The Best Reason to Vote for a President Trump: Breaking down conspiracies and unleashing new technological economies

Not only with Donald Trump as President of the United States do we get a guy who will end common core, bust through EPA regulations which prevent new construction in America, literally take the lid off the economy, close off the open border insurgency that is currently taking place, be pro military around the world, take a stand against drugs, rearrange the trade imbalances created through devalued currencies globally, expand the second amendment, and stop the process of corporate inversions by restructuring the tax code to lower the taxes which inspire valuable companies to flee to less top-heavy cost countries—by design, but we get a guy who will actually take on serious challenges like the one shown about 20 minutes into the following Alex Jones video.

Obviously, anybody with a brain knows that there are shadow governments running global politics and they work through lobbyists in Washington D.C. to advance the strategies decided behind very closed doors throughout the European theater.  If America wants to survive into next century, that influence has to stop, but unfortunately most political candidates in American politics need money to get elected, and they can’t get that money unless they work with these shadow governments.  What is very interesting about Donald Trump is that even as a front-runner he has been willing to do interviews with Alex Jones who has a reputation as a conspiracy theorist.  Surely not everything is as Alex proposes, but where there is smoke, there is fire, and Alex points to a lot of smoke.  Trump, being a mover and shaker in very high places and a political donor himself knows all the characters involved and he knows what the real fight is, and he is obviously a fan of Alex Jones.  This leads to a lot of very productive possibilities under a Trump presidency regarding the influence that shadow governments have on our political process.  I’d like to see someone put an end to the practice, and Trump is poised to be that person who can finally do so.  Better yet, he has shown that he’s actually willing to take on that shadow government for the sake of American sovereignty—and that is probably the best reason to vote for him.

I have written myself about the problems with 9/11.  There is something very fishy about the whole thing—particularly regarding building seven.  No plane hit it yet it went down among all the other terrorist activity at the time.  CLICK HERE TO REVIEW.  The establishment has labeled people who talk about 9/11 with anything but patriotism “truthers” which is to throw them into a tin-hated conspiracy theorist category like Alex Jones.  Well, as Trump indicated in recent debates, there is something wrong with the Bush family relationship to 9/11 and likely the responsibility for the whole thing is likely the responsibility of Saudi Arabia.  Trump obviously feels compelled to reveal that truth to the American public and as president I think he will, which will go a long way to sticking a dagger into the shadow governments that are controlling oil prices and motivating trade imbalances around the world to “redistribute” wealth.

Under a Trump presidency, I think we will find cures for cancer, leaps in technological advancement and entirely new economies forming around invention.  Saudi Arabia is holding down the world with OPEC and secret agreements that keep the Middle East a major player in world affairs because of dirty energy.  As I’ve said before Thorum is a much better energy alternative and the only thing holding that back is essentially government regulation—which someone like Donald Trump could put an end to.  The way to shut down Saudi Arabia is to deregulate energy and lower the value of their oil through competition.  All these good things would happen because of Trump’s free market capitalism approach.  It would be better than the 80s were, it would be something America has never experienced before.  But better yet, it would truly end some of the terrorism that Saudi Arabia sponsors against the United States.  After all, they can’t bring much harm if they don’t have the money to fund illicit activities against us.  The best way to destroy the shadow governments of Europe is to defund them—to take the money they use against us out of their pockets and put that wealth back to where they looted it from—American GDP.  

Many of the good things mentioned above technologically exist right now—CLICK TO REVIEW, particularly in the field of regenerative health.  Virgin Galactic has recovered their SpaceShipTwo just ahead of the South Carolina primary and they are moving toward commercialized space flight very quickly.  For that to happen properly, and the huge burst of economic activity that will follow it, the shadow governments that present are holding back our civilization have to be eliminated.  If there is no better reason to vote for Donald Trump, it is for him to do his job of ushering in this new generation of technologically oriented economic activity.  So long as stupid little things like 28 pages of a 9/11 report are missing there are still too many secrets influencing the management of our country to protect people who want to hurt it with strategies designed by those who want to smooth America out across the world the way they’d apply butter to bread—not caring at all for what that does to American sovereignty.

It’s not enough just to have a constitutional oriented president in the 2016 election.  We need someone with the courage to take on the shadow governments and Trump is the only person in well over a century that has shown a willingness to consider it.  Trump when he had a lot to lose risked a great deal to take on Jeb Bush in the South Carolina debates and just a few days later, took on the one world government aims of the Pope.  Trump has a way of striking without making it so he can’t deal with people in the future.  Trump masterfully put the Pope in his place within the Vatican and he essentially knocked Jeb Bush out of the presidential race.  I would love to see a Donald Trump standing in front of the United Nations busting up the shadow governments that drape off it—then working with Richard Branson to get Virgin Galactic into space with commercial destinations, such as what should have already been built on the moon.  But before that can happen all the stuff on the moon that is classified, such as the reasons the world stopped trying to go to space in the 70s—needs to get out on the table and be dealt with.  I personally want to visit a Holiday Inn or even a Trump Tower on the moon within twenty years.  There’s no reason we can’t have such a thing—only the self-imposed limits we make for ourselves which governments and religion use to hold us to the control of shadow governments of European motivation.

We are on the precipice of the greatest advancements the world has ever seen—or we’ll fall behind and languish in failure.  Donald Trump represents more than just an immediate opportunity to repair American sovereignty.  He represents much more than that.  He could literally pull the lid off many big things that have always been there but are hidden behind scandalous incidents like Saudi Arabian relationships deep within our own government influenced completely by the money given to them by OPEC deals creating false oligopolies—making them insanely rich by shadow governments that benefit directly from that relationship—which goes all the way back to the stupidity of the Sykes-Picot agreement after World War I.  Trump more than anybody shows an inclination to unleash these old conspiracies and put them on the table to dissolve so that a new economy can emerge which would be beneficial to everyone—except the old money shadow government types.  If you have ever read The Great Gatsby dear reader you know how jealous old money can be of new money.  That is the case with the world against the United States.  There is a reason Richard Branson of the United Kingdom has Virgin Galactic in the United States and not in Europe.  We need a president who will protect that reason and pull away the veil for the good of the world.  But now you know why the establishment fears him so much.  And they should.  Because they have been up to no good for far, far too long—and when people find out about it—they’ll be very angry.

Most of the limits we face early in this 21st century are entirely artificial.  Those limits need to be removed by the next President of the United States.  Watch all the videos included above for support information.

The Blackmail of Jim Spurlino: Attack, attack, and attack until the person who did it to you is having nightmares

Jim Spurlino’s campaign manager called me to clarify that the issue his candidate for Ohio’s 8th Congressional District was facing was not sexual impropriety, but was in fact a child support dispute.  I did a review about a ‘meet the candidates’ night I videotaped for the West Chester Tea Party and provided my opinions based on the performance—of which Spurlino wasn’t present.  CLICK TO REVIEW.  I liked Jim Spurlino because of this following USA Today article. 

If Donald Trump needs any help fulfilling his promise to build a wall along the U.S-Mexico border, he’ll find a volunteer in Ohio.

Jim Spurlino, owner of Middletown, Ohio’s Spurlino Materials and a candidate for Ohio’s 8th Congressional District, offered to send his company’s “mobile concrete plants” to the border to build a barricade that prevents immigrants from coming across illegally.

“The nation needs a concrete-strong border to protect patriotic Americans from foreign terrorists and illegal job-snatchers,” Spurlino said in a statement Monday.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/02/01/jim-spurlino-ohio-trump-border-wall/79650152/#

I thought that was great, but then out of nowhere Spurlino released this information:

“These professional politicians must fear me,” Spurlino said. “I’m not perfect, but I’ll be honest with the voters.”

Spurlino, the owner of Spurlino Materials in Middletown, did not elaborate on what details could have ruined his reputation. He did say it stemmed from the end of a previous marriage.

Spurlino has been divorced twice, according to court records. His most recent divorce came in 2013.

“I would hope that this campaign and my opponents would stick to the issues,” he said. “That’s what I know the voters want to hear about.”

