 With all I have been reading and thinking in regard to the current political, social and economic status of the world,  I decided to reread 1984. 

 I think you have something listed incorrectly on the forum home page.

Oceania is the FDR/Churchill regime.

However, since Hitler was defeated before 1949 when the book was published and during the period Orwell wrote the book, the other two are not correct. I think Eurasia is the Stalin regime and Eastasia is the Japanese or  probably the Chinese. I have not finished the book, in fact  I only just started,  but I feel obliged to point this out.  Later in the piece you list it correctly.

Am I nit-picking? If you feel I am, let me know.

regarding other stuff..... I am researching and formulating. When I get it organized a little better we can discuss some of the ideas.  I believe it is my mission, my destiny, somehow to help alleviate suffering...  you are a helpful influence. A balancing factor.
