Debt Super Committee Needs a Hero? I’ll be your Huckleberry

9:26 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

Well the deadline has come and gone for the Debt Super Committee? The Stock Market is roiled and America risks having its credit rating down graded. What should be done?

This morning this author took his breakfast at the Monticello MN McDonald’s http://bit.ly/w3K82o (buck breakfast burritos with buck Sweet Tea) Watching on their big screen TV, this author was angered as he listened to one of the CNN talking heads report about the failings of the Debt Super Committee http://bit.ly/vcOoLt

Along the way, the CNN talking head made some ”life imitating art” reference to the Debt Super Committee http://bit.ly/vcOoLt needing a hero and Bonnie Tyler’s song “I need a hero” http://bit.ly/snk74H

In keeping in that mindset of life imitating art, this author advises that he is not qualified to be the Super Committee’s hero…. But “I’ll be your huckleberry”. http://bit.ly/t1T7dQ

This huckleberry has suggested some of the following courses of action before but no one listened. Perhaps now at the 11th hour, some will be willing to listen to this huckleberry.

This huckleberry certainly can’t be as smart of any of you folks in Congress.

And, mind you, this huckleberry doesn’t have a clue what the numbers are. There is no transparency in our alleged Constitutionally limited Representative Republic Government. Further, all of this huckleberry’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests regarding budgets have been denied.

And this huckleberry certainly doesn’t have enough information to know who is and who is not paying enough taxes. All of this huckleberry’s requests to put the budget and/or actual revenues and expenses on the internet in layman’s terms with no aggregates greater than 100 dollars have also been rejected.

But with all of that forewarning by this huckleberry, here goes.

First, get the politics out of the process as much as possible. All you incumbent ruling class elite politicians are too busy jockeying to protect your benefactors to make this process intelligent and logical.

Your method of working upon this issue, with all of your hidden agendas, is farcical.

STEP 1 – BREAK THE BUDGET INTO LOGICAL DIVISIONS

Conservative Advice to #Occupy Wall Street (#OWS) and the 99%

9:37 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

To begin with, thank you. Thank you for taking the time to be involved in our country’s politics. For many years, various people have opined about the apathy of the American voter while American Politicians took the occasion of this apathy to ignore the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

To be honest, this author is disappointed with many of my fellow conservatives who talk the talk of Constitution, Bill of Rights and Natural Law. They lay claim to the moral high ground but have forgotten to walk the walk. 1st Amendment Rights are not just those for those who agree with our positions on issues. http://goo.gl/6tibX. To paraphrase (and correct) a prominent Republican:

Constitutionally-Limited Representative Republic where WE THE PEOPLE are guaranteed certain inalienable Natural Rights is messy.”

This author advises his fellow conservatives, if you are going to claim the moral high ground, you need to walk the talk. If rank and file America adopts the casual attitude of the politicians towards truth, justice, integrity, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, America is doomed.

CRITICAL THINKING

This author does not presume to “tell” the Occupy Movement anything. This is an exercise in constructive advice. This author places loyalty to Country and WE THE PEOPLE over loyalty to any political party. The Truth knows no loyalty to any political party.

As evidence of this author’s philosophy, the following is a statement this author normally closes his articles with:

“Critical Thinking Notice – This author advises you as no politician would dare. Exercise Critical Thinking ( http://goo.gl/MEMfo ) in determining the truthfulness of anything you read or hear. Do not passively accept nor believe anything anyone tells you, including this author… That is unless and until you verify it yourself with sources you trust and can actively defend your perspective to anyone who might debate you to the contrary of your perspective.”

This notice to think critically for yourselves should disarm any allegations that this author is attempting to manipulate you. In fact, upon reflection and thinking critically for yourselves, this author believes you will realize others have already duplicitously manipulated the current “perceptions of reality” of each of you for their purposes.

PROLOGUE

If you are of the liberal political persuasion and have made it this far, thank you for taking the time to listen and think critically. If you need further motivation to continue reading, use this as an opportunity to get to know your perceived enemy.

For those of you of a conservative political persuasion, this author refuses to be sucked into the duplicity of the Incumbent Ruling Class elite of either the Republicans or the Democrats. This author seeks to break the false political paradigm the incumbent ruling class elite use to enslave the rank and file of WE THE PEOPLE. In the end, much of this article will be as much Enlightenment for conservatives as it is for liberals.

This center-right conservative author is making this effort to advise the Occupy Movement because it appears to be a group of young, politically novice citizens with genuine and legitimate concerns who need some honest, non-manipulative guidance. Since few who should step forward have sought to offer sincere advice, this author feels a responsibility to fill this void for his fellow Americans.

This author believes the force of his logical argument will create a political paradigm shift. And that this paradigm shift will cause rank and file American of both parties to realize that the 2 major political parties are merely an arbitrary categories created by the ruling class elite to divide, conquer and manipulate, WE THE PEOPLE.

CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW…. ABRIDGING http://goo.gl/bHPo

This author is enraged at the circuitous means the right to free speech, freedom of assembly and the right to petition the government for redress of grievances is being abridged. The first Amendment says “Congress shall make no law…. abridging” these first amendment rights. The definition of abridge from Dictionary.com http://goo.gl/R5DjM:

2. toreduce or lessen in duration, scope, authority, etc.; diminish; curtail: to abridge a visit; to abridge one’s freedom.

3. to deprive; cut off.