Spurlino called the tactics “cloak and dagger crazy stuff,” before alleging one of his opponents also has stalked his 16-year-old daughter on social media.

“I really can’t believe that kind of stuff happens,” he said.

Spurlino says in his campaign website he and his current wife have raised eight children together.

Neither Spurlino nor anyone on his campaign staff was immediately available for comment.

http://votespurlino.com/

http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2016/02/10/congressional-candidate-says-he-blackmailed/80100384/

Talk about mixed messages.  On one hand Spurlino appeared to be a Trump-like candidate, who was ready to fight, but then he was a victim of blackmail playing a sympathy card.  It seemed like two different people who is a huge alarm to me.  I was relieved in a way to find that the situation wasn’t some kind of embarrassing sexual indiscretion because that is a major no, no for me.  If a man can’t keep his house in order at home, they won’t be worth anything as a public candidate.  Child support can be a serious issue as well, but often that kind of thing can be screwed up by government accounting, which happens more than people might think.  I have a big problem with our social trend toward the courts mediating in family affairs.  I mean just recently a Butler County judge favored a swingers club in West Chester ruling against the trustees—so the courts can be just as screwed up as anybody.  The best way to avoid it is to not get divorced.  Spurlino has been married three times and that is a problem, but so has Trump—who I do support.  So if I believe in the candidate, I can overlook some things.  But once you let the government-run your family and divide up finances, it’s over, they rule over your family and its affairs and I can see how someone could end up in trouble with a government-run child support agency controlled by incompetent employees like those found at the BMV.

http://www.mydaytondailynews.com/news/news/records-8th-district-candidate-was-past-due-on-chi/nqRLJ/

I spoke to Jim’s campaign manager for a while and we talked about a lot of things, including who he thinks sabotaged Spurlino with the alleged blackmail and I can believe it.  If Spurlino brands himself as a Trump-type candidate strong on immigration, there are a lot of establishment types in Butler County who would have a big problem with him.  I can see them trying to destroy a candidate who made big news for a local race in USA Today.  I remember when I made it into a Forbes article over a political issue and saw how the other side reacted with an eye bleeding vengeance filled with panic—there was never a more ruthless attempt to destroy a person just for being a good person.  If Spurlino could evoke that kind of anger against the establishment, he’d do a good service to conservatism.  But he can’t do that if he puts out a couple of campaign videos trying to apologize for something to get out ahead of a story that appears not to be a very big deal—it’s a family issue that looks like it’s been resolved within the family.  The courts might be in a fuss, but that is likely because they are idiots.  By trying to deal with the issue in a clandestine fashion it provoked a liberal Dayton Daily News reporter to do a lot of digging to find out what the big secret was—which turned out to be far less scandalous than it might have otherwise been.

Just a bit of advice and this goes for anybody.  If someone slips an envelope under your door trying to hang you for something—well the best thing is to be as squeaky clean as possible so you never have to worry about such a thing.  But if it does happen, attack.  Attack, attack, and attack until the person who did it to you is having nightmares about you.  Never let up and drive them into the ground so that they can never get up.  That is my policy and a lot of people have had to learn the hard way.  They read here every day hoping that somehow some way that I’ll stumble and fall so they can peek their heads above the ground in some way once again.  And I’d say to Spurlino, if you are a tough guy, then be one.  Don’t play politics with losers and let your aggression fly loose.  If you have what it takes to work in Trump’s wake, then be bold and hit hard.  If you don’t get elected this time, so what.  Just don’t play it safe.  We have enough people who have been elected to the 8th District who were just pacifists looking for a stable job.  We need fighters in modern politics and the best test of that is in how you deal with people who try to challenge you on the campaign trail.  If someone did you wrong—destroy them.   Don’t complain about it, just take care of it.

John Kasich’s One Fan: The typical voter of Ohio’s biggest RINO

Look how relieved John Kasich, governor of Ohio, golfer with president Obama, loser to the labor unions, and Obamacare supporter through Medicaid expansion was when his one fan wanted a hug in front of people.  

That is weak.

Understanding James Taggart: Eating breakfast and being the “engine of the world”

I never mind helping people who are not as fortunate as me.  I was born with certain gifts and over many years I developed them in a very unique way through a lot of hard work and unusually tenacious endurance.  As I had the little breakfast shown in the following picture I understood why the great American novel Atlas Shrugged was one of the best stories ever told.  It told the story of a philosophy which had emerged under Adam Smith’s relatively new economic considerations and properly identified the essence of culture in the United States.  Sometimes you only know things innately, which I always have—well before a writer like Ayn Rand was able to put definitions to some of those thoughts.  But at times such as the moment I took that picture, literally on top of the world, literature—especially good literature—provides a refuge for people of thought to associate with the greatness they are primarily inclined to.  It’s one thing to say that Atlas Shrugged is the great American novel—probably the best that has ever been produced primarily as a product from the United States—but it’s another to consider it within a foreign culture on the other side of the world.  I can only appreciate the benefits of having a hobby like the one I do where books are my most valuable possessions as I cut into an egg with such a magnificent view.IMG_0984

It is easy for me to love Atlas Shrugged, because I identify with most of the main protagonists.  If I couldn’t, Atlas Shrugged would be an insult.  I would say that the novel was not written for the masses, or even what the Occupy communists consider to be the 1%.  Atlas Shrugged was written for the 1% of the 1% who completely understand the concept of Atlantis as proposed in the novel—and I am clearly one of them.  I’ve always known it, but on that particular day in that very different place, it was clearer to me than it ever has been.  Not everyone gets it and I spend a considerable amount of my time trying to help those who don’t—not out of some altruistic motivation, but simply because I feel sorry for those not born with the gifts and the mind that I have.  Even though I have worked hard to have that mind, and I’ve taken action over a lifetime to preserve it with an emphasis on authenticity, I do feel sorry for the people in this world who by no real fault of their own read Atlas Shrugged and can only identify with the villain—James Taggart.

Most public education institutions and advanced degrees around the world produce the villains of Atlas Shrugged. Most families nurture their children into the values which most embody James Taggart—yet he is certainly the vilest villain of the classic American story.  Yet if a scholar or philosopher really wanted to get into the nitty-gritty of what Thomas Paine and Adam Smith were considering with the American experiment it was to construct a world where the top 1% of the very top 1% of intellectual aptitude could bring to the world through their natural inclinations advancements in human civilization—which is essentially what Atlas Shrugged is all about.  It’s about what the world could be like if people like James Taggart were removed from holding society to the vile Vico cycle of European thought—which has likely plunged thinking minds into primitive contemplation for millions of years.  So I sipped on my orange juice, let the waitresses properly pamper me as royalty—because in that culture-they instinctively understand what drives the motor of the world, and I watched the world below with a glad reservation that I won’t soon forget as I thought about all the James Taggart’s who were out there holding the world back from its true potential.

James “Jim” Taggart (1977-2020?), in Ayn Rand‘s novel Atlas Shrugged, was President of the Taggart Transcontinental Railroad. But instead of being a productive businessman, James Taggart sought to profit by obtaining and trading various government favors. But his actual motive was not so much the effective mulching of the public, or even of businessmen more productive than he. His motive was the destruction of the productive, a motive that stemmed entirely from jealousy. He carefully hid that motive even from himself, until the day came when he caught himself attempting to inflict pain on another man when that act had no profit in it. On that day, he suffered a complete neuropsychiatric collapse. Whether he lived or died immediately after that, is unclear.

Taggart is an example of a corporatist businessman of the sort who nearly destroyed British industry under the system that operated from 1945 until the election of Margaret Thatcher.

James Taggart was born in 1977, the son of the President of the TTRR and the descendant of Nathaniel Taggart, the original founder. But even as a child he showed that he was not made of the same stuff of which Nathaniel Taggart was made.

His sister Dagny definitely was, and he knew it and resented it. He once told her that, though she was named after their (great) grandmother Dagny, wife of Nathaniel, in temperament she better resembled Nathaniel than Old Dagny. Young Dagny took that as a compliment, a thing that James Taggart perhaps never understood.

