MORAL GUIDANCE -- THE GREATEST HAPPINESS FOR THE GREATEST NUMBER
Moral guidance, even upon recognizing a fractal nature of experiences, retains aspects of qualitative intuition that are irreducible to logical prescription. Even so, a vague pitch may help, to the Great Commandment and the Golden Rule. Consider: What should be done to enhance stable and meaningful fractal experiences and opportunities for the greatest number of the highest order?
Recognizing the fractal nature of our quantitative beingness, a method of fractal analysis of morality suggests itself. However, a moral prescription based on the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people (or fractals of experience) is not nearly as simple as it may first seem. Rather, every such moral analysis is complicated by quantitatively irresolvable conundrums concerning how to weight and compare different kinds of dimensions across several and various degrees.

Now that homosexual twits have de-defined marriage to use it as a battering ram to demolish the Fed's limitation to enumerated powers, I see some twits are now trying to distinguish polygamy. They are all over the mound on this, like you would see on an angry anthill.
I saw where one tries to argue that, unlike "gay marriage," there is a principled reason to stand against polygamy. Lol! In essence, he made the argument that polygamy results in a third world, two class, cheap labor economy. Duh. That's what the oligarchy wants! Access to cheap labor and protection against uppity middle classers!
A Scotus that can, without smirking, say there is no legitimate reason to distinguish gay marriage is a Scotus that can say there is no legitimate reason to distinguish polygamy. What are these objectors? Cultural bigots? Polygamy phobes? Lol.
Sure, polygamy tends to result in some men being deprived of mating opportunities. But hey, are there no goats? Are there no prostitutes? And aren't there more homosexual men than women? Why should they not be instructed, you know, just to re-orient themselves? Can't they learn to adopt? Or clone? Moreover, doesn't depriving the lessers of stud rights help improve the gene pool? And what's so bad about an Arab society, anyway? Isn't it cultural bigotry to claim superiority?
Hey, Kennedy clerks (idiots): Social recognition of marriage restricted to a man and a woman tends to serve (not guarantee) numerous legitimate purposes. It prevents pervs from "marrying" just so they can gain access to adopt, groom, and re-school children. Or just so they can engage in tax abuse and voting schemes. It can help society incent potential parents to make the hard sacrifices to raise a next generation of soldiers, defenders, and producers. It can tend generally to induce better homes for children than would otherwise be the case. It can provide a rational way to encourage responsible orientation, without needlessly bullying or grooming anyone. It can put emphasis more on protecting children than on "normalizing" the abnormal. Few people had a problem understanding this -- until we got a metro-demented majority on Scotus.
The ruling by Scotus has nothing to do with higher principles, law, or the Constitution. What it has to do with is the influence of corrupt, monied, perpetually infantile, and sex-addled interests. As more wealthy Muslims jihad-by-immigration to America, the pressure among monied oligarchs to bend Scotus to approve of polygamy as a Constitutionally recognized and fundamental right (of human dignity! -- lol) under the 14th Amendment will become irresistible. The attempt by "principled" gays to distinguish polygamy to say it is not a form of Constitutionally protected marriage is nothing if not hysterical. Next, will we see t-shirts for "Gays With Principles And Against Polygamy"? Lol. (Oops, Laughing at gays is politically incorrect. Only laughing at straights is pc. Like, at this point, I gaf.)
It appears that those patterns that can self replicate tend to reach critical mass, then to precude settlement among themselves of competing patterns. Tenured Prog Profs resist infiltration by, or tenure for, non-Progs. Ghettoes become self sustaining, to such a point that 95% of their inhabitants will always vote against anything that may possibly improve conditions.
It has become clear that many theorists of social critical mass (critical race and gender theorists) want to divest most people, including self-sufficient Americans, of all of their liberty. What we are seeing is much like a free-falling panic towards totalitarianism. They want to get it done now, while Americans are in retreat. They want to establish social security under the diktat of elitist rulers in trade for subjugation of the dignity of individual responsibility. Because Obama comes from ancestors who owned slaves, this is not surprising.
The principle is less one of the selfish gene than of the selfish (enserfing) meme. This principle likely applies to blood-sucking bureaucrats and their crony bosses. Even Republican governors and AG's have to contend with a civil service that is largely infested with blood suckers. Not even St. Reagan was able to make much of a dent against profligate gov spending and waste. Is there a single state capital whose residents do not lean prog?
Unless the Tree of Liberty is periodically watered with the blood of these suckers (Spill their blood, less so the blood of martyrs!), the Tree soon falls into a state of critical sickness. Until a strong voice of reason and inspiration rides on a sustained, cleansing, and culling whirlwind, America may have about as much chance of reversing this sickness unto death as a ghetto has of ever electing a leader of good sense. Until then, we must keep the faith and prepare to seize opportunities. COS may afford the last peaceable alternative -- if our governors and leaders can acquire the foresight of Mark Levin.
America is being pulled back into default condition, to be buried in the goo and mire of the collective. Liberty existed for a time, but only in respect that each adult was availed dignity to have his own relationship with the higher Principler (God) -- with no mortal asserting a right to overrule that relationship. The only intermediary between liberty-miinded adults and God was an assimilative and filtering construct for decency, such as Jesus.
Under the ideals of an earlier America, criminals, tares, and people unfit to be entrusted with responsibility for themselves were filtered out. Little tolerance was accorded for anyone who claimed to be entitled to rule as a living god or messenger-mouthpiece for god. God blessed these independent Americans and allowed them to become prosperous.
Unfortunately, many people came to believe their prosperity was of their own, with no guidance needed from God. And so they fell away from God. Thus was opened a vacuum for new sources of practical, economic, and political guidance. Into this vacuum were sucked and pushed all manner of evil and unsuitable replacements. Matter became reconceptualized (Gaia). Egalitarian entitlementism (Marxism) was conflated with political economics. Parasitic predation was reclassified as holy (Islam). Independent Americans were branded as illigitimate ("Whiteys"), and they were therefore made targets by all. The most unprincipled and vile of the targeteers became the treasonous-to-human-dignity international-crony-oligarchs.
To speak truth has become to forfeit your livelihood. Not even billionaires are immune. A billionaire who tells the truth about illegal immigrants will be as denounced as Donald Trump. Or Emmanuel Goldstein.
This consortium of demons sprang from Pandora's box and spread its ooze and goo deep, far, and wide -- filling the world with an evil, collectivist-minded meme that has buried human decency at the bottom of the slime. Now, all human enterprise and expression are collectivized. Gov is made the new god, and the priests of old are replaced. New interlopers, intermediaries, and mouthpieces are empowered. They are the flatterers, interpretors, persecutors, inquisitors, and agglomerators. The rainbow coalition of criminals, prosecutors, liars, and connivers. Felons, addicts, perverts, child groomers, traitors, barkers, race hustlers, pushers, pimps. Pols, bankers, macro-scientists, profs, journalists, entertainers.
In this muck and mire, small and independent businesses are looted and routed. All who wish to do business must kiss the rings of corporatists and their shills and thugs. One ring rules all: The ring of the absolutely depraved. UnderRule by UnterMensch allows no individual liberty or independent responsibility. Anyone who says or does anything that is not approved by the ruling circle of ring knockers will be buried in a muck of blame by ThugTroopers, to be branded as haters and phobes. All speech that is unapproved is branded as hate speech. All resistance to child grooming is branded as child abuse. All efforts to reestablish liberty are shot down as being anti-diversity, chauvenistic, bigoted, and racist.
We are now in the twilight zone, at the intersection of Orwell and Huxley Streets. The smothering of human liberty is our default condition. We have been here before. We will not crawl back out until we lose our pride of being independent of God and regain our personhood to not bow to demon collectivizers.
There may be some good American oligarchs, rare though they may be. I share your hope that they will feel called to do what they can to help restore the republic. What do you think of Trump?
The problem with crony capitalism is not that it is an oxymoron that should be replaced with crony socialism or crony corporatism. The problem is that crony (nomenklatura) socialism and crony (oligarchic) corporatism exist. The problem with crony control over Congress is not solved with word games.
Re: Are the big corporations that colluded to give us Obamacare going to make bigger profits for a while but then be put out of business? I suspect so. The corporations may only care to make temporary profits. But I think the Democrats are motivated to eventually ax them.
That's the nub! I think this: The republic (and world) is beset by a three way tug by packs of carnivores (Marxists, Muslims, and Monopolists) that is ripping us apart. Which pack will rip off the biggest chunks of meat? I don't know. I think each pack expects it will prevail. I doubt any one among them is likely to make enduring common cause with the prey (republic) that is being ripped apart, except where there may be supposed some short term advantage.
So, there may sometimes be some dithering advantage in selling some colleges to some oligarchs. However, much more than that will be needed to restore us to any semblance of health.
There is this: If enough colleges were to become profit making enterprises, maybe at least some would become ground for nurturing representative republicanism.
