Day 350: A Living Income Guaranteed will End Charity - for Real

Day 349 walked privately

When I was a kid I went to Catholic schools.

Every year a missionary from Africa would come and tell us why he was collecting money to build wells and hospitals for the poor kids of Africa.

I was a kid 40 years ago and poverty in Africa has been increasing no matter how many have preached and pledged to help the poor and to help end poverty, we have a staggering number close to 1 billion people starving in the world.

There is a world full of reason to Why Poverty exist, few are willing to look at the point that Poverty is in fact man-made and not a natural phenomenon or a disease -well at least not in the traditional sense of the word disease although it is a dis-ease for those who experience it, for those who are born on the wrong side of this Capitalistic system, where the Capital of this world is clearly Money and Profit and not Life.

So, what makes us want to believe in Charity as a solution and not see it for what it is, as part of the problem of accepting this unequal world as a system that can't be changed for which we have to come up with ever cleverer ideas about how to cure what is in fact absolutely preventable and correctable if we only set our minds right to what are the real important things in this world that need to be prioritized.

We have lost the plot, we have lost the power to stand for what Matters, while we were busy claiming that we are not responsible for this world, we lost our ability to Respond, our Self Response-Ability to say that we don't give a flying frack about spending money in 'defense efforts' which are ill disguised neo-colonialism operations through which we create further poverty for the unlucky ones, we have lost the power to say that public money must be spent for the public good and not to embellish buildings like the MoD in England, so other unwilling fighters can be attracted into war games, we have lost our way from what matters into delusions like ideas and ideals about profiting from everything and everyone to cater for My Wishes vs Everyone's Needs.

The point though to consider is that we lost our power only because we abdicated it to institutions that kept promising to do what would be best for all even in the face of the physical evidence that this is not so, but every abdication can be revoked, we can return to ourselves our self-response-ability and stand for a world that is not driven by profit and greed, but by the understanding that unless all have a dignified life, unless I grant to All their Right to Life, I have No Right to Life and my Life is as uncertain as the ones of those who are either born at rock bottom or who have been driven to rock bottom by a system that caters only for those on top.

So, let's see Charity for what it is, Imagine that someone is tortured daily and instead to stop the torture, we invent post traumatic stress disorders props, that would be INSANE, but this is in fact what we do everyday with the Poverty point, no  one seems interested in asking the real questions about poverty, like 'Why Poverty', we just accept it, we accept the Missionary and the Missionary Position in which we screw ourselves into acceptance vs standing as a point that says 'enough' and remolds itself into a point of Support, into a brick of the Solution that we can bring to this world.

Give as you would like to receive could NEVER mean Charity, Charity is demeaning, it is degrading, it is the acceptance that some lives are worth less and worthless and that The Poor need to be happy with what we give, the crumbs from our banquets tables, we have never understood the point of 'Giving as we would like to receive', it meant to give to others the Life we would be willing to live and not to patch up with a few pennies the unliveable lives of those that have no choice but to survive within this cruel system and try to make it through another day.

Another world is possible, if we consider all lives Equally valuable, Charity will no longer exist in a Just world, nor will exist any of the institutions that live on it from the churches, to Temples, to Foundations (that secretly get tax returns way bigger than what they publicly devote into apparent charitable activities) and imagine what a wonderful world that would be. A world that works for All, would work for You too.

Day 343: Abu Ghraib and The Macchiavellian use of Press

Today I read an article on the escape of 1500 inmates from the MAXIMUM SECURITY Abu Ghraib prison complex.

Apparently 1500 people walked out of the detention facilities over a fortnight, I specifically use the verb 'walking out' vs the one used by the press, which is 'broke out' because it's impossible that 1500 people escape all at the same time,  unless someone opens the door for them to go. And of course we are not given to know the reasons, they may have been released due to the Ramadan, or because holding them without a trial had done its time and some believed they should go free, whatever the 'hidden' reasons for this 'prison takeover', someone is milking this story.

We are being served a traditional Macchiavellian Plot, the famous Problem - Solution - Reward, unfortunately not what we should create to include All living beings in the Equation, is just one of the ruling class plots, where a problem is created so the Mass of Sheeples we have become can ask for The Solution that someone has already designed and wants implemented without resistance. It will be interesting therefore to see what comes out of this, please stay tuned into the news, who knows that this may become your chance to wake up to the amazing deception of this world.

