itself again.These treaties are not in America’s best interest. The public must demand rejection. Otherwise, with CAFTA’s passage, misery and misfortune looms on the horizon. Why? Because NAFTA and CAFTA are merely launching points for numerous bilateral global free-trade? agreements. After CAFTA’s implementation, the cataclysmic FTAA [The Free Trade of the Americas Agreement] is prearranged. Proponents falsely allege FTAA will finalize a free trade protective zone of North, Central and South America. In reality, this represents a calculated fiction and falsehood. Instead FTAA to encourage the greedism-monster of mad-rush globalization. Facilitating U. S. multinationals; and, these nations’ elitist classes [the oligarchies] to perpetrate the unimaginable. The rampant exploitation of the powerless. The people of the Americas. It is not exaggeration – CAFTA’s enactment will mark the mortality of the American Dream. We, the American people, are at the juncture when we must draw the line. Finally serving notice “Enough is enough.” The out-of- control downward spiral must be halted. A new vision must be instituted. Defeat of CAFTA, and subsequent related-legislation, is beyond crucial-critical importance. The following are self-evident reasons:[NOTE: This Site supports Fast-Track’s vision and ultimate objectives. Without question, strategy for protective capital investment must be implemented within the Western Hemisphere. The reality is some sort of capitalist free enterprise union is an absolute necessity; a matter self interest survival - self-preservation. This buffer strategy must offset the overwhelming boom-to-bust cycle activate in the third world. However,. this site vociferously disputes Fast-Track methodology and its feasibility. Why? Because NAFTA proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, Fast-Track-trade is a failure. Eventually, manufacturing production soon flees North, Central and South America for Third World mad-rush globalization.]However, Fast-Track schemes doom Western Hemisphere prosperity. Evidently visible upon a cursory NAFTA analysis. Therefore, we proposed our European Union-like substitute for Fast-Track. The Common Market of the Americas approach. This provides Western Hemisphere an opportunity to reconstruct its manufacturing production base. Advance manufacturing industries founded upon present and subsequent R&D. Most scientists would agreement mankind is perched upon the threshold of an exciting New Technological Age. After years of objective research, we are convinced our recommended CMA methodology will offer the Western Hemisphere a feasible FREE TRADE mechanism. Not only competing with; but superseding mad-rush globalization in productivity and NEW WEALTH. As the philosopher says,” THE FUTURE IS NOT NOW – THE FUTURE’S FUTURE IS NOW!!!”Undoubtedly, The Europeans are not dim-witted. They soon appreciated The Common Market integration model is the most feasible to produce future prosperity. Why? Because the EU paradigm is equivalent to the “United” within The United States of America.On the other hand, candidly, FAST-TRACK PSEUDO-FREE-TRADE is a harbinger of a chaotic American future. Continuing down the ill-fated NAFTA CAFTA, FTAA, FAST-TRACK path will terminate in calamity and upheaval.
FAST-TRACK-TRADE MUST BE REPEALED
FAST-TRACK-TRADE authority granted to the President by the Congress was a tragic mistake demanding REPEAL. FAST-TRACK conflicts with our Republican-Democracy. It nullifies our system and principles of government. Namely, creation of the OF LAW through the legislative processes of reasoned debate and compromise. To the contrary, FAST-TRACK advances negotiating secretive trade treaties. [NAFTA, CAFTA, FTAA etc.] NO extensive debate, no amendments, are tolerated. Just a take-it-or-leave-it - UP OR DOWN vote. This nullifies our representative democracy. Crushes cherished ideals for which many gave their lives. An insult to THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Who, in good faith, elected Congress and the President to represent their best economic interests.POLITICAL INSTABILITY:North, Central and South AmericaSome observers contend, from Belize to Tierra del Fuego, historically, oligarchic-aristocracies, in one form or another, dominated since the Conquistadors. Tenaciously retaining oppressive rule. . Unspeakable oppression.