But see http://nymag.com/daily/intelli... "Harvard is a real-estate and hedge-fund concern that happens to have a college attached." One might say that Harvard and its ilk are concerns for the propagation of elitist rule under a pretense of social justice. It would be interesting to take away its tax exemption, so that donors might learn that the money they bequeath "to their alma mater would partially or fully be heading to the state.”
Well, riddle me this: Do you expect profit-oriented entrepreneurs to buy colleges and then disdain easy profits?
Re: "WHOEVER owns/runs the colleges will become oligarchs"
That's just not what I said. As a biologist, you know that most animals TEND to look for watering holes, to get hydrated and seek food. Some animals seek to feed on others. Some are "farmers," like spiders that store their food. Colleges attract easy prey, so they will tend also to attract predators. NOT EVERYONE who comes to the watering hole will be a predator, but those who control access to the watering hole will TEND to be predators.
I would like to hope that enlightened people or consortiums of means would buy up colleges and provide enlightening educations. I would like to hope that enlightened people would buy up news stations and provide enlightening access to news. I would like to hope that employers would tend to prefer well rounded and liberally educated (in the classical sense) graduates. I just don't think hope, by itself, is a strategy.
What I see are TV news stations that are not worth watching. And I see employers hiring non-American graduates because they are cheaper. I see colleges declining to flunk students because they want their gov-funded tuition payments. The profit in education is from the lowest-common-denominator students who are undisciplined, who borrow their tuition from Uncle Sugar. Those students want to be told they are special (or gifted warriors for social justice), and they lack the focus to care about objective or quality education.
I see a "kinder and gentler" form of corrupt culture in which oligarchs have made peace with nomenklatura by each scratching the other's back. So, what I don't see is a quick fix to our problems by turning over the control of our institutions to private corporations.
Indeed, I think the lack of a check and balance against undue influence from, and entanglement with, international corporatists is a big part of why our republic is being dissolved beneath our feet. We have misplaced the recipe for a decent republic, and I just don't believe a quick fix is available. Fascism is fascism -- whether it's imposed by a knowitall nomenklatura or a wantitall aristocracy/oligarchy. It took ages to produce an America, but an alliance of nomenklatura and oligarchs has stomped on our cake.
The way out of fascism is not to favor one form of it over another. We need a way to incent free enterprise that does not expose us to corporatism that buys our politicians. The ingredients for the recipe include checks and balances, but form is not enough. The ingredients must also include faith, family, assimilated fidelity. Vipers have poisoned those ingredients. Anti-social-values and fiscal-conservatives will not lead us to recovery by increasing the dosage of poison.
I think less in terms of linearity than in terms of cycles, twists, spins, feedback-spinbacks. Nature functions to reward the swift, strong, and stupid as well as the slow, sociopathic, and sly. Wealth and power tend to stick together.
National socialism needed its useful idiots to make its big lies effective. It also needed financing and industrial help from America's oligarchs. Wherever you find a thriving nomenklatura, you will tend to find an invested oligarchy. Communists would be without guideposts to set prices without any markets to make reference to.
The middle class is defined as middle because it opposes the easily bribed and often desperate lower class as well as the class that seeks to "pull up the ladders." So, yes, the idiot class and the crony class tend to use and align with one another to take from and disempower the middle class.
An entrepreneur can seek to build a better light bulb, and/or he can seek to use gov to consolidate his power. Edison succeeded over Tesla because Edison was a better crony capitalist. Elon is now living the tension.
It's hard for me to believe that any reasonably intelligent person who is educated in science, economics and history can possibly believe in godless communism. I can, however, see how such a person could easily be seduced to godless oligarchism. So, yes, oligarchs rely on big lies to seduce commies. Their servants and shills, the ones who are intelligent, are wannabes who know how and by whom their bread is buttered. The true believing commies are just fools, even if dangerous fools. Except possibly in the sciences, the people they promote as their profs, race pimps, and prezzies tend to have IQs that do not register even a standard deviation above average.
A person who "grubbers" politicians and governments as if they were investments in speculation and hedging is a crony farmer of people. Examples of the two class system of people farmers and farmed people abound. There is Soros, as a young man, trusted by Nazis to dig for gold fillings among the dead and wounded. There is the Spook in Pulp Fiction. There is Congress, posing for the people while pimping for plutocrats. There is academia, posing as environmental scientists to help "progress" the schemes of oligarchs. There are Progs, posing as moral agents for egalitarianism, while they work incessantly for the Ultimate Soulslaver and blasphemer against human decency and liberty. There is Scotus, profaning the law while pretending to uphold it. And there is Prezy, saluting the "love" of homohomos, while paving the way to groom children and destroy the republic.
Btw, it's not the 1 percenters. That's a ruse to go after successful small business owners among the middle class. It's more like the .0001 percenters, who sell their souls and engage in the crony-corporatist monopolizing of political favors in order to gain wealth and power.
If this isn't conspiracy, then the word means nothing:
See http://dailycaller.com/2015/06...
“For decades, the ordinary procedure in the Senate has been that in order to move to proceed to take up a debt ceiling increase, 60 senators must vote in favor of the motion,” he said. Cruz said the leadership asked senators to agree to a 50-vote threshold for the debt ceiling legislation.
The GOP leadership, Cruz writes, wanted Republicans to agree to this so “Democrats would then have the votes to raise the debt ceiling on their own. We could all vote no. This way, we could return home and tell the voters that we had opposed raising the debt ceiling, right after consenting to let it happen.”
“Most senators seemed perfectly fine with the leadership’s proposal,” Cruz writes. “There were nods and murmurs of assent.” Cruz said that for him, it “was too much.”
********
All checks and balances have been de-defined to let loose upon us packs of wolves. Constitution, republic, borders, family, churches, foundations, charities, history, science, logic -- all corrupted.
The monster is the two-class society of commie sheeple and their farming, entrepreneurial oligarchs. To alternate the face of the monster between the commies and the oligarchs would do nothing to help the middle class of decent Americans. Power needs to be checked and balanced if a system is to nurture any hope of emerging decency. Our problem is that nothing is in place to represent the middle class or to check against the empowered corruption of the commies and their oligarchic allies.
Next up -- Educational and Ecclesiastical Entrepreneurism. https://www.startchurch.com/se.... Amway Mega Churches. http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/.... "When you have pastors thinking of themselves as CEOs, it's hard to tell the difference between a pastor and P-Diddy...."
I wonder how many for profit churches we already have, directly or indirectly? Church of Cannabis? Church of Rich Cardinals? Oligarchs may as well start buying and selling stock in organizations for training the minds of useful sheeple. Surely, the franchising headquarters keep watchful eyes on the money flow, and adjust higher salaries for rainmakers accordingly.
Coalitions are already at work: "[L]obbying Congress to make it easier for the IRS to investigate and punish rule-breakers as a way of increasing tax receipts. Currently, the IRS is effectively prevented from doing so both because it would start a political firestorm and because of the Church Audit Procedures Act of 1984, which maintains that investigations can take place only with the blessing of a "high-level Treasury official." http://www.newsweek.com/are-ch...
Unless all charitable tax incentives are removed, the lobbyists for the oligarchic regime will continue to disproportionately profile and target those church organizations that serve Conservers of Liberty instead of the Choom-Duping of America.
Progs who said polygamy would not be next now say they see no problem with polygamy. IOW, no problem with Arab societies. Many Progmen and Progwomen WANT to be kept in harems.
A church whose only focus is on the hereafter tends soon to be seen as irrelevant to the here and now. A church that believes in a god who is without power to alter what the church believes to be predetermined is a church that may as well believe in a perverse Gaia or an allah powerful nightmare of a "god." A church that does not believe in a God who cares about and reconciles us in our participatory wills is a church that is irrelevant to sensible decency.
A church whose only purpose is seen to love everyone, without discriminatory judgment in standards, soon becomes unable to redeem anyone. A church that is unable to inspire receptivity to God except in bafflegab soon ceases to inspire its thinkers.
Too many of our churches have been coopted by immediate gratifiers who call themselves "lovers." "Love" now means forced grooming of children. Having schooled and groomed our children in our schools, our new "lovers" now seek to groom our children in our churches.
In main, immediate gratifiers have succeeded in "walling off" our churches from being vehicles for inspiring or helping to build a better society in our public places. Our churches are rapidly emptying. They are seeking to replenish themselves by appealing to youth who have been indoctrinated as immediate gratifiers. They have become less places of responsible discussion, reflection, and receptivity than places of celebration for immediate, passing, and mindless inspiration. Chooming.
Many of our churches have voluntarily become facilitators for our passage -- from a society that encourages the responsible participation of competent families -- to a two class society that wants to put all responsibility on an imaginary construct of Big Gov, which is manned by incompetent and god-perverted statists and controlled by a corrupt and godless oligarchy.
In main, our churches have abandoned their mission to serve God and provide charity. Many have chosen to ally with Big Gov to provide "charity" with money not given by, but taken from, other people. Our churches have made Big Gov their higher church. Spiritually, they have made many of the faithful without a church home. At this point, what difference does it make whether one worships at Big Church, Big Gaia, or Big Brother?