One particular episode from their adolescence both illustrated his attitude and served as a prelude to things to come. His father made him a present of a motorboat, and the dockmaster at the Taggart family compound started to teach him how to drive it. The lesson did not go well. Then, in frustration, James turned to Francisco d’Anconia, a boy nearly three years younger than he who was visiting at the time, and challenged him to drive the motorboat. Francisco not only drove it; he demonstrated almost as much proficiency as an adult might be expected to have. James Taggart resented that encounter, and Francisco, ever since.

James Taggart attended college at the age of sixteen. When he graduated (1998), he took his first job with the railroad—in its Public Relations department. In sharp contrast, his sister Dagny, five years his junior, started working as a night telephone operator at a local railroad station. From there she would work her way through the Operating Department.

The John Galt Line, with its rails and even an entire bridge made of Rearden Metal, opened on July 22, 2017, with a highly successful first run. Again Jim was able to take credit for it in the public mind, so much so that a young woman, Cherryl Brooks, actually fell in love with him because she thought that he was the productive genius behind the line.

Jim saw in Cherryl a woman trying to better herself, a thing with which he had no patience. And he saw a way to make her pay for that error: he would marry her and make abundantly clear that she could never be good enough to be a railroad president’s wife. And so he courted her and eventually proposed to her.

In the meantime, he saw the economic boom that Colorado was enjoying, due entirely to the excellent transportation afforded by the John Galt Line, now once again part of the TTRR system. And he determined, with the help of a number of unions and other like-minded organizations, to destroy it—by proposing a series of burdensome and often contradictory regulations.

The regulations went through in November of 2017. They produced the result that Jim Taggart had hoped for. But not all the results were as he predicted. The most spectacular result was one that worried him, at least to some degree: Ellis Wyatt, who had developed a method for extracting oil from shale, set fire to his oil fields and vanished without a trace. Those fields, referred to as “Wyatt’s Torch,” continued to burn for the rest of the period in the narrative.

James Taggart is the chief villain in the novel. More to the point, he is a type of every small-minded individual who, jealous of the talents or productive capacities of those who can do things better than they, seeks to demean or even destroy such persons. They pretend to be serving the greatest good for the greatest number, but in fact their motives are far more dire. They pretend to be altruists; in fact they are spiteful.

Ayn Rand considered altruism and spite to be two sides of the same evil coin, and almost considered them a distinction without a difference. Almost, but not quite—the man known as “Non-Absolute” is an altruist who comes to realize that the policies he is supporting do not support the public good, and rebels against them, at the cost of his own life.

Jim is definitely worse than all the other villains, with the possible exception of Floyd Ferris. All the other “looters” do what they do in the pursuit of short-term gain. Ivy Starnes, daughter of Jed Starnes of theTwentieth Century Motor Company, did what she did in the pursuit of control. But Jim Taggart does what he does in order to destroy. He carefully hides this motive even from himself, until he can no longer hide it, and at that moment, his mind collapses completely.

http://www.conservapedia.com/James_Taggart

There is of course much more to the story of James Taggart, and for most people who read the book, they will only understand him. Other characters that they might understand would be the government lobbyists, the various second-handers within the story and the general people in the street wondering when something might happen for some miraculous reason.   Because they don’t understand the motor of the world—the primary driver of all things—they are left praying to deities the way primitives idolized the sun for making crops grow.  America—as told by Atlas Shrugged—was designed from the outset to find the best and brightest that was produced within the philosophy of freedom the United States offered and let them emerge unhindered to advance civilization.  Such people are rarer than gold and to find them; we must as a culture mine for them deep and with great patience only occasionally discovering a cherished gold nugget justifying all our hard work.  Most people digging for such gold will fail-they’ll die trying.  But that’s worth it because when such treasures are found—they lift everyone up.

That is easy for me to say, because I am certainly one of them.  I love Atlas Shrugged because Ayn Rand was essentially writing the story for the few people like me—and I appreciate it.  Even though the novel is quite popular and people try to relate—most of them end up being like Jim’s wife in the novel, Cherryl Taggart.  I meet a lot of “Cherryl Taggart’s at places like the symphony, the downtown theaters, and at high-end shopping centers and they are often miserable.  They always strived for greatness but were taught that it came from people like Jim Taggart-the well-connected, the popular ones who were liked by the most people.  Only once it’s too late do they realize they were scammed and they often end their lives extremely resentful.  When Cherryl realized in Atlas Shrugged that Jim wasn’t what she thought he was, she killed herself.  A lot of women are slowly killing themselves through dietary abuse, intellectual torture, and acting as social parasites toward others for the sheer spite of it.

My feelings about the many Jim Taggarts that I know are that I treat them like insects stuck in my pool during the summer months.  If I see them kicking around and alive, I usually take the time to scoop them out to let them live one more day.  I consider them lucky to be near me at that particular point in their lives, so I help them.  I live my life as a motor of the world.  I carry everyone around me with a boundless energy that comes with the type of person that I am.  So I don’t mind if the Jim Taggarts come along for a boost in their life.  They never appreciate it, and they always take credit for being the masters of industry—but I know that without me they can go nowhere and if I can bring them a moment of happiness—just a little gold nugget to make the Cherryl’s in their life not want to jump off a bridge—or their kids desiring to grow up and be idiots—then I try and try again.  I know they don’t appreciate it, but I never lose hope that they might.  That is the difference between being an engine of the world and a parasite—which most people relegate themselves to.

When I watch the questions asked of Donald Trump—how will you do this or that, Mr. Trump—I think of Jim Taggart. They don’t have a mind to understand what it means to be a motor of the world.  I was glad for that particular breakfast because it was a culture that did understand—and they also understood that they were always on the lookout for such an engine.  They innately knew that American culture had a tendency to produce such people so the odds of discovering the 1% of the 1% were greater with every American who sat down at their tables with a finely pressed suit and a little swagger to their walk.  They worked to impress such people with the same effort I’ve seen people drive across a state border for a billion dollar lottery ticket, or play the odds at a gambling table—hoping to hit it big even though the odds were desperately against them.  Other places in the world outside of America hope with all hope to run into an American who is one of Ayn Rand’s heroes—a product of Adam Smith’s capitalism.  Nobody can understand Donald Trump but other Atlas Shrugged protagonists.  Trump can’t begin to explain his positions than Dagny could explain to her brother Jim why she was so much better than he was.

Yet, it was the people like Jim Taggart who made up the modern institutions, such as the brand of crony capitalism now known in American, or the socialism of Europe, and the communism of the East.  The feared organizations such as the “vile bankers,” the Masons, the Illuminati, the whoever—are made up entirely of people like Jim Taggart.  All of Washington D.C. is made up of Jim Taggarts and his wife Cherryl.  Yet capitalism was never intended to make those people feel good about themselves.  It was meant to sift through them to find the rarest of the rare—the gold nuggets that are so often buried deep within the organized elements of society.

I know it’s hard for all those Jim Taggarts out there to accept that they are not equal to the engines of the world.  The people of the world are not equal.  Some people are better and more important than others, just as gold has more value than the dirt that often surrounds it.  And it’s for that reason that I help the Jim Taggarts that I know. I let them ride my coattails because I know without me; they will likely die miserable deaths prerequisite with a parade of personal failures.  And I hate to see that in anybody if it’s avoidable.  All I ask is that they respect what I offer. If they don’t, then like insects in my pool, they can drown if they are stupid enough to fly back into the deep water after I have fished them to safety.  It’s not my obligation to waste my time-saving them from themselves.  But if I happen to be in the right place at the right time, they should consider themselves lucky.  The best thing they can do is to shut their mouths, and enjoy the ride because the engine does all the work anyway.  And when it comes to Donald Trump, putting such an engine in the White House has no downside.  It’s never been done before and that is something that the Jim Taggarts of the world do not understand.