No matter how long has this been going on we still seem unable to see through what we are been given daily to amp up our fears, this is how we are kept in place, we are basically way too ignorant and apathetic  for our own good and our ignorance is what separates us from finding Real Solutions to the problems of this World. We live as bystanders, treat this planet as a waiting room while we queue up to die, what have we become?

This Abu Ghraib news is far reaching, it will hit those that are just too 'out of the Know' to be aware of what this represents by telling them 'that a major outbreak of dangerous, vengeful criminal has taken place in the Middle East and hence we ALL have to be on the Alert, we must FEAR what is going to come (which we'll tell you in a few days, once your Fear has reached the Level we expect from You)'. 

It targets as well those who have done some research and remember that the Abu Ghraib prison is still at the centre of a huge controversy about Human Rights, about torture, rapes and appalling living conditions for 'possible criminals who have not been proven to be criminals through a regular Trial' and how countries who have outlawed torture as a systems of 'gathering information', just to name two the USA and the UK, have taken advantage of facilities that they run remotely in foreign lands, to do as they please, pretending they are no,t because they get Locals to run those facilities on their behalf, just like Foxxcon in China that works exclusively for Apple but is run by the Chinese hence exempting Apple from questioning or even having to face the allegations of extensive breeches of Human Rights that drive people to suicide.

What should send shivers up our spines is then not the outbreak, it's not the implication that we now have 1500 dangerous, poisoned, vengeful criminals on the loose, as the press implies, but is how we have allowed such systems to even exist in the name of our alleged safety, it's how is it possible that what we can't conceive at home and we have made illegal, has become perfectly fine on foreign land, far from the eyes far from the heart?

So, use the Abu Ghraib Prison News to start your research into the Horrors of this world, use your common sense to see through the news so that you are not just shaken and stirred at will, without seeing the bigger picture of what is going on and then educate yourself, because Political Plots such as this are quite transparent if you understand that those in power are just using the same ways again and again to Manufacture Consent -because it works, because FEAR will make us accept the unacceptable in the name of a Safety that is in truth only threatened by ourselves, as we can't see the simple solution of creating a WORLD THAT WORKS FOR ALL, while we support a world that works for just some who don't give a flying fuck about you or the Life of billions of people.

If you care about changing this world into a Safe Place, we must see the obvious solution that would solve in a single swoop much of the grief of this world, we have to give to each other what we would like for ourselves, we have to stop looting and exploiting countries so that we can live a LifeStyle of our liking while some can't even have a Life and we have to push ourselves to see this world for what it has become and that includes our nature, where our self interest has created systems of Inequality and Abuse and so as we created havoc in the world, we the Creators, can create peace, we can stop the Fear, we can stop doing to others what we don't want done to us and return ourselves and the world with us into a for-giving place, and as we start our for-giving, what about making sure everyone has got a Life to start with, wouldn't that be a gazillion steps ahead from where we are now?

Then we'll see what kind of Humanity can be born into a world of support vs a cut throat world of survival and Fears.

Stand for the Life of All, for-Give Life to All and in the process, Get YourSelf to Life.

Day 341: From Feudalism to Capitalism - With the Aid of The Common Law

English Law and the Emergence of Capital

By capturing a greater share of the wealth of England, the growing mercantile class also captured a greater influence over the law of England. A common law designed primarily to protect the rights of feudal land ownership was wholly inadequate to the needs of a class whose goal was the accumulation or profit through trade rather than the -the protection of hereditary lands. What was needed were laws that would protect capital and the rights to its accumulation, insure a steady flow of profitable trade goods, and control the problems posed by a growing class of mobile urbanized laborers and artisans, no longer bound to the land, whose livelihoods were dependent upon the vagaries of both national and international trade. By the middle of the fifteenth century the English nobility, and even the crown, was firmly in debt to the mercantile class, and laws that would meet the needs of the powerful mercantile class began to emerge. 

As capital became more central, it increasingly enjoyed state protection in the form of criminal laws designed to punish those who interfered with what had come to be acceptable -forms of capital accumulation.

In sum, during the 300 years preceding the establishment of English colonies in North America, three important innovations were introduced into English law and English legal thought. 

First, law became an important ally of those seeking to maximize profit through capitalist market relations by defining many acts that disrupted the predictability of market relations as crimes, that is, as harms against the state, rather than as civil violations of contracts between individuals. 

Second, criminal law came to be seen as an appropriate tool for insuring an adequate supply of cheap labor, first for the agrarian economy and later for the developing industrial-mercantile economy of early capitalist England.  

