The Blairing Truth

Beat from the street

Livin for the pleasure

Living for the Pleasure

If the end truly does justify the means, then surely start of as you mean to end up has equal sway. How can an unjust, uncaring and inept government, make a paradise, a utopia for our generations yet to be born. Are we really a nation of back biters, or armchair critics, saddled with a belligerent workforce. Yet can it be that the will of the peoples opposition manifest in these ways and means is simply the unconscious expression of dissent, as passive as working to rule, or holding people to task or contractual agreements, just plain old making them live up to their word for a change.

They never learn, so have obviously never experienced rough justice before. Its time the shoe was on the other foot now the reigns are back in the consensus’s hands. The people of this nation have grown up hearing about the tabloid stories of lack of honor in the so called honorable elite, seeing their present lack of credibility in the public eye, and the effect limits the height that any man can seek to aspire to, to stop just any old thing going around so it wont come back to haunt you. We all need good examples in our minds collective eye.

Its time that the silent majority had a voice again in a world of so many mixed, ideals and disenfranchising games from the logic elite. Wouldn’t it be good to hear from people that are happy together and do have a good life, instead of the dysfunctional stereo types we currently see on TV, spouses that are in love and do genuinely care for each other not like the celebrity break ups and foul ups that are in the every day tattlers.

Instead of letting logic come up with solutions that are presupposed thinking to control outcome, find the forms that are working and build the logic around them to sustain them like propping up the tomatoes give them something to lean on, for they need to take breaks, that’s where guidance and experience will have its most formative effect.

Emotion driven people are using an inferior power source that is prone to great shifts and swings, the old highs and lows of life you might say, find one that is in the fever of their passion and the heavens are the limits of imagination. That’s why they are called stars.

Then the weighing and measuring is put into place and once repeatability is established and comes into play, stability is first formed and then those mythical green shoots will appear, still need someone to plant it in person then to tend to its environment till the blossoming of a promising future. Mind how you go, next one in line. 

Logic still likes making queues, and causing backlogs and blockages, might just be the universes way of pruning off wrong turns in the labyrinth of life.

The universal multiplier should be seeded with the negative state, only to produce a negative outcome, place a positive start into the universal resurrector to raise the self worth of the undermined individual. Move along sunny next in line please. Life is a busy rush for the short lived and a lengthy stroll for the patient and willing soul.

A Pole of Ticks

Click here pol-eh-tics to hear file

  

What is this thing called ‘pol-ah-tics’

That dishes the dirt but canny take its licks

That scurries to a quiet booth to secretly say

Which barking dug, can have its way?

 

In the hidden game behind all these ties

Canny see the truth for hearing all the lies

They can do what they do because of yer proxy

The best they made, dissatisfied like poxy

 

Next ballot, openly draw a cross from corner to corner

In open view, shout first in line, next up keeps the order

Number one coming through, who’ll be number two

We’ve put up with fools, and paid all hells dues

 

These headless chickens just don’t know what to do

They abuse all the rights they stole form you

To wrest back from the thief our right to choose

To much misdirection from the drugs, and cheep booze

 

In a rigged game your only right is to refuse

They can only dae worse, so we’ve nothing to loose

To wrest back from the thief our right to choose

Paid by your earnings, and stolen right from the tank

Ye canny blame them, there’s just yersel tae thank

Imagine hiring cheats to run a bank

 

Before it’s begun this revolutions won

By the man in the street, the power of one

The shortsighted fool just cant see very far

Done to death what binds love to war

 

Cheat in one and life steals from the other

For the wages of sin why do you bother

Don’t bleat love when it’s just some of the other

Learn to treat your enemy better than your brother

 

Like dealing wi an unruly petty we tyke

Oy you get on yer bike

Time to make them all take a hike

Efter aw they‘ve had their third strike

Right Said Fred

If the public opinion as relayed by the gutter press is that we are all indignant and something should be done about Fred the Shred then, this clueless political army might just give itself new laws to hound anyone that takes and makes themselves rich in a ‘Free Market Economy’, but that is not the only thing to worry about.

This government is representative of only one in five of the voting populace, if it had been elected that is. The powers that they are tempting public opinion to give them is nothing short of totalitarianism. What Fred said and what Fred did is immoral, but under the terms of our laws, these are the ones that we all elected someone to implement for us and to be custodian and warrant officer of, he has done nothing illegal and therefore he is off Scott Free, and we just have to shut the gate until the horse is replaced.

This minority Government must not be allowed to give itself any new executive powers, that will be the unenviable position for a duly elected government. This Fred is not to sexy for his shirt, and he is against the tide of public opinion and Joe public will trip him up at every turn as and where he crosses their paths, but the law is an ass and allowed the thieves into the bank vault, in the first place and they will still not reign in what is still going on in the banking sector at this moment in time, and they all claim to be powerless to stop the future repetition of the same sort of self serving types that treated the money in the banks as their own, and never paid a penny more than they had to get away with it.

This is a much more worth wile target and is within the stated powers of the governmental body to do something about, but they claim they are tied and bound by the rules of the game and not the laws of the land, this looking for a scapegoat to use public opinion to change laws is the first steps towards a police state, or military law.

The kind of thing you would expect from China or Putin’s gang, we are still a free state and we need to reign in the powers that be, and we have a tough enough task ahead in cleaning out the banking and financial sectors. After all we are not ruled by a communist regime, there is no red flag flying over number 10 now is there?

Time to reign in the dogs and keep them short of cash by keeping the least we have to in the Banks, the less they have to play with the less the can steal from us, or the less they can lose in the gambling pens and the less bonuses they can allocate to themselves for time and effort invested, instead of for meeting results deadlines of targets like any other business does.