Atlas Shrugged is a work of genius, and that becomes more evident outside of the United States.  All nations of the world should study it intently and consider its message when constructing their societies.  This Karl Marx obsession with equality needs to be abandoned in favor of Ayn Rand’s quest to discover the exceptional.  Mankind needs to step off the Vico cycle for the first time in history—and to advance.  For that to happen the Jim Taggarts of the world need to get out-of-the-way and let the engines do their work.  They can go along for the ride, but they can’t take the credit with assumptions.  They may be able to provide fuel for those engines which they should do out of respect. But otherwise they bring nothing to the table.  And they should consider themselves lucky to be in the right place at the right time.  Atlas Shrugged is all about potential, and the world could use a lot more of it.

It’s RINO Hunting Season in Ohio: Vote out Patti Alderson and pick Ann Becker in her place on March 15th

If you ever wondered why nothing much changes in politics over the years it’s because the same type of people run State Central Committee.  The State Central Committee is the governing body of the Ohio Republican Party.  There are two representatives from each district embodying the 33 senate districts in Ohio who manage all the party affairs including day-to-day operations, fundraising, and deciding on which candidates to support and provide resources to.  They are the reason that certain people once elected are almost impossible to remove and are instrumental in maintaining a mundane status quo.  Currently in the Butler County region, which is one of the most conservative areas in America, Patti Alderson is the representative most responsible for preserving status quo politics—like supporting John Kasich—who might as well be a democrat, and John Boehner.  Patti has held the position since 2012 and has for years been a large political insider donating vast sums of money to political candidates.  Around Butler County, if someone wanted to run for a Republican office, they had to get to know ol’ Patti.

Patti and I don’t like each other.  It goes way back to the Lakota levy situation where I called her massive swarms of pro tax neurotic, guilt plagued area mothers latte sipping prostitutes.  Actually, it goes back further than that.  Her husband, who made all the money that Patti now enjoys as one of the wealthiest people in Southern Ohio was a supporter of mine in the No Lakota Levy effort to keep down the taxes in one of Ohio’s largest school districts in one of the most affluent areas.  Patti, being completely disconnected from the realities of how taxes might influence the bottom line of her husband’s business, was a massive tax and spend liberal type siding with the progressives advancing the incursions against property values.  To be honest I felt really sorry for her husband who I measured as a good man caught in a classic struggle with a wife who was out of touch with what her spouse did to make all the vast wealth she enjoyed.  He never complained to me about it, but I could tell from a distance what the situation was, and I felt sorry for him.  A powerful man like he was shouldn’t have to provide me with cloak and dagger financial support while publicly supporting a wife who was pretending to be a Republican while at the same time advancing all the traits of a ranting progressive.  It was clear to me even before Patti was elected to the State Central Committee that the kind of watered down politicians we were getting into elected office were because of people like Patti who were liberals in how they lived and only played the part of Republicans because regionally, it’s a conservative area and is required for anybody who wants to hold a prominent position socially. (COUGH, DON DIXEN.  CLICK TO REVIEW.)  

It came to a head between her and me when her tax increase supporters started taking personal shots because they were getting frustrated that they couldn’t win an election against my group, No Lakota Levy.  Several members who worked with me on that tax resistance group also worked with Patti at the Community Foundation, which is a charity group and she was using that to try to undermine my group internally.  So we proposed an offer to donate money to kids suffering from the political stalemate and pay for their high sports fees.  The Community Foundation at first was receptive, but then because the goal of Lakota schools in having the sports fees in the first place was an extortion tactic, Patti withdrew her support basically using me as her reasoning declaring that I was too controversial.  That forced me and my partners to create our own Foundation, which we did.  I put together a press release and we donated $10,000 to poor kids who couldn’t pay the sports fees at Lakota.  I gave the Enquirer an exclusive, did the usual WLW interviews and did press for Channel 5, 9 and 12.  Shortly after that Patti came after me directly joining with the Lakota school board to discredit me any way she could.  They went for my jugular.  If I had been a normal person, I might have been totally destroyed—and that’s the way Patti Alderson rolls, and how Republicans in Butler County have held on to their seats of power.  She’s not alone, but she’s a major player—because of the wealth her family enjoys now.  I said what I said about her supporters because it was obvious she was working with Lakota to use children to drive up tax increases and it personally made me sick—because she called herself a Republican.  Most of the men went along with the tax hungry wives because they wanted peace in their households so I needed to illustrate the situation the way I am uniquely positioned to do.  CLICK HERE TO REVIEW.

Well times change and now my friend Ann Becker and a partner of her acquaintance Walter Simms are running against Patti to unseat her. I know it’s hard for Ann because she and Patti were always pretty good friends but the big difference is that Ann cannot pretend to be a Republican—she just is to the core of her personality.   Being a Republican to Ann actually means something—it’s not a social-climbing device intended to get into the latest charity parties hosted by the Chamber.  To Ann, being a Republican is serious business and it has been her mission since I’ve known her to return our government mechanisms to a constitutional republic, not a society of bootlickers trying to appease people like Patti who want to be everything to everybody.  So guess who I’m supporting for State Central Committee?

Dear reader, if you want to make me happy—if you’d like to pay me back for all the years you’ve enjoyed reading these words and all the antics on radio broadcasts, and calling it like it is—then show up to vote to destroy Patti Alderson politically.  Can you do that little thing for me?  Vote for Ann and be sure to utterly destroy Patti Alderson.  Patti is not a Republican.  She was one of the first people we identified as a RINO way back leading up to 2012.  The more I learned about her the more obvious it was.  If she wasn’t she wouldn’t have worked so hard to personally destroy me just for standing in the way of higher taxes she desired.  What she did I will never forget or forgive and I’m absolutely sure I’m not the only one.  I don’t wish her and her husband harm physically, but Patti shouldn’t be involved in politics unless she wants to host a fund-raiser.  She should not have her hands on the daily operations of the Republican Party in any legislative fashion.  She is a Kasich supporter; it is because of people like her that we have Jeb Bush still thinking he should run for president.  She helped keep Boehner in power longer than he should have been and helped swipe away challengers to his seat with mechanisms of similar manipulative aggression as she showed to me—just for being in the way of what she wanted.

I know Ann inside and out—I know her very heart and I am certain that she can be trusted with such an important seat of power.  Honestly we need 66 Ann Becker types on the State Central Committee but I can handle two for now, Ann herself and her partner in this endeavor Walter Simms.  I met Walter’s wife just the other day and I could see on her face that Walter had her permission to be a real fighter for the sanctity of the Republican Party.  When I saw her face I actually thought of Patti’s husband and how he projected the opposite sentiment.  For his sake, I wish Patti hadn’t made the decision to become public property by running for office—because a lot of this is embarrassing for his family.  For his sake I wish they could just stay shadow donors—because then stories like this could just stay in the kitchens and living rooms of Butler County.  But she decided to be a public person, so that puts the issue out there for debate, and her character and motivations certainly deserve scrutiny, because she sells herself as one thing yet advances an entirely different philosophy.  Regarding the old friendship between Patti and Ann—I’m sure it hurts to consider but it’s good strategically to keep you enemies close so you might influence their behavior.  Fortunately for all of us, Ann was never seduced into the manipulative arms of the latté sippers which made up Patti’s core group of levy supporters and progressive social insurgents.

Another name who was on No Lakota Levy with me was Todd Hall, who now runs the Republican Party.  I liked Todd, but we haven’t spoken much since that time because when Patti put down the gauntlet on the men in the Republican Party at the time they had to pick sides.  His attitude toward me was like the kid who was playing with the neighborhood rebel and his parents were putting a stop to it.  I understood of course.  It takes courage to stay by the side of people who are going against the grain.  Unfortunately for the Republican Party, the same kind of thing happens every day, whether the target is David Kern of Liberty Township, or J.D. Winteregg who was challenging John Boehner’s seat a few years ago.  Or, Ann Becker herself being booted out of a John Kasich Rally for protesting Common Core.  Todd was just doing what his bosses told him too—even though he was supposed to be running the party.  The sad thing about that is Patti let that happen to her old friend in such an embarrassing way.  If that’s how she treats friends and in my case, neighbors who her husband supported—just think of how she’ll treat people she doesn’t care about.

