A ZERO SUM GAME

A ZERO SUM GAME

That Israel will once again sabotage the so called mid east peace process, or that US will carry out air strikes inside Pakistan, that US will send personnel in Pakistani territory. Or that the US government would want to spy on its citizens or limit their freedoms are not real news. Nor is the attempt of the US government to censor a book critical of its underhanded dealings in the name of national security. It is all old news. Not worthy of more attention.

Could it be that we are kept dull, could it be that we are doing it to ourselves,could it be a conspiracy? Just like in Any third world country, when people are hungry or looking for work nothing else matters, you are just trying to survive, damn the freedoms,and who worries about a tyranny?

While we wait for the establishment of the "New World Order", we fail to realize that it has already happened. Like I said in the " New Word Order, 2003", when you fail no one cares, we have too many people in the world already to care about someone who we have no use for and that they are not making a positive contribution any way.

But then there is this, millions of homeless and jobless (more of them world wide) makes for better profits for bankers and the industrialists.  And as we need more people with better education for today's job market, we fail to realize that there are no jobs in the market, A job created in China or India only means that a job is lost somewhere else, like US for instance. Yet we are talking about a recovery in the auto industry while we are making half as many cars, a stabilization in housing prices while the people are being put out on the streets, and more and higher education while the college tuition is going up by 12percent per year.

In a "Zero Sum Game" there is a win and there is a loss, the win and loss negate each other out, so if we only focus on the wins the losses do not matter. But then there are real losers, it might be you, it might be you  in the next go around.  

A truth is only true if accepted as such, if not then it is not truth anymore.

There is a silly  game, a card or a key tag on one side it says" How to keep an idiot busy, see the other side" of course the other side says the same thing too. For the past thirty or forty years we had Democrats and Republicans in congress and the white house, we have talked about family, education, poverty,  budgets, media, arts, you name it then tell me one problem, one thing, anything we have resolved. The fact is we are spending  ever more monies, on everything, and have nothing to show for it. Not only  we are more in debt than any nation ever was, we are also more in  debt than the rest of the humanity combined and we are "the richest nation on earth", it would be funny were it not so very very sad.

Next time someone mentions that they want to create jobs, you can tell them that they are full of shit, because you know that they are. And how do you know? Because I am going to tell you.
For the past thirty years or more the United States has been the engine of nothing more than creating money. So it was bound to happen, like I have been saying for many years that the United States was being turned in to a third world country, and that both the Democrats and the Republicans were backing the policies with the same outcome regardless of their course.

As you can  hopefully see now, after two years of the Democrats and the Republicans waiting in the wings to take over,  no one has seriously mentioned what is happening with the long term unemployed, or where did all the people go who have lost houses (by the millions) in the housings great debacle). Even though there have been stories about people losing houses or jobs should we not be seeing the homeless and the destitute that are out on the streets and in the parks and occupying abandoned houses? Or did they ll manage to get housing  and food, or did they all decide to disappear?

And while we discuss the merits and the costs of the Democratic and Republican health care plans  the result will ultimately be as to who gets health care and how much money they have. ( I have told you so many times)

Let me assure you first that it does not take a genius to herd cattle, you can see that in many examples from the third world countries where many an illiterate kid goes out with cattle every morning.

Such is the situation with the electorate these days. It was just two years ago when we elected Obama with a hope and change message, we were hoping for a change, the ship of the country was sinking fast and  the last guy, Bush was on a short list of  doodoo brains.

How soon do we forget, today once again we are looking for hope and change, we just call it something else, Tea Party, Restoring Honor, State rights, Obama care, we just want some one to blame our problems on, like we had nothing to do with it. Like the little kids always say, " not me!".

Well hell, "ME" people,  if Obama was not the one, then no one out there is, no matter your party affiliation or the color of your necktie. We are looking for simple answers and the simpletons are ruling the day.

And you know what? I am hoping too, I am hoping for a solid republican victory, I hope they do take the house and the Senate too. Cause I will be laughing my butt off, again! If anyone thinks for a minute that they have the solutions I have the news for you, they don't. They can not fix the budget,  they can not  fix the deficits, they only want their one more chance to steal  before the country falls in to abyss, permanently.

And as for the die hard Republicans, the Rush, Bohnner, Hannity, Palin wing, as Democrats were like the cattle herded by Obama who stepped in to a pile of you know what, this time you are the sheep being  herded to the doors of the slaughter house.

It used to be that you had to exhibit some maturity and skills to be considered an adult. Today most of the people use their 21st birthday acting foolish and getting drunk.

OF APPLES AND ORANGES


I was thinking about the square root of infinity, obviously I wasn't getting any  where fast. Does it matter if you  don't have religion? Does that make you an atheist? Or does being an atheist make you  immoral.

