A lot of activists get pleasure out doing things that are symbolic and pointless. I guess living a fantasy is as good as actually making a difference.
Preserving the Earth
If you help produce one or more children .... you are a hypocrite if you talk about caring for the earth and it's environment. Those children are life long consumers that you will exercise no control over.
If you congratulate couples on having a baby .... don't claim you are an environmentalist.
Gun Control
If you want to remove all guns from the civilian population ... and leave them in the hands of the police, the military and GovThugs .... then.... really ... you are not an advocate of preventing gun deaths ..... I don't know what you are You certainly are not an advocate of non-violence.
Liberty, Freedom , ......
If you think terrorists deserve to be tortured ..... that collateral damage is okay .... that the U.S. Military should be distributed world-wide ( bases , air-craft , ships , advisors , etc. )
You are not a supporter of Life , Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness ( LLPOH ) ... Such things do not terminate at a political border, or depend on your citizenship or depend on your ancestors or how much money you have or what your job is or who you know ........ If anyone is left out of the LLPOH equation... then you can count me out of your flag-waving, jingoistic program.
If you love the police , prisons, laws , incarceration , prisons, wars on guns - drugs - sex ...... count me out. I want people to be happy or at least free to take a shot at happiness.

Unintended Consequences
Sometimes intentions are are not enough... one must review the results of an action to see if it turned out as planned.
Black Friday shopping frenzy
Black Friday is intended to be attractive to shoppers. During this period I stay away from stores, have the mute button ready to cancel the commercials , my mouse ready to close abrasive internet offers. Normal shopping becomes impossible. I find this craziness a blot on civility. The word " Inconvience " occurs to me.
This period of craziness seems to lengthen every year and involve more hysterical behaviour every year. I believe it is evidence of how little respect retailers have for consumers. Why are prices ( supposedly ) lower at this time of year ? It sounds like a scam to me.
Thanksgiving stupidity
Thanksgiving is hyped up by so many different groups.... rational thought goes out the window.
#1 Must travel on airplanes.
#2 Must have energy sapping social get-togethers.
#3 Must turn urban centers into crazy quilt ghost-towns.
#4 Must pretend there is some kind of Thanksgiving spirit,
#5 XMAS lites may now be set up.

NFL
NFL ==> Nothing Finer than Loot
The National Football League has long been an interest of my partner and I. Recent events ( September 2014 ) have brought the NFL into even sharper focus than before. Here are the axioms of the NFL and some of it's supporters.
Orwellian Double-Speak
Sponsors of the NFL have complained about it's handling of Domestic Violence.
Pepsico is pretty straightforward
“Domestic violence is completely unacceptable,” the company said in a statement. “We are encouraged to see the NFL is now treating this with the seriousness it deserves.”
The beer maker Anheuser-Busch is more Orwellian....
“We are not yet satisfied with the league’s handling of behaviors that so clearly go against our own company culture and moral code,” the company said. “We have shared our concerns and expectations with the league.”
Notice that Anheuser-Busch has not said it opposes Domestic Violence. Nor does it say how far it is willing to go to support it's mystery moral compass. Perhaps some other statement by Anheuser-Busch will make their axioms more clear.
Only the Radisson hotel chain went as far as doing anything substantial. It announced it was suspending its sponsorship of the Minnesota Vikings football team.
"We support due process but ........ "
This verbiage has been uttered by members of the NFL , members of the media , and just about every other group that has weighed in. The fact is clear that none of them really give a flying parakeet about due process. The general tenor is " We know what we saw in the videos and photos and that is all that is required"
"We want to get this right ........"
Every time this uttered .... not much is said about what getting it right would look like.
Bow to the power of Social Media ( S&M )
The 3,985 kilogram gorilla ( or 16,000 pound elephant ) in the room is Social Media. The "quick to judge", viral nature of Internet opinion is being given immense attention by the NFL. I have heard no one talk about the characteristics of Social Media.... one characteristic is that it is mob rule. It has no known axioms ........ such as respect for the individual to be free to define Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness ( #LLPOH ).
Who bows to S&M ?
The NFL marketing gurus , the people employed in the NFL ( coaches, players, ... ) , the media owners ( look what happened to Stephen A. Smith ), the media pundits ( look what happened to Stephen A. Smith ) , .......
The Bottom Line
Here is a simplified equation for the NFL ( and others ).
[ ( Number of Satisfied Members of the Mob ) times ( $$$ spent by each Mob Member ) ] plus [ ( Number of Complicit Advertisers ) times ( Budget of each Advertiser ) ] is much greater than ( population of earth ) times ( value of LLPOH ) ....