Oligarchies’ greedy FEW prey upon the ensnared powerless. Lives subsisted in virtual involuntary servitude - bordering on slavery? Breaking Poverty’s bondage impossibleThese countries are notorious for inhumane treatment of their working population. Working conditions, worse than Mexico, far beyond the sweat shop. Particularly, including defenseless women or children. Child labor is paid slave-wages. [SEE: Labor Department Documents, stubbornly released, at the insistence of The Honorable Congressman Sander Levin.] Nevertheless, with modern communications [the internet], the oligarchies find it increasing difficult to suppress “the least of these.” Almost all [perhaps, excluding Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic] survive in varying stages of instability. Beneath the surface generational anger simmers. Impending violence awaits detonation. Remember??? The recent Central American wars? Mayhem in El Salvador. Atrocities in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua. Madness in Panama? Unending suffering, agonizing poverty, are ingredients in this devil’s brew. CAFTA represents ignited fuses on national powder-kegs. Its passage, along with FTAA, [and continued Fast-Track] will inflate POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Passage will solidify, exacerbate; eventually, explode the volcano. Spreading its toxic debris throughout Mexico, Central and South America; eventually, returning to the U.S. As the Philosopher says, “Never seek trouble, for trouble finds you soon enough.” The Kathy Lee Gifford Controversy?WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD?[NOTE: Remember Kathy Lee Gifford? Regarding Latin American obscene child slave-waged working conditions, Kathy bore little or no moral culpability. She was as much a victim as those victimized.]Nevertheless, the Gifford controversy exemplifies CAFTA’S further exploitation of child slave-waged labor. Incredibly, this is exactly what is transpiring in North, Central and South America. A major reason this Site vociferously opposes CAFTA; and, its subsequent evil twin FTAA. They epitomizes the depraved level such FAST-TRACK TRADE will reduce us. Kathy was unfairly accused and defamed. However, We, as a Nation, are well-cognizant of these misguided policies. The blunt truth is: We will be immorally complicit by allowing such malevolent trade agreements passage. CAFTA and FTAA transforms America into an active participant in the economic exploitation of the oppressed. Our silence as these are adopted, is equivalent to the wanton defilement of the under-classes of many nations. Creating an unspeakable national guilt. Rightfully, future generations will blame us. Chastising and indelibly marking us with infamy. Forever condemned as the worst of Hypocrites. Permitting our government to do to foreign children what we despised being done to our own? Why? Because, We, as citizens, are morally responsible for what our government does in our name. Where are the voices of the fundamentalists religionists? Where are their morally family values? We are intently listening, but hear only condemnatory silence. If CAFTA FTAA [and continued FAST TRACK TRADE] becomes the Law of our Land, then We can no longer innocently ask, WHY IS AMERICA HATED IN THE WORLD? TEDDY ROOSEVELT:A Honorable Conservative Busting The Pennsylvania Anthracite-Coalminers StrikeThe Breaker Boys = Child Labor LawsOur ethos, morals and ideals oppose enriching ourselves by abusing child slave-waged labor. In the early s, this was abundantly clarified. Teddy Roosevelt busted the Pennsylvania anthracite-coalminers strike. Although a politician, Teddy also was a man of character, honor and integrity. After secretive arrangements, he watched as sadistic mine-overseers hovered over - year olds with whips. Eagerly waiting to bludgeon them; quickening the work pace. These were enslaved Breaker Boys. After viewing their bloodied, broken, deformed hands, it is said, he wept. Hence, our Child Labor Law VIEWS OF OTHER PARTICIPANTS FOLLOW:Are we preaching, here? Damn, Right! "One day, The White Man will be selling The Great Spirit's water by the gallon to his brother." Chief Joseph LOSS OF THE MORAL HIGH GROUNDWE HAVE LOST OUR WAY! CAFTA = FURTHER RUINATION OF OUR NATIONAL REPUTATIONA MORAL AND ETHICAL CROSSROADS We stand at MORAL AND ETHICAL crossroads. Confronted with a moral dividing line in our Nation’s history. Our predicament? We must decide who we are. We must choose. Which way will it be? United with our