Honest Productive Americans,
The link offered above is difficult to read, but not as difficult to read as, say, Noam Chomsky's book titled On language - for me. The words chosen are words that are foreign, as if the writer is writing in a foreign language, the science of a specific specialty.
Language, as a science, is a specialty by which the perspective intends to do more than just measure something, the intention is to understand something, to understand language, to know it, to be able to conceptualize language as it exists. Language, as far as I can understand so far, is a complex development unique to living organisms whereby one living organism, having achieved self awareness, is then able to know, through language, other self aware perspectives. Language is the medium through which one self aware viewpoint is able to view from another self aware viewpoint, by some measure, through language.
Those are my words; not Noam Chomsky's words.
I can read the link above, and I can know the perspective of the writer, but only in so far as the foreign perspective relates to my own perspective; the measure of understanding is limited - severely.
Case in point:
We should say that from the time the Jamaica System was established through 2007, the gap between America's financial revenue and expenditure was never very wide, even though the U.S. had financial deficit most of the time — the biggest annual deficit was around $600 billion. After 2010, however, the U.S. government’s financial revenue and expenditure showed a significant divergent state and could not be converged. This was rather scary to the world.
The viewpoint intends to measure specific things, to see specific things, and to know specific things, to understand specific things, and one of those things is the thing having the name "U.S. government's financial revenue and expenditure".
The writer appears to be claiming authority over that measure of that thing, as if the writer knows the accurate measure of the "U.S. government's financial revenue and expenditure".
I have a very difficult time acknowledging such authority; without actual measures offered as proof of such authority, since I've been clued in on Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports, and other things. Criminals running governments falsify the books, cook the books, and anyone with a brain can figure out why criminals running governments have a vested interest in cooking the books; so where are the books? Where is the information that lends psychological or even material support to the writer who claims to have authority over the measure of the thing in view, this "U.S. government's financial revenue and expenditure" thing?
How much of what is within the power of the people running the "U.S. government"? What is the measure of financial revenue flowing from where it is before it flows to where it goes, as it goes to the U.S. government people?
If you are anything like me, or if you can borrow my viewpoint on this for a moment, you can see past all the falsehood, and you can go right to the principle, and right to the interest, of the actual thing, and avoid all the smoke and mirrors, and free your own viewpoint from the mire, and the tangled web, and know a much more accurate perspective, one that will empower you, to keep the power you earn, and to avoid having your power stolen.
Does that sound like a more workable perspective than the one being offered by the writer in the link at the top of the page?
The power flows from those who create it to those who collect it into the "U.S. government's financial revenue and expenditure" thing. That flow is denominated exclusively in dollars, when the measure of it is done legally, or by legal means, or when the measure of it is done by those people who are hired to run the U.S. government, and they are liars, and they are pathological liars, and it is a well established known fact that they are liars, even a child knows that they are liars, leaving few options to explain why anyone would claim authority over anything the hired liars say, or report, or document, measure, claim, confess, or account.
The power in question can be accurately measured as surplus wealth, as that which is produced in excess of that which is consumed, and this is a fundamental fact of life viewpoint - irrefutable. To refute the fact is to die, proving the fact. Living organisms must expend power to gain power and failure to gain more power than the power expended is death, slow death, or quick death, it is still death when power is less than the minimum, as life no longer has enough power to consume so as to survive.
Easy stuff, easy to see, easy to know, and you do not have to be a licensed, authorized, economics professor, with a badge, or a title, you can know the truth, the facts, and from that point of knowledge, the other pieces of the puzzle fit in place, in rational, logical, order.
Honest productive people combine their power to produce more than they consume and the result is a growing measure of surplus wealth, also known as civilization, or progress, or advancement, or increases in the quality of life, or decreases in the cost of life, or increased standards of living, or longer life spans, or lower child mortality rates, or by any measure imaginable, the same principle, and interests, apply, whereby more than the minimum needed for survival must be produced; failing to do so is failure to produce more than the minimum, which is a state of being whereby there is no surplus wealth, none exists, yet.