Leaving aside all the other problems of BIG government in the USA ......
Quit using the US Military as a multi-purpose tool. There should be only one ( very limited ) use for the US Military ... stopping foreign invasions. If it has to exist, make it a mean and lean defensive machine. As the USM grows, it becomes more powerful and abusive.
Do not use it to combat Ebola.
Do not use it to hand out candy.
Do not use it to pull people out of floods.
Do not give away used equipment

Proxy Ethics
The definition of PROXY
When person "X" demands that a government agent "Stand-in" for them .... that agent is a proxy for "X".
"Learning" RayRice and AdrianPeterson

Comments I have made

Using a proxy to commit violence is ( IMHO ) not going to make one less culpable than if one commits the violence "hands on". How many agree with this ? If a woman uses a man to beat someone up , she is no less guilty than the man. If a man uses a group to beat someone up , he is no less guilty than the group. #usingAproxy
So I argue, one should consider punishments carefully before lobbying for them. I think Ray Rice was over-punished by the NFL. I think Adrian Peterson was over-punished by the NFL. I think Vladislav Miftakhov was over-punished. I think drug users are over-punished.
You can't take punishment back. Once it has occurred... there it is.
I don't favor punishment .... nor do I desire to be punished. #pppunishment

Voting is violence because every time a human pulls that lever they are legitimizing a proxy to use force to exact tax tribute, regulatory compliance and the maintenance of a police state. The state quite literally goes into your neighbor’s house on a consistent basis and demands a portion of that person’s wealth at the end of a gun; they don’t knock, they stroll in and take what they wish under color of law.

In a 1959 Paris Review interview, Durrell described the ideas behind the Quartet in terms of a convergence of Eastern and Western metaphysics, based on Einstein's overturning of the old view of the material universe, and Freud's doing the same for the concept of stable personalities, yielding a new concept of reality. For all the novels' experiments with chronology and viewpoint, for many readers the appeal lies in the luxurious beauty of the writing. Though the books are often dismissed as pretentious[citation needed], it is difficult to find writing that so prodigiously and intricately recreates atmosphere, place and fleeting emotion with such style. Celebrity admirers of the book include the British politician and ex-leader of the Conservative party, Iain Duncan Smith, who named the Quartet as the one book he would take with him to a desert island.

STORY and chapters
It is hard being the most hated man on earth. Even after 7 years of being despised, hunted, and vilified by the whole world ..... WA still was hurt by minor insults. He hated his anonymity. He understood that he had to have a low profile to survive. Even so, he hated it when he was ignored. He wanted to shout.... "Hey , this is Tom Simon and I am important ..... I have big ideas .... I am smarter than any of you guys". But he knew that would cause problems and he was not even sure his real name was Tom Simon. He was pretty sure... 97% sure .... But he had not used his real name for 7 years and his memory of events before that 7 years were fading. He was used to using whatever name his protectors had currently given him. He just read his latest identity off the license and credit cards he carried. His handlers always made sure his new name was one he could pronounce. ! Zeus ! ! Shriek ! Sometimes he hated those guys and sometimes he absolutely hated those guys and sometimes he just didn't care. He really never felt fondly toward them..... they had hurt his pride in a way that would never heal. It really annoyed him that his credit card never ran low , his ID was never questioned..... He felt he was in a large prison box... a box the size of the whole world. Speaking of which... he wished *they* would let him travel off-planet. For some reason, that was verboten. Maybe *they* did not have as much power off the earth. As far as he could tell * they* did.
Some of the fun ... some of the spice of life had left when he discovered that he was never in danger. No matter how recklessly he conducted himself , he never got in trouble. If he hurled an unforgiveable insult at some big hulk... he was never punched out. If he smashed a bar window by hurling his beer mug ..... no police ever showed up. And *they* keep ordinary people off his back. Come to think of it... he was ordinary too. That is one of the things he hated about *them*. In that respect he was in agreement with 99.99993571 % of humanity. ( That was ~45,000 divided by 7 billion ) It was a rough approximation of how many of *them* there were versus the great ( and not so great ) unwashed masses.
At this point ... I want to interrupt... Now I am the POV in this story. I am one of the PeeTees [ PTs ] currently assigned to watch over WA. This is not an assignment that I look forward to... but someone has to do it.. right ? My name is Sharque Feinstein ...... hey !!! I didn't choose the name originally... It will do for now. A rose is a rose is a .... anyway this is not something I worry much about. I can change my name anytime I want. Maybe I will in the future. I am going to tell you about how this all got started. About how the Wandering Asshole got his name. About his big idea. About how his idea actually got funded. About how different it turned out from what WA had in mind. I guess none of us would have guessed in advance what happened. We have some really, really smart PeeTess and I don't think they would have come close to guess-timating this particular outcome. Some of them are bat-shit smart so maybe I am wrong about that.
Anyway .... let me start at the beginning of what I think is the beginning. I am not going to do a James Michener and described gas clouds condensing , a solar system forming , a volcanic earth and all that crazy shit. No... for me the story begins when WA is showing off for his girl friend in front of a man friend of his. I guess there was some sexual competition going on. I don't know for sure since I know about all of this second or third hand. The girl was Jane York ..... that's right ... Jane York ... Darkhorse ... The Jane "Darkhorse" York. And the guy was Stephan Trabah.... If you don't recognize ST's name ; that is all right... he always treasured his privacy. And even though he became a billionaire... he was never famous. Also his contribution to the creation of the PTs was sort of an accident. He has watched the whole project unfold with a sort of detached amusement. And he never reveals to anyone that he was involved at all. [ So I am asking you to keep that piece of information to yourself. ] Neither WA, or Darkhorse or ST had shown any clues of what was to come. They were 3 students starting college. In fact , ST dropped out his first year and started working on what would become his first million dollars and so on... up to about 6+ billion dollars I think.