They remind me of the small business man that starts his business up and is whacked with large tax bills for taking to big a pay, so he devises a bonus scheme to get around the limitations of corporate law and related earnings. This loophole is the first refuge of the small entrepreneur, the mindset that runs on minimalism for maximum returns, that is the dream or delusion they bought into. The least they have to for the best returns set of individual is going to take his pay for his effort and time regardless of the results because he feels he must. It is morally reprehensible but under law and jurisprudence and the states backing of the small business ethos that were all schooled in the laws of abundance as prescribed by the guru tosh of the seventies and the eighties, the mantras of the acolytes of the get rich while you dream school of thought.

If governments need advisors and help in any area it is the area of effective outomes instead of budget limitations vs time effort and energy. The mindset they are dealing with should be known, good psychological profiling of the various and divergent mindsets and the disciplines and philosophies that they are schooled by, so for psychologists with a good philosophical understanding of their doctrines is an absolute must, and that’s just for starters. Don’t however begin to believe the prose and high minded views of an abstract philosopher, just a philosophical historian and profiler will do, for the pragmatic needs of a good governor.

The progressions and escalations that the week willed and the ‘hard done by types’ are the same for all of us, the more you have the more you want, why settle for a lamb when you can have a whole sheep to sell. Just when is enough, enough,

The full power of a well adjusted life is it carries only what it needs, take no more than is enough and some for later, ensure the survival of the support group leave enough for a seed crop and distribute the surplus, for the state of well being of the whole. Hoarding is an illness born of neurosis and fear. In a world where there are no guarantees we all have to draw our own conclusions, make our own rules and abide by the collective for mutual growth and well being while keeping mind body and soul together.

No man is an Island and persecuting the last one through the closing gate is an act of vengeance, let Joe public strip Fred to the bone it will be like piranha in a slowed down or prolonged feeding frenzy rather than one single act of vengeance.

So throw your own rotting veg as Fred hangs in the stocks and we can all give the idiot pelters anything else is a blood letting that we are all above, or at least I hope we are.

Hoo Heave Hoo, back to the salt mines comrade.

The Eden Chronicles

It was just another day in paradise, while the schizophrenic Lilith was in her night time guise of Eve, that the first seeds of destruction were sown, she really resented being created as a companion for the first man. After all he had been gods first creation that was neither animal, vegetable, fish or fowl. This perfection was his dominion and she was just the side kick. This disguise of ‘another’ was to hide herself from gods infinite sight, because there were times when she played, that she was unaware of gods presence and in her naiveté she though that if she was unaware of the holy presence then he must be totally focused on something else or the role she had played was hiding her from his omnipresence.

Lilith had though long and hard about the fruit of the Tree Of Knowledge, and it seemed to her that the fruit had to be understanding, if not enlightenment. She though about Adam and how he was totally obedient to God and it annoyed her no end that the days itinerary was taken up by gods instruction in life and all of its ways, then by Adam relating the truths to her and how she was always questioning and trying to learn more. So it was only a matter of time that the little wench had had enough. Then her agile mind turned to scheming.

In her daytime aspect of Lilith she spent her time when she wasn’t just amusing herself, in contemplation while Adam was off being enlightened by God. The green embers were fanned by the constant leadership and tasks set for her by Adam, the resentment and brooding began to develop a plan to teach Adam just what it was like to always have to play second fiddle to someone else’s tune, as if he didn’t know dancing to gods tune already.

So if the tree of life is known by the consumption of a complete fruit it would stand to reason that she would have to eat a whole fruit from the Tree of Knowledge and she would achieve instant enlightenment, she would never again play dumb to Adams brilliance, for she would just look and know in an act of divination.

So she had to concoct a story that Adam would believe and would follow her deed without hesitation, so for a few seasons she mentioned a serpent and how its malice frightened her and how it was trying to seduce her from the order of god. Until she had grown the courage necessary to eat the fruit against gods will, and could still carry out the pretence that would trick Adam into becoming the dupe to her ploy.

When the fateful day arrived and she was certain that as Lilith, she was safe from his sight and while Adam was receiving instruction, she made her way to the tree and took the two fruits from it. She then bit into the first fruit and felt the insights growing, she looked at the grass and knew its purpose and cycles from seed to seeding, the birds of the air and their light bone structure that enabled them to ride the winds to soar and fly, and the plants by the river had a predilection for a moist environment, while the arid plantd conserved water and stored it for droughts. This she knew with just a glance and from just one bite, then it struck her that if she ate the whole of the other fruit minus one bite she would achieve complete understanding and be at the base of the godhood, but if she gave Adam the bitten fruit and he ate it all she would be able to steal a little ahead of him at every thing and she would in fact become the fount of all knowledge and wisdom. So maybe Adam would spend more time with her than with god.

In her new found wisdom and under the deceitful disguise of Eve, Lilith ate the second fruit waiting until knowledge and understanding grew with each bite until she decided that she would just simply know when she had eaten a whole fruit and would just discard the remains into the river where it would either sink from sight or be carried away by the body of moving water.

When she was satisfied with her actions and the knowing was becoming perception balanced with insight and understanding of all things was finally hers, she thought how wonderful this fruit was and it must truly be the food of a god, but that was why god told them to never eat it, it was his only sustinance. The tree only ever bore two fruits at a time and now they were missing and when god went to harvest the crop he would know.

So for the final act Lilith as Eve would turn on her beauty and vulnerability to pull at Adams conscience and tug his heart strings, as her new found wisdom told her that they would, now to tell Adam that she had been duped by the serpent and that she would be thrown out of Eden when god found out about her sin, the serpent was to blame and would be the perfect scapegoat for her trusting spouse.