The point is such that time is not static, time is fluid, and every life form is trapped in time, one moment a life form may be consuming more than that which is produced, even to a point at which body fat is being consumed, so as to survive, and at that point in time, the life form had better be consuming that fat in the process of producing more power, failure is death, and it isn't time to go on vacation, if there is no surplus wealth anywhere, if the only measure of surplus wealth is the body fat inside that one living being at that time. While staring death in the face, burning the only surplus wealth left on earth, that measure of body fact, in that one human being, as time goes by, as that one life forms seeks something better than certain, miserable, starving death, as the last of the body fat is used up, that being may do something absurd, such as looking for food, or planting corn, or seeking help from other honest productive people, and doing so in rational order. Or that one being may resort to crime, but that choice does not produce anything, that choice steals that which is already produced.
The corn plant produces edible food; which is surplus wealth, in physical form. Harvest, eat, and avoid a miserable death by starvation, for lack of the power of knowing what to do, how to do what to do, and when to do that which can be done, to avoid miserable death by starvation - use the power left to make more power, before all the power is gone, and do so before it is too late.
A. Honest productivity (which increases power)
B. Crime (which decreases power)
Simple stuff.
While the legal criminals have their victims focused on the dollar measure of life on earth, the victims can use the power they still have left, to gain more power, before it is too late, simply, easily, and without resort to deceit, and without resort to threats of violence, and without resort to acts of violence: just stop using the fraudulent measure, and invent instead, produce, and maintain an accurate measure, to replace the fraudulent one.
If you let the criminals dictate to you, they will tell you that you are broke, that is what they do, while they rob you blind, deaf, dumb, starving, tortured, and mass murdered, and while they are not broke, except by the measure of moral bankruptcy, the same measure that you pay for, as they send you the bill, and you pay for it, since there isn't anyone else who can pay for it, since the only source of surplus wealth is the honest productive moral people who have the power to trust each other, and therefore they have the power to employ division of labor, and therefore they have the power to employ specialization, and therefore they have the power to actually produce more than they consume, because they produce liberty, and they maintain liberty, and in liberty the honest productive people are not spending all their power stabbing each other in the back, while making sure that they are not being stabbed in the back.
A. Liberty (more power is produced)
B. Crime (produced power is consumed)
Liberty is the only state of being that is powerful enough to afford the living beings that which is necessary in order to produce more than that which is consumed, it is the only measure of living by which human beings can prosper, failure to produce liberty, by some measure, is too costly, too much power is expended by each living being fighting each other, for control over a steadily reducing supply of surplus wealth, when liberty is rendered powerless, as lying legal criminals out-law liberty.
The stakes are high, but by whose measure is liberty already defeated?
By whose measure are the honest productive people now powerless, and incapable of producing never before known amounts of surplus wealth in abundance?
Are you really willing to bet the farm on the measure of your power dictated to you by legal criminals? Where do you think that investment of your power will lead?
Is it past time to invest your power in a slightly more accurate measure of your power, a measure you don't need to trust so much as you can simply know, in black and white, logically, rationally, reasonably, understandably know, as a well established, continuously improving, record of the facts? Accurate accounting made legal, may be four words that are foreign to you; but ask yourself why - please.
Have you been drinking the cool-aid?
Stop.
Practice something right now, just for a few minutes right now, and then if you see that this practice produces a benefit for you, think about practicing this practice again tomorrow, and see if the practice helps you somehow, someway, by some measure, as the practice may help you gain power, by using the power you have left, to gain more power, by this practice.
Think about a time in the future whereby you look at all the people wringing their hands over the perilous situation with "The Dollar" as foreigners, people having nothing whatsoever to do with you, as if they exist on another planet, in another age, or even in an almost forgotten fantasy fable story for children. You have a means by which you connect to all the other honest productive people and that connecting medium is honest, accurate, the highest measure of honestly to date, and that measure of honesty is continuously improved upon, even right now, and the accuracy of the measure is the highest accuracy to date, and that accuracy measure improves more and more each moment, and the cost of that medium of exchange is almost nothing to you, and to everyone else, and the cost of maintaining the medium of exchange is lowering each moment in time.