As things stand, ideals of godliness are banned from the public square, churches are replacing the disciplined faithful with the immediately gratifying, and charity has been subcontracted to godless oligarchs bent on grooming god-perverted choomers.
All of society's incentives for preserving itself through the generations, including tax incentives, are going to people and corrupted institutions that are bent on destroying and replacing decent society. The ideals of marriage, responsible parenthood, and charity have all been coopted and de-defined. And many of our churches have been the willing facilatators! Of what we incent and fund, we will get more. It's past time to withdraw the tax exemption for churches. What we need to incent are churches that do not rely on bribes for choomers from agents for oligarchs. Foundations, no less than churches, need also to be deprived of their tax exemptions.
A student of economics may wish to do a study to cut through Gov BS. I would like to see spin-free graphs for comparing the job market in America for the years 1970 to present. Yearly Factors: Average total population; average population in age group of 22 to 55 (peak working years); average number of jobs held for 35 or more hours per week (full time jobs); percentage of population in peak working years holding full time jobs; percentage change of population in peak working years holding full time jobs; increase in national debt; increase in national debt per peak worker; and percentage increase in national debt per peak worker.
I would especially like to see how each year of the presidencies of Carter, Clinton, and Obama compare with Reagan, Bush Elder and Bush Younger, in terms of percentage of population in peak working years holding full time jobs and in terms of percentage increase in national debt per peak worker.
Such spin-free graphs would likely avail insight into what tends to improve America's economic competitiveness versus what tends to restrain it. Once given those raw facts, I would like to see various politicians spin their analyses to try to explain how various world events, wars, regulations, and national policies contributed to the changes in those raw facts through the years. Make the graphs available to every presidential candidate, and then ask them how their proposals would help or hurt America's economic outlook. Bottom line: How do we get a bigger percentage of working age Americans back to productive work (as opposed to gov make work and gov welfare)?
Femi-despots have to put America down because otherwise they can never rest easy that independent minded, competent, free thinkers will not rise again. Free minded thinkers must never be un-hunted. They pose too much danger to the prison collective. Despots do not serve truth, liberty, or justice. They serve themselves --- by lying to themselves and by lying to easily fooled collectives.
Eisenhower, Marshall, Hopkins, FDR. Poor McCarthy just did not know how deep and far the commie control went. Eisenhower was a good man, but he appears to have calculated, like Marshall, that he could not stand solidly for a house cleaning against the commie infestation because such a cleaning would have brought down the house. Seeing everyone lining up against McCarthy, Eisenhower made a pragmatic decision. He had already seen Churchill get replaced by a Socialist. America has been McCarthyed, Birched, and Borked ever since.
Excepting Cruz (and possibly Trump), which of the wannabes of either Party is not a tin pot puppet for despots? All the brand names, now including Schwarzenegger, are just choosing sides among rival gangs of oligarchs. Excepting Cruz (and possibly Trump), they all think the ideal of America as a representative republic is a cooked goose. They're just jockying for their slice of the meat.
Among the various contenders (excepting Cruz) for the ring to rule the establishment, what difference does the contest make to any American? What more can Scotus and the regime do, that has not already done or that it is not already in position to do or lining up to do? What are Republicans doing to preserve the republic? What are Liberals doing to preserve liberty? Answer: N o t h i n g. What they are doing is working together to destroy both liberty and the republic.
am more concerned about the coup that no one wants to talk about at home. Have most U.S. institutions been united in a coup against the republic? So far as our main institutions are concerned, is the coup virtually over? Cruz seems to be correct, that the world is in flames. We have our own lineup of tinpot puppet despots.
There is a run underway against freedom. Progs smell fear like sharks smell blood. Progs fear the elimination of fear. Fear is how they make their ghettoes self sustaining. Fear is why up to 95% of them will vote against anything that may possibly improve their conditions.
"Critical Studies" profs want to divest most people, including self-sufficient Americans, of all of their liberty. They want people to be "secure in the collective," and that is accomplished by taking away their individual freedom.
What we are seeing is much like a free-falling panic towards totalitarianism. Progs want to get it done now, while Americans are in full retreat. Obama comes from ancestors who owned slaves, so this is not surprising.
The principle is less one of the selfish gene than of the selfish (enserfing) meme. This principle applies to blood-sucking bureaucrats and their crony bosses. Even Republican governors and AG's have to contend with a civil service that is largely infested with blood suckers. Not even Reagan was able to make much of a dent against profligate gov spending and waste. Is there a single state capital whose residents do not lean prog?
Peak Leftism? Not a chance. Progs have much more on their agenda. The chance for peaceable reform via a convention of states will tend to grow dimmer with the passing of each day.
Truth telling? There may be a chance, if enough people have become aware of how corrupt our institutions have become and have had enough of it so that they will not be intimidated by the ankle biters who seek to bring down every truth teller. Even our churches have tended towards becoming enabling fellow travelers! The ankle biters will try to bring down early truth tellers, like Trump, to discourage all potential others. We are waist deep in the muck of vermin, ankle biters, and traitors.
Oligarchs self select by playing the profit game above all others. They look silly when they pretend to be governed by other principles. They change and hedge their investments depending on how the culture changes and presents opportunities for being sheared. When there's money in going with a hatefest surge in the culture, oligarchs go for it. They went for the stars and bars when it was profitable. They turn against it when it is not. Their rationalizations are just lies for shearing all the useful sheeple.
Nor are the mob sheeple principled. They just bleat and run depending on which way the sheepdog is instructed to push them. Sheeple are trained to run for treats and away from bites, and they are told their path is "just." Al Sharpton is just a Shill Sheep for profiteers. After he does his thing, he is enriched while "his people" are looted.
A representative republic cannot survive the dumbing down of its citizenry into third world sheeple. Nomenklatura and straw bosses for cronies are flipping demographics and pulling people back into muck and mire, worldwide. They want their shoes shined and their berries picked -- cheaply. They have little understanding of the pressures they are building beneath.
"Principled" sheeple and cronies. What a fergustinian farce!
It appears a fetus has only the dignity of Schrodinger's Cat. It doesn't become a person unless and until the mother decides to notice it as such. Presumably, if the mother says, "Oh well, I intended to abort anyway," then the killing of the fetus is, at most, an assault on the woman who happens to be carrying it. Alternatively stated, the womb is an alternate reality / memory hole. Lol.
In one universe, the shooter is a murderer. In the other, he is an abortionist. Until the mother decides, he is half murderer/half abortionist. This is how the post-modern reality-wave works. The reality wave concerning the woman does not collapse until she decides. Similarly, our Constitution has no reality until Scotus decides.
Now that homosexual twits have de-defined marriage to use it as a battering ram to demolish the Fed's limitation to enumerated powers, I see some twits are now trying to distinguish polygamy. They are all over the mound on this, like you would see on an angry anthill.
One says gay marriage is unisexual while polygamy entails more than one sex. Well alrighty then! What about polygamy/polyamory? Should not two dignified and married gays be entitled to invite a third? Another argues that, unlike "gay marriage," there is a principled reason to stand against polygamy. Lol! In essence, he argues that polygamy results in a third world, two class, cheap labor economy. Duh. Let me emphasize this: That's what the oligarchy wants! Access to cheap labor and protection against uppity middle classers! The NWO is nothing if not third-world oriented.
A Scotus that can, without smirking, say there is no legitimate reason to distinguish gay marriage is a Scotus that can say there is no legitimate reason to distinguish polygamy. What are these objectors? Cultural bigots? Polygamy phobes? Lol.
Sure, polygamy tends to result in some men being deprived of mating opportunities. But hey, are there no goats? Are there no escorts? And aren't there more homosexual men than women? Why should they not be instructed, you know, just to re-orient themselves? Can't they learn to adopt? Or clone? Moreover, doesn't depriving the lessers of stud rights help improve the gene pool? And what's so bad about an Arab society, anyway? Isn't it cultural bigotry to claim superiority?
Hey, Kennedy clerks (idiots): Social recognition of marriage restricted to a man and a woman tends to serve (not guarantee) numerous legitimate purposes. It prevents pervs from "marrying" just so they can gain access to adopt, groom, and re-school children. Or just so they can engage in tax abuse and voting schemes. It can help society incent potential parents to make the hard sacrifices to raise a next generation of soldiers, defenders, and producers. It can tend generally to induce better homes for children than would otherwise be the case. It can provide a rational way to encourage responsible orientation, without needlessly bullying or grooming anyone. It can put emphasis more on protecting children than on "normalizing" the abnormal. Few people had a problem understanding this -- until we got a metro-demented majority on Scotus. This is common sense. We have history. We don't need to commision global-warmng scientists with billions to study it. Since when did a page of history become of less worth than a pound of Prog "logic"?