Third, and perhaps most importantly for contemporary criminal law, members of the laboring class who turned to theft, violence, idleness, or other forms of deviance as an adaptation to the brutal conditions of their lives were defined as criminals. In so doing the English State absolved the emerging capitalists who profited greatly from the brutal conditions of working class life of all responsibility for the consequences of these conditions.

______________

And here is our in-your-face-truth, the system has always understood that the conditions of the working class are Brutal, The Law is the Military Arm of the System which is not meant to work for All, but just for some.

Some time ago I wrote a provocative article on Slavery asking  'Why did we abolish Slavery, again?', implying that it was a very efficient system for those that wanted to squeeze the Life out of some so they could make the best lives for themselves.
Someone replied that slavery was ineffective, the slave owners actually had to take care of their slaves, there were obligations in place, like food and shelter and, hear hear, medical care.

Cowperwood returns day after day to a primal scene of the lobster slowly dissecting the quicker but cornered squid, snatching a clawful of flesh whenever the squid drops its guard. Transfixed by this developing drama and its inexorable resolution, Cowperwood is both shocked and exhilarated, transformed into a proto-tycoon: “The incident . . . answered in a rough way that riddle which had been annoying him so much in the past: ‘How is life organized?’ Things lived on each other—that was it.” Theodore Dreiser’s 1912 novel The Financier

What we set up with Capitalism instead was far more effective, we found better ways to 'live on each other', our Slavery became Money and through Money and Debt most were enslaved to a make belief system of worthlessness, of less-ness and we made sure to write down our tradition and customs of Abuse, so we could keep them going, we legitimized them, more, we made them compulsory, abuse is now an organized compulsory trait of the world that we call Common Law.

What if we said Enough?
What if we woke up from our dream of less-ness to become Equal, to stand as Equals to Existence, standing as a point of self responsibility for ourselves and the rest of the world?
Can we even contemplate that?

If we can't is because we are brainwashed, we have been brainwashed into Inequality, everything that exists stands as a remnder that We are Not Equals, The Churches, The Palaces, the Pyramids, anything we praise and look up to is just another link in the chains that keep us bound to our less-ness.

Can we consider every other living being as having the same value that we want for ourselves, the same right to a Dignified Life, the same worth, what if we could?

That would be the moment when we Right our Wrongs, then we'll have the Right to Life back, as we give it to others, as we make sure no child goes hungry, no parent goes worried, no one is homeless or forced to live a life we are not willing to live.

It's either Heaven for All or Hell for All, because we can only live and be what we are willing to give to others, and unless we make sure that All have enough, we'll never have enough, Money will never take away the underlining sense that there is something terribly wrong with this world, and there is, it's US, We have for-gotten instead of for-given, we have for-gotten everything we could, because we believe there is no Law regulating our behavior, we con-fused ourselves with The Law, the One that Some Have Designed and then Wrote down to keep us in a Place that Works for Them, we entertained ourselves with the idea of being 'legit' just because we didn't break the 'code', ironic isn't it?
What if the Code we wrote down and defined as Law is Not Aligned with the Law of the Universe that regulates All Things, what if there was One Law, the one that Jesus told everyone, the One that Jesus lived, to Give As You Would Like to Receive.
Are we excused just because some are not living their for-giveness? Will they be for-gotten then, shouldn't they all be forgotten, shoudn't we all be forgotten if we have not lived for-giving, for-give-ness?

Review Your Judiciary System, there is no Right or Wrong, no Religion, no one more valuable than you, there is Only What is Best for All - The Law is just a testimony to our centuries of Abuse, it will be realigned to the Law of For-Giving and there is a lot of for-giving to do, just look around. It's Time.


Join us, the right to Life starts with a Living Income Guaranteed, because if Life is Not a Right for All, it will never be Right for You.

Day 339: Why the CommonWealth was Never the Common Good

To understand the power of the Empire, we have to look back into History and how acts of vile submission and violence ended up glorified into an Imperial Stance of Grandness vs an Obvious acknowledgement of Mere Abuse.

The first time the word CommonWealth was used was by Lord Rosbery during one of his trips to Australia

Does this fact of your being a nation … imply separation from the Empire? God forbid! There is no need for any nation, however great, leaving the Empire, because the Empire is a Commonwealth of Nations.

