FROM WHAT IS TO WHAT OUGHT

"We should transcend from what is to what ought"
Abraham

What is democracy all about if it isn't life support oriented?
What should we be voting for in a referendum society?
Where are we headed in our pyramid scheme economy-life support system?


Some of you may have seen some of this but didn't see it
exactly as a solution to a problem you didn't know existed and was
kept from you by a status quo you never suspected was doing you in..
So I present the "problem" and the "solution" in parable so to speak.
This is a snip from my column Raleigh's op-ed 31095 on igc:p.news
and igc:p.news.discuss and was written for the sustainable development
list.


A PARABLE OF COMING ATTRACTIONS


PLANET EARTH INC. 2010 Owned and operated by Rollerball INC
a group of eleven (for now) battle scarred pirateer-stockholder-
arbitrageurs who have managed to swindle every body on the planet out
of their fare share ie. tantamount to evicting the unborn. Peace-freedom is
nothing left to rob. Privatization rent a world ie. work for them for food
the ultimate extortion.
A sign hanging in space for all to see as well as on their temples to
MAMMON(religion devoted to economic and social Darwinism)
saying "The meek be dammed" with a sub title displaying their motto:
"Never give a sucker an even break".

What you just read is an eagle eye view(the buzzard on the dollar
bill) of what is in store for those of you who didn't see the movie
Rollerball produced by group of artists who could translate wall graffiti
and starring John Housman..

SBEMLTECC(Sucker Born Every Minute Let Them Eat Cake Crowd )
vs. KISS-TECH (KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID) life support technology
for the destiny deprived ala Gandhi.)

What follows is the answer to some familiar questions: When will we
ever learn? And How long does man have to live before he is allowed
to be free?

GAIA 2010

The planet of the land of the unborn(the meek) has been
returned to it's rightful stewards. After a period of electronic advise
and consent to study the alternatives the citizens then voted to empower
their progeny. The planet was renamed GAIA by it's ten billion citizens
who live in harmony with each other operating the planet as a global
municipality in virtual reality ie. HOME RULE literally.
Their global village anthem "This Land is your land, This land is my
land, This land is made for you and me" became the mantra for change and
the verbal vote. It triumphed over the "bombs in air" "land of our
ancestors" "greed is great" type diversions.
Extortion for life support by a parasitic class has been overcome
with some simple clone of Earth back to the future technology ie.
KISStech. The citizens now produce their own food which was the key
to eliminating ruthless cartel dominion over the planet ie. eliminating
cash crop agriculture along with the meat diet freed up major portions
of the planet for the "equal opportunity for all" which they voted for.
Two billion or so self sufficient households in small villages
provisioning themselves with appropriate technology did the trick
ie. clone of Earth technology. They live, work and provide their
nutrition on the same acre or so of ground they live on ala Waltons,
shrinking mankind's footprint from thirty five acres per family to one acre
eliminating the five city system. Ten billion people provisioning
themselves with the highest standard of living ever on what amounts to
less land then the lower forty eight united states.
There is no outside supply side entity per say only sharing-
bartering with their fellow villagers(support group) and within their
bioregion. The local employment and trading systems are full enjoyment
economies of scale. Old Sturbrige Village in the Hydrogen economy.
The Hydrogen Economy assembled on the Internet in the eighties
and early nineties, pushed for the Mike Mulligan Space Shuttle in the
basement collection of already researched NASA technologies ie. the
heater cooler electric generating sewerage trash and garbage pyrolyzing
water recovery unit made possible the solar Hydrogen town gas
infrastructure in a box.
One interactive HYDROGEN pipe to the structure
provided the amenities ie. the Hydrogen by product was the water supply--
- while, multitasking energy for heating and cooling , cogenerating
electricity on site, providing motor fuel and electrolyzing(turning water
exhaust back to Hydrogen) the Hydrogen fuel cell motor in the wheel
electric transport, and the destructive distillation of sewerage trash and
garbage.
Not having to be near developed services(especially water and
sewerage perks and facilities) reduced the value of land and made
almost any land livable. The taxes-profit saving from not having to
replace, install or maintain the five part infrastructure, land fills,
skyfills, purification works, and the piping and chlorine was redirected.
The treadmill time(wages $10K per citizen) of the planet's citizens
went to retrofit the existing structure stock to solar Hydrogen town gas
and the "built into the planet" permanent biosphere program to house and
feed all on Earth.. The shoes of the fisherman exercise finally
materialized.
There is no competition for life support, they provide it
themselves in a guaranteed situation that can't be taken away
and requires no money(trade beads) per say to maintain it ie. taxes,
outside infrastructure or parasitics. The Virtual reality controlled
government is manned by a year of probono service for all and devoted
to these aims.
By having the ability to nourish body, mind and soul without the
output of energy wasted on the usury treadmill, transcendence is
possible. Freedom is nothing left to loose. True citizen Emancipation is
the product of this synergy.
This may sound like some utopian nonsense at first glance but
when you strip the can't profit if we don't sell em anything reactionary
negativity these truths are self evident.
The Waltons on television is a generic example of this exercise
starting with the basics "you" Man's Inner Nature and Development .

see. THE HYDROGEN ECONOMY igc:energy.news it will guide
you through the discussion and other postings in our kickstarting a dead
planet think tank so to speak.
The Waltons on television was a ten year effort (training videos)
to demonstrate low ground pressure life support as an alternative to
destiny deprivation (poverty) on one hand and mindless opulence on
the other ie. part of our owner's manual synergy. Most people when
asked will admit that they could settle for that life style ie. three
generations under one roof as the ultimate conservation exercise.
Live, learn, work, produce your own food on
the same acre or so you live on etc. is a reality with Permaculture,
Fukuoka and countless old folks who still know how. And without the
supply side dominance(Hegemony of Parasitism) with all the
games(Man-opoly). Life is for "BEING" not for creating wealth mostly
for others. You should not have to think of your self as a worker, trade
name or slave designation or whatever, just yourself ie. a citizen of the
universe who has a right to be here.

If you want to be taken seriously, when talking about
development, by the increasingly aware population of the planet you
need to start with simple logic: If our so called civilized society
occupies seven acres per person and five cities occupied for part of a day
or season per group for their opulence and all the arable land on Earth
is being used or already ruined and two thirds of the people on
earth(two thirds undeveloped world) have nothing at this point, how
can we share our standard of living on an equal footing with the rest
of the Earth's population? It would take about five or six more
planets at the current population. with our captive consumer supply side
provisioning system. And furthermore almost four new citizens a
second who have a right to be here will expect their prophetic
inheritance. USDA, Pimentel et.al., WWI Brown et.al. see Raleigh's
OPED 3695 igc:pnews
So much for the big lie. Kind of puts trickle down-up supply
side economics on the same level as the Easter bunny, SantaClaus and
vaporware. As Hitler said a big lie is easier to flack than a small one
and a repetitive lie is history if we let it happen. Take the overview and
spread it around there isn't much else. Ask the question: Is it
sustainable development or sustainable life support you are really
trying to define?