The ruling by Scotus has nothing to do with higher principles, law, or the Constitution. What it has to do with is the influence of corrupt, monied, perpetually infantile, and sex-addled interests. As more wealthy Muslims jihad-by-immigration to America, the pressure among monied oligarchs to bend Scotus to approve of polygamy as a Constitutionally recognized and fundamental right (of human dignity! -- lol) under the 14th Amendment will become irresistible. The attempt by "principled" gays to distinguish polygamy to say it is not a form of Constitutionally protected marriage is nothing if not hysterical. Next, will we see t-shirts for "Gays With Principles And Against Polygamy"? Lol. (Oops, Laughing at gays is politically incorrect. Only laughing at straights is pc. Like, at this point, I gaf.)
Well, I added ZeroHedge to my fav's.
Regarding Growth: I have often wondered why growth should be desired, just for the sake of growth. My gut reaction is that a "decent" way needs to be found to vastly reduce growth by reducing the population, without sacrificing a sustainable pursuit of knowledge. However, I have no good reason to suppose we can reasonably manage such a goal, especially without assimilating faith.
Regarding practicality: It would hardly seem "decent" to intentionally stymie growth in a way that precludes any hope for the many third world nations and economies that subsist at the most desperate of levels.
So long as we share the globe with such nations, we seem called: first, to defend ourselves from their forms of sickness; second, to help spread growth to relieve their agonies in ways that will not make us hosts for perpetual parasites.
For both said callings, we need policies that will help our work force remain efficiently productive. To measure what can work, we need access to more objective facts. I think we need a measure that will help us appreciate how well the average worker is carrying his share of the changes (increases) in the nation's indebtedness. I have not found any graphs for that. I will keep my eyes open, and maybe I will find some that get close.
Freedom of association should have been implicit in the First Amendment. But it was lost with the lunch counter protests and the federally intrusive extension of the 14th Amendment. It was sacrificed to gov enforcement for respecting the dignity of everyone. Everyone, that is, except the individually competent producers of America. I can see the need for equal access to law and public facilities. But, in this day and age, I no longer see the need to enlist gov to force people to be nice to one another in all things. I no longer see the need to force a private business, under pretense that it benefits from public protection and is therefore a "public facility," to be accomodating or nice to everyone. Unless a business is a corporation, it seems to me that we have reached a stage where every private owner of a home or business should be entitled to invite or refuse access or association to anyone he chooses.
We have tried the idea of a gov enforced, fundamental entitlement in everyone to be treated with equal dignity. It is not working. Dignity is too amorphous a concept. It is too stretchable by whatever the corrupt regime that happens to have agglomerated power. It is turning civilization upside down, to require individually competent American producers to equally redistribute all manner of stuff and niceties to socially incompetent thugs and gang bangers. The cost of trying to give disadvantaged people a hand up has turned into a permanent hand out for classes of professional parasites. It has led to the monopolization of every social institution by professional parasites. Losers, looters, grubers, groomers, dopers, dupers, pimps, prostitutes, race hustlers and sex addlers.
Unless freedom of association is restored, the dregs of dregs will mercilessly pull America down into the muck and mire of the lowest levels of ignorance and corruption. What we are seeing is the Africanization, Arabization, Homosexualization, Metrosexualization, Demonization, and Cannibalization of America. These cannibals and bullies will never stop. First they come for Trump. Then they come for everyone who dares to speak truths. Unless these Thugtroopers are confronted, it will be fascism all the way down. Evil feeds itself by agglomerating. It starts small and soon becomes formidable. It grows wild as competent individuals lose their freedom to disassociate themselves and their children from it.
The Left is obsessed with putting a boot on your face. It's boots on faces, all the way down. Race and sex are just pretext for fascist, goosestepping sadomasochism. This propensity is drilled into them from Lefty parents, Lefty schools, Lefty pols, and Lefty homies and gang bangers. It's a cycle that, once started, thumb sucks everything into its orbit -- unless forcefully stopped. Infantpede. Childhood's End -- open howling infant mouths swirling round the globe. Once infants are promoted to alphas, reason is dead. It's not the zombies or abbies we have to fear. It's the perpetual infants.
I am not opposed to natural law, per se. I just think it is necessarily consistent with the law of the Reconciler. In that respect, I also advocate for natural law -- with a proviso. That is, I doubt the wisdom of those who advise "natural law" who think they can discern correct moral answers in Gaia which are beyond the guidance that is entailed with humble receptivity to the Reconciler. I fully appreciate physics and materiality. I just believe the natural law of materialism is subordinate to the spiritual law of the Reconciler.
In part, I think this because we do not sense any physical thing directly in itself. We do measure relationships that reliably renormalize and conform to certain algorithms --- but, except in the sense of truisms, not always. I have personally experienced too many hair raising coincidences, even though I fully appreciate that a statistician could "explain" every one of them as being within the range of the non-miraculous. (Actually, that seems not so hard to do. All you need do is imagine enough universes. Then, like Jimmy Buffet says, "It's always 5:00 somewhere.")
It seems beyond us to fathom how much of nature is preset versus how much is subject to interventions of feedback-recalibration. Especially since the interventions themselves would not be inconsistent with the algorithms that define and limit our degrees of participatory freedom.
Can a notion of a Reconciler who actually "walks with us" be conceptualized that accords respect for spiritual relationships with the Godhead, even as it remains consistent with utmost respect for the proper domain of empiricism? I believe such a conceptual model is possible. Moreover, I think it would, by and large, be consistent with the most important teachings of the Bible. And no, I don't believe the Cosmos was created in 7 Earth days.
Liberals lost their minds when they went off the rails of liberty and into the maw of fascism. They call this egalitarian progress.
This is what happens when society tells its infants they are alphas.
Try social vandalism, leading people astray, promotion of insanity and anarchy, political connivery and manipulation, and abusing the system --- to see if you like it. S/
Many Progs espouse that God is dead. They are "as sane as Nietzsche." Lol.
A visiting interstellar traveler would think our civilization is ruled by sodomites, idiots, mutilators, dopers, gang bangers, social pyramiders, pimps, race pimps, bu tt waggers, and whiners. Even given this chaos, the people of the "God is dead" philosophy would have it that decent civ has no need of any assimilating moral philosophy. However, if you believe in (or find your salving social purpose in) an assimilating moral philosophy for civilized perspectives of consciousness, then you believe in a God. You just tend to call it Gaia. Or Gov. Semantics.
Some thought the Left would be satisfied if we made many of their antics legal. Not so. Now they move on to try to make us and our kids pay for their antics. Learn to love their antics; celebrate them; sacrifice our kids and culture to them.
A perpetual infant, like a dog on a long and tangled leash, will pull you around and around and make messes everywhere as long as you let him think he is alpha. A visiting interstellar traveler would think our civilization is ruled by sodomites, idiots, mutilators, dopers, gang bangers, social pyramiders, pimps, race pimps, bu tt waggers, and whiners. Infant pride.
Small clumps lead quickly to patterns of large clumps. This is how bodies accumulate in relatively flat orbits, such as our solar system and asteroid belt. It's how colleges come to be dominated by Prog Profs. And why ghettos become incapable of electing decent leaders. It's how small and determined tribes agglomerate power in banking, business, government, media, and entertainment. It's how commies made a march through all our institutions. It's how muslims and commies now occupy many seats at the highest levels of power. It's why Islam is an existential threat. Given Islam's history, it's mind boggling that so many Lefties fantasize that we can coexist peacefully with it. We are surrounded by flaming effing idiots.
Timely warning! Western Civ is surrendering. First, to women whose minds have not matured beyond little girl stage, who have somehow been promoted to alphas and who now sit on important seats, such as at Scotus, as well as to grown men who want to be little girls. But a Second stage will follow. The Second stage will follow because no society formed to serve little girls and men who want to be little girls can defend itself against the forces that are endemic to a world riven with evil. All these little girls and girlymen that now define Western Civ will be nothing but hot butter once they have been allowed to redefine us. Progs are nothing if not unenlightened knuckle draggers parading in pink tights and stuffed panties. Cute baby girl chimps. Something you might have expected to find at the Spahn Ranch back in the days of another famous Prog, Charlie Manson.
Everyone should read the article Joe Joe cited.
Progdom must be stopped! Progs and Prog nations have gone insane. They are not guided by any sensible limits. Progs have a lot of things they want to use to classify Conservers of Liberty as if they were thought criminals. Progs begin with making it prosecutable/fine-able "hate speech" to communicate any opinion or data that would support an opinion that traditional marriage carries any social value that is superior to homosexual genital rubbing. But Baby Girly Progs do not stop there. Progs also want to put all brains in a strait jacket so they cannot communicate about a lot of things.
