Does the Government ‘Own’ You?

Have you looked at the meaning of the word government lately? Merriam-Webster’s top definition is: the act or process of governing; specifically : authoritative direction or control. While some have danced around the question of whether the meaning, and by inference, purpose of government is authoritative control of the mind, I’d like to call attention to the question of authority itself.…

Principle-based Elections: A Makable Change

After watching the third presidential debate and the “roast” fundraiser the following night in New York where Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were featured speakers, it first occurred to me that the best action the American People can take at this time is refuse to vote for either Democrat or Republican candidate.

U.S. Politics: It’s a Sham Shame

It is a pleasure to be at a “normal” keyboard again. For any who have wondered, after being unable to raise sufficient funds to climb out of arrears in the place where I resided for 11 years, I accepted and cooperated with my landlord to vacate the premises via an eviction process. Of our belongings that weren’t given away or…

The Forgotten Players of War

On this day of remembrance, I took some liberties with someone’s Veteran’s Day poster to create this graphic. To be sure, the numbers of casualties, disease, destruction, and deaths caused by warfare significantly dwarfs the number of liars and lies told that caused the conflicts in the first place. Therefore, giving some attention to the instigators, fabricators, and prevaricators,  should be easy.…

Rise of the Disillusioned

Disillusionment, or to be disillusioned, is generally considered to be a negative state. Indeed, once disillusioned, an individual’s “happiness index” is likely to go down for a time. Seeing the world differently, particularly when the heart is caring, means seeing and caring for the whole. It is the height of illusion to care only for some, such as “us good…

The bin Laden Perception Campaign: Who is Being Served?

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNYmK19-d0U&w=448&h=252&hd=1] President Obama, in his own words (or that of his speech writer). President Obama’s announcement of the killing of Osama bin Laden on May 1 has triggered a massive ORCHESTRATION and MANIPULATION of public perception, not only of Americans, but anyone who thinks they have a legitimate axe to grind about AMERICA. However, we should make a distinction between…

'Shift' Has Happened: Hail to the New Chief

The major event of my day on January 20, 2009, was returning home from a quick trip to Northern California, where I interviewed two remarkable people. The major event of the world was the inauguration of Barack Obama as the 44th president of the United States. While I’ve yet to see his entire address, the light of the shift that…

The Bailout: Makes No Sense to Me

IF the American People don’t want a bailout, then congress should be looking at, and seriously discussing options that don’t include one. It should be exploring how the economy, and some would say, “the market,” would adjust and restructure itself in a post-collapse world. Instead of taking patronizing position (“There there America, you don’t know what you’re doing.”), the presidential…

Transcending Conspiracy to Grasp the Oneness Opportunity

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but that doesn’t mean there’s no conspiracy. Look at our health care system that, for the past 100 years has continued making “poison, attack, and kill” its primary strategy in the treatment of disease. This flourishes despite the fact that, as this article link shows, survival rates for radiation and chemotherapy treatment for certain stages…
