Political Party Extinction

Political Party Extinction   Speak Truth To Failure Political Party's have gone extinct. Never to return. Cried The Raven. Nevermore. Nevermore. Wait, what? ha! ha! Here, have a chart: Let's do a little math x = Personal Communication Power y = Personal Transportation Power z = Personal Education Power P = Party Political Power I = Ideology Power P = I / ( x + y + z) As the denominator of various personal powers increase then the party power diminishes. The chart is for illustrative purposes only and has no quantities. The idea is simply to illustrate  ideology and thinking for oneself are inversely proportional. The more one thinks for oneself then the less one relies on ideology and the root causes for thinking independently are education, transportation and communication power. Personal education power enables us to think for ourselves. Personal transportation power enables us to meet an ever growing circle of people who think differently,

America Dissolved - A New American World View

America Dissolved I'm going to predict the future. Here it is. Google and other tech companies are soon going to start paying salaries in dual currency, fifty-percent American dollars and fifty-percent a country of your choice. I was debating between calling this essay "America Reloaded" or "America Dissolved." If you've seen "The Matrix Reloaded" there is a scene in there that reflects Silicon Valley. Specifically when Neo asks the Oracle what the Merovingian wants? Her reply, "What do all men want, power. More power." Silicon valley tech men are political neophytes, or Neos. For starters they think everybody thinks like them: greed is universal. This is reinforced by a culture of greed. The CEOs of Silicon Valley are universally driven by greed and this is what they see staring at them everywhere they go. This reinforces a world view that everyone is the same. Today's tech leaders believe anyone of importance wants the

We won! We have conquered surviving. We have the technology today to provide food, shelter and clothing to seven-billion cheaply. The only reason we are not providing food, shelter and clothing to our brothers and sisters worldwide is politics. We are still bombing each other to death. The information age marks a new era of human objective: quality of life. I call this the Human Quality Principle: The human race is over! The information age marks a new era of human objective: quality of life. Our fundamental government failure today is we are

2028 Cyberwar WWW III

2028 Cyberwar WWW III - Movie Script Part I: Attack!  (The movie opens with a shot of a theater-in-theater, a scene of a movie theater audience watching a trailer ending. The same trailer, that in fact, that just ended.) (The house lights are down in both places, the theater and the scene of a movie theater shown from the audience perspective, i.e. picture-in-picture.) (Music begins softly, The Blue Danube, by Johann Strauss, and slowly the camera zooms in on the theater-in-theater until there is nothing but black. During this zoom-in the music is getting louder proportionaly as the camera zooms in.) (The screen goes all black as the zoom completes and "2028" and "Cyberwar WWW III"  in a thick-line white font appears on the screen. The text "Cyberwar WWW III" is below the word "2028".) (The movie title disappears and is replaced by what looks like a single star.) (Again, the camera zooms in and the music grows louder. As we pan in th