Such as: Should denial of global warming be a crime? Is any culture inferior to American culture? Should Muslims and Nambla'ns be precluded from forcing a lower age of consent? Should State dregs not be permitted to groom school kids to gaydom? Should disadvantages of polygamous cultures be precluded from being studied or discussed? Should opinions against abortion be prohibited? Should complaints about halal compliant meals be prohibited? Should complaints against Islamic mutilation of genitalia be prohibited? Should opinions or data gathering against non-Christian religions and philosophies and Gaia based moralities be prohibited? Should protests against forced redistribution of property and wealth be outlawed? Should businesses be fined for refusing to serve anyone on any ground? Should a business be entitled to close its doors to a gang of heavily armed and obvious criminals? Should a parent be fined for raising his child to think about any religious or moral values that are not approved by the State? Should a woman be fined for phobic resistance to the unwanted advances of a well connected Prog? Should it be criminal hate speech during an interview to ask if the applicant has a GED, an IQ near room temperature, a criminal conviction, a preference for little boys, a desire to join ISIS, etc.? Who can hope to predict to what insanities Progs may sink next?

In Canada, it is considered discriminatory to say that marriage is between a man and a woman or that every child should know and be raised by his or her biological married parents. It is not just politically incorrect in Canada to say so; you can be saddled with tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees, fined, and forced to take sensitivity training.
Anyone who is offended by something you have said or written can make a complaint to the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals. In Canada, these organizations police speech, penalizing citizens for any expression deemed in opposition to particular sexual behaviors or protected groups identified under “sexual orientation.” It takes only one complaint against a person to be brought before the tribunal, costing the defendant tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. The commissions have the power to enter private residences and remove all items pertinent to their investigations, checking for hate speech.
The plaintiff making the complaint has his legal fees completely paid for by the government. Not so the defendant. Even if the defendant is found innocent, he cannot recover his legal costs. If he is found guilty, he must pay fines to the person(s) who brought forth the complaint.
If your beliefs, values, and political opinions are different from the state’s, you risk losing your professional license, job, or business, and even your children. Look no further than the Lev Tahor Sect, an Orthodox Jewish sect. Many members, who had been involved in a bitter custody battle with child protection services, began leaving Chatham, Ontario, for Guatemala in March 2014, to escape prosecution for their religious faith, which conflicted with the Province’s guidelines for religious education. Of the two hundred sect members, only half a dozen families remain in Chatham.
Parents can expect state interference when it comes to moral values, parenting, and education—and not just in school. The state has access into your home to supervise you as the parent, to judge your suitability. And if the state doesn’t like what you are teaching your children, the state will attempt to remove them from your home.
Teachers cannot make comments in their social networks, write letters to editors, publicly debate, or vote according to their own conscience on their own time. They can be disciplined or lose any chance of tenure. They can be required at a bureaucrat’s whim to take re-education classes or sensitivity training, or be fired for thinking politically incorrect thoughts.
When same-sex marriage was created in Canada, gender-neutral language became legally mandated. Newspeak proclaims that it is discriminatory to assume a human being is male or female, or heterosexual. So, to be inclusive, special non-gender-specific language is being used in media, government, workplaces, and especially schools to avoid appearing ignorant, homophobic, or discriminatory. A special curriculum is being used in many schools to teach students how to use proper gender-neutral language. Unbeknownst to many parents, use of gender terms to describe husband and wife, father and mother, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, and “he” and “she” is being steadily eradicated in Canadian schools.
Little girls almost always want to outlaw the truth, and Progs are nothing if not little girls. Mean little girls. Our problem is not just that Progs want to call evil good. It's that Progs want to make it a crime (hate speech) to point out that they are calling evil good. Indeed, in Canada, it is becoming hate speech to assume that the person one is addressing is of any particular sex or gender. Thus, one does not use gender specific pronouns or refer to one's mother or father. One refers to one's parents or spouse. Indeed, all ideas that run counter to the Prog program are quickly branded as hate speech.
It's as if everyone wants to be a little girl, so they can agress with their feelings and make you pay (big time) if you hurt them. Because the feelings of little girls rule, fewer women want to grow up, and more men want to be changed into little girls. The alpha leader for progressive Western Civ is now the little girl. And little girls have opinions and feelings about lots of things! -- not just sex and gender.
Warning to Western Civ: Read http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2015/04/14899/
Little girls have feelings about: Being taken care of by elitists who care for collectives; comparing IQs and skills; truth unpleasantness; reality avoidance and chemical addictions; elitist rule denial; global warming denial; property title denial; entitlement to "liberate," redistribute, and share property; skin color; culture; cultural anarchism; cultural nihilism; inferiority of culture of American males; orientation; age of consent; child sex initiation; group sex obsession; animal sex obsession; god perversion obsession; gov as god perversion; gaia as god perversion; subjugation of men, gaia, god and gov to fascist, elitist sadomasochism.
There are lots of topics about which little girls want to restrict conversation, factual communication, and factual investigation. Really, Progs are little girls with agressive feelings of entitlement. If their entitlement-mindedness is not bowed to, they feel their dignity has been sullied. But what is the "dignity" (?!) in destroying adults' freedoms of association, expression, and enterprise -- merely to cater to the feelings of little girls so that they are never inconvenienced to have to grow up and confront truths about the world?
Canada is now a nation of little girls. And they want America to become one, too. With Maher, Stewart, Maddow, Matthews, and Colbert, we are well on our way. A nation of little girls, that finds truth too unpleasant to think about, will not be able to defend itself against the evil that is rampant in the world. I love little girls. I raised two. But I raised them so they grew up to become responsible women -- not to stagnate as mean little girls. Obama, Hillary, and most political candidates for the establishment are incompetent little girls who are ruled by their feelings, not by truths.
First, the little Prog girls swarmed Cruz and Trump. Soon, they mean to swarm and sink America and Truth. Caitlyn for the Sawbuck.
A woman who marries into a harem for a guy who makes much of his money, often in the millions, out of crony corporatism with the gov is marrying a guy who is as married to the gov as any welfare mom. A woman who marries into a harem to gain citizenship is marrying for gov purposes. A woman who marries, singly or polygamously, in hopes of obtaining an increase in security and social security benefits upon her husband's death would be marrying for gov benefits. A woman who married to gain access to the country, who thereafter had a child by an abandoning bigamist, would seek gov benefits.
In an ideal case, a woman who married into a harem whose husband was a wealthy producer who was not a crony corporatist would not be marrying the gov. I suppose there may be some such women. IAE, once polygamy becomes commonplace, republics seem to fail and get replaced by despotisms.
Utah might be an interesting case study. Perhaps it was more democratically successful before it abandoned polygamy? I am not sure, so I will see what I can learn. I will try to ascertain: What were the political motivations of the early Mormon Church? Did it want to establish a patriarchial theocracy? What would be its stance on one world gov? Would women be subordinate? What is the role of deception?
Samples: http://www.albertmohler.com/2006/06/02/can-democracy-survive-polygamy/.
See http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/012/266jhfgd.asp: Chief Justice Morrison Waite, writing for a unanimous Court in Reynolds, quotes Francis Lieber, the most respected American legal authority of the day: "Professor Lieber says, polygamy leads to the patriarchal principle, . . . which, when applied to large communities, fetters the people in stationary despotism, while that principle cannot long exist in connection with monogamy."
See http://object.cato.org/sites/cato.org/files/serials/files/regulation/2008/6/v31n2-noted.pdf#page=1: There are two reasons why it is difficult and may be impossible for polygamous societies to become open and democratic. First, the opportunity to acquire many wives creates a powerful incentive for seeking power. Second and more importantly, polygamous societies create tremendous internal tensions. In particular, in societies where some males have more than one wife, other males have none and may not have prospects of marrying. Those males — typically young — are a destabilizing force in society, and it may be necessary for society to be repressive in order to control them.
See http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-debate/editorials/polygamy-is-incompatible-with-canadas-democracy/article4264300/:
The defenders of polygamy at the B.C. Supreme Court skillfully argued that comparisons with polygynous societies are irrelevant to the modern West, in which monogamy (whether permanent or serial) is widespread. But that is circular reasoning. In the longer term, legalized polygamy could well start to eat away at, and reverse, the progress of history.
A complication arises when the Fed Gov attempts to incentivize what it takes to be a traditional marriage. To do so, it will either undertake for itself to define traditional marriage, or it will try to assauge the definition used by each state within its territory. This gets complicated as employees move across state lines and seek full faith and credit from other states for their established properties, relations, and family status. This begs a concern: Regardless of whatever may be considered to be the advantages of preserving traditional families, should that not be a function reserved to the states and for which the Fed gov has no competence, either practically or constitutionally?
This gets messy. The military finds it practical to meet recruitment goals in an efficient and economical way to provide health care, retirement, and pay incentives for families. It's one thing to say the Feds should just get out of the marriage business altogether, and simply decline to award or recognize any financial inducements for spouses and families. It is another thing to do that and still meet retention goals in an efficient and economical manner. I don't have a simple solution to the problem of fed recognition or enforcement of same sex marriage or polygamy. I don't see clear constitutional authority in the Feds. Yet, there seem to be considerable practical problems in leaving such issues entirely up to the states.
I incline to believe: SSM and polygamy should be left up to the states; and the feds and fed employers should not incent such practices.