Then there is the other mathematical  problem,  an equation can not be balanced, if "GOD" is a factor on either side. Thus there will be no world peace so long that a God exists.

Is it not odd that we  try to  follow the scriptures, written in the days of the stone age and then the others doing the same that THEY are back wards? Are not all these holy books telling the same story, and the same laws with little differences, if some one has thrown out Jeremiah, or Leviticus from the Bible, it is news to me, so how is one faith nicer than the other?

We look at the cosmos and see galaxies, billions of them floating around seemingly without purpose, while firmly believing there is a cause and purpose to our existence. If there were to be a purpose for the universe and the galaxies, then surely what ever we are or what we do is totally insignificant in comparison, can you deal with that? Strangely we have this faith from people who were trying to build a tower to reach the heavens.Aren't all monotheist religions based on the same ancient lure.

How do some of them believe they are different than the others when they all believe the same stuff? How is one group of them better than any other group?

THE LAST NAIL

THE LAST NAIL


We will go back to Mr. bush again soon, if I can remember and don't let myself get distracted by some newer problem, for now it suffices to say that most of the problems we are facing in the economy have roots in the time of Bush(W) presidency and before, in other words "the "carp" did not happen over night.

As we are nearing another election, both the Democrats and the Republicans are looking for power from where they can screw the American people all over again. True that Obama and the Democrats have spent a lot of money, and also passed a health care bill we as a country can not afford, but what are the other options? I think by now you know what I think, instead of fooling the people that we give a damn, we should just go ahead and tell them if you don't have money you will die, that is the Republican plan and that will also be the result of the of the Democratic health care bill.

A recovery, by definition will mean that we will go back to full employment, house values and the stock markets will recover fully, and consumption will rise along with wages and benefits, No sane economist ( are there any? ever?) will say that it is possible in your lifetime,

Hope springs eternal in the human breast;
Man never Is, but always To be blest:
The soul, uneasy and confin'd from home,
Rests and expatiates in a life to come.

-Alexander Pope,

Hope is the admission that there is  no hope left. (M.N.R.).

The political class in a fight of their life to feed on the  remnants of what used to be the great United States, one last time, before it all changes for ever.

No doubt, there is money to be made, while the government is still spending borrowed sums, The shameless  facade of  hucksters. Talking about  decreased taxes, while not saying that they will take away the social security benefits, eliminate more jobs and cut back in education and health care is just as crooked as those promising everything for everyone without saying that their promises could not be kept if we taxed veryone at a hundred percent plus.

We, as a nation, and the world, are in debt, every single country on earth is living on borrowed money. Even the richest nations have borrowed money against the future income. Yet the governments keep borrowing and spending monies they do not have? How is it possible? It is called the banking system, or the IMF, banks are allowed to CREAT money so they can loan it to the governments, in turn the governments sell their people to the banks, like I have been saying for years, " WE ARE BEING SOLD IN TO SLAVERY, WE JUST DON'T KNOW IT YET".

I discussed this problem of our national debt and its causes on line in February of 2009, and how we  were sold in to slavery by our government, you can read it here. It should actually be called the politics of money.

What we have now is an economy on life support, and the example of the politicians on the left and the right is that of someone stealing the wallet of a dying person.

Thank you Mr. Bush

09-01-2010

THANK YOU MR. BUSH
There are some people today complaining that we are just not giving Mr. Bush enough credit for the war in Iraq. So it goes, in the name giving credit where credit is due.

Dear Mr. president Bush, (W)

You know, (may be not really) I wrote to you numerous times during your presidency, about the economy, about the direction of our country,  about the wars, education, morals, health care and  poverty. It may be that you did not personally read my E mails, but I am sure they are part of your library, I even sent copies of these emails, to my senator, Shelby, and also to my local newspaper and a talk radio show, pretty sure the Department of homeland security has copies.

In April 2007,  I wrote to you  about the collapse of the housing market and the subsequent demise of the economy, yet in August of the same year you were bragging that seventy percent of Americans owned their own homes.

"In 1929, Irving Fisher, Professor of Economics at Yale University, famously stated: "Stocks have reached what looks like a permanently high plateau." Jim Cramer told his viewers shortly before Bear Stearns filed for bankruptcy: "Bear Stearns is fine." Hank Paulson advised us on May 7, 2008 that "The worst is likely to be behind us." My personal favorite comes from financial expert Donald Luskin. On September 14, 2008 he wrote an article in the Washington Post stating "...anyone who says we're in a recession, or heading into one -- especially the worst one since the Great Depression -- is making up his own private definition of "recession." And probably for his own political purposes." Dan Solin, Huffington Post

May be you were not lying, may be you were just misinformed, like those who wanted to take the office of the president of the United States, like Obama, like I was saying why would anyone want to be the leader of the upcoming mess we are going to be in.