Let Insurers Issue Driving Licenses to Illegal Immigrants
December 25, 2007
St. Paul Pioneer Press, San Diego Union-Tribune, Sun Journal, Hour (Norwalk, CT)
The controversy about issuing driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants overlooks one possible solution: allow auto insurers to test and “license” such individuals.
On safety grounds, drivers and vehicles need to be tested to see that they meet required standards to reduce the risk of accidents. They also need to be insured so that those who cause accidents can at least pay the costs they impose on others. But unlicensed drivers can’t get insurance, which might explain why an estimated 14 percent of U.S. motorists operate uninsured vehicles.
The problem is that government-issued driver’s licenses serve many purposes beyond certifying the knowledge and competence of the driver. They are used as identity documents, which not only provide a path to social services, voting and citizenship but also give the holder access to public buildings and transportation facilities that require identification.
Authorizing insurers to test and license drivers and vehicles would eliminate these problems. A driving permit issued by an insurer or an insurance industry-affiliated organization would not provide a path to citizenship and could not be used as an identity document. But it would improve safety.
This is not a far-fetched idea. Placing responsibility on insurers is common in maritime transportation, for example, where safety is taken seriously - and ships and ships’ officers are tested and licensed by Lloyds of London and other insurers.
Because they could be held liable for any injuries caused or suffered by those they license, insurers would have compelling incentives to keep unsafe drivers and vehicles off public roads and probably would do it better than the government agencies now responsible.
For example, an October 2007 report by Maryland’s Office of Legislative Audits determined the state Motor Vehicle Administration’s accountability and compliance level was “unsatisfactory” in that required documentation was not always obtained for licenses issued and that driving licenses were issued even to dead people.
The report was particularly concerned about the implementation of Maryland’s Ignition Interlock program, which requires those convicted of drunken driving to have their vehicles equipped with devices that prevent them from starting if excessive alcohol levels are detected.
While Maryland’s MVA staff failed to properly enforce this program, can you imagine an insurance company, with tens of millions of dollars at risk, failing to enforce such an important deterrent?
In its 2000 report “Unlicensed to Kill,” the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety showed Maryland’s inability to control unlicensed driving was not unique.
According to the report, the percentage of unlicensed drivers in the 1990s varied from 6 percent in Maine to 23 percent in New Mexico. Unlicensed drivers were found to be almost five times more likely to be involved in fatal crashes than licensed drivers, and 20 percent of all fatal accidents involved at least one driver without a valid license.
Testing and licensing by insurers could thus improve safety and reduce the number of uninsured drivers on our roads, without perpetuating the political problems created by government licensing of illegal immigrants.
It might also help resolve another controversy: allowing Mexican trucks to operate on U.S. highways. If insurers took responsibility for testing, licensing and insuring foreign vehicles and drivers, American road users would have less cause for worry.
Some might object to insurer licensing on the grounds it would give excessive power to insurance companies, which would try to maximize profits by insuring only the lowest risks. But so long as there is competition among insurers, applicants turned down by one company could go to another, and policies would tend to be granted whenever risks were covered by premiums.
In a competitive market, insurers would have an incentive to develop and insist on the use of safety measures such as Ignition Interlocks for alcoholics and devices to prevent elderly and long-distance drivers from falling asleep at the wheel.
Issuing driving licenses to illegal immigrants should not be the source of so much controversy. It can be dealt with by creating alternative licensing options that place the responsibility fairly and squarely where it belongs: in the hands of the responsible insurers.