When Adam returned she was well prepared and began her ploy, under an act of utter despair and wretched distress she pitched her story, Adam was beside himself knowing that it was just a matter of time before god knew by the absence of the fruit, that he had been betrayed. Adam took the bitten fruit and assumed that she had only taken one bite, and not at all as Lilith had surmised, and as she was waiting with bated breath to see if he would capitulate, his pacing stopped and he swiftly bit into the fruit and then threw the remains into the river in one swift contemptuous act, it was tough to swallow and stuck in his throat and caused a lump to appear that to this day is called the Adams Apple, apple as in Adam’s ‘fruit’. Tears and regret and anguish still choke the throat because this act has affected the larynx of men.

Lilith was beside herself internally because she knew that it would now take Adam many years of learning from trial and error, to ever achieve her state of enlightenment, and that she would suffer the length of eternity at his side with greater knowledge while he crawled out of ignorance the hard way. She would now become the guardian of his little bit of knowledge, to learn to steer the course for both of them as it was only a matter of a little while before god found them and he would know the truth on sight.

God found them at the break of the next day and he commanded them to leave Eden, he posted four Angels at the gates of paradise and has never spoken again to man, or any of the agencies of man.

The only way back into paradise is earned and not by working for mammon, but working on the self. The immortal soul creates our characters and then places them on the wheel of life which will separate the wheat from the chaff, building the character that is equal to paradise is a task for more than one generation on the wheel, some gifted souls only need the single life and ascend in a single pass, they are usually workers for the light. So as the soul makes us we cannot ever sell it as we are a product of it. The souls task is to build a character that is fit to dwell in paradise, and each and every one of us is an experiment in real time.

God wrote no book, built no churches and never preached a word ever. Christ never wrote a book, built a church or preached the word. Even. Gurus don’t write but instruct or teach.

The instruments of mans understanding are language, writing and laterally moving images and sound. Before you disagree, just answer one simple question. Which language is the word written in? bearing in mind that it was used by god for creation, and god has never used the word again, and the tower of Babel came much after mans eviction from paradise. Just Babbling on till you get the message.

A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing, the true steps to enlightenment are all small and sure, there is no leaping ahead, there is no ‘fast root’ or ‘froot’ that will give you instant wisdom and clear insight and great perception. Woman will either be honest or duplicitous as their nature decides but all will be the crucible for life until the immortal soul is again realised when the final generation of man is born into being. While men will continue to lean towards their base nature until they get their minds out of the gutter. This should continue until the day when we finally stop bullying each other and learn acceptance and tolerance and adopt humanitarian rules to live by instead of secular beliefs like politics and religion, who’s favourite pastimes are war and elitism, as history shows only too well.

So given how things still are and how wars, famine, disease and death stalks the sons of Adam and the daughters of Eve, it looks a mighty long way to the end of eternity from here, at about half past Hades, give or take a millennia or two.

Everything else is a lie to manipulate the masses.

But have a merry XMass all the same.

3 Mobile Broadband

What you need to know before you pay and go. Before you go and reach for that last little stocking filler for you family IT junkie. Watch what you get yourself into.

 

The well publicised 3 Mobile broadband is trading under a false remit. Namely that it calls its mobile modem a broadband. Well in my area the fastest connection I have ever had is 153 kbps, that’s just slightly less than three times the speed of a 56k modem. The average speed I get is between 14 kbps and 19 kbps that’s about the speed of an old 14.4 modem. So why does it advertise megabits per second speed when it cannot deliver them.

 

The other tricky thing is when you are setting up the account you cannot purchase mobile broadband time its just your average mobile topup, that before you connect to the sight must be converted to extras on the www.my3.com site if you don’t put in more credit than the service amount you will find that you will be charged at £1 per 1 mb, so don’t watch yourself.

 

Don’t phone the help line as it is charged at premium rates and is dealt with by an Asian taskforce and the English and diction can be a little tricky and if you lose the rag they will keep you on the line with the old gag. ‘Hello sorry can’t hear you’. ‘Your phone must be faulty’ and this will be repeated until you get the message and hang up to save paying for nothing.

 

So you have been warned

 

Have a good holiday

Going Nuts

The N.U.T. has ordained a course of action that will bring about what, did anyone actually sit down and think about the whole picture. First of all how popular are teachers, what sort of public response can they expect, just what is their public profile. The thin blue line recently stretched its way across London to deliver a statement to the disgruntled. The statement was no matter how disgruntled you are make a peaceful demonstration, and it didn’t exactly go unnoticed that they were striking illegally, breaking the laws they are said to uphold. Makes you wonder why they police in fighting gear, could it be for their heavy handed approach when faced with emotional outbursts they almost always react with force. Now if firemen could strike and not get much of a public response what sort of appeal can the nuts really expect, is that more to do with the hardships that people not in the public sector are facing poor conditions bad hours and low pays, public concern about mortgages, food prices, rising power prices. Do they have a hope in hell you might ask. And lastly is our education system working, can teachers actually make a difference. Some people fall right through the system and have to complete their education after leaving school, like myself.

 

Grangemouth’s strangle hold on the petrol situation is reason taken to the extreme, can anybody in the world today expect to guarantee a retirement plan that is employer paid. Is it more realistic to expect us to take some of the responsibility for our own provision. After all they either take it out of our pay like the good old nanny state used to, or we make some endowment provisions for ourselves. But with the proven track record of policy providers that still advertise with the classic disclaimer in the small print ‘investments can go down as well as up’ where payouts are not reaching expectations, and investment houses are still making profits is still a scandal that is waiting to hit the media wall, if anyone can actually read the writing on it, it doesn’t make for entertaining or even encouraging reading.

