Eyes On Corruption

Posted on June 21, 2022 by jamesq

Please answer the following questions, yes or no.
Does power corrupt?

Does absolute power corrupt absolutely?
Does a little power corrupt a little?
I have never known any one to answer these
questions with a no answer, except a few who
purposefully felt the need to cloud the issue or make
it ambiguous.
Here is another.

Does it make sense then that as power is
increased, the level of corruption on a
continuum based on that power, also increases on a similar continuum? If power on a scale from one to ten is a ten, would corruption be at a level of ten also?

The relationship does not have to be one to one, but is it still safe to assume that the most
powerful people in the world are quite a bit more corrupt than ordinary people with little or no
power.

The last question is, is the president of the united states more corrupt the day after he is
elected than he was the day before winning the election?

How power is obtained is an important consideration. A person with high intelligence and
education is more corrupt than many others, but only by a minuscule unimportant margin. If
power is obtained through the political process, corruption will be at a high level since the
acquisition of power is the goal from the beginning.

Remember that the incentive to serve is only imaginary. Leaders seek power for the purpose of
personal gain. No one does anything without an incentive. In the political arena, personal gain is
the only possible incentive.

So, when leaders are elected, corruption is created or increased? So, are our leaders corrupt? It is
impossible that they wouldn’t be. As power is taken from state and local governments and given to the federal government are we not also guaranteeing a more corrupt system? Increase the power of the Federal Government and corruption increases right along with it.

Many may notice that there is more corruption with the European Union than was present in each
and all of the individual member countries prior to its establishment. The lesson here is that as power is created, corruption is also created in line with the power that
has been created.

Why The United States Of America Is Doomed

Very simply, the mindset of the citizens is
conducive to what is normal in a centralized system
and actually destroys free markets and democratic
principles. Both are necessary and are all that has
created the high living standards Americans are
used to.

In a true democratic system, the citizens lead and
government follows. In order to manage
government, citizens need as much information as is
possible to obtain. In our system, most of which is
reverent, is withheld from them. It is reasoned that
ordinary people would misunderstand and misuse
information that only those in power can use wisely.
The overall population buys into this notion. Is it
true.

The common man is hopelessly inept and ignorant? If this is true, perhaps we should do away
with the jury system. Should grand juries have be the source of indictments with respect to all
cases including complex situations. If ordinary people are so stupid, why is our legal system,
based on the jury system, operating so well while other institutions are functioning so miserably?
Should a panel of experts decide who stands trial and who doesn’t? Should all legal decisions be
handed down from the bench?

It is universally acknowledged that power corrupts. Do you disagree? Does absolute power
corrupt absolutely? Are there any who believe otherwise? If all power corrupts and complete
power guarantees total corruption, does it not make sense that those who are high up on the
power scale are many more times corrupt than the people who elect them?

Citizens want government to solve their problems and assuage their fears. Those in charge are
looking for fears and problems to exploit. In today’s world government is even protecting
citizens from insulting one another. Assuaging fears is such a profitable activity, various entities
now scare people in order to sell them goods and services as protection.
With this mindset cemented in tact, it is an absolute certainty our system will collapse.
Democracy and free markets demand a mindset that is comparable with these systems. That
mindset is messing so our system will indeed collapse.

UFO Dialogue In Government

Posted on June 27, 2021 by jamesq

Times are very interesting. We have an economy
where all the unearned money in the world is
devoted to preventing the stock market from falling.
When that can no longer be done, the entire
economy will crash.

Economies around the world are shut down or
disabled due to the emergence of the Corona Virus.
The overall death rate in the U.S. is about the same
as it is every year. Even in states where masks are
no longer required, ordinary people are scared to
take them off.

The tech, insurance and banking corporations
authored the worldwide response to the Corona
Virus. They are prospering like nothing before. A handful of corporate insiders and other elites have literally conquered the world and are no dictating policy to virtually every government in the world. Countries around the world are baiting one another into war.
Ordinary citizens are complying with government edicts, waiting for all of these issues to disappear just like the have in the past.
And, now your government is about to release information to the effect of, UFO’s may very well be monitoring our military bases and that this all needs to be recognized and dealt with.

Personally, I have never given much thought to UFO dialog and alleged sightings. There are very
good reasons why we have never been visited bu aliens and most likely every be. That is because
if all life, including alien, is subject to the same laws of dominance and subservience they will
destroy themselves long before they ever make it out of their solar systems.

History shows that the life’s power struggle does not lose its intensity no matter how much
power is consolidated. Human beings never stop seeking power. The world is like a big game of
king of the mountain. Technology makes it possible to kill more and more people with fewer
resources and less effort.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Peasants in the field, on average arehardly corrupt at all. Corruption at the top, like with world leaders is so pronounced it is unfathomable. It is so unfathomable that folks insist on deeming it otherwise. In the end, given our system of dominance and subservience, certainty any intelligent life on earth will kill itself
off long before any serious space travel is possible.

But, there is no certainty that the same system of regulating life on earth is present on any other
planets where there is life. Chances are though that life is life and it works the same way no
matter where it is.

Scared people are a wonderful market. They will pay almost unlimited sums for even the illusion
of safety and security. So, if there is even a hint that aliens are scoping out our world, the cost of
living will skyrocket astronomically. Who wouldn’t surrender most rights to a central authority
in order to be protected from invading aliens from outer space?

Realistically, if an alien civilization is advanced enough to make it here, we might as well just
throw in the towel and wait and see what they do to us, if anything all.
We all know that you can’t get something for nothing. Perhaps aliens can show us that there
really is a way to get something for nothing. That would sure make a lot of human beings happy.