American fights for ISIS
Traitor ?
Douglas McAuthur McCain, 33, of San Diego was reported as having died while fighting as a member of ISIS. This seems to be big news for a large segment of the American public.
I have to give the guy snaps for his name. I love creative names. I wonder if he made this name up himself. I do not like what he was doing. He was engaged in making war on other people. I am not happy that he was killed. I am happy he has stopped making war.
[as I am about anybody who stops making war]
[as I am about anybody who stops making war]
I do not think he was a traitor. What is the definition of a traitor ? (1) None of us owe allegiance to America. (2) What is America ? A piece of land ? The Federal Government ? A mystical feeling ? People born in boundaries of the USA ? Did Douglas swear an oath to allege to America ?
What he did owe allegiance to ... was the idea of individual freedom ...... the right to Life , Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness ( LLPOH ). Douglas may have been unhappy... but he had no right to war on other people.
Police owe an allegiance to LLPOH. Politicians owe allegiance to LLPOH. Regulators, teachers , butchers , bakers , candle-stick makers owe an allegiance to LLPOH. This does not mean they have to lift 500 pounds fifty times or get up early or chant an oath. It can be as simple as the Zeroeth Commandment .... "Let thy neighbor alone".
Make this your focus each day as you wake up.... LLPOH ... for yourself and for others. And view each individual as an individual .... not as a member of some ill-defined group.
(1) [the definition of a traitor is somebody who betrays X by helping or supporting the enemy. But this goes along with the assumption that ISIS is ‘the enemy’. If you start with the axiom that X, Y, Z is an ‘enemy’, that automatically eliminates inquiry into what is going on, and why. If the starting point is: anything named ‘ISIS’ equals enemy, then you ignore what the nature of the thing named ‘ISIS’ actually is]
(2) [‘Allegiance’ derives from the 14th century in reference to obligation of a feudal vassal to the lord. It was a different time. You are no longer a feudal vassal, a slave. Since the 14th century, among other changes, there was the late 17th century Enlightenment, the Age of Reason. To insist that allegiance is owed is to revert back to pre-Enlightenment with all of its blind acceptance of traditional customs.]

the "I" in the storm
Every day I see references to "We" that do not make any sense......
We killed the Indians.
We tortured Palestinians.
We fund the CIA.
We treat blacks like trash.
We have military bases around the world.
I don't know about "you" but I did none of those things.
I invite you to spend time every day thinking about your individuality.
When are "you" ever really part of a "we" ?

Ferguson
The conflicts and unrest in Ferguson may appear to be about Michael Brown and his death. It would be a mistake to focus on that aspect of the situation. It is more important to look at these larger issues....
Justice for Michael Brown
There is no possibility of justice for Michael Brown. He is dead. Maybe you believe he can look down or up from wherever he is and see what is going on ? Any prosecution of the police is revenge and will do no one any good. It will cost time and money and produce nothing worthwhile.
Militarization of Police ( hate police )
This is a big issue and goes beyond how big the guns and how massive the vehicles are that the police have. The central issue is the attitude the police have. I am sure you have heard of "hate crimes" (1). In an analogous fashion, I believe we have police with a "hate" problem. Except for other police and their friends, most police hate everyone. The police have an "us and them" mentality. Some are better than others .... the police culture fosters this division. Some of the rules are: "Don't rat on your fellow officers" .... "Don't interfere with officers that are out of control" .... " Lie to produce results " ... "Don't take any back talk"
Goals set for the Police
Police are sent out each day to do immoral jobs. Collect revenue ( see Mountain View, CO ) , inflate statistics , arrest non-violent people doing innocuous things ( see drug war ) , arrest violent people who could be managed ( domestic violence ) , cultivate snitches , organize crimes and break the law to catch criminals. Police have been turned into GovThugs.
Labeling People
This is a monstrously large issue. It is complex and confusing. Something has gone wrong when people are grouped according to appearance , ancestry , location , ..... The only correct way to judge people is by their individual actions. Let me repeat that ..... by their individual actions. Not by speech... not by twitters .... not by shouted slogans. And self-labeling does not work any better than an externally applied label.
Society versus Individual Freedom
Does society have the right insist on conformity ? Does conformity lead to happiness ? Does conformity lead to productivity ? Does conformity lead to the greatest good for the greatest number ? A higher percentage of people are incarcerated in America than anywhere in the world. What is this about ? xxPrisonWorld