 

In a fast changing world environment where staple foods are becoming a world concern. The growing debate about food provision versus biofuels land management issues is now being beefed up by the vegetarian argument that the land that is used to provide one meat eaters staples could be better used to provide the estimated extra nineteen other people in the world with the basic provisions for life. Then the mad scientists claim that food has an influence on conception is just another display of unrealistic logic making all the wrong connections and coming up with speculation instead of facts. Wish they would just for once do a study that doesn’t get rigged at the sources (fixed and predetermined inputs), and only end up promoting a product, after all just how many cereal providers are there in the world. Doesn’t it make you wonder who would commission such a report.

 

Are the NUT’s who want a better pay deal and the power hungry grabbers shutting down a plant, who are doing so on the principle of their retirement provision today just another symptom of a sick and decaying (deck-a-dent) society. Are the lunatics just simply trying to take over the asylum. How can holding the employers who are providers of such a crucial lubricant in societies list of necessary ingredients, ever hope to endear themselves to us, who can only dream of having one job that pays that much, who don’t have to job share, or make up the differences by taking a second part time top up. Power and power struggles are historically bad for the fabric of our systems essential framework. Are we all witnessing the end of a way of life. Just when the world stage declares a global food shortage, given our nature and history isn’t that just going to start a scrabble for the must haves, I am ashamed to say that the fat culture of the west may look like its got it all, while the levels of contentment that the thin east is said to produce are just fuelling the fires of the mirage that the grass is greener.

 

When an employer decides a pay structure, giving too high a salary will mean a greater amount of direct taxing on the employee, so from an existing pay structure most employers put extras in the package, like health care, car, phone and even gym memberships at discounts are not outside the range of some employers. His is done so that more benefits can actually be delivered to the worker to ensure a degree of loyalty, as well as inspiring a better contentment level to keep the fickle emotions content with their lot, in a high pressure demanding environment.

 

Third world countries can now afford to pay for food instead of starving, and that will naturally push up prices, but scaremongering from the media propaganda machine that food is scarce, will only ignite a wave of needless overbuying in this hemisphere. The likely hood of a better distribution over the globe is more likely if these rumour mills were stopped in their relentless grind of churning out propaganda designed to keep retailers like Tescos in the highest grosser of income and cash transaction bracket in the land, so who will benefit and can this chain of disasters really be the last link in the. One in eight of the pounds that are spent in Britain today is a Tesco pound.

 

The fact that everyone is going to have to cut back and get leaner in their spending and trim their expectation back to a more realistic view of the way things are for the hard pressed and downtrodden of the world, is just another of life’s little ironies manifesting in the main stream consciousness. The  neurotic need of the public sector workers wishes for cast iron guarantees flies in the face of the living and working conditions of the workforce that is outside of this traditional umbrella of state provided security. Can we really afford to molly coddle the elite few that are the central core of a crumbling foundation that was laid down so many generations ago, and in this fast paced and quickly changing environment of the modern day world are we really getting good value for money. Flying this flag may just end up becoming a red flag to a bull. The signs of the times may well be summarised by the ‘you tube’ video of the water buffalo that turned the panics tide and drove of the predators to get their calf back. We really did witness (twenty two million viewers) the tide turning and turning point revolved around water, the sacrificial calf was saved where as traditionally the herd would have cut their losses and trudged the extra miles to the next safe watering hole.

 

The big issues of the modern age all now revolve around the staple provisions for life, food, water and shelter and these are the core issues in the need for better pay and a more sustainable provision. But to expect guarantees in this mad world is just nuts. I for one have no sympathy for people that already have a good level of income trying to hold the general public purse to ransom because of rampant insecurities. Welcome to the real world.

The Scribbling on the Wall

Well look like another point of the African human good citizens of the world register. It seems that they cant even hold an honest election let alone live in peace with their neighbours. The fact that one man can hack another to death with a machete, just because the other mans views on politics are different, how can they be relied on to live in peace in a multi racial, multi political and multi faith society. I think it just goes to prove that the backwater that is Africa is still to immature or inexperienced, in the social conformity’s of tolerance and integration.

The tribal view of the man up river is if the viewers life is harsh then the bad people up river, pee in the river and worse and let it foul the downstream flow of water. The common basic allowance for live and let live, diversity is the profusion of the life force in action.

As for the delusion that we can all live in peace with each other and build a fairer society is being knocked daily, just look at the hedge fund managers that set up bad credit, and then repackaged the bad deals and moved them on at a profit (sows ears and silk purses) then hopped out of the rat race to the idyllic tropical resorts, still at the moment they only have each other for company, might be a good case in point for a fly on the wall view of the fraudulent salesmen. Still the profits were huge and the wake of misery that they have left behind will be decades in putting right.

The banks have closed the doors as they now realise that if they cannot tell the good guys from the bad ones, and they recruited them themselves to fight fire with fire, the bull pit strategies still apply in their thinking practices. The world wide lack of confidence in the financial houses of the world will be the undermining process that will topple great institutions by undermining the very foundations of the fabric of our financial world.

 There are not enough forces in the world to enforce payment on defaulted debts. Jails are already at overstuffed proportions and the police and armed forces are all standing by and watching the state, allow the hedge fund managers waltz of with trillions of pounds of crisis generated debt because, they re-packaged the dubious debs from high risk regions and fudged the details to sell them on to people that are hard pressed and have a tendency to believe that they are safe with their own. Get away with fraudulently selling known high risk investments as sure fire returns.

