"Enough Money"
One of the many shallow statements that sound good-- if you don't stop
and think about it-- is that "at some point, you have made enough money." The key word in this statement, made by President Barack Obama recently, is "you." There is nothing wrong with my deciding how much money is enough for me or your deciding how much money is enough for you, but when politicians think that they should be deciding how much money is enough for other people, that is starting down a very slippery slope. Politicians with the power to determine each citizen's income are no longer public servants. They are public masters.

But doesn't your moral statement above require a commissar or committee to decide what my -- and my family's -- "needs" are? I do not wish to live under such rulers, who would be no better than the current oligarchs. And, in fact, it is quite natural for superior men and women to create and amass more than they can currently use. This is the basis for leisure time, and without leisure time, and the freedom it brings from Man's constant scrambling for the necessities, there would be no philosophy -- or art -- or science. and Unamerican. [...] What a bizarre claim. Washington and Madison and Jefferson wouldn't, I think, have concurred. However, we may have some points of agreement. People can make all the money they want, as long as they pay their fair share of taxes. The wealthy pay way less, as a percentage of their income, as any other demographic. Going after the Swiss banks is a good start. http://tompaine.com/Archive/scontent/7082.html |

The City of Angels (Los Angeles,California, there is another Los Angeles

I have a soft back book here which I bought at the Books A Million Book store on I-55 North Frontage Road a bunch of years ago.That Book is all about the American Trolley Cars with a lot of photos too.Some of those old American built Trolley Cars were sold to South America.They, or some of them, are still running in South America.

With all good wishes, Kevin Alfred Strom. --http://kevinalfredstrom.com/ What should those different values and higher biological qualities be? As far as values are concerned: A sense of peoplehood is essential -- and a sense of peoplehood necessitates race consciousness, since nations are biological entities, not mental or geographic ones. With a sense of peoplehood -- of who "we" are -- and the ability to see that the survival and progress of our people should be our highest moral values, trumping all others, we have a _chance_ of survival. Without those values, there is no hope: Healthier peoples will displace us and swamp us -- physically, culturally, and genetically. As for biological quality: Life, for all living beings, is a struggle for the right to pass our genes on to future generations. Some human groups have less frontal lobe capabilities than we do, but are far more fecund and loyal to their kind on average than we are. Others have slightly higher IQs than us on average, but less tendency to produce creative geniuses. Only time will tell which is the best strategy. There have always been races and varieties of men (just as there have always been varieties of birds or wheat or squirrels), for as long as there have been men on this planet. As in the days of _homo neanderthalis_ and his competitors -- and as in the days of the several races of _homo erectus_ -- some of the branches of humanity will succeed and continue to evolve and branch yet further... and others will go extinct. The best strategy for our people being among the former is, I think, positive eugenics. This does not at all mean a society more coercive than ours is. It just means rewarding people with high character and intelligence and creativity for having children -- and rewarding those with a lack of those characteristics for not having children. (This could ultimately lead to a dramatic reduction in societal coercion, since people of high intelligence and character and responsibility don't need many laws or policemen or prisons, nor do they generally want them.) I believe that the nation that adopts positive eugenics on a large enough scale will advance and prosper at a rapid and compounding rate. It could possibly leave the rest of us behind to the same extent that _erectus_ was left behind once true humans emerged -- and refused to mate with the lower types.

Aristotle:"Most men are such slaves to passion they'd do better in the hands of a more rational master". Politics claims, but fails, to produce that master. Reading Cosmopolitan and Glamour to see what young women are being told, I find raps about them giving up on ever meeting "Mr. Wright" and going to fertility clinics. They wont have the perfect marriage, but are very happy with the perfect baby. Upscale white thirty something career women, no longer sexy hotties are increasingly doing this, and no doubt, raising the first generation of the Uberwench. But in the name of equal opportunity, we should subsidize fertility clinics for poor women and provide DNA analysis. If need be, provide in vitro so these women, who have repeatedly shown us they can raise kids on little money, would be far more rewarded for their effort later in life as successful children will be better able to look after momma. Even if mom's skin is darker. There's lotsa stories from the Robber Baron era of successful men who took very good care of their black nannies later in life. This just moves that process up 9 months. It'd reduce the cost of premature infants so much that alone would be justify fertility clinic services. Make it available to illegal women. the men who think they own these women will ship them back to the old country ASAP rather than using them to produce anchor babies. |

These power structures you refer to were all established by alpha males. But the threats and violence they employed to get power dont work so well anymore. They cant even protect themselves from modern weapons like nukes and WMD, much less the rest of us. Their protection services were why we put up with their BS in the first place. And in contrast to the Semitic claim that they are all the "Sons of Abraham", now we see upscale thirty something white career women going to fertility clinics to select from among the most promising Y chromosomes... to get the perfect baby, and blowing off the idea of ever having the perfect marriage. And as the network of fertility clinics expands, the price will fall down to the point where non-white poor women will take advantage of the same services. And we all know what Y chromosome lines they will pick. The whole notion of "race" will become obsolete in a few generations. |

Problem-solvers tend to be intelligent and responsible. Unfortunately, problem-solvers often carry the "responsibility" part too far -- to the point where it becomes self-defeating.

We may be heading for a near-extinction event, such as the event(s) that brought the European and Asian races into being. (We know that such an event or events took place, since genetic variation among races which left Africa in prehistoric times is _far less_ than among those who stayed -- therefore extreme circumstances made for a dramatic culling of the population, resulting in relatively rapid evolution and the formation of new races.) If drastic steps are taken now to increase the problem-solver percentage of our population, it's possible that a cataclysmic collapse and near-extinction-type culling can be avoided. If we don't do that, America will continue to go down the path of Third Worldization -- and become little more than a gigantic nuclear-armed Zimbabwe, and a powerful catalyst for destruction. Either way, the problem-maker contribution to the gene pool will, ultimately, be drastically reduced. Nature cannot be fooled.

We may be heading for a near-extinction event, such as the event(s) that brought the European and Asian races into being. (We know that such an event or events took place, since genetic variation among races which left Africa in prehistoric times is _far less_ than among those who stayed -- therefore extreme circumstances made for a dramatic culling of the population, resulting in relatively rapid evolution and the formation of new races.) I think it will be a total extinction event(s), brought on by greed, ignoring the problem until it is too late. We humans are driving many species into extinction ever day. Japan and a few other countries are still whaling, even though the whale population is dropping to near extinction. The mountain gorillas are all but gone, thanks to Japan paying good money for gorilla hand ash trays. Actually I think I just pointed out one of the major offenders, Japan. If drastic steps are taken now to increase the problem-solver percentage of our population, it's possible that a cataclysmic collapse and near-extinction-type culling can be avoided. That would require some major social engineering, like pairing up individuals with with high IQ's and making babies that would grow up and just possibly solve the problems. That would be assuming that these individuals would be willing. Tax the snot out of the lower IQ problem makers and cut welfare families off from making babies just to get a 'raise'. Do not feed the starving children in Africa or anywhere else unless the food has birth control in it. It will never happen or course since that would be politically incorrect, and/or offensive to the religious types. If we don't do that, America will continue to go down the path of Third Worldization -- and become little more than a gigantic nuclear-armed Zimbabwe, and a powerful catalyst for destruction. Either way, the problem-maker contribution to the gene pool will, ultimately, be drastically reduced. Nature cannot be fooled. Of course the problem makers will go first, but then we problem solvers will have no one at the lower levels to grow and harvest food. Kind of a self defeating thing so I think we will all go. With all good wishes, Kevin Alfred Strom. Cheers, Bill Baka |
