Politics Gone Wrong. . . .

[babe]

So here's a scenario.

You've got an irresponsible bum as the head of the tribe. He collects all the taxes he can from everyone, and goes out on raids to get stuff from all the neighboring villages, strutting his stuff as the biggest tough in the territory. But he comes home and divides the spoils with a few honchos, and pays huge tributes to the human-sacrificing priests who do nothing but eat off the fat of the land, sitting in their big pyramids/temples of doom. If you don't help with the war party you're called stupid names and harassed in your own wigwam, and everything you have is just ripped off with impunity. You have to be out there hooting and hollering to whip up the war party craze to fit in. If you try to say anything, you'll be suspected of disloyalty or worse. . . .

So today we have a war party in the military industries, and some equally self-serving witch doctors who won't tolerate anyone taking care of their own aches and pains, and the high priest financial banker elites/corporatists who give the bum their blessings.

How would a realistic and sensible person go about changing life for the better?

The war party hooters are going to take your tomahawk/stones, bows and arrows unless you submit to their way and become a warrior with them, and you can't just leave and go four or five weeks off into some vast wilderness and live your own way. The war party claims all the land, and will hunt you down if you leave.

If you try talk, even friendly and respectfully, there's a chance you're going to be the next offering to the war gods. . . .

 

[Gameface]

Hunker down and play along where you have to. No benefit in sticking your neck out. Let the head honcho run his course and be there to help pick up the pieces. If one of his buddies takes over from where he leaves off rinse and repeat.

As much as it goes against your grain, vote populist.

 

[babe]

As much as it goes against your grain, vote populist.

nah. . . .

I spent all day Saturday with my wife at the Eagle Forum annual meeting listening to about twelve speakers, starting with Senator Mike Lee and thren Representative Chaffetz, and afterwards we took our kids to see "Here Comes The Boom", after which I came home and got into my email and read some stuff from the LaRouche PAC, a socialist/big gov FDR democrat outoftheloop political action group. . . . calling for Obama's impeachment for giving the keys to the national treasury to the Brit Bankers and various interest groups who are like squirrels stashing all their ill-gotten gains and building bunkers for the coming coming nuclear holocaust that will save the environment by eliminating 95% of the human race. . .. the trailer trash of the world so to speak. . . .

And that's what did it. That's when I started this thread. . . .

And while your suggestion "vote populist" was warmly received, there is no populist I can vote for. Lyndon LaRouche and Phyllis Schaffly are top-down managers of their political movements, and presumably would be directing the government if their supporters ever gained power on the presumption that "Jesus Would Do This".

So, here, Franklin, is a lead just for you: Today Harley Schlanger, one of LaRouche's top guns is going to be in town, and local talk radio guru Jack Stockwell is also scheduled to speak. I'll be there. Here's where and when:

Call for Emergency Assembly to Save the Nation

PASS THE LAROUCHE 3-POINT PROGRAM NOW!

We have reached a moment when the concerted actions of a relative handful of our citizens can have the impact of changing the trajectory of our nation, which without such intervention, leads to certain doom. You are receiving this notice because we believe you to be one of those people who are tired of seeing this great country slide towards its destruction and are equally tied of hearing people complain about the lack of leadership and mis-leadership in Washington but who propose no workable solution to fix the crisis.

The Utah LaRouche movement and radio talk show host Jack Stockwell have called a citizen’s assembly for activists and those wishing to discuss and act on the only program that will solve this crisis: the 3-point proposal of the world's leading economist and proponent of the American System of physical economy, Lyndon LaRouche.

Salt Lake City Meeting

Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2013
Main Library – 4th Floor Meeting Room
210 E 400 S
Salt Lake City, UT 84111
6:30 pm – Doors Open
7:00 – 9:00 pm – Meeting

Scheduled Speakers (in person):
Harley Schlanger, Western States Coordinator for Lyndon LaRouche
Dr. Jack Stockwell, K-Talk Radio Talk Show Host

The LaRouche Program:

1. The immediate restoration the Glass-Steagall legislation, exactly it was put in place originally by Franklin Roosevelt and Congress in 1933, through the passage of H.R. 129 in the U.S. House of Representatives, and a companion bill in the Senate. Doing so will once again separate the useful functions of banking from the speculative activities of Wall Street. We will use the principle re-established by this new Glass-Steagall legislation to wipe out literally trillions of dollars in financial paper and debts, including those debts incurred as a result of the hyperinflationary bailout policies of the Bush and Obama Administrations. We will wipe out the Wall Street speculators, bankrupting them, while saving the functions of banking that are useful for productive economic activity.