Do the Republican Party a favor—boot her ass out on March 15th.  Early voting begins on February 17th.  I’ll likely be in line to cast my vote in favor of Ann first.  She’s a great person and someone who is tested under fire.  She is unflappable.  She cannot be corrupted.  She may be a bit too idealistic at times, but that only helps her in this kind of fight.  Patti is entrenched and it won’t be easy to get rid of her. So it will take everything you’ve got dear reader to dispose of her politically.  But this is your chance to do so.  Don’t blow it!  Vote for Ann Becker and Walter Simms for District 4 State Central Committee and take a very important step toward fixing the Republican Party for the next generation.  It’s RINO hunting season and Patti is the mama bear.  With her out of power, the cubs will be easy—metaphorically speaking of course.

Ted Cruz and Kermit the Frog: Republicans have had enough trouble–they don’t need a president that sounds like a puppet and a frog

I know what it is.  I like Ted Cruz and his policies but his public speaking has been bothering me. Listen to these two clips. 

 

I just don’t think anybody will take him serious.  He sounds too much like Kermit the Frog.

Cam “Millennial” Newton: The destruction of sports and next generation reliability

If there was any doubt about what I said about Millennials, CLICK HERE TO REVIEW, Cam Newton after the Super Bowl confirmed it for all time.  Watch his press conference below, the dynamic Superman character who sold himself all this years as an invincible indomitable spirit sat slouched and pitiful near tears and pouting about his embarrassing loss to the Denver Broncos.  The kid learned a hard lesson at Super Bowl 50—something he should have learned by his parents many years earlier.  But as a coddled Millennial, he used his natural ability, and his race to advance through the ranks of life and he arrived as the MVP at the Super Bowl haughty and having fun.  He should have known that the Denver players would want to knock his head off, yet he thought he was going to cruise to a win.  And instead of taking it like a man, stoically, he pouted like a child who had just been told by him mom that he couldn’t have candy at the grocery store check-out line.

I’ll admit that I was rooting for the Broncos to win, but to my family I had been talking Cam Newton up as one of the best players in the NFL.  I watched many of the Carolina games this year and thought they were the best team in football.  Honestly, I wanted to see Cam Newton do well in the Super Bowl.  Really, Carolina hadn’t been tested much until they played in the Super Bowl and the Denver D decided to blitz the hell out of Newton to throw him off.  That’s part of the game and the young Carolina quarterback clearly wasn’t prepared.  He showed up at the game planning to dominate and cruise to a victory—because everyone seemed to be telling him that he was the greatest gift to mankind.  And he obviously believed it.  Cam didn’t account for the fact that everyone on the Denver defense wanted to personally mount the MVP’s head to their headboards.  For Newton, it was easy for him to appear dominate when his team was winning, but he didn’t have the same swagger when they were losing and that’s the heart of the problem.

When he lost he didn’t stand up and take the licks.  Everyone understands how hard it must be for him to lose such an important game, but what he did was reprehensible.  Rather than take responsibility for the loss, like he should have—because he had lost the will to fight by the fourth quarter, he blamed others.  That much was evident when he lost the last fumble of the game, when he didn’t dive into the pile to retrieve it.  Newton had spent the entire season playing with the mind of every player that opposed him with audacity and magnificent aggression.  But he couldn’t show the same confidence when it came to working from behind.  The Denver Broncos noticed that and turned Cam’s tactics against him—thoroughly embarrassing the MVP of 2015.

If you are going to wear the Superman symbol, you better be super even in the worse possible circumstances, otherwise people who want to knock you off your pedestal will crush you at the first opportunity.  I can sympathize with how Cam feels.  I’ve felt that kind of disappointment for other things.  On a different stage, but very similar circumstances—Donald Trump went though it over the results of the Iowa election.  Even though many might say he acted poorly after that defeat, his first reaction was to be gracious and maintain a mountain of security.  Supporters of such people want to see confidence in the people they admire.  Cam didn’t give his supporters confidence that he’d be back and better than ever.  He just pouted because things didn’t work out in his mind the way he wanted and somewhere in his past someone taught him that sobbing like a child wasn’t disgraceful—it was acceptable.  He didn’t look like a 6’ 5” Superman; he looked like an eight year old child who had been told no by his mother.  Granted, at only 26 years old, that wasn’t that long ago.  In many ways, Cam Newton is still a child—he is compared to me.  I remember being his age and having the screws of life turned down on me so hard that it was hard to lift my hand to put food in my mouth, the pressure was so great.  I understand.  But I never cried about it.  I put on my inner Superman and took on the world, and eventually won time and time again.

Cam the Millennial should have known that what makes you a legend is not just winning.  Payton Manning is a legend, and he has not always won.  It’s about getting back on the horse and fighting harder, and harder, and harder until you wear out and dominate everyone against you.  Honestly just sitting at home I was thinking like Wade Phillips.  My thoughts were that if the Broncos could knock Cam on his ass that they’d gain leverage on the young kid and take him out of his game.  The dabbing that Cam does after a touchdown has become the leading news story of the 2015 NFL year.  Phillips obviously used that motivation to drive his players to a froth of aggression.  Watching Phillips body language during the game it was obviously he said something.  He confirmed it after the victory by saying to Newton on Twitter:

“A little too much Dab will undo you!” Phillips tweeted from his @sonofbum Twitter account before the Broncos headed to the airport in San Jose.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/broncos/2016/02/08/wade-phillips-dab-tweet-super-bowl-denver-panthers/80016500/

His defense was tired of the Panthers’ dancing antics and wanted to shut them down.

Broncos coach Gary Kubiak was asked about Phillips’ tweet during his Monday morning news conference. While a reporter read the text of the tweet aloud, linebacker Von Miller nearly fell off the chair he was sitting in just off the stage.

Kubiak said he had not seen Phillips’ tweet but acknowledged it was not out of character for Phillips.

“He gets carried away with that Twitter sometimes,” Kubiak said.

Cam built up that anger against him and when it mounted, he couldn’t deal with it.  Instead of saying something bold, he simply retreated into a petulant child.  It will be really difficult for Cam Newton to return to his former glory now that the scouting report is out on him.  Hundreds of NFL players saw the same thing I did in the young man at his press conference.  Cam surrendered his swagger, which is part of his game, and it will change him for the worst.  I felt bad for the kid, but the blame falls on his parents.  Cam Newton has obviously been a spoiled child given most everything in life because of his natural ability and skin color.  Once he gets older and losses some of that natural ability he’ll have to rely on his mind, and that is obviously something the kid will struggle with.  The wise old Wade Phillips exposed it.  Next year, everyone else will too.

What is kind of scary is that a decade and a half ago, Payton Manning would have never done something so immature.  He’s been disappointed and short with the press, but he never acted like Cam Newton.  I can’t think of anybody who ever has pouted like that who was considered great.  There are personalities who lose it, and get aggressive when they lose from the anger they feel, but they never just sit there and pout like a child.  What we are seeing is a new breed of grown-up, a generation of Millennials who have been told all their lives they are great, and that they are the best—without ever really being tested, or working hard to become great.  Life isn’t about dominating with physical attributes and dabbing to intimidate opponents who are not so gifted.  It is about still being great even when you don’t feel like it.  Because sometimes that’s the hardest thing to do, and the most important ingredient to greatness that there is.  Cam Newton obviously doesn’t have it.

Beyond the Shadows on the Cave Wall: The answer to everything–come with me

 

I have mixed feelings about Oliver Stone.  I don’t think he’s a typical Hollywood leftist.  I think he’s too obsessed with conspiracy theories—but he is a fantastic writer.  He wrote Conan the Barbarian and Scarface which were fabulous movies, so he’s obviously very intelligent.  His use of drugs bothers me a lot, but I actually thought his movie, The Doors, was highly insightful and very good.  I’m not a fan of Jim Morrison, but I understood him after that film which walks a fine line between madness and extreme sanity.  I thought Natural Born Killers was extremely good and I loved JFK.  I think Oliver Stone functions from an unusual place as an artist and I enjoy his work even if I disagree with him on some politics and social policies.  So that makes me very interested in his son Sean who seems like a remarkably intelligent young man who has been given the lofty assumption of knowing all the most powerful people in Hollywood and the media—through his dad—but hasn’t had to carve his way through life-like a normal kid.  He’s taken that elevated platform and went down the rabbit hole—and I can’t say I disagree with much of what he says below.  I don’t base the things I write here on people like Sean Stone.  I walk my own path and come to conclusions based on an existence remarkably free of social contamination—because my thinking is very introverted.  When Sean Stone who has taken his father’s fame and used that platform to uncover some things, and his conclusions are remarkably similar to my own viewpoints—arrived at independently, there is something important to consider.  So listen to these clips where Sean Stone is being interviewed by Alex Jones—and do so with an open mind.  I believe he is far more correct than not—and I am certainly not providing that endorsement loosely.