Is it really a case of buyer beware, or can we now expect the levelling of world debt, the business practices and responsibilities all being brought under better legislation, or it will only be another five years till we are in the same mess again. Without a business charter of agreed practices for the industry and the legal power to bring to heel those that undermine the system to its potential collapse. It will just simply be a case that those that get away with it will continue to and those that are left carrying the can is us. And the system is aiding and abetting crooks and penalising its own support mechanism. Just another average day in the lunatic asylum.

Sorry but in a world where monks, who are seen as the embodyment of world wide peace emissaries are beaten and brutalised or murdered by a ruthless regime, while on the side lines the so called defenders of injustice that ran into an oil rich state to liberate its people, cant or wont bring pressure to bear if the brutaliser is to big, or there is no incentive or returns to be had.

Or am I just to cynical.

Working Rules

The very idea that the state thinks that we are all its property and that we are only entitled to the human rights that they say we can have was once again added to the state erosion bill of up you little plebs we rule you and that’s that, so shut it or we will sent the boys around and you will have a kicking either in the pocket or in the place you live.

This was achieved by that blatant bellows of the bullish brown when he informed us that our right to our body only lasts as long as we are alive. The minute we are departed its theirs to use as a resource as they see fit.

Well in these days of diminishing food resources, and this is reflected in the rising cost in the supermarket. The next step for her oberstumbangfhurer is that all bodily residue will be used a s a source of nourishment for the remaining living beings and that is an order, you will be forced to accede in the face of the relentless bureaucratic machine mentality that holds nothing in life as sacred.

Well we are all forced to work in a system that holds out no hope for successful living, all the money you make will be drained from your sticky hands by the system, first for the abode that is never unkempt to a descent level, then the food and not to forget the recent Npower bid for world domination. In their most recent statement they are the power and you will pay for it.

This will force the poor who are the only people who do without when things get tough, to further tighten the already tightened belts even further. Isn’t it funny that the people with money always indulge themselves and don’t know the meaning of restraint and doing without. Always manage to still provide for every kind of indulgence that makes them the consumerism’s delight.

As we all know by now the government. Those that like to lord it over anyone that they see as inferior or beneath their notice. Are supposed to be our representatives and our spokes people for our rights and needs. In the face of the relentless machine as it grinds along crushing anything beneath its notice. Have shown in recent years that they are not the finest of our kind, they are not the honourable gentlemen that they like to call themselves. They are not the worthy successors of the accolade of the cream of the crop of humanity.

So I say get yer paws aff my rights or I will wage a war against you to your inevitable destruction, in the hearts and minds of the worlds populace. Politics already has a bad name, no one in my circle of acquaintance would trust a politician or a councilor as far as they could chuck them.

Now what does that tell us about the nature of the beast. Time for a meat fest chuck another tician on the barby or spit roast a liar today.

Obviously I have trying to quit smoking, am badly in need of a drink. and need to get out more. Not to mention it has been quite some time since I last ………….. took a chill pill.

False Idles

In this modern and progressive age, we are all show what to desire, what to wear, what to aspire to and how to be by the ever-present barrage of misinformation as delivered by the media channels. The present shift by the consensus of thinking people away from the tailored messages, from the propaganda biased channels and papers through the medium of the unnoticeable internet, in blogs and sound and vision bytes. The mixed messages and ground level reporting that is rapidly evolving into the modern information expressway, reflecting true public opinion instead of some media hype seem to have the bit between its teeth as it takes a chunk out of the current trends and thinking patterns of formative thinkers everywhere. Twenty two million people worldwide have chosen to view the buffalo turning the oppressors tide. Is the shoe now firmly on the other foot and are the old guard oppressors of the post cold war era about to be washed away in the turning tide of the new age children of tomorrow’s assertion as they find their voice and can now apply it communally without the fear of reprisals from the old guard order as it goes through its death throes in the public domain. Some wag somewhere gave an innocuous slogan of ‘Vote for Change’ whatever that means to the struggling and diminishing old guard new age reformationists that swear they are not like their predecessors. Yet they immediately went into the old tradition of back biting and mud slinging before the ink was even dry on the placards. This animal cannot change its spots for they traditionally reinvent themselves in opposition and level their attack using the old established techniques of the old fossils and old guard. The wind of change that is clearly blowing through the old corridors of power, the new distrust of banks and capitalism, and the weary tragedies of the oppressed minorities that have traditionally been left to foot the bill from the sweeping changes from the handover of power as each re-resurrected ‘phoenix’ ascends from the ashes of its last defeat is now being treated with the contempt it deserves. Political structure the world over have been finally seen for the sham that they really are. Financial institutions (remarkably prison-like description for the debtors paradise) are all feeling the pinch as so called financial investors and pensions investors are being given a wide berth because their slogan, ‘Investments can go down as well as up’ are now proving that in the majority they will defiantly go down and return no investments and, the moral undercurrent of this is if you were not so greedy in the first place and chose to gamble then you would still have your original investment capital.

It is after all just capital if you have money in the first place. Letting someone you don’t know gamble it for you is a bit like taking your hard earned and scrimped to achieve family pile, and randomly going into a betting office and asking a addicted gambler who is the luckiest punter in the room and then saying you will give them a percentage if they invest it for you as they were recommended by the betting shop barfly. A bit like asking the lion how to feed it isn’t it when its laid out like that. But the film about the runaway failure of the high flying investor being given his head really brings the whole point into perspective doesn’t it.