2. The creation of a national banking system to distribute massive amounts of Federally issued credit for directed, productive purposes. This credit is not inflationary, because by causing improved future economic conditions, it creates the means for its own repayment. Money is merely a means to facilitate the means of exchange of labor and materials, but has no intrinsic value, whether it be paper or backed by gold or other precious metals. The fuel for economic growth is credit, directed for specific purposes to increase the potential productivity of labor in physical production and to expand human creative potential, including and especially through the increase in population.

3. The direction of this create towards large scale projects of public improvement which can immediately create millions of productive jobs and lay the foundation for increased population, including in the western states. The most notable such project is NAWAPA, the North American Water and Power Alliance of the Kennedy-era, updated for the 21st century, as NAWAPA XXI. Other projects must include water management programs to protect against flooding and unnecessary devastation such as that of Super Storm Sandy. Credit will also be made available to revive our space program to offer us a near-term future means of defending Earth from extra-terrestrial threats such as asteroids and comets.

The program is based the sound principles of economics and internal improvements laid out by our first Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton. Under the leadership of George Washington and later John Quincy Adams, Hamilton 's American System policy freed us economically from the evil power of the British Empire and its traitorous allies on Wall Street. The British puppet, Andrew Jackson ripped up this system of credit and handed control back to the British and their agents. Abraham Lincoln revived this system to save the nation from destruction by the British-controlled Confederacy. Franklin Roosevelt revived these principles to pull the economy out of the Great Depression and to build the great economic machine that won World War II. When John Kennedy attempted to go in the same direction, with his Apollo manned space program and other policies, the British orchestrated his assassination.

Please notice the economic theory which this group advocates. . . . . dumping the British . . . . . including the Fed. . . . and going back to a national bank controlled by congress, which will instead of bailing out failed corporatists, will simply jump start the economy with credit, issued to build huge infrastructure projects which will give national production cheap water, power, maglev trains for moving freight, and a huge canal system across the Rockies. . . . a side benefit of bringing water down from Alaska and Canadian rivers now emptying into the Arctic Ocean to irrigate the Southwest from Texas to California, including the northern wastelands of Mexico.t
Looks to me like it makes more sense than our national media. . . . . or Obama. . . . or Ron Paul. . . . .

 

[babe]

OK, my one potentially interested customer didn't come back. . . .

Well, I went and I listened to Jack Stockwell and Harley Schlanger, and bought a pamphlet on Andrew Jackson, who is represented as being someone who took America off her destined track to glory by not believing that the Constitution was written by enlightened progressive socialists who just knew that Government is the answer to everything. . . . .

However, Obama was outed as a stuffed shirt with an empty head who is managed by Brit oligarchs designing to just destroy American ideals once and for all, and bring us back to feudal royal worship.

Jack did a great piece of demagoguery on the fake gun control issue, which was represented as being a diversion from the Bengazi murder/neglect scandal which if investigated in the right light would show Obama is now a gun runner for Al Qaida forces in Syria.

As he told the story, he stopped at a gas station and happened to be on the other side of the pumps from a rural County Sheriff deputy on K-9 assignment. So, of course, being an important big city talk radio hotshot, he just had to put the officer on notice. He said he introduced himself and asked the officer where he stood on the the Second Amendment: "If the order came down to you to go pick up the guns, would you do it?" The officer edged away and tried to be placating and said he knew that most of the Sheriff's possee would not do that in Millard County. "What about you?" Stockwell insisted. Of course I imagine that the officer wasn't about ready to accept the assertion that the interrogator was really just a talk radio nutjob, and might very well be some kind of officer on assignment to find out who would and who would not follow orders. . . . So the officer refused to say he would not follow orders himself, and only acknowledge that some of his buddies might not. . . .