I have said for a long time that science is being held back deliberately.  CLICK HERE FOR REVIEW.  Just a little investigation will prove that a powerful elite form of shadow government is operating through lobbyists in the United States to adhere our nation to some global scheme.  Is it as sinister as Sean Stone proposes—it’s hard to tell, because everything is so shrouded in secrecy, nobody answers questions directly and most of our politicians are puppets?  But innately we know something is wrong and our mythologies are constructed around our suspicions.  Unfortunately, those mythologies for our human minds become religions and we then limit our perspective to the confines of that branch of interpretation.  We stop asking questions because we fear the answer of stepping beyond the boundaries of our religious parameters.

I have talked extensively about Thorium power and other means of free and unlimited energy that does not involve “dirty energy.”  I am convinced that much of the global push for socialism is to prevent society from reaching these next levels of scientific thought.  We are being held back deliberately from emerging into a Type I civilization because of an old European desire to maintain control of the original ruling families and their bloodlines—which is a ridiculously immature concept at this stage of human development.  Cancer could be cured tomorrow and we could have had flying cars for about a decade now.  The science has always been there, but politics has prevented those natural gifts of thought to emerge properly—as socialism and religion have been used to keep a lid on their emergence.  I am 100% sure of it.  Take way the limits of religion and government philosophy using socialism as a means to control the masses, and the United States would lead the world into a Type I society.

The Kardashev scale is a method of measuring a civilization‘s level of technological advancement, based on the amount of energy a civilization is able to utilize directed towards communication.[1] The scale has three designated categories called Type I, II, and III. A Type I civilization is able to utilize and store energy available from its neighboring star which reaches their planet, Type II is able to harness the energy of the entire star (the most popular hypothetic concept being the Dyson sphere—a device which would encompass the entire star and transfer its energy to the planet), and Type III civilization are in control of energy on the scale of their entire host galaxy.[2] The scale is hypothetical, and regards energy consumption on a cosmic scale. It was first proposed in 1964 by the Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev. Various extensions of the scale have been proposed since, from a wider range of power levels (types 0, IV and V) to the use of metrics other than pure power.

In 1964, Kardashev defined three levels of civilizations, based on the order of magnitude of power available to them:

Type I

“Technological level close to the level presently attained on earth, with energy consumption at ≈4×1019 erg/sec (4 × 1012 watts).”[1] Guillermo A. Lemarchand stated this as “A level near contemporary terrestrial civilization with an energy capability equivalent to the solar insolation on Earth, between 1016 and 1017 watts.”[3]

Type II

“A civilization capable of harnessing the energy radiated by its own star”–for example, the stage of successful construction of a Dyson sphere–“with energy consumption at ≈4×1033 erg/sec.”[1] Lemarchand stated this as “A civilization capable of utilizing and channeling the entire radiation output of its star. The energy utilization would then be comparable to the luminosity of our Sun, about 4×1033 erg/sec (4×1026 watts).”[3]

Type III

“A civilization in possession of energy on the scale of its own galaxy, with energy consumption at ≈4×1044 erg/sec.”[1] Lemarchand stated this as “A civilization with access to the power comparable to the luminosity of the entire Milky Way galaxy, about 4×1044 erg/sec (4×1037 watts).”[3]

Michio Kaku suggested that humans may attain Type I status in 100–200* years, Type II status in a few thousand years, and Type III status in 100,000 to a million years.[4]

Carl Sagan suggested defining intermediate values (not considered in Kardashev’s original scale) by interpolating and extrapolating the values given above for types I (1016 W), II (1026 W) and III (1036 W), which would produce the formulawhere value K is a civilization’s Kardashev rating and P is the power it uses, in watts. Using this extrapolation, a “Type 0” civilization, not defined by Kardashev, would control about 1 MW of power, and humanity’s civilization type as of 1973 was about 0.7 (apparently using 10 terawatt (TW) as the value for 1970s humanity).[5]

In 2012, total world energy consumption was 553 exajoules (7020553000000000000♠553×1018 J=153,611 TWh),[6] equivalent to an average power consumption of 17.54 TW (or 0.724 on Sagan’s Kardashev scale).

In 2015, a study of galactic mid-infrared emissions came to the conclusion that “Kardashev Type-III civilizations are either very rare or do not exist in the local Universe”.[7] On October 14, 2015, the realization of a strange pattern of light surrounding star KIC 8462852 has raised speculation that a Dyson Sphere (Type II civilization) may have been discovered.[8][9][10][11][12]

Type I civilization methods

  • Large-scale application of fusion power. According to mass-energy equivalence, Type I implies the conversion of about 2 kg of matter to energy per second. An equivalent energy release could theoretically be achieved by fusing approximately 280 kg of hydrogen into helium per second,[13] a rate roughly equivalent to 8.9×109 kg/year. A cubic km of water contains about 1011 kg of hydrogen, and the Earth’s oceans contain about 1.3×109 cubic km of water, meaning that humans on Earth could sustain this rate of consumption over geological time-scales, in terms of available hydrogen.
  • Antimatter in large quantities would have a mechanism to produce power on a scale several magnitudes above our current level of technology. In antimatter-matter collisions, the entire rest mass of the particles is converted to radiant energy. Their energy density (energy released per mass) is about four orders of magnitude greater than that from using nuclear fission, and about two orders of magnitude greater than the best possible yield from fusion.[14] The reaction of 1 kg of anti-matter with 1 kg of matter would produce 1.8×1017 J (180 petajoules) of energy.[15] Although antimatter is sometimes proposed as a source of energy, this does not appear feasible. Artificially producing antimatter – according to current understanding of the laws of physics – involves first converting energy into mass, so no net gain results. Artificially created antimatter is only usable as a medium of energy storage, not as an energy source, unless future technological developments (contrary to the conservation of the baryon number, such as a CP violation in favour of antimatter) allow the conversion of ordinary matter into anti-matter. Theoretically, humans may in the future have the capability to cultivate and harvest a number of naturally occurring sources of antimatter.[16][17][18]
  • Renewable energy through converting sunlight into electricity — either by using solar cells and concentrating solar power or indirectly through wind and hydroelectric power. There is no known way for human civilization to use the equivalent of the Earth’s total absorbed solar energy without completely coating the surface with human-made structures, which is not feasible with current technology. However, if a civilization constructed very large space-based solar power satellites, Type I power levels might become achievable–these could convert sunlight to microwave power and beam that to collectors on Earth.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale

Now, a lot of people don’t think currently in the proper way to comprehend a Type I civilization.  They figure that they get 70 to 80 trips around the sun on planet earth, and then they die to reside in some heaven of their chosen religion.  But that is a choice relative only to the experience of life on earth and the mythologies of our evolution.  There is no rational reason as a human being to die or to be limited to the kinds of scientific limits we currently experience.  If the miracles of capitalism were to be unleashed with people like Donald Trump who would not allow special interests and old national desires for ancient bloodlines to guide their decision-making, which is what is happening right now, our global society could move toward a Type I civilization as opposed to following the Vico cycle back toward a collective swarm of nomads running from anarchy.

