The Song is Over ...Next
So, I've got this idea. Kinda 'if'y, might not work, dunno. Let me know what you think of it? lol.
I will forewarn any readers that this does involve a bit of 'Big Brother' idealism. Just a warning; intended for mature audiences.
We know that all the bailout money so far IS NOT going to work. It's evident that it is only procrastinating the inevitable. 1) Before any more funds are allocated as a 'bailout' or 'stimulus' or any other such idiotic terminology, the government pushes the stop button.
When a driver has steered off the road, it is the wisdom of, and in best interest of, the driver to correct the steer and return to the road, given traffic is clear to proceed ...or pull over if possible, stop, regain composure, then resume corrective action and get going.
I think we missed a turn back somewhere, and we need to get on the right road from where we are. Also, the traffic on the road is quite heavy, with crashes everywhere all the time ...not to mention the animals and stupid people crossing in front of us. As a nation, as well as a global society, we need to realize that the childhood dreamcar we've been racing around in for the past couple hundred years is falling apart ...maintenance is more than its worth. It's time to buy a new car.
I remember the days when people were looked at funny for owning foreign vehicles; when no foreign auto felt comfortable in the same parking lot as American autos. People dreamt away childhoods fantasizing about American cars. Now, oh man! Now, it costs too damn much to start with, and sure as h3ll isn't worth it, drinks too much gas, could do better on safety and safety related recalls, and aren't near as powerful as the yacht my dad bought the family when we were kids in Hillsboro, ND; it was American. Or, how about those American cars that are suchered (probably not spellt right -- those dissolvable stitches) up pieces from around the globe.
Haha. You're probably waiting for me to get to number 2. I'll get there ...lol.
In a process that would take, in my naive estimate, approximately two years if done right and well, we can set our compasses and embark on a journey, together; bring hope back to EVERY American; change the economic structure to fit for a much more 'fair share' (don't worry, not a sort of redistribution of wealth); again set for the world a goal to reach and a dream that does come true; be on a path to ending poverty and homelessness; be free from fear of a neighbor; live the American dream; show the world what democracy is all about when we can stand in the face of global adversity, and with a sure foot down proclaim, that we are proud to be American.
Here is the catch -- government direction, government involvement, government incentives, and government oversight. We pay the government a lot of money. They better start listening to us. They better start leading.
So, here's my cyllabus (i shoulda paid attention in school). It won't be possible to put the whole plan in one blog. No one would read it. So, here are things pertaining to this plan that I will address in upcoming blogs, and definitely feel free to message or comment me with questions or comments.
The future of the auto industry
Unemployment
Banking and The Market
Real Estate
Health Care
International Relations
The Friggin IRS
Education is the key to EVERYTHING
Please, stay tuned.

Been a bit ...
Its two weeks into the new election, and what an election it was. The election by an obvious turnout of new voters, young voters and veterans. A new generation has taken stand, and a nation as a whole has said so much. Yet, i need to ask, are we as a nation ready for this? Is the world ready for this?
How many people have had the opportunity to educate themselves outside anything traditional? How many of us really understand all the implications of EVERYTHING that is occurring ...right now? Who is watching the WHOLE picture, not just the new picture in the hallway?
As this blogspot header begins with, i'm all about learning something. I believe we all need to 'learn something.' Some time ago (like some 15 years), something sparked in me to find the meaning of life. I think i found it. No, it wasn't religion, although the faith i was involved in taught me a tremendous lesson. But, it was during that time of faith that the spark became a fire. In short, the meaning of life is in the pursuit of the meaning of life (which is one reason I believe humans are set apart from the rest of life on the globe). In my pursuit, I've learned that learning everything you can is the best way to 1) exercise your mind (not necessarily brain ...unless you need to) and 2) stabilize life and direct its path by being versatile/agile.
Now, I need to figure a way share what I see in the 'picture' I'm viewing without any readers just clickin off ...hmmm.
Asteroid, Four years, Election, Israel, Ishmael, Abraham, Obama, Clinton, Syria, Persia, Mayan, Time, Space, 2012, calendar, US, Europe, etc. etc.
I am really hoping no one looks into this with an alarmist or conspiratal slant, but I am completely well aware that it most definitely can. Is conspiratal even a word?
This election precursors a point in time that I believe has been set, like a clock, in the universal design. Hmmm! Does that sound right? I have had the awkward yearning (lol) for and obvious opportunity to grab and relate some history, astronomy, philosophy, theology, psychology, and sociology for the purpose of education ...knowledge. I'm still working on the wisdom part though, lol. Anyway, I belive I have been able to correlate similarities between everything that involves life (haha, that sounds a little presumptuous and eccentric), including time. Now, I'm really throwing myself out there and i'm going to be the laughing stock of, well, everyone. Lol, oh well, its my blog.
Anyway, I invite all to continue coming back if you wanna hear what I gotta say, hopefully learn something. I'm always open for comments and will personally read them.
And I'm changing the subhead of the blog ...hope u like it. lol.
I recommend everyone look up 2012 in Wikipedia. Look at all those elections that year. It is also the year of the Water Dragon (i believe ...please correct me if i'm wrong). There's also this 'alleged' hoax of an asteroid/comet (planet in some circles) that is supposed to pass by earth. Also, the long-count calendar, made popular by Mayans and many Mesopotamians, has an awesome climax at the end of 2012. Then there is the apocalyptic timeline from three major religions (see eschatology), versus the 'enlightenment' view from several other major faiths. Could what is coming be a 'missing link' in evolution, or prove that there is a god in control of things? Could what a god have set in motion annihilate everything we know? Or is there something that connects all these things, yet none are right? Is there even a point in putting any of it into the big picture? Oh, but there's so much. Next post.
I haven't learned everything, but I have learned there's more to what is in store than electing the first African-American to the office of President of the United States. I am so proud of being an American, especially at this time. As a nation, we told racism to stand back. As a nation, we told the world We Are The People of the United States of America, and we're proud.