Well, my wife sat patiently through all this, but gagged when the solution to the world's problems boiled down to more big government under a new kind of elite, intellectual, artsy sort of egalitarian cult. "Just like Abraham Lincoln, FDR, and John Kennedy."

The question remains for you, Franklin, if you ever notice this thread again, of how a national bank/credit dispensing arm of congress could manage our economy and keep people productively employed while building infrastructure which would generate the increased income to pay back the loans from the government bank. I'm unclear on who will own the projects when the dust settles. . . .

Reading threads like this is like watching the Lakers this season. Keep it coming.

yah. I didn't really think Jazz fanz would care. Franklin, maybe. . . .

The only thing wrong with government of the people, by the people, or for the people. . . . . ultimately. . . . is the people.

That's why a few enlightened folks with a lotta bucks, ultimately, opt to cut the people outta it.

Sir, I would suggest changing your username to something else.


Upon reading that 'babe' started a thread, I was licking my chops with delight.

Instead, I nearly had an aneurysm trying to decipher the first sentence, before giving up altogether.


Please consider changing your name to MakesYouVomit, OldGregg, KathieLeeGifford, the TummyTurner or something within the realms of accuracy.


Or you can go by your actual name. Like me.

Well, Georgy. . . .

considering that the sentence which "nearly" gave you an aneurysm was just four words, you're still good for a laugh.

but otherwise enjoy the site here. . . . it's about basketball, not just dribbling over the babes who change your bedpan. It would do you good to enlarge your interests in life, I mean not just a segment of an artery.

 

[babe]

I hope nobody else reads this thread or tries to respond to it. Obviously it's just too much to expect, and I just want my own personal thread where I can vent. OK?


So first of all in this great land and great life I've had in it, I tried going to public schools. I remember some cute girls worth kissing, but mostly they just made fun of me. I was the dunce in the class, and a loner. But instead of scheming to get my hands on some bigas guns with enough ammo to kill a herd of elephants, I studied the shadows on the mountains visible through the classroom windows. I decided there was actually stuff worth learning, but mostly not what the teachers thought. . . . like that poem about "My heart's in the highland, my heart is not here. . . . My heart's in the highlands chasing the deer."

Education rightly understood is about bringing the best out of yourself, not cramming "society" or "government management" in, or "training the dolts to serve the corps".

Religion, in my ideal of it, is about having some personal values of a postulated significance beyond my little self. . . . stuff leading to not just random acts of kindness or goodness but a systematic approach to actually doing stuff that is in the most fundamental analysis, beneficial to the world and living things in general. . . . as well as the people around. In my reduction of the absurdities of philosophy, one important fact could not be reduced to something that could be articulated by human thought. . . .the fact that human thought is still ignorant of the universe, and will continue to be for an infinite expanse of time, simply because of our location and tools of exploration in comparison to the size of things generally. Still, I chose to codify my ignorance in terms of humility and faith in "God" rather than to just hoot at faith and stride forth in pride to pronounce myself the fit proponent of some new world order.

I think about the only thing that really makes life a good thing is the natural fact of all life having not the "right" but the duty of individual perception, individual cognition, and individual action, on every question of the day.

The big lie about "progressivism" or "secular humanism" is the priestly postulate that some more enlightened or "professional" folks can or should do that for the world, for all life and all people. . . . while enriching themselves on the spoils of their "governance" on every scale.

Well, anyways, what we have going on around the world nowadays is not going to be very good for us or anyone else. And the ignoramuses who are all excited about "progress" as they imagine we are making, are little better than jackbooted fascists with homicidal fantasies on the grander scale of things. . . . saving the world from human overpopulation, and securing title to all the resources in their own names.

My doctor just checked me with his stethoscope, he said my arteries, veins and valves are all in proper order.


I truly do appreciate your motherly care for me, Mrs. Babe. It would be another plus if you were cute as well.

You had me worried that your health might be fragile somehow. . . . but no I don't want you be thinking "cute" anywhere near me, bro.

And do be careful about going out in that St. George sun, it could change your whole complexion.