We are truly on a unique precipice in history.  A lot of what Sean Stone is talking about is potential that is available right now. The reason those things are not available to us are for the same reasons that established politicians are still reluctant to accept that Donald Trump or Ted Cruz are leading the Republican field for President of the United States—because the established order wants to keep things the way that they are now—which benefits them.  Most of them are like Plato’s cave, also shown above and told by Alex Jones—they believe in certain things, whether it’s their version of an afterlife, or that some superior species of aliens runs the universe and that they must surrender to their whims, or perhaps they believe that their bloodline is their version of eternity and that the way to stay in power is to preserve the organized world around the same power structures that existed when their grandparents were kings.  But in reality all those limits are stupid.  They are archaic.  I wrote about the Plato metaphor a long time before Alex Jones used that allegory described above—but that’s OK, people come to things in their own way.  Most of our society has been trained to look at the shadows on the wall.  They have no idea what’s really behind them, or even more so, what’s outside the cave.

I’ll tell you dear reader what’s outside the cave—I’ve been there for a long time.  It is obvious that there was advanced civilization trading around the world between 15,000 to 8,000 years ago.  There was a giant species of intelligent beings that had an entire kingdom in North America, and during this reign, Chinese and many others settled and mixed with them.  During their Vico cycle, they ended up with what we know as the “Native Americans” of today.  The climax of this culture was the Mesopotamian era—which shared an even older culmination with the Indus Valley.  Likely however is that every ten to twenty thousand years prior for as far back as perhaps the dinosaurs, humans drove forward and fell back following the Vico cycle rising and falling completely  as a society every 7000 years or so.  (CLICK HERE TO REVIEW THE VICO CYCLE.  It’s important.)  Societies as complex as the one we have today may have easily have come to the exact same spot we find ourselves at right now only to fall back into nomadic tribes of sacrificial idiots barely scraping together enough resources to build a fire.

Likely many hundreds of thousands of years before Mesopotamia there was advanced civilization on Mars and other planets.  Just recently it was discovered that there is another planet in our solar system that has such a large elliptical orbit that it rotates around the sun every 15,000 years. There is a lot that we are just discovering about our solar system that obviously ancient cultures knew already.  So the evidence is quite compelling and legitimate science has been wrestling with these issues for years.  Institutions hungry for government grant money reports only what they can to get that money, and the people who control that money are the same who control the politics, and the lobbyists, and the religions.   They control all these things to protect their own version of reality which suits their family lineage and their importance in the grand scheme of things because like all who have come before them, they are following the Vico cycle toward human destruction—yielding to anarchy before rising again as a theocracy—then an aristocracy, then a democracy—only to fall time and time again.  Plato knew it so many years ago, the wisdom was ancient in his day, mankind continues to look at the shadows on the cave wall—willingly, because thinking is too hard, and too scary.

Now here we are.  What Sean Stone is saying is actually quite true regarding the restricted science and the reasons for it.  Everywhere I look I see people ready to go back to what they know—back to the beginning of civilization because they don’t have the courage to step into a Type I.  They are like alcoholics who cannot stay off the bottle or fat people who know they have to lose weight but cannot stop eating comfort food whenever they are sad about something.  Mankind is addicted to the Vico cycle and that is exactly what socialists are advocating.  The good Illuminati that Stone was referring to was a point in the history of the world where thinkers like Adam Smith, Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin questioned the reality of the day and tossed it out for the world to consider—which it has struggled with for a few hundred years.  Now there are a few people, like Sean Stone, myself, and a few others who have seen what’s outside the cave and are holding flashlights for those staring at the shadows to turn their heads and follow the light out of the cave—so they can finally see reality.  But that takes courage, and for most of them—that is too great of a task to master.  Will it be a Type I society, or will it be the Vico cycle.  Socialists have already picked anarchy and we all know what follows that.

Sheriff Jones and the Metrosexuals of Butler County: Dancing the night away during the Superbowl

This is really embarrassing.  The next thing we will likely learn about Sheriff Jones, my neighbor and local sheriff, who sells himself like a modern John Wayne, is that he’s getting pedicures and facials at a local Wal-Mart nail salon.  I really didn’t want to believe this when I first saw it.  I was hoping that it was some kind of Hollywood special effect.  But no, it’s true—it’s really him and a reasonable number of public employees who are wearing the uniform of the Butler County police.  Using the Super Bowl as an excuse to send what they thought was a “hip” public message, Sheriff Jones and his rag-tag team of highly paid ass kissers put out a video dancing to show how metrosexual they were which I thought was astoundingly childish.  It’s the kind of thing you’d see from a bunch of stupid kids, not a sophisticated sheriff’s department that is supposed to command the respect of the world because of his national platform.  Of course here’s how the local media covered the story.  Women naturally think it’s cute, men aren’t sure—it is awkward.

Let me give a little context, tough guys don’t dance.  They don’t sit around crying over things, they don’t wallow in emotion, and they don’t dance.  Young men do sometimes when they are looking for a female to mate with, but men—real men secure in their testosterone driven utterances—don’t dance.  It’s not cute.  It’s not hip.  It doesn’t earn “cool” points with the younger generation.  All it does is compromise authority.  It makes no sense.

Of course modern women who embrace feminism love it when men dance, because it shows them that their male counterparts are willing to be more open-minded and expressive with their bodies.  People who dance show that they are willing to compromise their individual integrity for collective rituals of expression—and women tend to be naturally included toward more social acceptance than men.  Women seem quite at home dancing in a club or at a wedding touching each other in expressive ways as men tend to stand along the wall with their hands in their pockets.  Men would rather be shooting guns or playing cards—doing something mildly competitive that they can beat another man at—just for fun.  They don’t typically enjoy shaking their bodies in suggestive ways to evoke the approval of collective consciousness.

When Donald Trump danced on Saturday Night Live he did it with a strategy to appeal more to women who currently find him “too scary.”  But Donald Trump isn’t a sheriff—he’s a businessman.  He did lose points with me on that SNL skit—because I would never do something like that under any kind of pressure.    Dancing for men is off-limits.  It’s not something any man should ever do.  It’s stupid.  Now slow dancing with a woman may be acceptable so long as the man doesn’t have to rock their hips in some sexually provocative fashion.  Even then, it’s not something I would do.  I’ve danced with my wife at our wedding, 25 years ago, one slow dance.  I danced with a family member at my brother’s wedding a few decades ago-the same-because I was a member of the wedding party.  And that’s it.  At both of my daughter’s weddings, we skipped the daddy/daughter dance.  I’m sure they’d like it sometimes if I was more physically expressive–but that’s just not appropriate for a man to exhibit.  Prior to meeting my wife, I went to a few dance clubs to meet girls, and I was good at it.  I was even a fashion model for a period of time and was hired to dance around a swarm of really attractive women on stage to David Lee Roth’s “Just a Gigolo.”  Yet the moment I met my wife, I dropped that life in less than a second, because I didn’t like it.  To me, the only reason a man would dance would be to land a female into his bed.  That is absolutely the only reason.  Once you are married, or even have a steady mate, men should never dance in public or private.

Dancing is a form of collectivism and it’s a disgusting enterprise.  Surrendering the mind to the beat of the music is not a smart thing to do.  Letting the music take control of your mind and body is to surrender your individual sovereignty.  Dancing is not a thinking endeavor.  When a room full of people surrender thought to the beat of the music it is not a beautiful thing.  It’s a thing of disgust.  It’s tribal—and in an American capitalist society where thought should be king, dancing is a treacherous social value that leads its participants toward collectivism instead of individual merit.

I’ve heard the saying, real men are not afraid to express themselves.  Those are the same idiots who say that men should not be afraid to wear pink, and that it’s OK to cry in public—or private.  Let me tell you something dear reader.  Real men don’t wear pink, they don’t cry—ever, and they certainly don’t dance.  Never.  Metrosexuals dance, gay guys dance, and men who have had their testosterone evaporate from their bodies dance to show that they aren’t too old to be like the cool young people at weddings.  But real men don’t dance.  Dancing is not an activity of thinking.  It is an act of collectivism, of yielding to whoever the artist is.  A dance floor is a socialist enterprise where sweaty bodies mingle in collective effort toward the goal of assimilation.  It’s not cute or funny.