The temptation is to allow Feds (especially for military families) to incent traditional marriages that are contracted or consummated in the states. However, this temptation gets sticky fast. How can a fed authority look to state law for defining traditional marriage while declining to look to state law if it recognizes SSM or polygamy? As a practical matter, it may not be feasible for the Feds to make themselves entirely blind to marital and familial status. Yet, anything less seems quickly to devolve into sticky involvement by the Feds into state matters.
Maybe most issues of family law that present conflicts among jurisdictions can be reconciled among the states under established common law precedents for reconciling conflicts of law. (This may get really weird and complex when we have AI gigolo robots. Can Data get married?)
In the final analysis, once our republic becomes too divided on such fundamental concerns, it may be that we will simply have become no longer sustainable as a united republic. This division may not be bridgeable.
Third world women will find ways to marry the gov. If the gov rewards them for becoming polygamists, that's what more of them will become. Especially so as we change to a two class society. Polygamy, whether legalized or not, corrupts a republic the more prevalent it becomes. We should not incent it. Both for religious reasons and for practical reasons. That is, if we want to sustain a representative republic where women are not incented to marry the gov.
There are many kinds of gov doles. Many conflict and make little sense, outside of Agenda 21 or Cloward Piven. A gov that wanted to sustain a republic rather than destroy it could rationally decline to award incentives to polygamous relationships. What we reward, we get more of. So long as polygamy is rare, it is not a problem. Once it begins to become a lot more common, I think it leads to non-republican, fascist kinds of govs. If that is true, it does harm a republic to incent it.
I care not at all what they do. I do care when they seek by what they do to acquire a status that makes a claim against the treasury that I help fund. Especially when the accumulated drain from such claims endangers the republic. When they seek to leverage a status for levearging power to parasitize, that's when I care. He who seeks to destroy my republic does seek to pick my pocket. I prefer that favored tax status (social security and military alotments) go to responsible families that tend more to produce responsible citizens and troops who will defend the republic. As opposed to whiners who want to adopt, groom, and pervert children.
The fact is, not so many years ago, few people were pushing for gov recognized gay marriage. I think it's quite short sighted to expect that Progs will somehow find a place at which to draw a line.
Your gay neighbors were already free to call themselves married (or whatever else they wished to call themselves). It's all about the taxes, money, and trying to shove the abnormal down our throats and force us to call it normal. That seems pretty obvious. And it does rob your pocket, pervert your progeny, and break your republic.
Has there ever been a successful representative republic that encouraged or allowed polygamy as a matter of policy? Of nearly 50 countries that permit polygamous marriages, they are either predominantly Muslim nations or in Africa.
Per Wikipedia: As a term, polygamy derives from the Greeks. The Spartans considered childbearing the main object of marriage. When a woman had no children by her own husband, it was sometimes encouraged that she ought to be allowed to cohabit with another man. To help ensure his lineage, the Spartan King Anaxandridas II cohabited with two wives. According to Herodotus, this was not consistent with Spartan or Hellenic custom. Concubinage, however, was frequently represented, as in Homer. The Romans did not accept polygamy.
Per Wikipedia: The Canadian province of Saskatchewan allows simultaneous, additional marital rights and obligations in some cases for already married persons. No one in Canada has been convicted of polygamy for over sixty years. In Australia and New Zealand, polygamous marriages cannot be performed, but polygamous relationships are common within indigenous Australian communities. Polygamous marriages entered into abroad may be recognized for limited purposes. In Brazil, only one incident of long-term cohabitation between a man and two women has so far been recognized as a family entity. It was granted 112 rights of married couples. In Russia, polygamous civil marriage has been proposed. In the U.S., some splinter groups from the LDS Church practice polygamy. See also the television dramas, Big Love and Sister Wives.
Oscar Wlde said, " "Bigamy is having one spouse too many. Marriage is the same."
As near as I can tell, polygamy appears to be a major gateway for despotic regimes. A slippery slope to a lowest-common-denominator, two-class world. At the bottom lies quicksand for the knowitall kiddies who hate to hear that and think they know better.
Many modern churches radiate liberal politics because they now pander, like "liberal" pols, to the lowest common denominator. They pander; they do not inspire. For a people that seek political and moral meaningfulness, many churches have made themselves irrelevant -- except to cheer for unearned self esteem as a replacement for every sinner's remorse. They sold out moral rectitude in trade for tax exemptions and barking for the devil.
Edit: Not enough churches are showing penitents a better way, while too many are nurturing perversion of fundaments of faith.
Our Founders drew their inspiration for the Declaration and the Constitution from ideas they had assimilated concerning the moral worth of human freedom and dignity and the practical devices by which it may be preserved. Ultimately, that assimilation depends on faith in a higher Source of principled values. Without such faith, our Constitution will be reduced to a rag to be torn and ripped between contending and unprincipled animals.
The more the Source of faith is banned from our social and political consideration, the more the advantages that will be surrendered to unprincipled and narcissistic sociopaths. Further, the more "walled off" and irrelevant we make our spiritual forums to our society, the more they will become mere panderers and handmaidens to evil.
And so it has come to pass that our Great "Christian" Prezy teaches us that it's time to ditch our defining faiths and families. Barry is New-Faux-Jesus (Noofoojesus), personified in Black Liberation Theology (communist collectivism with a sharp Islamic flavor). The advent of the replacement of human liberty with liberal totalitarianism. How secure we are now!
If faithless, self-worshipping, pleasure-addled oligarchs can manufacture a dumb enough electorate, they can elect a completely corrupt Clintoon. Just like they did with Obama. And now they are making their game fool proof by importing and vectoring enough fools to smother their opposition. As someone said, we are in that awkward phase when it may well be too late to fix the system from within, but too soon to start shooting the m o f o bas t ards.
Only Republicans could do away with public employee unions, and that cannot happen so long as there are enough public employees to keep the Republican Party in minority status. Moreover, the Republican Party would rather not face the problem directly because it does not trust the common sense or decency of the common man. So it tries to handle the problem with economic and fiat contrivances: Cycle in more cheap and easily bribed labor, siphon out the fiat money, and let the burden deplete the middle class. During this doctored cannibalization of America, a cover is kept over the operation. Soon, the patient will be much like every other banana republic. Is that "fair," or what?
The American Ideal is the only thing that can save the covetous class. However, the covertous class is kept distracted and stirred up with hatred against "privileged whitey," and it seems to be too dumb or too corrupt to notice the true oligarchic source of the evil. Perhaps, however, the covetous and ghetto class would be less dumb and corrupt if responsible Americans began undertaking to stand up, respectfully, for what is right. The oligarchs who know the evil they are doing are the ones more to be condemned. The covetous class needs to be educated -- not by oligarchs and their demented shills (maleducated gruberers), but by responsible Americans.
Progs would be faithless if they did not worship their own insular pleasuring. Obsessive fixation on sex, drugs, and fiat money make for a Not So Brave New America.
Gov supervisors are rated on empire building, not on efficiency. It is a truism that taking money from incenting production to shove it down a rathole is zero sum. Yet, Dems seek to improve the economy by creating more gov employment. This is like fighting fires by pouring the water down holes. Only a Prog raised Dem Brainiac could imagine this to be effective. You have to be a real momma's boy or femidad's girl to be "smart enough" to see the sense in Dem programs. Harvard can help with that.
Obama is intent on Cities reporting why they have not affirmatively sought out more minority residents -- whether they be legal or illegal. Obama has made America a sanctuary nation, which, without effective immigration control, is not a nation at all. How many times must a wolf be entertained to gnaw on a person's arm for the person to figure out that, yes, the wolf really means to devour him? Meanwhile, impeachment remains off the table. Gag! If a strangely oriented wolf could smirk, he/she/it would look like Obama.
There's no stupid like elite Prog stupid. Nothing short of worldwide meltdown can stop it. It just keeps going and going and going. Iranian nuke, economic meltdown, ebola pandemic, Delta Smelt, language de-rectification -- maybe, working together, they can stop Prog stupid by returning us to a New Prog Stone Age. Critical Prog Studies -- what a gas!
Metro-Americans are too late weaned from dependence on an unreliable and unprincipled collective. The consequence: An infantilized nation that cannot much longer perpetuate itself. A nation in which too many people are attracted to wannabe whiney rappers, exhibitionistic bu tt crackers, militant gay paraders, and flat out commies who call themselves progressives. By no stretch would our Founders have considered these people to be Americans. Every metro-dependent wants to come to America for the free stuff, but no one wants to be an American.
People who lack talent will often compensate by deploying an equal lack of scruples. Being unable to advance themselves privately, they will try to harness the security and force of the collective gov. Our gov thus becomes an insider game for people udderly (pun intended) without scruples. These metro-people become role models for all the invading illegals. These people have also so contorted our Constitution that it is now interpreted mainly as rules for a radical game of robbery by asserting discriminatory victimhood.
Now, the collective is regularly hijacked to force reparations for all manner of alleged discrimination. So, we get legalized reparations forced from employers, and we get tax-funded reparations forced from the treasury. This game of reparations has become ponzi-intensive, and its players, like a Liberty Terminator, are relentless. These guys will never, ever stop. People who nurse their hurt feelings and make diaries about their loss of sleep and appetite will seek reparations, endlessly.
