Abuse Is Blasphemy
Dear Friends, It seems to me, if people are created in the image of God, then abusing another is a blasphemous act. It is literally disrespecting God by debasing an image of God. That’s the definition of blasphemy. If one … Continue reading

Dear Friends, There once was a compromised congress,Sitting while the nation became a mess,Supping on caviar,Riding in a limo car,And dancing to a tune in a red stained dress. The central planners are much smarter than you,Regulating our lives from … Continue reading

The Conditional Golden Mean
Dear Friends, It seems to me, Aristotle’s and Mencius’ Golden Mean sound great, but I fundamentally disagree. I admit both men were far more intelligent and wise than I. Their brilliance is accepted across the planet. They lacked something that … Continue reading

The Ironic Cycle of Civilization
Dear Friends, It seems to me, there is an Ironic Cycle of Civilization. In one sentence… it is that societal trust builds prosperity, and prosperity erodes trust, that lack of trust then ushers in poverty. If people come together in … Continue reading

Discerning the Role of Trust
Dear Friends, It seems to me, history is unambiguous, every moralist society has evolved into a legalist one, and then collapsed. This appears to be a natural law like the Pareto Distribution. Moreover, that collapse appears to be semi-permanent. The … Continue reading

Dear Friends, The elite chant in a crashing sound,Give us power wealth and a crown,We’re sitting high,So step aside,Because we’re riding this horse into the ground. Corporations are always scanning,Their competitors they are banning,It may be forsooth,But know this truth,Monopoly … Continue reading

Infuriated People Are Dangerous
Dear Friends, It seems to me, with every passing revelation of the crimes of the elite that go unindicted, is further proof the elite are as far above the law as the rest of us are below its protections. That … Continue reading

Double Standards Destroy Civilization
Dear Friends, It seems to me, the most efficient way to obliterate a civilization is with double standards. The stronger the double standards, the sooner that civilization will collapse into violence, poverty, and want. The reason is that perverse incentives … Continue reading

Distributed Blame
Dear Friends, It seems to me, bureaucracy can never effectively govern, because of distributed blame, its Achilles’ heel. If the bureaucracy breaks a law, ignores a court ruling or abuses people’s Constitutional Rights, who is punished? Moreover, which bureaucrat is … Continue reading