So just how lucky do you feel and how good are you at guessing (guessing right a few times in a row is called predicting) what will happen next. Try watching Harry Hills what happens next clips to test your new found ability before waging any bets on outcomes. Funny how most of us can do it reasonably well when no risk is involved, but add the cash to the equation and then you don’t have to guess what happens next, we already know the cold hard facts of life.An old saying that was common in my youth was, ‘the shilling (five new pence to all the kids out there) in my pocket means I’m better of than if its in someone else’s pocket’, that will be the bird in the hand to all you speculators. The saying you have to speculate to accumulate is another bum steer. Investing your hard earned in a cash turnover business that relies on your energies has more chance of success than any lazy enterprise that involves handing your cash over to a compulsive shares gambler. If you don’t believe this then just look at Dyson, Hoover, Ford, Cadburys, Airfix to name but a few. Bill Gates, Apple and CR Smith are more pertinent in the modern times.

These innovators and entrepreneurs never handed their wads over and then sat back waiting on their ships coming in. The eighties gurus of the new age go getters who cashed in on the popularity of the self help books should have been the under writers of the new age prophets. That failed to take hold in the deep waters of the fast turning tides of the high speculators eighties markets where previously the bottom line was gilt edged bonds and property from the short term investors, who were dipping in and out on hunches. This tactic gave a false view of a quick turnover and high rewards (easy money to all the lazy and greedy gamblers) and gave the impression that big rewards were there to be made if your nerve and savvy could be relied on to hold just long enough to take a reasonable profit through the prescribed quick turnover method.

The new age property developer programs have shown that with hard work and effort and a good deal of investment, cash loans whatever. Then a reasonable profit can still be gotten out of a buyers market. It still seems like the golden bubble has finally burst and the bottom has finally fallen out of the market for the majority of us, and this has been reflected in the current price slump that is affecting property in this country. Negative equity has land locked quite a high percentage of ill informed buyers, while tumbling prices have reflected that the buyer has greater discernment and has started to enforce the location rule before parting with the hard earned.

Now contrary to popular belief (is that the inconvenient truth?) property has to be in the relative price bracket of the first time buyer before it becomes a reasonable goal after all the established ‘home owner’ is already paying and has usually used the sale of the first property to invest in the new up sized dream home, and has offset the higher payments with a huge collateral investment and can survive the expected fluctuations in the market. Now the unwary first time buyer has to stretch beyond the normal means, and then has to survive the hikes and rises and inflation punishment for at least five years to ensure that they can probably survive the distance, most flounder and are repossessed in the first five years. This puts the reclaimed property back into the hands of the property holders (hmm who can they be hmmm beats me), all of the investment and payments are lost and the cycle resets, to fast tail spin and out the egress via Barnum and bailey’s trip the unsuspecting. Is one truly born every minute?

What to do and who to believe. Money is a static commodity and it takes hard work to make the normal person part with it. It just takes to much to get an accumulation of the stuff and we are all a bit to wary of the traps to ever fall for it again. So sales techniques are the order of the day, just look at advertising, time share, home in the sun, then think about all of the warnings they have to tell us about and how programs like ‘Watchdog’ panorama, the Cook report and these all go as far back as Esther Ranson’s shows, to see its not the disclaimers we need to worry about its not having the savvy to ask the right questions. There is no better business charter of good behaviour and there is no fairness in love and war. The Japanese say that business is the art of war for the modern age and you know they just could be right.Cash flow only exists where a cash business is working, the Barras, markets and shops etc. The working john has an income and outlays and is mortgaged to the hilt so cannot have long term savings, as savings are for life’s luxuries, holidays, hospital or vet bills, second hand cars etc. One emergency or major calamity and over ninety percent of ‘home owners’ are suddenly insolvent and heading for bankruptcy (the bank interruption will make you cry) and repossession.

The average punter runs close to the winds of a potential typhoon to try and stay ahead of the impending storm. Sounds familiar then you are my target audience.

The illusion of a cash flow is maintained by the banks lending to cash turnover businesses from your savings, which they also charge you for handling talk about a double whammy. This sounds like the best of both worlds as they sit on the razors edge of the precariously poised sword of Damocles. Now with all the failed money strategies of the last two decades, the Bundersbank crash, the bamboo binging (cheep grey imports and cloning brands), the Wall Street fiascos, the high flyer crash and burns, Lloyds going belly up. Couple all of this with the sustained efforts of investing in war (usually a good return, with lots of spoils), then the property markets topping off and crashing in a horrifying slow motion pile up. Sustained weather fronts causing fires, destroying property, twice yearly flooding and no underwriters to soften the blows and global warming will now ensure they never will. This will price certain areas out of the property insurance brackets, but the people won’t move, people like to sink with their properties as history has clearly shown.

The illusion is further maintained on the surface, and suspicion says that is the professional exterior trying to be the swan in a typhoon, there is frantic efforts going on under the waters of the so called ‘flow’ to make the illusion last a little longer. These failed guesser’s and investors, these bill the client and the investor (that’s savers to you and me) for the privilege, still cannot get it right. They claim unstable forces in the market. Natural disasters and acts of god, those old chestnuts unforeseen circumstances and forces beyond our control, are already on the lips of the spin merchants as they strip bare the coffers of the old bastions of a bygone age of imperialism.

When will we learn never run risks, never take chances. Guilt edged investments are long term investments for a good reason. Star young and cash in at early retirement age and S.K.I. all the way to your private utopia and let the kids fend for themselves. That’s the new philosophy of Thatcher’s children, the me and I want it all and I want it now generation.