These people will rub raw their anguish, and our gov will cut them checks. Reparations will be sought by blacks who were never slaves, homosexuals who never desired a long term family relationship, criminals who claim to have become disadvantaged in their communities because of the loss of local businesses that they looted and burned, and women and femimen who want equal pay regardless of what they call male monopolizaton for defining merit.
Risk free plundering from the collective: It's your new Constitutional right -- unless you happen to be a white male with a productive job. The New, Improved Great Society. What could go wrong?
Progs want to end hate by taking every opportunity to excite divisiveness. That cannot work.
Progs want to build an economy by suckling on welfare that is paid by fiat money. That cannot work. Progs want to neuter and silence everyone who tries to tell them their business plan is fundamentally flawed.
Progs are setting themselves up for what will likely be a brutal correction. The later the correction, the more likely its brutality. If Progs succeed in disarming the people, the correction will become a gov-sponsored massacre and/or a consignment to gulag. Elites who stir up our Progs are so very smart in epitomizing childish stupidity! Sometimes, children need to be told when they are being stupid and allowing themselves to be misled by cluelessly disconnected and radical "elites." I hope that is what Trump is for.
The great trend of our time is not about white supremacism. It's about the efforts of Defiant Progs and their Trolls to replace American Exceptionalism with Thug Collectivism. It's about rampant Thug Supremacism.
The kind of people who can find it uplifting to take from producing taxpayers in order to redistribute equal shares to able bodied people who refuse to work or to invest their talents, to take away the risk of going into business, are the kind of people who are not literate enough in liberty to sustain a decent republic. To Americans, this flip in the demographic is disheartening, not uplifting. Sanders is symptomatic of banana rot.
People are people. Most are blessed with an innate sense of dignity. To illustrate, take an elderly and infirm person shopping. Or take her to a restaurant, like my 87 year old, white haired, Irish mother. Then watch how often people of ALL ages and colors jump to hold a door for her. Or, in an hour long check out line, have 7 or 8 Mexican families smile and invite, "You go first, Doña." An essence of humanity is in all our hearts, often needing only the right stimulus to be coaxed out.
It's the mixing of cultures that we need to work on. Since Americans built the country, it's the new cultures that need to work more on assimilating. We should counsel for that by whatever means may be appropriate to each occasion. Sometimes, the counseling can be friendly. Sometimes it needs to be pointed. Still, there are red lines, and they need to be identified as such. That is, if we want independent, liberty-literate Americans and do not want to make things too comfortable for people to sink to becoming permanent welfare leeches. This is not exercising white privilege. It's being an American -- of which we should be proud. Problem is, the biggest impediments to common sense seem to be among our so called leaders.
Those among homosexuals, blacks, hispanics, and other hustlers and gang bangers who are against what they call "White Privilege" (ordinary Americans of all colors and orientations) are destroying our freedom of association, as well as our freedom of expression and enterprise. If Americans do not conform to the homosexual agenda, these fascist gangsters will enlist gov by every foul means to punish, suspend, and fine you, and take away your business.
Using force of gov to destroy freedom of association is nothing if it is not fascism. The goose steppers who are uniting against the ordinary Americans who prefer individual rights over collective force are the vanguard for the fascist blitz. De-defining families and re-educating your kids are key to expediting the gay fascist agenda.
These people are very unhappy. They will not be content until they destroy every pillar of free society. While they cry about being mistreated, they are cheering for the re-indoctrination of every liberty illiterate kid and naif. The wolves who plot to destroy our kids first send their cubs to cry at us. They have no clue what is needed to sustain a representative republic. Their every instinct has been bent to replace the republic with a fascist state, to be ruled by elitist fellow travelers.
I wonder how much of Fascist Gaydom is tied to a projective need for father approval and sadomasochism? It's as if sadomasochistic misery loves goosestepping company to such extent as to border on necrophiliac fantasy and forced sacrifice of human dignity.
Aside from the horrors of modern collectivism and fascism, human degradation (and perhaps narcissistic or homoerotic ritual ceremony and sacrifice?) has been around from the beginning. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., regarding:
Retainer sacrifices among Mongolians, Scythians and Egyptians; Carthaginian sacrifices of infants to Moloch; Jepthah's sacrifice of daughter; Celtic Wicker Man sacrifices; China terra cotta; Greek sacrifice for Trojan War; Vedic Purushamedha; Indian Kali sacrifices; Duke Wu burials; Viking ship funeral with sacrifices of slaves; Aztec pyramid consecration and sacrifices to Sun god; Mississippian Birdman retainer sacrifices; Mesoamerican ballgame sacrifices; Peruvian mass teenager sacrifices; West African ritual canniablism; Japanese Hitobashira; Fiji widow strangling; Turkish human sacrifices over graves of slain comrades; Sati widow burning from India and China; French Reign of Terror Moral Panic; West African money rituals; Chilean earthquake and tsunami sacrifice.
The atrocities of Vlad the Impaler may not have been for sacrificial purposes, but their frequency rose to the level of gruesome and unnatural fetishism. While Islam proscribes human sacrifice, its promotion of jihad and its expected virginal rewards produces frequent, grisly, grotesque executions. Not to mention unnatural goat love, boy "mentoring," female mutilation, and cousin marriage.
Most human sacrifices at the level of fetishism seem to have come from the overactive imaginations and indulgences of demented and excited males. Such feats of strength and airing of grievances may be common throughout history, but I would not accord them formal, social approval or a psychological label of "normal."
Nowadays, instead of sacrificing infants, homoeroticism seems to have "progressed" to the level of gov-forced mentoring and grooming of school children. When you look at Obama, do you see an "evolved homoerotic"?
I believe in a Reconciler. I purport little to no understanding of any literalistic specification for the hereafter. I value the message of the Reconciler with regard to the Great Commandment, the Golden Rule, and an exemplary life. Being "washed clean in His blood" makes no special sense to me. However, given the overactive imaginations of many males, I can see how that idea may be attractive to many. IAE, you are confused if you think it was Christians who wanted to sacrifice Jesus.
While we're assuming: I assume you like the idea of gov tax revenues being applied to require grooming school children to the gay lifestyle? I assume you celebrate the undermining of freedom of association by punishing speech and enterprise that you find not to your liking? I assume you would like to live under the diktat of goose stepping fascists wearing gay black leather? I assume you crave irritating people until they say "uncle" and confess you are just as responsible a citizen as anyone else? I assume you have a foot fetish because the neurons for tickling your little toe are too close to the neurons for tickling your nads? I assume you would think it peachy if you could groom a wavering kid to go to the gay side?
Another factor is that they have little respect for rules, concerns, or rights of others unless they further gay fascism. It's easier to form gay gangs against ordinary society. Try making it in Hollywood or academia without being sympathetic to the gay mafia. Ask Mel Gibson.
Barry would order them not to. Congress would lose face. If the Sergeant at Arms made such an attempt against persons under protection of Barry, the perverted and communistic media would raise a firestorm against Congress. The only reason Nixon had to turn over the tapes was because he was an anti-communist.
We have not lived umder a nation of laws for a long time. We have lived under laws as interpreted and dictated by the establishment. Unless you're a Republican, Conservative, police officer, or Dem who hasn't paid enough protection money, you have to be caught in the smoking gun equivalent of being in bed with a pre-teen boy to merit prosecution. Our republic was undermined long ago by a demented international oligarchy of corporatists. We never figured out how to check and balance against demented crony corporatism. And now it has fundamentally transformed us from a representative republic into a gay banana republic. Metros swoon. Give them their gay bananas and that's all they care about.
It's just theater. Congress is a shill for the establishment, which runs roughshod over the American people. Congress obeys and fears the establishment. Congress will only jail those who are out of favor with the establishment. The rule of law is a farce.
Congress gives only lip service to the people. Scotus gives only lip service to the Constitution. And Bathhouse Barry only reads what Totus tells him. The republic is a charade that gives good laughs to the establishment. Your participatory freedom is confined to your home. Soon, it will be confined even further. Thanks be to the Aclu (which absolutely destroyed freedom of association), Gay Mafia (which has paved the way for the wholesale corruption of youth), academia (which indoctrinates generations of metrosexuals and wormy boys), clergy (which sold out its social responsibility in exchange for tax exemption status), journalist watchdogs (blowyou metros), invading serfs (liberty illiterates), and sleeping Americans. The godless and demented oligarchs won. Until Americans waken in righteous anger.
I think a republic needs jealous guards against corruption.
I like private, free enterprise. But it depends on arms length competition within a fair marketplace. A fair marketplace does not occur by wishing it so. Unless a foreign combination is blocked from preying on a nation, it will prey. Indeed, war is a kind of competitive enterprise to achieve superior resources and arms within a marketplace of corruption and violence. In the absence of social capital and a conducive people, there is nothing magical about a marketplace. Many nations have had marketplaces without being able to flourish.