The practice I'm offer to you has two parts, where one part intends to fade out, and the other part intends to fade in.
Part 1
Fade out:
Honest productive people slow down, then stop, then reverse the focus of their attention on a fraudulent medium of exchange that connects honest productive people to the legal criminals who steal the power produced by the honest productive people, through that fraudulent medium of exchange that the honest productive people are focused upon to a high degree currently.
In other words:
Stop connecting to the criminals by rejecting their legal money power connection to you. Stop thinking exclusively in terms of dollars; and to do so you must begin that process.
Part II
Fade in:
Honest productive people begin to conceptualize an improved alternative to the connection that currently connects them to the legal criminals, and once that process begins, one person at a time, one moment at a time, and as that process gains currency, as that process gains traction, as that process becomes more popular, and as that process goes viral, and as that process hits critical mass, that new, improved, better, higher quality, and lower cost connection will be invented, produced, and maintained, and it will improve steadily, and the cost of it will decrease steadily over time.
In other words:
When that which is harmful is known to be harmful, and when that harmful connection is then avoided, there will be room, time, energy, power, in abundance, in the absence of the costly, parasitic, criminal, connection, there will be abundant power sufficient to begin investing that surplus power toward the process of improving the connection between honest productive people, and at that time the measure of surplus wealth will be known, and it will be accurately known, and the growth of it will be knowable, the growth of surplus wealth will be accurate public knowledge, and no longer will honest productive people be inspired to fight each other for a supposed scare supply of power that just so happens to not to be scarce to the legal criminals who steal it, and then the legal criminals use that abundant supply of stolen power to steal more, and more, and more. The steal your power and then the claim that you are broke; which is half true, and probably why you believe them. The other half of the truth exposes the power of the lie. You are broke, but only because your power is stolen, then your power is used to steal more power from you. The legal criminals are not broke. You are broke. The power of the lie can inspire the people who are broke to stop producing more power, so as to cause the criminals to be broke too. How will that work for you? You are already broke, why work, if all you are doing is making the legal criminals rich? If you stop working, the legal criminals go broke too? How absurd can your thinking get, if you do not understand the full measure of the crime? All you have to do is disconnect the connection. Now you are rich. Now the legal criminals are either poor, or they are consuming their fat, or they are consuming each other, because that is what they do, the consume sources of power, they do not produce power. Power is produced by honest productive people. Disconnect, and see what happens, rather than stop working, rather than starve yourself in the effort to kill off the parasites, just remove the connection the parasite has made, and has maintained, between you and it.
The capacity of honest productive people to produce never before measured abundant supplies of surplus wealth is real, knowable, understandable, with a little practice. What is in the way? Have the legal criminals stolen your liberty of mind?
If so, check mate, and too bad for you, poor, poor, poor, you.
If not, what is in your way?
Do you lack a game plan?
Do you lack an accurate, equitable, honest, connecting medium that connect all the honest productive people together as one powerful force used to increase the standard of living, and at the same time lower the cost of living, and at the same time, the same connecting medium avoids connections to the criminals?
Yes, no, maybe?
Honest productive people can admit ignorance, it can be a step toward something other than ignorance.
Settling for authoritative sounding falsehoods cannot be afforded much longer, and the cost, the bill, will be borne. Those who bear that error will not include those who cause that error, as those who cause that error do so on purpose, willfully, as a rule, they cause it, they know better, you don't, they produce that falsehood for your consumption, not theirs, just look at their standard of living, are they broke, as they tell you that "we" are broke? Will you wait until the legal criminals have consumed all the power they stole from you, and then they need you to produce more, and then they give you permission to make more power, so that they can steal more?
Really?
"We" are broke?
Are you really buying it?
Try practicing the fade out, and fade in practice offered above, for a few moments once. Give it a small measure of your power of moral discernment, and if you have any left, and if you can spare a miniscule portion of what you have left, let me know what you think about that practice of fading out with the criminal stuff, and fading in with something better.
I'm curious.
