I'm Not of This World. I'm From a Planet Far Far Away

Many thanks to Grok I live on a different planet. I come down to 'earth' every now and then. To have a look to see if anything has changed. Call me God if you like.  On a recent trip to a planet a really clever man called Mr. Ex invented a fantastic labour saving device called IA . Now, for each hour of labour worked, and dollar of capital employed, 1000 times more wealth could be produced than before Mr. Ex invented IA. All thanks to IA. People started planning to escape this planet called Rent to move to planet Rent+1 there was going to be so much money to be made there. And many believed people would not last long on planet Rent.  But for some reason in spite of all the new wealth very few people could afford a house on planet Rent+1. Especially the young who started to complain angrily about old people, who themselves once had similar complaints. The young were not listening and just wanted free stuff and a target to blame for not getting it. Largely by thr...

Activism is Destroying Our World as Much as are the Corrupt

Who is power better in the hands of?

1) Activists
2) The corrupt

Both claim to be doing the bidding of the People. And both claim to be doing it for the greater good.

Give power to activists and the unintended consequences inevitably escalate out of control and unaccountably. So much so that giving power to the corrupt instead would in the end have been no worse.

PETITION: Government to indicate countries of the UK are open to accede to the US

Sign the Petition A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious con...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle culminating in a financial crisis or a great recession. The 18.6 year period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this. And the politicians of the time used it to signal the day when the economy would be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because this period was about how long the people of nations could abuse the economy before it was too late to recover on its own and much worse effects would have emerged. So it was the wisdom of the leadership of the time. As the aeons went by, the meaning and rationale of this policy became normalised - people an...

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview?

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview? I didn't. But it's when I believe my worldview, is truth, that I become violent without realising it. This is extremely hard for people to accept as possible. The resistance to seeing it and the temptation to escape from looking, is built into its foundations. So, I never said worldviews are bad for us. I did say that when I believe my worldview is a fact, then "I" become root cause of the worlds problems. Thought creates an image of the world. Then thought worships the image that thought created. I am scared of death. So I create an existential worldview about immortality - an image. This can be a God, a political ideology, scientific religiosity, atheism, planet saving activism, anything which my fear of death can hide behind. So if I do 'good' through this image I created, I will ultimately get a 'seat on the right hand side of God' , or whatever the image I created has defined as heaven. Then I w...
