The Current Paradigm is Restrictive

     The ways of the 1% do not serve humanity. The monetary system exploits mankind and promotes every kind of evil and destructive force in order to maintain its structure. The ones that benefit the most from it seem the furthest away from the very things that have contributed to human evolution. Cooperation, empathy, and problem solving skills (based on real problems as opposed to purposely created problems). Not to mention a sense of regard for all stages of human development of all genders over the lifespan.
     You see, human beings are in an almost constant state of metamorphosis, not uncommon to many animals on this planet. Currently the systems we are all forced to endure cater mostly to males with the highest testosterone levels. Those that obtain wealth and power during this relatively short time frame of human development, can live long to wreak havoc on the rest of us. They do so by shaping society when   influencing politicians into making laws that suit their desires. This is not natural nor is it healthy for our species or our planet.
     Basically this 'System' exploits men most of all. Getting them to agree to behave as workers and soldiers for the cause of the unscrupulous few. We see that overall happiness, contentment, love, honor, safety, and intellectual development towards wisdom for males is not being nurtured. In every sense it is being stolen from them.  All of these in large part stolen, and replaced with false desires, instantaneous gratification, and unhealthy avenues to express some sense of control in a world severely out of balance. Instead of each man being his own vessel of honor, dignity, strength and wisdom (the natural stages of psychological development for human males) most are left wondering at some point, what the real purpose of life is. Serving a societal framework that seems like it becomes more false everyday, more on the brink of collapse than in a state of purposeful evolution towards something meaningful? Dedication to a society that's more and more exclusionary and anti-ecological than sustaining of the glorious diversity so necessary for the continuation of all life on our planet?
     We are all aware enough now to realize that the Human Species exists within an organic ecosystem. This is big. Another thing we need to keep in mind is that we are a transformational biological life form, that when in its most expressive state of health, acknowledges and is aware of the preciousness of all stages of our metamorphosis from conception to death. It is unfortunate that we are not being allowed to express our evolved potential in this current paradigm. Because our societies are designed and dictated by the 1% and their various monopolizing entities.

Recognizing and Punishing Economic Crimes Against Humanity

Written by Stephanie J. Gilley

Many will argue that we have yet to reach the level of what we would all envision as an advanced and humane society. Looking at our world I would have to say there are pockets that have somehow successfully achieved this ideal. I do not include those places that have cultivated the illusion of successful advancement on the backs of their neighbors or by exploiting people and regions far from where they reside. That would be considered cheating. To pretend that the old ways are still OK is laughable, sickening actually. Children as young as 8 understand right from wrong, wastefulness, fair play, respect, equality and dignity why can't our leaders? For people in power to pretend they don't understand or to try and convince us there are no other ways to "get ahead" is a display of their incompetence. To think anything else would put the public in the uncomfortable position of acknowledging our leaders as being criminal. That they have deliberately created conditions in which the majority of human beings live precariously at their mercy. Yes they have purposely put the responsibility onto the backs of the masses by giving us the vote. That way we will always first blame ourselves and each other before we ever could conceive that the problems have been purposely instigated. Sly devils these leaders of ours.
 
Before any ideal can be achieved it is important to recognize obstacles in our path. How true is our own view of reality? Are we fully aware of our potential? Do we know what institutions are working and which have been compromised? When dealing with perception of reality on a mass scale it is important to realize who is in control of the most influential institutions and their agenda. Do not be afraid to ask questions. For instance, you have a right to know if a small minority of people with their own agenda is in control of any influential institution. Everything should be an open book. When there are secrets with regard to the public domain we have problems, we get corruption. This is why public control of all large institutions is a good thing. If you want a private corporation fine, just don't let it get too big or too wealthy; because then it has the power to endanger society and we as a society don't want that. So size, wealth and secrecy can be signs of potential for powerful corruption. These three need to be restricted, regulated and monitored.
 
It is wise to look around and recognize what is not working. What is entirely unacceptable in this day and age. Use our advancements in science and technology as a gauge. We have all done this by comparing our ability as a species to have walked on the moon, to the fact that millions of people are still starving on this planet. Now look at our ability to communicate, how quick, how precise. Compare that to the continued use of "The Violence of War" to solve problems and worse yet as an economic booster. These examples demonstrate how our leaders are exploiting old methods that are out of balance with today's world. They do not make logical sense and are clearly unacceptable.
 
Become aware of how large institutions divide and conquer to retain power over society. Every example used to outwardly categorize humans away from the whole tears at the cohesiveness of society. Excessive focus on gender, race, religion, visual identifiers like skin and hair color, coerced difference, i.e. sports teams; and competition in everything is not natural. It promotes fear of the unknown and hatred for the unfamiliar. Our natural diversity is a good thing because in truth we are almost identical, science has shown us this. So diversity in nature is celebrated and in living genomes it serves to strengthen life not weaken it.
 
Now to deal with the leaders and their obvious criminality. I has to be done. To ignore this responsibility is to condemn generations of humans to more of the same unacceptable suffering and exploitation. We have achieved conscious awareness of the problem. Of the inadequate ability of the "powerful"  to lead the modern world. We have at our disposal the technology to restrain them and to put into place regulations to keep their type of crimes from happening again. To promote humanity beyond the slavery and indignity of living at the mercy of their violent and unsympathetic whims. There are humane answers to every problem facing us today. We need to remove the obstacles in our path.

Corporations Are Not People


Multi-billion dollar corporations are the alien cyborgs science fiction warned us about. They have come to destroy the human race, they’re here and they are quite real. Devoid of empathy and compassion their one goal is to grow uncontrolled by forces of integrity or natural law. Alien cyborgs of the corporate multi-billion dollar persuasion use methods similar to viruses and "piggy-back" upon their host.  Seemingly innocuous at first, these infiltrators are even regarded as a necessary component within society by some.  But this is nothing more than a purposefully deceptive strategy in order to slow the awareness of the host to the imminent danger surrounding it.