 Here is a brief portrait of Lord Rosbery, by one of his peers:

" He turned on his heel and walked away." The phrase sums up Lord Rosebery. He is always turning on his heel and walking away now from his friends, now from himself. He is as inconstant as the moon, unstable as water, whimsical as a butterfly. His path leads from nowhere to nowhere. He is like a man lost in the mist on the mountains and having no compass with which to guide his steps. He has all the gifts except the gift of being, able to apply them. Macaulay said of Byron that all the good fairies brought their offerings at his christening; but the one malignant fairy, uninvited, came and turned the gifts of the others to bitterness. And so with Lord Rosebery. He was endowed with all the elements of greatness; but the elements are not enough. They must be compounded into unity by that in-definable something, constant and purposeful, which we call character, and it is the quality of character which Lord Rosebery lacks. And lacking that he lacks all. His gifts are idle ornaments; his life a drama without a sequence and without a theme. 

Lord Rosbery had the gift of words and could see how to move both the Parliament and the masses as much as he was moved, from mood to mood, never stable, never seeking the Common Good of Mankind but just ways to shine in his Life and his career. He was a model of Self Interest and extended his Self Interest outside of himself, wanting to own the World but lacking the Character to make it Work for All.

So, he designed a word that was meant to Unite, not All, just those that were considering departing the Empire and thus The CommonWealth was the Empire's bribery in words, in empty promises, in the assurance that they would all benefit from their Protection aka Colonization and they needn't move away just because they had obtained the recognition of Nation-ship, the Empire never meant to grant Real Sovereignty to anyone, there was only one Sovereign, one alone to Reign Over and that was to be The Queen or The King of England, and so the Empire secured their place in the Minds of those who should have stood up for All, by promising a share of the Wealth for them, the CommonWealth.

And with accepting this promise of Lala Land the people of their protectorates/colonies accepted their Fate, an Ill Fate, that would extend into the decades and become ever more deceiving, transforming in-your-face Colonization of Land and people into more subtle forms of Ownership of People's Minds through Propaganda and a Debt System, where we ended up All Colonized to a Social and (Monetary) System designed to recreate the power of the Empire by means of Money vs the Means of Force, because it was cheaper, more profitable and it required way less effort, while meeting much less resistance, as we willingly made Money our God and the Sovereign of England, printed on many Currencies, the Power that runs our Minds -and the USA, their prolific offspring, the power that rules over EveryBody.

Welcome to the Commonwealth that was promised and never delivered, there was never in History an intent to design a world for the Common Good, We are the Common Goods ruled by the Common Law, a Law handed down to us by those that had gained their power illegally, immorally, through unspeakable acts of abuse, and so the Commoners, ended up with nothing, no rank, no title, no money, no rights, no choices, just the Hope, the great Bestseller of our Century, the Hope that they may one day eventually share in the CommonWealth and with that Hope in their hearts they willed themselves to be Subjects, waiting for a change that would never come, as the Plan was never Change, but the servitude of Men by the abdication of their Minds and themselves until they would sell out, and souled out we are -and screwed too, now a bunch of people own most of the resources of the World - and we basically have to suck it up.

The CommonWealth will come when All Lives will have the Same Value, as Life, until then there will be Injustice and Inequality, and the Lords will continue to lord it over us, because we said yes to the promise of the CommonWealth and the Hope that was given (it's Free!) vs what should have been given to All, A Dignified Life and a share in what this planet gives for everyone. Wake up!

Tomorrow a look at the Common Law that still rules over us to see how the Common Law is in fact a Cult, it's the tradition to lord it over others and how it became Dogma, command-ments, so that we may never question again, why and how we ended up with nothing while some enjoy the Lives of King on the shoulders of the rest of Humanity.

Stand for a World that works for All, Free Yourself, it's Time.

Day 330: Inflated Egos, Deflate Reality.

What came first, Capitalism or our Egos?

It must be our Egos, because without them we could have never conceived, nor would we have upheld a system where everything is designed and catered to allow us to feed and  inflate our  Self Image and the Idea of ourselves in Our Minds.

Think LifeStyles, you believe that you are the one wanting a specific lifestyle, but this is not true, millions of hours of work have gone into analyzing people and how they function so that specific lifestyle could be designed for them and then sold to them, there are even Lifestyles  designed for Unique people, Special People, UnlikeAnyoneElse People, Original People - you get the drift.

From the moment we are born there is someone selling to us the idea that bigger is better, this is how we end up Inflated, inflating ourselves because apparently what we are, who we are, is not good enough, ever.

One of my friend had a baby girl, they bought her Princess clothes from the moment she was born, little tiaras, magic wands, places in the best schools in the world, tuition for what she did not get in class, at 10 she would already throw tantrums when they did not fly business class and she would tell her friends that she was more than them, because her father told her that his convertible sport car was hers and she had just to wait to be 18, she could tell her friends she was more than them because of what she owned, her definition of herself was 'I am special' hence she would only be happy when 'special' was delivered to her.

