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 ) ....

US Military is NOT a Swiss Army Knife

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

ˈpräksē/

noun

noun: proxy

1. 1.

   the authority to represent someone else, especially in voting.

   "they may register to vote by proxy"

   synonyms:

   deputy, representative, substitute, delegate, agent, surrogate, stand-in, attorney, go-between "I am here to vote as Mrs. Carlson's proxy"

   • a person authorized to act on behalf of another.

     plural noun: proxies
   • a document authorizing a person to vote on another's behalf.
2. 2.

   a figure that can be used to represent the value of something in a calculation.

   "the use of a US wealth measure as a proxy for the true worldwide measure"

When person "X" demands that a government agent "Stand-in" for them .... that agent is a proxy for "X".


"Learning" RayRice and AdrianPeterson

"Slugging" it out on the Football Field

Comments I have made

Salon
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

From ZeroGov
Voting
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.

Heroes is an Orwellian-ized word.   The term "Heroes" has been applied to everything including people doing their regular un-threatening jobs.    So let me say .....

        * Mountolive (1958)

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

Gabriel Roth

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.