It may not come as a surprise that the coffers are finally depleted, after all with this level of professional incompetence linked to poor returns and no underwriters to soften the blow. Couple this with the masses of people that have lost property to the winds of fate, the changing tide, and poor location and the picture is slowly coming into focus. Enhancing the image a little, with more negative equity, the prospect of working a lifetime without reward and being pressured into poor working conditions, bad pay, and lousy hours, estranged kids, unrealised dreams or even expectations for retirement and an eventual comfortable lifestyle are all being consigned to room 101’s failure bins by the day. Is the world finally on a spiralling meltdown. Where is a saviour when you need him. Will Arthur be reborn, will Christ step in and save the day. Or has the old devil taken his due on the backs of our collective gullibility and greed, as he sits back and fiddles as the world burns.

Oh yeah almost an afterthought and probably not related at all. Old Teflon Bill is a sure footed mountain goat as he heads for the unclaimed throne at the pinnacle of acclaimed world class statesman wish list, and he is not alone. But it is interesting that nothing seams to stick to him and nothing damages his image, what a charmed existence he has had up till now. What a perfect point for the race to be the first president of the world of the third rock from the sun in the outer galaxy of the outer rim of the milky way in the known universe. For fate to step in and let the man for the job be the only one for the job. Awe bless and he was looking so likely to suck eeerrrr seed or was that, a Havana good time.Stay tuned for the next exciting instalment of the ‘As the world revolves.

Prison Planet Earth

I have been an inhabitant of this realm of reality for nearly fifty two years. In that time I have tried to understand myself, the family unit, friendships, the working environment and the mechanisms of society. As well as the workings of financial sectors, not to mention the hearts minds and souls of the modern human psyche. The most confusing thing for me has been relationships. If I am honest the next most confusing one has to be the so called political structure of the great big mythical beast democracy. I don’t vote and refuse to even enter into any kind of pretence that a vote is a valuable thing. Well that would be true if the fact that my vote would elect a responsible body of people that have my best interest at heart or at least in their charter or manifesto. That can prove in their dealings that they can learn from their and their opponents mistakes, but the historical evidence of politics just in the so called democratic unit still leaves a lot to be desired, and shows us quite clearly that this political animal cannot change its spots. So much so that their behaviour and their obvious inability to learn from their own mistakes (not personal misdemeanours) like wasting public funds, investing in useless control devices and billing us for their paranoid insecurities, and their insistence on treating ninety seven percent of the law abiding populace as if we are criminals and persecuting us and penalising us to underwrite their non profit body and keeping themselves sustained in privileged positions, to the extreme detriment of the majority (inherently undemocratic) for the transgressions of the few. The cash that runs this society is taken from the poorest people who believe in the system and are trying to hold down up to two or three part time jobs (gone are the days of full time, full or life long employment, another myth biting the dust daily) and are usually depriving themselves of quality time with their own families as a direct consequence, while their hard earned cash is stripped at every turn to supplement this increasing body of near useless class of sycophantic leaches. They are more like leaches than any true symbiotic and complimentary life forms. Who are seemingly determined to squeeze the last ounce of resources out of the hands of the true believers. Does this indicate that the civil (now there is a misnomer) service, the police and the law society and politicians are indeed the greatest single waste of resources in the land, doesn’t history show us, the most informed people of the world, that they continually spend massive amounts of cash on CSA, single parent bashing, unnecessary drug enforcement (take pot out of the equation and watch the figures almost disappear overnight), asbo’s the by product of a television series ‘Neighbours From Hell’ which closed after two series as they had run out of worthy material. The Bill another piece of subliminal programming for the impressionable bored youth of today, who all think that real life is on the telly and they are all in limbo waiting for their lives to start and catapult them into stardom or celebrity. It must serve someone’s purposes to keep us divided, disconnected and misinformed, while they fritter away our collective resources.

The Muppets that run this country opened the doors to the eastern block mafia letting the most undesirable elements of life into our safe harbour, then they let one thousand of the caught criminals ‘accidentally’ back into the mainstream. Is someone on a mission to keep an organised police force (paranoid, or control freaks?) against the probability that civil unrest will lead to a destabilising of the social element of society one day, or that the three percent of deviants in life will somehow wrest control from us and lead the world into a downward spiral into hell. Where we will all be forced to toil our lives away in demeaning labour intensive or mind numbing unsatisfactory jobs and to loose touch with our children and have all our resources stolen on a regular basis. Which brings us back to the elite parasites living high off the hog at the denizens of hells expenses. Sound familiar, just what did the poor people do to deserve such a pitiful existence, here in our green and pleasant land, where the rights of the individual are still mythically upheld as the cornerstone of this realm. If the waiting invasion forces views of this countries mythical status are to be believed.

Seems like when we traded away the sovereignty of the elite royal and upper class twits for the new broom democratic base, we just simply swapped a minority of leaches for a majority of wasters, who are badly in need of counselling for their paranoia (drugs make you paranoid) distrust and need for absolute control. That the controlling minority still have the power to award themselves a pay rise of any amount and can blatantly do as they please, squander what they like and are to all intents and purposes are beyond the reach of the law. Cash for questions Teflon Blair and cronies got the early warning and managed to abscond after creating the next level of hell and leaving the eager scapegoat to stupidly grab the hot potato.

With a looming world recession, the financial infrastructure of the world is now precariously balanced on the edge of collapse. Banks the so called repository of our wealth have recently been shown up as the inhuman soul of the debt ridden society. Sort of reminds me of the tale of old mother Hubbard. They now print notes that truly reflect the true state of the devaluation of the pound, where a paper economy can print its own revues. They used to proudly say ‘pay the bearer on demand the sum of one pound (16oz) sterling silver. Just try trading a pound against an ingot (1oz) of silver, or the American dollar ‘pay the bearer in gold’ both these financial liars are responsible for frittering away the wealth of nations. The are now singularly responsible for sinking the bright vessel ‘future hope’, financial frauds like pensions have disappeared under the cover of such slogans as ‘bad investments’ just like the other frauds mediums and soothsayers old chestnut ‘due to unforeseen circumstances or events ….’ And various other excuses. The ‘cheque is in the post’, off course ‘I will love you in the morning’ notoriously from the horny man, who likes to come and then go as he pleases.