Her parents smiled delighted when she would be more than others, until the day she told her mother that, in case of divorce she would stay with daddy, because 'he had a driver'.

By the age of 12 they took her to India, they took the luxury tour through it, even though India has a funny way to not allow anyone to not see its misery, its everywhere, it's so in your face that Hollywood decided to make a movie about it (The Millionaire) so we could inflate the point that SOME make it while in the background, all the horrors of the country are clearly shown -interestingly enough- as The Reason why this person finally Made It.

If you have not watched the movie, do, test for yourself how you can tune out from what is told there, that kids are stolen to be sent into begging, that they are blinded and maimed so that they will get more money than the next beggar because You will feel more compassion (or more guilt for having it so much better) and will give them more, sometimes it is their parents that will maim them to guarantee a future for them, don't shy away from this, that is what Love is in the face of Misery, that is the best kind of tuition they can give to their children, a place on the walking path, a chance to survive in this world -be the best beggar you can be - my son-.

When she came back from India and wrote about it, she wrote about all the beautiful colors, the lovely food they ate, the luxurious palaces she saw, and when her mother asked why she didn't write about the misery that haunted her for days, she replied that she simply did not want to. Simple as that.

Her Ego was already Big Enough to Delete The Physical Reality.

Of course this is not a fault of her own, her parents inflated her for their own Ego, at the time I was into Love and Light and Positive Thinking and told her that 'see, children naturally tend to float toward the good, it's us ruining them with asking them to focus on the negative, the bad', what a load of Crap.

It is because of Us that children are raised the way they are, it is because we pass on to them our own disease the 'I don't want to look' disease, least we may question our reality and our existence and see that we have a responsibility that we cannot shy away from.

Money is what we created and use to inflate ourselves, everything that caters to our Ego costs Money, all sorts of Egos are created in this world to sustain this system starting within the Family system, the ones that make it to the top are the Inflated Egos, they are the high flyers of this world, they call the Deflated Egos 'Poor Bastards' -and laugh. I once met a Fat Cat who used to refer to people that were below him in the food/money chain as 'Poor Bastards', it was his way to acknowledge them into reality and at the same time deflate them into a lesser position because of their lack of Money/Status/Position.

Any Ego is just an illusory creation, they are only the consequence of our upbringing and of our placement in the world, both are Equally damaging to Reality, the High Flyers because they have managed to get a hold of all resources or are in the process thereof, and the Deflated ones because they spend their lives seeking Inflation, so they may Fly High too, if not in Reality in their own Minds.

If we look at Spirituality, that would be the Free Ride for the Poor Bastards of this existence -not talking about the Poorest Bastards who are the only one confined into the lower realms of reality, from which they don't even have the choice to leave for a break, because their conditions of hunger, or worry, or fear for the future keep them tightly anchored into the Physical Reality-, through Spirituality we can inflate ourselves at no cost, we can make up Guides and Angels, we can say we talk to Jesus and be Special, all those Mind delusions come Free of Charge and we can get our High Flyer status and join-in into the Higher level of our Collective DeMentia.

We have a huge problem on this Planet, while Life is for Sale, we buy Lifestyles, we seem satisfied with thinking up better lives vs make better lives for ourselves and everyone, if we would be brave enough to look at reality for what it is, without inflating the good -and mostly imaginary- bits about it, we could come to a common solution, then instead of catering to the rich Monopoly Game of this  Planet we could support a system of Change for All, that would start with a BIG step, a Living Income Guaranteed, because Reality exists beyond our Inflation and beyond our desire to inflate it, and it ain't going anywhere either, We are the ones that will have to change it.

If we just opened our eyes we could see it in all its horror, but horror doesn't fly High, this is why we embrace our PeterPan-ish existences in which we rather inflate our Minds and Egos than realize that we are not the worthless humans we perceive we are in and as the Physical, we have just never been Here, it's a place to explore and become familiar with, then as we acclimatize to what Reality really is, stop judging it as 'negative and bad' but just look at what is, we can face the problems at hand and as Equals decide to Give to Each Others what we would like for ourselves, a Decent Life, free from Fear and Inflation.

It's possible, it starts with a Living Income Guaranteed, it will guarantee the Right to Life to All, then we can stop pretending to be more in fear of being not enough to make it in this world.

Join us, a better world is waiting for All, you are one of the missing pieces, Dear Poor Bastard.