Sometimes people think I’m too hard on public employees such as the local police. Sheriff Jones and his staff obviously didn’t have anything else to do with their time but to coordinate that video—which obviously took some time.  I’m sure he’ll say that the whole thing was done on a volunteer basis and everyone was off-duty, at least I’d hope he’d lie to me about that.  Because if any of those people were on duty at the time, we have some big problems and the staffing levels need to be adjusted—because we are paying too much for our police department.

There is another element to dancing that involves race.  People of color, particularly from the African continent do have a natural inclination to dance.  This is not good.  I am not impressed with Cam Newton’s “dance moves” on the football field.  A quick look economically at Africa indicates that what I have said about dancing is one hundred percent correct.  Every country in Africa is suffering under some form of socialism—or collective based social interaction.   On their own, the people of Africa are not inventing things, building businesses, or advancing their lives forward away from the dances they use to invoke spiritual aid and mystical persuasion.  People from those cultures may dance well—but that is not a skill that advances mankind toward individualism and invention—because invention does not come from collective effort, only individual aptitude.  So pandering toward people of race as a “stiff” whitey only makes people like Sheriff Jones look like an idiot—not a man of compromise in showing that he’s not too good to “bust some moves” so to appeal toward members of our community who still think men dancing is cool.

Men, it’s not OK to dance.  Women may want you to, and race groups might put peer pressure on you to do so—but it’s not acceptable.  Sheriff Jones made a serious mistake toward the institution of manhood in doing what he did.  He may be socially confused, or his testosterone levels may be dropping to the point where he’s more estrogen these days than testosterone, but either way, it was very embarrassing.  If I were a goon, a punk or a creep looking to sell drugs in Butler County, or to traffic stolen young girls—or even to loot the wealth of homes in the area—Sheriff Jones and his Super Bowl antics would invite me toward indiscretion instead of providing a deterrent.  Having a bounty on your head from Mexican drug lords is a manly thing to have.  But dancing like a metrosexual from the Butler County Jail—that is just not acceptable.

Failure is Not an Option: The power of positive thinking

 If you have ever traveled around the world some things become very evident.  America is clearly a superior nation, because our individual freedoms have taken the shackles off our product output, and driven a yearning to expand our marketplace.  However, there is a downside, without a proper philosophy normally sanctioned by some functioning religion; those same benefits can become a terrible vice.  For instance a wealthy and successful man can have a complete meltdown if his neighbor has the latest Mercedes and he doesn’t, or his wife may become bitter as she ages because our tendency toward shiny and new often causes us to reject old and traditional.  This neurosis presents itself in American society with a voracity leaving the general mental health of our nation at a detrimental level of dysfunction.  I’m sad to say that most people I know are like this in American society.

I am not however.  I am an eternal optimist that doesn’t believe in surrender or allowing the mind to become depressed—about anything.  I typically carry everyone on my back toward a goal, and for many years I have been fine with that type of approach. The net result is that second-handers ride in my wake and I’m fine with that until they get the funny idea that they are equal to me, and then try to step out in front and take charge.  That is where I have to draw the line.  Largely, my support of Donald Trump is due to this trait, he like me is a bottomless pit of optimism, and I think it’s more important to have that type of character in the White House than any other aspect of an election.  The world unfortunately is controlled by depressed characters—these second-handers, and it really does need to stop.  They need to learn their place, and stay in the wake of their clear superiors.  Second-handers are not equal to out-front personalities especially those with great optimism.  Optimism is one of the greatest traits a nation, a company or a household can possess.

I recently traveled to and from Japan and many of my intellectual thoughts about optimism was confirmed.  They have a national approach that very much embodies a can do optimism that is a direct off-shoot of their Shinto Buddhism as a religion.  It shows up in their work, their businesses, and their entertainment— in every aspect of their culture.  It is amazing how much the Japanese people do given so little resources on the island that they reside on.  A lot of that comes from their remarkably positive attitudes.  They are very productive and happy to be.  They don’t throw away their elderly and most levels of their society have a playfulness about them that joyfully participates in the sorrows of the world—which is clearly a Buddhist attribute.  I had read stacks of books on Japanese culture and by default over many years have adopted my own brand of Shinto Buddhism that does not export the responsibility to some third-party spirit residing outside of our four-dimensional space.  There is a science to positive thinking that works so long as that is the objective, and that type of optimism is the missing ingredient that America needs most in a capitalist society.

Most people think I’m insane when I insist on certain strategies in business, but as many have witnessed who have hung around to gather up the results, I always know what I’m doing.  People who have been second-handers to me long enough know that I always end up coming out on top, and that in my long history, failure has never taken root.  That doesn’t mean I haven’t felt the tinge of detrimental failure.  It has certainly knocked on my door many times, but I have never yielded to it in any fashion.  I have always been able to find the silver lining and turn it to gold eventually—and that is largely due to my overwhelming approach to a positive attitude.  Over time I have become used to having nobody around me share this trait, so I am accustomed to functioning completely alone without any input from others.  For me personally, it was nice to deal with the Japanese people in general because when it comes to living an honorable existence with a positive flare, they get it.  For instance, it was late at night in Kobe, Japan—actually, last week.  I didn’t bring any tooth paste with me because honestly, I didn’t want any trouble with the TSA in America—because they are such a bunch of scardy cats about everything—typical unionized slobs who panic over every little raindrop.  I was at my hotel and needed some toothpaste to brush my teeth with.  So I ran down to Chinatown where nobody spoke much English to get some supplies.  I found a little store open that late and I found some tooth paste even though I couldn’t read a word on the box as to what it was.  I could decipher enough to figure out that it was toothpaste.  Taking it to the counter there was just one other person in the entire store and it looked like he was a Chinese-Japanese guy in his middle sixties.  All I was buying was that little tube of toothpaste.  I intended to use the whole tube before traveling back to the United States, so it wasn’t much.  The man was very pleasant and treated the purchase like it was a block of gold that I had placed on the countertop.  When our transaction was completed he gave me a deep bow in thanks and we parted ways.

The cashier in that Chinatown store didn’t have to bow to me; there was nobody else around to judge his behavior.  And he didn’t have to be so thankful of a small tube of toothpaste purchased at 11:30 PM on a weeknight when it looked like there wasn’t going to be much else sold to justify him being open that late.  Yet he had a marvelous attitude because to him that toothpaste was equal to a bottle of liquor or a pack of meat sold for a celebration.  When you live that way day in and day out for your entire life, you tend to outlast whatever troubles your mind, and a productive outcome can eventually be expected.

Donald Trump has that same type of optimism and I think America needs that a lot more than any other aspect of our society—especially after that trip to Japan.  I would say that I think having a positive attitude is more important than legal technicalities, or any other learned behavior passed down from mentor to apprentice within the American framework.  I value that positive attitude above all other traits.  Too often America have limited themselves into reporting what they can’t do which I find disgusting.  I want to hear what someone “can do.”  I don’t want to hear come out of anybody’s mouth what they “cannot do” especially if they haven’t tried before reporting.  Finding excuses not to do something is not appropriate in a free market capitalist society.  The sky should be the limit.

I learned to be the way I am by Clare Chennault, the famous Flying Tiger general during World War II against the Japanese ironically.  CLICK TO REVIEW.  Given old, outdated airplanes, very little in spare parts, and pilots more interested in profit than duty, Chennault with a small band of freedom fighters protected China from the very aggressive and agile Japanese desperate for natural resources to fuel their war. That Flying Tiger story is a great example of American ingenuity and optimism in the face of daunting odds and we have lost that spirit.  It makes me sick. I personally do not accept our current status around the world of adopting European neurosis and rejecting traditional American optimism.  That is not acceptable.

I hope that in Trump’s wake America wakes up to its potential again.  In my personal life, those who know me understand that excuses are not welcome.  You either accomplish a task, or you keep trying until you do—there is no can’t.  That is a word that I reject from the English dictionary—and I don’t use it.  And let me just say this, our nation better get their minds wrapped around the concept of achievement once again.  And for those who have been riding in my wake, you better get a grip.  If you want to play ball, you better know what you are swinging at.  When I’m in charge of things, there is only one way to swing that bat, and you better be aiming for the fences. Because failure is not an option—under any circumstances.