I keep hearing in the media how desirable this country is to certain other denizens of the third world and the eastern block, so much so that they are supposedly heading here in droves. That there is an army of refugees and migrants just waiting across the channel to invade, while immigrants in this country are marrying from back home to get their whole kith and kin into this new utopia. Then there are the new upwardly mobile skills force that are commuting to this country using their skills and an entrepreneurial attitude to life to enter our country and help themselves to a better life, presumable putting a continuous drain on our cash flow as they take currency and opportunities that our own workforce could use.Does anyone remember signing up for the eternal treadmill of disillusionment and, wasted life force of trying to build a better workplace and living environment against the flow of the establishments apparent determination, to squander and inhibit our every efforts? Can anyone hold their hands up to volunteering to waste most of our time and resources toiling to make goods that quite frankly we don’t need or buy, food and clothes yes, entertainment yes, the odd bit of cheep white goods yes, furniture and fittings rarely but yes. So to those wonderful people that are making munitions, state of the art killing machines. Industrial elite white goods and the like, wouldn’t you like to ask them what sort of world they envision, and who do you think their weapons and goods will be used against. That lastly brings us to the question, where can we find an elite body of trained burocrats to manage the enforcement, And a weapons trained elite force to control the masses and suppress uprisings. The police are currently trying to get tazers introduced into every local force throughout the nation. After the DeMendez incident We should all be shouting not on our watch mate. Of course the super elite beings that are the soul beneficiaries of the new evolved state of the supreme one percent and last time I looked that isn’t you and me.

George Orwell once had a vision of a totalitarian dictatorial state dressed up in the velvet glove of the benign persona of ‘Big brother’. The mass reports of the early alien abduction reports were smattered with lots of (anal) misinformation, while a hard core maintained that a G.P.S device was inserted under the skin so that the ‘invaders’ could locate their victims at any time. Early testing in rigorous real circumstances, sometimes known as field testing? Or just the early forerunner of the cel phone, and the credit card for tracking everyone. And they even got the hype that the phone is indispensable, a whole generation now have the space 1999 hand held device, and only seven years later than advertised sorry predicted. Look at the near hysteria of the hyped release of Apples iPhone.

Yes only the greedy elite have to worry about protecting themselves from the rest of us or so we are told. They really only have to worry about the three percent, the resentful and the envious, the rest of us have to much to worry about just surviving and making ends meet, time management, running the family, paying the bills. The three percent that don’t and couldn’t care less about these things are either supper rich and privileged from their shady and unscrupulous dealings (making enemies as they rise) and the others of their ranks that are like them but undisciplined, they would rather steal, embezzle or con it out of the hard working variety of their shifty numbers, the successful elite, and when they cant, they then target easy or gullible prey.

Shame we can’t just find a way to let them at each other it seams they were made for each other. That would leave the rest of us with our entertainment (film their every shady move) and we can all get down to the business of designing a caring and productive society that does reward, does fulfil and does satisfy the soul that we can make a better world for our children, and not continue to squander our today by borrowing against their tomorrows. A brighter future is possible but the seed must be sown today.It doesn’t have to be a utopia, it doesn’t need to be idealistic, but we have the skills in our ranks to devise a better world, today for tomorrow. Like the Space 1999 device the technology was around before the turn of the century to make the device, but the marketing and the packaging and the need all had to be put in place, sexy looking device, functional and keeps us connected (another myth, for we are all mobile and so in touch eh!) great marketing can sell freezers to Eskimos. The package is compact and portable, easily powered and recharged. Uses the latest technology and facilitates the interconnectivity of the global community. Now is this the consensus of current thinking or opinion, or just more hype. A new prison cel for the modern inhabitant of the shrinking global community, or one hell of an advertisement for yet another mythical present to keep us from planning a better future.

In the new tomorrow for the new tomorrow people, the great administration body that would be needed to keep it all running smoothly would be entitled to certain pay restrictions that would be offset against a good level of worthwhile perks. Instead of the present unrealistic, higher pay settlement and all of the perks they can hoard from the community coffers.

Give me a call, well do lunch, have your people talk to my people and all that Jazz of the modern parlay-once. Isn’t it nice that the over policed internet now provides chat rooms for us to chat together and give them a reason to take action, after all we cannot congregate in public without the oppressors dispersing us with the civil disobedience rules that we all break every day as we go about our lawful intent. And if that all fails write a blog as an epitaph before some group of aliens abduct you and you disappear mysteriously into the great unknown. If we were Russian that would probably be Siberia comrade. Or we could just meet an untimely end due to a drunken or drug crazed mugger, or an extremist cult member could sanction us as the media tells us they do. So just who does police the police. And the parting shot over the bow, ‘Have no false ideologies before me’. So who do you think you are kidding Mr fiddler.

It could just be that the idea that money is the root of all evil is currently the point of view that is behind the enforcement of a debt ridden society. It could also be that a strong core of anti-materialism is clouding the thinking of the planners of the old utopic view of the present idealistic tomorrow planners. Then that must beg the question why is our society formulated around a commercial ideal, that is inherently doomed to fail because of the underlying ideologies of a Christian or religious background. Why base our world on debt when we will never get out of the cycle, and when we all secretly yearn for a fairer society that does deliver the hope of a more satisfying and rewarding life. Counter productive or what. Then that leaves us with the final question who stands to benefit from the failure of this present decline, and who will pay the costs.