The complex problem is how to arm the republic against being undermined by international crony corporatists and oligarchs. That problem needs to be identified! It cannot be magically wished away. Strategy is needed. A strategy would entail various tactics, including: Limit central powers more clearly. Take away central power, and the attraction for predators will be reduced. Pass the Liberty Amendments. Rescind the 17th Amendment. Revive freedom of association!!! Impose term limits for every elected and appointed fed office.
But more is needed in order to inoculate America against the ebola-like contagion of demented international oligarchism that is killing republics by corrupting, buying, and threatening their politicians.
We should not be taxing domestic corporations and businesses on legitimate income, sales, or consumption, at all! We should not have an income tax at all! We should substitute a consumption tax that would fall, except in limited situations, only on retail consumers -- not businesses. Most revenues from retail taxes should go to States and Cities.
Above that, effective checks are needed against the crony political abuses of oligarchs. Such abuses can be regulated as crimes, fineable offenses, forfeiture offenses, and/or they can be taxed.
Contributions to charities, foundations, and campaigns should be taxed to the givers, as if such contributions were consumptive purchases. (Nothing good has come of enticing churches to foreswear involvement in the public square to protect their tax exemptions. On balance, tax free foundations have become purveying agents of collectivism under fascist tule. Dis-exempt them!)
Disallow political contributions by Unions, Foundations, Corporations, and foreign persons and agents. Reduce the junket allowances of representatives and presidential entourages. If they make contributions anyway, impose severe penalties or progressive taxes in respect of the amounts involved. All political contributions should be taxed to the donors or authorizing persons or committees as if they were purchases of goods and services. When an oligarch persists in attempting to exact illegal crony influence, make him pay -- Big Time! Let others learn that the stove is hot.
Businesses would still be able to consult with representatives, but they would not be able to pick up tabs or make contributions. Nor would they need deductions for their travel and related costs, since they would not be taxed on income anyway! IOW, lobbying sans contributions would just be part of the cost of doing business.
Because of term limits, no Fed official should receive any pension.
The Executive's treaty powers should be probationary, pending approval by Congress. Congress should be entitled to appoint an auditor to monitor, attend, and subpoena pertinent docs respecting all foreign and trade negotiations.
Every new Departmental regulation and Executive order should be void unless and until approved by Congress.
None of this can happen, however, without restoration of faith, family and fidelity. A nation that has become so balkanized and unassimilated as to be without guidance or recourse to any higher Principler cannot prosper. Invariably, it must fall to become a serfdom ruled by a demented cronydom.
Well, the Corps choose who to fund. Without campaign funding, the Pols cannot run. Moreover, without term limits, the Pols would need to be saints to resist the numerous and generous temptations that are tossed about by lobbyists.
Effective manure requires nitrogen (corporatists), phosphorus (politicians) and potassium (lobbyists). DC is nothing if not a steaming pile of manure. Problem is, it is manure that is specially manufactured to grow a two class serfdom. It crowds out a free, thinking, and independent middle class. DC has become the nemesis of America as a federal republic of limited and enumerated central powers. America will need a radical mastectomy to treat the DC cancer.
The people who write about vampires, werewolves, zombies, and militant gays have alternative ideas about propagation: Propagation by biting. By biting youth. By "mentoring" and "educating" youth. Forcibly. As p.c. requirements. Forcibly funded with taxes.
And forcibly promulgated with hate speech codes, for suspending people who do not go along. Eventually, for removing children from parents who resist. The demented oligarchy has its neo-dystopian plans, and it will not willingly allow time to be on the side of ordinary, decent Americans.
Re: forced to wholeheartedly accept the party line or be financially destroyed and publically humiliated
Add: And submit to having their wallets raided to fund the grooming and wormy perversion ("education") of their children.
Why is the republic dying? We know Big Gov cannot work, because it has no effective pricing mechanism for prioritizing the distribution of desired goods and services. So why do some people believe that Big Crony Corp that buys pols to preclude competition by enacting impossible regulatory obstacles can work?
Why do people believe a republic can survive while leaving itself open to being devoured from within by wormy international corps that buy our pols to get them to sell out our republic? Has "free trade" come to mean the free buyng and selling of republics and the farming and enserfment of their peoples by an international and demented oligarchy?
The oligarchy WANTS to turn your children into demented addicts who can be controlled by cheap slogans and sex and drug favors. How long before gov-backed pervs who claim to be well "educated" in critical social "science" come and demand that your kids board their buses? Or attend summer camps to learn to hate "white privilege"? How long before wormy elitists make all institutions so rotted that reeducation camps will not even be needed?
DC (Congress) has shown itself impotent to enforce its subpoenas and contempt power against Holder, Lerner, and Hillary. Why should anyone believe DC will be potent to snap back punishment on account of any treaty violation by Iran? DC has proven time and again that fundamental principles and law do not matter. Iran will do what billionaires decide it can get away with doing. No respectors of law are praising Obama. Only moral morons, con artists, and international opportunists praise him.
The more JEB opens his mouth, the more he proves that there can be no point in voting for him. We are a prison nation if the best choice we can manage is between a demented commie shrew and a water boy for Agenda 21.
When an elitist tyranny imposes rule in arbitrary disregard for the representatives of a people, its rule is lawless and does not deserve respect. You are the one seeking to impose elitist rule while calling it "law".
My point remains that your project is inconsistent with the rebel flag, under which real Rebs despised the disrespect of the North for their retained right to secede from tyranny.
Yes, when a gay mafia cherry picks means by which to undermine the will of the people at large with the aid of outlaw judges, that is gangster tyranny. Nothing in Scotus' decision is respectful in any way of judicial reasoning. It is pure fabrication on behalf of elitists who are bent on destroying the representative nature of the republic by replacing it with elitist whim. As such, under any intelligent definition, it is treason and tyranny. But for the gays and gay fellow travelers on Scotus, no self respecting jurist would ever have tortured the law as they have done.
The rebels fought against this kind of crap. Your avatar (a rebel flag on a gay mafia background), in pretending to sympathize with people who were against outlaw tyranny, is the kind of lie only a fascist would love.
You wanna make "love" with men? No one cares! No one is stopping you! Have you not yet figured that out? It is when you rely on outlaw judges to destroy the freedom of association of other citizens and to require public authorities to groom innocent children for you that you become despicable.
Do you have any responsible interests, or is this fixation your sole contribution to society?
Trump's message needs to be one of restoring freedom and dignity in America. If we can't restore freedom and dignity here, we can't gift them to the world. If we can't demonstrate that freedom and dignity can work in America, then we cannot offer hope for them to work anywhere.
And that is precisely what the subhuman establishment wants. The Aino establishmentarians want to pick the pockets of Americans. And their Dino camp followers want to pick through the droppings. That way, the Rino establishment need not fear its displacement, and the Dino camp beggars, high-pinky-men, and pants-at-ankles-boys need not suffer the humiliation of being compared to Americans who can do without begging. A sleeping giant needs to wake the hell up.
First, only the Blacks wanted to be snowflakes with special privileges, to whom our freedom of association must be surrendered in order to make reparations on account of past treatment. Then, on account of "White Privilege," the reparations became permanent, to be forever administered by elites in the name of fairness (as determined by elite critical theorists in social science). Then, Hispanics and Women wanted to be snowflakes. Then news anchors and late night comedians. Then Homosexuals. Bisexuals. Omnisexuals. Transvestites. Transexuals. Now, Metrosexuals. And everyone whose feelings are easily hurt. Especially Muslims. And Aborigines. And all Third Worlders. And people who are able bodied but perhaps a standard deviation below average IQ. Soon, the non-pretty (ugly).
Given the NWO's attempt to pull up the ladders and flip the demographic by inviting, importing, supporting, and giving welfare to all these varieties of snowflakes, America will soon be 98% snowflakes. The central apparatus, to ensure no feelings are unfairly hurt and everyone receives equal distribution, will not need to declare America dead or the Constitution a dead letter. That will be a fait accompli.
It begins with prohibiting the hurting of subjective feelings by prescribing speech codes, sanctionable hate speech, favored groups, and affirmative action. It moves on to the awarding of damages for subjective feelings of oppression and mental anguish. It graduates to suspending students, confiscating bank accounts and property, destroying livelihoods, confiscating guns, taking away children, ordering reeducation, special counseling, chemical and mental washing, and eventually firing squads.
Soon, if Americans don't polish some lamposts with rope burns from hanging elites, every expressly independent thinker and American will be lined up against a wall. Then, in appearance, we will be 100% snowflakes and there will be pieces.
If we continue on our present course, we will go from kid gloves for 2% snowflakes to a tyrannical despotism under a 98% that consists of godforsaken, goose stepping, dung of dung. It's past time to quit apologizing to snowflakes like McCain and tell them in clear terms to Grow The Hell Up! Giving charity to the wounded, elderly, and handicapped is one thing. Perpetual kid gloves to people who just choose not to leave the nest is another. If your aspiration is to be a permanent snowflake, go to Norway.