brothers and sisters of the American? Or, blindly joining in the out-of-control disarray caused by mad-rush globalization.CAFTA will forever destroy future U. S. claims to the high moral ground. CAFTA, NAFTA, FTAA and FAST-TRACK-TRADE raise the serious moral questions for each citizen? Not to mention other the ethical, moral and practical considerations. It will destroy any future GOODWILL with the PEOPLE OF THE AMERICAS! Inflicting further hardship on defenseless souls who looked to our democracy for hope.If I would not want to be oppressed, should I facilitate another’s oppression? If we are Christians, as so many claim, should we not want for others the good things we desire for ourselves? Either we are a Nation based Judeo-Christian ethos; or, we are not. If we ARE not, then we have lost our way. Blind hypocrites aimlessly wandering on the consumerism road to perdition and oblivion? Jesus warned while restating The Law of Karma. “What you sow; so shall you reap.” Sow an evil seed, reap a calamitous poisoned harvest. For what goes around, surely, comes around.
WHO IS OUR NEIGHBOR – MY BROTHER?
Cain cemented God’s Wrath when The Father demanded to know, “Cain, where is your Brother Abel?” Cain arrogantly replied, “What? Am I now to be my Brother’s Keeper?” God answered by severe punishment. In effect, Yes you are to be your brother’s keeper, not murder him, and try to cover it up. Who did Jesus say our neighbor – our brother was. We are to be the Good Samaritan. All men and women are our brothers and sisters. Especially, when in need! All of us bonded as one in The Father’s Family Of Creation. [A Creation still in Evolution, as science knows, this very moment.] Every soul on Earth [especially the people of North, Central and South America] is our neighbor - brother and sister. They are in need of our help, not our injury by CAFTA. Think! Has that not been our Nation‘s purpose from its inception? The City On The Hill. To be a good example to the World! Our democracy represents self-reform and self-correction. America learns from its mistakes. Publicly washes its dirty laundry in Washington. Then hangs it up clean for all the World to see. That is why we call it Washing Town!Hello??? We are Americans. Adoption of CAFTA is an unacceptable un-American standard. Within our hemisphere we upgrade, not downgrade, standards of living. Hello??? Is anyone listening??? We know The Father is
IS NAFTA-MATH BEING USED IN CHINA TRADE?
DANGERS OF IMPORTED DEFECTIVE-COUNTERFEIT COMPONENT PARTSUSED IN NATIONAL SECURITY
There is a more anguishing question which must be publicized and confronted. Some consider it most important problem facing US economic and national security. Years ago, dutifully, the US media repeated covered stories re counterfeit defective component parts being exported to America. These defective parts were produced cheaply and dumped by third world producers. This not counterfeiting mere music and movies CDs. Rather, in all international trade, the quality of component parts is of strategic national security importance. Why? Because things break down?!% @*! All machines are constructed of component parts. Service of machinery is simply a matter of discovering the worn-out component part and replacing it with a new one. No problem. But, what if the "new" component part is a defective counterfeit. A part produced in a slaved-waged nation without quality control. Bluntly, what if the part is defective - a counterfeit cheaply dumped in US market. Let's say "bolts." Yes. The humble bolt is the thing which bolts machines together. If the bolts are defective, they crack under stress and pressure. Thus, the causation of a catastrophic machine failure. Such as, crash of an airplane; or, saints preserve us, a military helicopter. This means billion spent on US defense material could be undermined by usage defective component parts. Not only endangering our national defense - national security - but actually causing the loss of our kids in the military. Past media reports suggested this was a widespread problem.[These anguishing questions are difficult. But, each generation must be knowledgeable, responsible and mature enough to confront them. Especially, where lives and national security are at stake. This research creates sleepless nights. The Author]

WHY DEFEAT CAFTA? AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE PERILOUS FTAA = ''FREE TRADE FOR THE AMERICAS??? CAFTA SYMBOLIZES A CRUCIAL CROSSROADS FOR: THE U.S. ECONOMY, PROSPERITY, ETHICS AND HISTORY.
