If you want to understand our government’s policies — just think like a 14-year old:
A world of privilege without responsibility. A demand to have now at any cost; ignoring the future consequences.
A resentment and refusal to listen to advice. A rebellious attitude toward anyone and anything that restricts your behavior.
And a pattern of blaming everything on someone else — especially anyone outside the group.
Or you could read “Lord of the Flies.”
Keywords. Just as keywords help in search engine recognition; they can be used attach attributes to actions [whether or not they exist] — that is why every questionable government policy comes cloaked in words of righteousness.
Equality. Equal. Equitable.
And yes, the double meaning is intended.
We’re all in this together . . . but wouldn’t you rather be together somewhere else?
When you’re in a speeding vehicle with an impaired driver; maybe it’s better to jump out anywhere, then end up who-knows-where. Oh, Hell!
“Faster than a spending bureaucrat! More powerful than a lobby! Able to leap ethical barriers in a single bound!
(“Look! Up in the sky!” “It’s a Law!” “It’s a Mandate!” “It’s The Greater Good!”)
Yes, it’s The Greater Good… strange concept from an autocratic viewpoint, who came to our society with powers and abilities far beyond those given by the Constitution! The Greater Good… who can change the course of ethical guidelines, bend principles in his bare hands! And who, disguised as Equitable Policy, mild-mannered proponent for a Great Dictatorship, fights a never-ending battle against truth, justice, and the American people!
Is there a “kryptonite”? Yes, knowledge. Full Disclosure • Full Exposure of our government’s policies and statistics will change a Greater Good Dictatorship into a good for all democracy.
No concept could be scarier to today’s secular elite. The selective disclosure of information to legitimize elitist policy making is the stepping stone to their “greater good” dictatorship: a “Black Box” Bureaucracy of power and control.
I used to satirize this society by saying that the only rights left will be the right to be a victim and the right to be poor. This isn’t true — they’ll decide that as well.
TDML is one of those concepts that clearly points to the direction we are heading; it sets an acceptable level to act that should never be acceptable at all.
This is the perfect bureaucratic policy because it accepts inaction and paperwork as the solution to society’s ills.
We used to cringe at the dark logic of “10 to 20 million killed, tops” — Today that sort of thinking is standard government practice.
This poem is dedicated to the Autocrats who run our lives, those who aspire to that position, and those live off the scraps. You don’t believe it? When’s the last time you were ever asked [or allowed] to have any meaningful participation in policy making?
Patterns can reveal; but they can also be used to hide. Sometime the focus is kept narrow so that the larger pattern cannot be seen.
“Full Disclosure – Full Exposure” is a policy that has the promise of allowing the public examine all the factors that should be involved in any government decision making process.
This idea is not welcomed.
Evil recycles – it comes around again and again – the same content; remade.
Wouldn’t it be useful if government policies were labeled – “80% post corruption content” [the remaining 20% is mostly fools.]
Recycling: it’s the same evil with a different face.
This page is both an introduction and a conclusion. It introduces 33 pages of investigative and analytical articles; and it concludes the preparation of this section for publication. This is an insignificant fraction of the material I’ve researched and written concerning rural social justice, meaningful public participation, and government “shenanigans” in the county — in just checking the computer; there are 325 folders with 3,800 files that could have found their way into this book.
And every single one of them points in the same direction. How’s that for a circumstantial case? Then why can I get any action? Cornithaca County.