If human society is to be free then all frameworks within our society must be designed to exist only to benefit society. Not 1% of the society not 2% unless it is also helpful to the rest of society. An example might be helping a minority group of sufferers from a rare genetic disease. Investing in research of that disease may lead to a better understanding of other problems in direct or even abstract ways. But for 2% of the human population who prosper from the alien cyborgs to require widespread poverty and violence from wars, in order to continue their financial dominance of the planet, represents nothing but a cancerous lesion that must be removed.

It reminds me somewhat of the days in history when all wild things carried some sort of parasite. Be it fleas or lice, it has since become unacceptable to allow these infestations in the modern world. Humans have become wiser, more educated and cleaner leading to an extension of our lifespan.  As we become more aware of our environment inside and outside on the microscopic level and outwardly on the macroscopic level ~ we grow.  It is part of our evolution. Some of our ways are resistant like barnacles on the bottom of an old boat they must be removed in order to forge ahead to better uncharted waters. This is what we do. Humans solve problems, it is our greatest legacy. To be told it can not be done, to be told there is no better way, only entices us more, igniting that enduring spirit within us all ~ to seek adventure.

Because humans on a large part have collectively achieved the ability to feel empathy and compassion certain things in our society have become unacceptable to most of us. We can thank our evolutionary path of enduring injustices, namely the mass murder of war, famine, poverty, and bigotry. Because each of us has had some instances of suffering touch our life through our own or ancestral history we have developed the ability to see. We have become aware on a collective level unprecedented until now.

With this new awareness comes responsibility. We have a responsibility to ourselves and to our legacy as a generation who are sorry for the wrongs done in the past and for the wrongs presently taking place. Like a cancer patient we must gather the courage to face our demons and to fight them with the strength of all our ancestral human spirit. This fight for goodness, to achieve the best humanity has to offer is an evolutionary leap that traces its line back to the origin of time.

If you are like me you might have had these thoughts as well. I feel blessed to have such a home as this Earth. I do not want the living creatures here to hate the human race for the death and destruction we have brought forth. I want to take control of this cancer on our species and throw it to the wind so we can live in peace and balance and happiness all of our days.

How Obama Should Have Responded at Debate on Economics


Proposed Presidential Response:

With regard to economic theory:
        The idea of “Perfect Competition” is something that does not work in the real world. It is a “theory” which requires something known as the invisible hand of the market to equal out the playing field. This to me is a type of Social Darwinism which does not include a compassionate view of fellow human beings. At our level of technological and scientific advancement I believe that human beings are capable of creating a more just and modern society through combined efforts to allow everyone a decent standard of living. My opponent tries to use scare tactics by labeling this with words from the past; words that corporations have spent millions of promotional dollars to “tag” as negative.  You know what those words are; I do not have to repeat them here. I do know that my goals do not include pitting one group of people against the other. My ideas do not include creating a pool of low wage workers for corporations to exploit. In my opinion~ that is exactly what Mr. Romney and his corporate supporters are trying to create. I want all Americans to stand with me against these social planning strategies that my opponents economic policies are devised to implement.
        I believe in the greatness of the United States because I believe in the unique potential of each American. My policies reflect this belief. The time is upon us to renew America.  By investing in our people through education and access to quality healthcare for all, in every stage of life. By investing in our infrastructure through mobilizing and modernizing our resources of energy, transportation and communication technologies. Making these changes will help to create a more powerful and positive environment which encourages each human person to reach their brightest potential. It is my opinion and my earnest belief that this will lead to greater health, wealth and happiness for every citizen.

 

Predictable Romney Reply:  I don’t know what you are talking about Mr. President...

 

Proposed Presidential (quick) Rebuttal:

        Here you go again trying to pull a fast one over on the American people. That is what I do not like or respect about you Mr. Romney. And that is why I must continue with my administration for another 4 years.

 

Proposed Presidential Closing Remarks:

          I am asking the people of America to vote for me and to also vote out the Republicans in Congress and the State Administrations who have caused so much economic harm to our country during my first term in office with their austerity agenda and political stonewalling. Together we can make the changes needed to create a better society for all Americans. How do we do this? We must make sure Republicans are not re-elected to Congress.

            Why is this important? I will tell you. During my first term I have witnessed, and maybe so have you if you have been paying attention, something I did not want to believe, but it happened. It is shameful how Republicans have worked together to harm the American people and the American economy, the world economy for that matter. Because what we do here in the United States does have ramifications throughout the world. Republican stonewalling on many of my proposals especially the jobs bill has caused poverty to metastasize. The policies I have proposed are evidence that despite their worst efforts to hinder an economic recovery, I have managed to keep economic conditions in our country from getting worse and we have seen some improvements. I am confident my policies are moving America Forward where as Republican policies promise to move us backward to darker days for everyone. For everyone except people like my opponent Mr. Romney who make-up a tiny minority now commonly referred to as the 1%.

            I say this because I know for a fact most of you do not live the lifestyle my opponent was fortunate enough to inherit for himself. I do not agree with the way he has been able to avoid paying his fair share of taxes especially when I see all of you struggling. I do not agree with Mr. Romney and others in the Republican Party who shame people for not being able to find a job or for accepting help from food stamps. I know how hard it is to live in a society that has high economic inequality. For most people it can mean a life filled with too much difficulty and uncertainty. The policies put forth by Republicans and supported and promoted by Mr. Romney will only serve to widen the income gap between the haves and the have-nots.  I am asking you to stand with me and I will continue to do all I can so that America becomes a place of opportunity again, for everyone ~ and not just for people like Mr. Romney.