CAFTA'S PASSAGE>>>>>>WAS A SAD DAY FOR AMERICA>>> MEMBERS OF THE SENATE AND CONGRESS WHO ADOPTED IT, MUST BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE. FOR EACH KNEW CAFTA REPRESENTED THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE U.S. MIDDLE-CLASS; AND, THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA>>> COMING UP SOON: THE NAMES OF: THOSE DISLOYAL DEMOCRATS VOTING FOR CAFTA: CAFTA WAS DEAD WITHOUT THEIR VOTES!!!
******** CAFTA PASSAGE SAD DAY FOR AMERICA
July , ********
Eagerly, they searched for the devil to trade their souls. Finally, they located him. His name was CAFTA. House Republicans, with the support of Judas Democrats, at last advanced too far. They adopted CAFTA another un-free trade treaty.
Every time a Central American child ascends a garbage dump desperate for food and scraps to sell, Trillion Eons is affixed to their Hades sentence. The "Christian" GOP were championed by Committee Chair. Bill "The Blowhard" Thomas. [A pseudo-economist "par excel lance" with a corresponding opinion of himself.] The key unscrupulous work [twisting truth into falsity, and falsity into truth] was delegated to the self-aggrandizing Rep. E. Clay Shaw. Rather, the one-time major of Ft. Lauderdale. Preceding that: of exceptionally humble origins in N.E. Pennsylvania. A man who forgot from whence he came. One observer, "He's still got the coal dust under his nails."
No. E. Clay Shaw was not indicted by Oliver Stone in the J.F.K. assassination. No. The Thomas-Shaw malevolence is more fetid. The duplicitous betrayal of their fellow American's employment - JOBS!!!
The pompous Thomas-Shaw stampede of middle-class jobs into The Abyss secured them elitist Hades abodes. Their prearranged chores? For eternity, to transport cumbersome bundles of money used as sanitary paper for Hell's defecators.
Like Uncle Bubba's Mama says, "You see, Boys. In Hell, they're ain't nothin' to buy. Caus ya already sold what ya had - yur soul."
The Economist and "All of Us of the USA "No more. Time to draw the line in the soil."

IS OUR THREE TIERED DEMOCRACY ABOUT TO BECOME A TWO TIERED OLIGARCHY? IS AMERICA BECOMING A CORPORATE OLIGARCHY?
WHAT IMPACT DOES THIS HAVE ON OUR REPUBLICAN-DEMOCRACY?
HAVE WE FORGOTTEN WHO WE ARE?
We have forgot who we are! Americans are a nation of creative individuals and especially businessmen. We are builders, creators of shared wealth and prosperity founded on a meritocracy of individual effort. Supposedly, the harder you apply yourself - work - the greater your reward. We are not a nation of warriors!!! Constantly wasting our middle class wealth [taxes] policing the world. Although we must play our necessary part in keeping international peace. That must be secondary to the well-being of our citizens and nation. Obviously, FAST-TRACK AUTHORITY is unwise policy. Not the America way! Instead, logic dictates time has arrived for a comprehensive rethinking of the US economic paradigm.
Instead, a third U.S. realignment - rebirth – must occur. (Metamorphoses similar to post Revolutionary and Civil Wars.) Meaning: America must regroup its diffused economic strength concentrating it on rebuilding a st Century manufacturing base. Constructing "A st Century American Economic Renaissance." Regenerating defunct industries. A national and hemispheric revitalization - innovated by "A Year Technological Jump Forward." Until this is established as policy, the only pragmatic posture for average Americans is uncompromising OPPOSITION to unbridled FAST-TRACK A