Yet some how a myriad of zoning laws, permit laws, health code laws, etc. have been erected which effectively abridge WE THE PEOPLE’s Natural Rights of Speech, Assembly and Government Petition. With a wink and a nudge the ruling class elite passes these laws to suppress, repress and oppress WE THE PEOPLE. By using these circuitous rules, the ruling class attempts to plausibly deny that they are abridging the First Amendment. The net effect is to make our Government less accountable to WE THE PEOPLE.

At the same time, this author recognizes and vigorously defends the private property rights of the private property owners. However, if WE THE PEOPLE cannot protest on private property nor freely protest on Public Property, where may WE THE PEOPLE go to protest and/or otherwise make our sentiments known? Is it not mocking hypocrisy to guarantee WE THE PEOPLE free speech, free assembly and freedom to Petition the Government, and then outlaw the locations where free speech and assembly can be practiced? What is the difference between our elected officials directing law enforcement to mace, hose, rubber bullet and arrest Protesters for alleged zoning and health code violations and dictators and communists directing their law enforcement to use the same mace, hose, rubber bullets and arrests to suppress, repress and oppress political dissent?

What would our Founder’s say if they heard about these circumventions of the 1st Amendment? What would George Washington have said if King George decreed; “No tents or signs at Valley Forge if the temperature drops below freezing?” How do any of our US Government officials make these decrees in good faith, knowing our history, traditions and the intentions of the Founder’s in drafting the 1st Amendment?

Whether we conservatives support the Occupy Movements positions on issues or not, who, if not we conservatives shall defend to the death, their right to protest? http://goo.gl/6tibX Or will we conservatives wait until someday when our right to protest is denied. And then realize there is no Court of Public Opinion to appeal to because we failed to uphold the Constitution and Bill of Rights now?

Political issues must be resolved on the force of logical argument and not brute oppression or America is destined for tyranny and revolution. And yes, it will be messy. Such is the nature of freedom and liberty.

The Winds of Change are blowing

SIMPLE ADVICE FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF PUBLIC RELATIONS

Before we address the political paradigm shift, let us address certain aspects of your protest that remain more or less constant regardless of your current perspective of reality……

STOP ALLOWING YOURSELF TO BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF
BY THE 2 MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES

OPEN YOUR MIND AND PREPARE YOURSELF FOR A NEW, TRUER
PERCEPTION OF REALITY

CHILDHOOD MYTHS AND FANTASIES

“We have a tradition in America of imparting to our children seemingly harmless, fanciful perceptions of reality. The Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus are all fanciful myths aka manufactured false perceptions of reality.  Almost all of us Americans fervently believed at least one of these fantasies in our early lives.
Our Parents and teachers and other people in our lives imparted to us a belief in these myths as being true.
And, we believe these stories basically for 4 different reasons:

  1. At that age, we are less sophisticated and less able to discern truth from fiction.
  2. And, regardless of our age, more likely believe something we are told when it told to us by people we trust and/or love.
  3. Circumstantial evidence – Money replacing the teeth. Easter Baskets on Easter Morning.  Easter egg hunts at Church. The cookies and milk we set out for Santa were gone the next morning.  Jingle bells outside of the house at the appropriate time. Children’s Books dedicated to the subject. TV ads and programs espousing the existence of said Santa Claus, etc.
  4. The fictional perception of reality is more desirable than the alternative. In short, we want to believe because we benefit or perceive benefit from going along with the myth.  e.g. money, candy, gifts. And these myths also give us a nebulous, warm fuzzy feeling and sense of security. They made the world seem less harsh and friendlier.
If we are honest with ourselves, we will acknowledge that our youthful “perception of reality” incorporated unquestioning and absolute belief in the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and/or Santa Claus. Regardless of how easily we can disprove that reality now, and how ridiculous our belief in them seems on retrospection,   we believed in these myths at one point in our lives. We accepted these myths as the truth and they were our Reality.  Through these myths, almost all Americans share the experience of believing in a perception of reality that was never real, despite our once fervent belief that they were.

And we did not easily give up our beliefs in these myths. Even when harsh reality was brought to our attention some of desperately clung to the fantasy…  I can remember some kids in the school yard fighting their peers who were the bearer of bad news.  Others were more restrained in their responses, waiting to go home and check with a trusted and reliable source, their parents.  I did not want to believe that my parents would believe me.  And for those that clung to the myth, there was the peer pressure of being ridiculed and being called immature.
But once the individual overcame their desire for their false perception of reality to be true, they very quickly came to realize the discrepancies in the myth.  For example, the impossibility of one single person such as Santa Claus delivering gifts to every household in one night…  Or the impossibility of reindeer and a sleigh defying the law of gravity.  They all seem so obvious in retrospect.
However, other myths and mysteries of life don’t offer the same absolute proof and closure as the false perceptions of reality involving Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus. And these myths, fantasies, deceptions, delusions and duplicities are far more injurious than our childhood fantasies.


PERCEPTION IS REALITY
Essentially, each person’s perception of reality comes only from their daily interactions and cumulative inputs to their senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. http://bit.ly/8c3u and http://bit.ly/aUAj3s
With that in mind, I ask you each to go back to that period of your life when you fervently believed in the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus….”

The Solution – Split the USA in half

6:27 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

This is a teaser for an article I wrote on examiner.com.

“For of you who are not aware, the United States of America is hurtling toward collapse.

Standard and Poors recently reported that it was giving the USA a negative credit outlook as a result of our uncontrolled spending and resulting deficit.

And if you want to believe the dog and pony show the ruling class is putting on, they can’t agree on how to resolve the deficit crisis. The Republicans and Democrats are arguing over $39 Billion in spending cuts when the real annual deficit is $1.65 trillion. It seems our country is divided between groups of people with different visions for the future…”