What is a Black ?
I am sure that some people will not believe me when I say I don't who or what a Black is. I know of no reliable scheme or method for determining who is Black, who is Hispanic , who is White , who is Asian , who is Who ....
1) Because they say so .....
I have a friend with the name R. Rodriguez. He claims minority status on the basis of his name. I know of no one who is more whitebread than he. So ??
2) Because everyone knows they are .....
Let us use Barack Obama as an example. When he was elected , some people looked like they were going to fly over the moon. "We have elected the first black POTUS they screamed.... a new era. Leaving aside the problem of who is referred to by "We" , I have to admit I do not understand how Obama qualifies as black. Because he is married to Michelle ? Because he has big ears ? Because he was born in... whoops , no one seems to be sure. All I know is that he is a smooth talking, two tongued liar , who hands out loot to his friends and seems ( does he have inner guilt ? ) to not mind ordering drone kills. His speech patterns do not clue me into his blackness. So help me out here... what am I looking for ?
3) They live in a ghetto ....
Okay... what if they move out of the ghetto ... or move into a ghetto.....
4) The census people know
What can I say ?
In the dark of night, I am even more confused....

There is always hope for the depressed
I am truly sorry to disagree........ for some people...ask me how I
know... there is not another prescription... there is not an effective psych ward ... there is just muddling through...... and keeping your head down and your mouth shut....
And why is that ?
Because there are well-meaning people ( and some who are not ) , that will take over your life and make it a living hell. Not being able to make your own lousy choices is the worst thing that can happen to some people.
The biggest problem is.... that once you are on someone's ( or some organization's ) radar , you may not be able to choose to go back into the closet. Sure... being open is a wonderful thing.... as long as you are surrounded by people who value personal liberty and self-actualization.
So the next time you offer some advice about "coming out of the depression closet" or " you ought to see a professional" .... maybe you are wrong. Maybe you are being selfish.

Sorry Matt
You can't see inside someone's mind and tell if they are better off being alive rather than being dead. My uncle was a very bright guy and he began suffering from dementia. He shot himself dead because he could not stand being dumb. Don't tell me he did not have the right to make that choice. An acquaintance of mine had a choice of taking chemicals to fight cancer or just taking pain killers. He chose pain killers. Another acquaintance is different: he would have to be dragged kicking and screaming to death. He has diabetes, has had two replacement kidneys, infections too gross to talk about. That is his choice and right. ( although it is costing taxpayers plenty of $$$ )
Stretching out a life may cause pain or pleasure to the individual. It may cause pain or pleasure to those around the individual. Don't imagine that you should be put in charge of making that choice for someone else. You are not that smart. You will never have all the facts.
Some people seem to be driven by a fear of death. They are so driven that they interfere with other people's freedom / liberty / pursuit of happiness. They demand laws and force to control others.

Free Lunch
#TIHARTAFLF
The " I Have A Right To A Free Lunch" Fantasy
It seems to be a widely held belief that some things should be free -- especially things that people really want. Here are some examples:
Medical Care
Water
Retirement
Sex
All of these things take effort to deliver. They involve cost. If ***YOU*** get it for free, then someone else had to pay for you. They either ......
1) Donated their money to provide you with the freebie.
2) Had their money taken away from them via force to provide for your freebie.
3) Donated their money after being threatened with force and violence. ( taxes anyone ? )
Important note .... Money ( Dollars , Euros , Pesos, BitCoin , etc ) is used as a marker for value. It give us some idea of how much a service or good is valued.
