Oh beautiful day!

The heat of the sun is upon my pasty skin. The tennis racket is in my hand. Oh wonder! Oh, beauty! With a gentle breeze upon my face. I sip upon my irish coffee and deeply cherish with every strand of my being. Perhaps I should ride my bike. Well I would if I did not have the pressing need to go to work.

Blech

I have a storyboard written, a series of scenes that it is a bitch and a half to lace together, that could constitute a novel....If I could only focus on it and nothing else...

The problem is mostly the focus. I have so many other concerns at any given moment that taking a chisel to the story is far from my mind.

Oh, and stupendous news! I have finally picked up my first firearm and will be testing it out this weekend!
It's a Mossberg 500 shotgun 18.5", nothing much really. In my excitement, I have taken it apart, cleaned each piece, and oiled it about 8 times in the first day.

It has also been a keen reminder that my family is deathly afraid of the State. I am too, in a way. Especially since I have a far, far better grasp of the very soul of the State. Yet, I cannot abide evil be it small or large. I will endeavor against it in the most pragmatic manner I can.

Thoughts on Intra-Organizational Dynamics: Support for the SCUM Theory

We must remember that there is a point at which that which we deem "business" is really the "State" by another name. Any group of people pretending that what they are doing is of such import and necessity that they need other people to extort money for them in order to continue on, by any other name is still an evil fucking State.

All is but people interacting. They can label themselves whatever they please. If you NEED to violently fleece your fellow man to keep your "business" from failing then you should be left to fail.

Anything else makes your business no different than any so-called State Agency, and thus as much of an extension of the foibles of monopolies, in particular monopolies on force, as the POTUS or SCOTUS.

Let’s take a look at group dynamics.

Under a system like our own, every organization in it that has protection from competition which, here, stems directly from the existence of the State, exhibits a human variant on the trend spoken of in Gresham’s Law. That is, good people are driven out of the group by bad people.

To explain, let me start with two rules:

1) Remember, time and energy are scarce for each individual. You put yours into one task, you lose the opportunity to put it into another. This “opportunity-cost” is continuous. You are always losing opportunities in order to do what you are doing right now…..no, Now…..

2) People, unlike the currency that Gresham bespoke of, adapt. They have this terrible ability to actually assess (albeit imperfectly, and each to a different degree) a situation and adjust their behavior in order to better fit their perception of the environment they find themselves. Thusly, “good people” can become “bad people” and vice versa, depending on the environment.

The term “good people”, in this case, pertains to those who put their time and energy into production and innovation. These people increase the efficiency of organizations they are in. They increase the competitive worth of their organization. There is little difference between their actual value and their productive value, so to speak, within the organization. They also tend to be the ones who actually start new organizations rather than depend solely on finding groups to latch on to. However, the more anti-competition rule

The term “bad people”, in this case, pertains to those who put more, or all, time and energy in sucking-up and kicking-down. They are people-pushers and seek to rise to the top through social subterfuge. Their actual value to the organization is far, far below the perceived value they gain by simply turning people on each other and away from the purpose of the organization.

While the mechanisms are slightly different from what Gresham observed with money, the results are the same.

In a competitive free-market, where those companies that please the consumer the best are the ones that win out, “good people” thrive. They push their companies (groups of individuals) to produce or create the best product they can. If another group of people do a better job that group disperses, or reinvents its own ideas to compete. “Bad people” waste their energy trying to take over companies then having them fail and dissipate right out from under them. Plus, “bad people” tend to inhibit the necessary adaption process to keep a company from going under.

In the free-market the economic time frame is sped up immensely, and they do not have the sheer time or protection to abuse others in groups like they do. It’s just not economically feasible. Production and innovation, wealth are optimum in this social environment. Everyone wins the most. Though “bad people” tend to bitch about it and whisper to themselves how they should be on top (they do in any circumstance, really) because they are _____________(fill in crazy evil excuse here).

Inhibit that competition in production and innovation between groups of people and you create a system like ours today. The State grants favors, dictates at gunpoint and is beholden/responsible to a populace that is either not paying attention or on the receiving end of those favors. Rendering the State beholden to nothing but their eventual collapse (really they’re just a bad, horribly inefficient company that has put off its demise in a time sense while ensuring that when it does occur, blood will flow in rivers rather than a few people lose some money).

In such a system, there is a transformation. This change is in proportion to the depth at which competition is inhibited or even the rate at which it is inhibited. Those companies of people that best suck up to the members of the State “out-compete” the other companies without ever having to improve their company. Often, they succeed at keeping newcomers from ever daring to enter into their market Or having them eaten alive by those who can legitimately use force against others. They are now no longer beholden to a consumer that can take away this directly affects those “bad people” who suck and shove to the top get there and now seem unable to fail. Well they do, but their economic lifespan has been greatly increased which causes the perception that they do not fail. The business has lost incentive to do what it is that business does best, provide services or goods to consumers.

Now we introduce the effects of time!!! As those “good people” fritter their time away they are being out competed within the organization. The organization doesn’t fail from the “bad people” who spend all their time kicking to the top. This is not a process that immediately happens, but like all things over time. It is also aided and abetted by the State.

For example, should an organization be protected from competition and thusly subject by this gradual sifting of “bad people” to the top and “good people” going nowhere fast. With an extra helping of the State, “bad people” can now spend their time suing, snitching, and framing unwary “good people”. There by not only using intraorganization politics to remove competition, but also the tools provided by the State!

Also, harkening back to rule 2, when it is obvious which way the breeze is blowing, people will allocate more of their time into the sectors that benefit them. AKA, once “good people” become “bad people”, or vice versa in a free market. Leaving a very minimal amount of “die-hards” on each side.

In brief conclusion, while I let these ideas rest for a bit. In the end, everyone loses from this (competition inhibiting) paradigm. Everyone, and it can only get progressively worse.

Last note, replace “good people” with “producers of wealth” and “bad people” with “scum-sucking busy-body soul-devouring scraps of cancer”.

Sleeping

Tomorrow I will hold into my hands something that shall someday bear the words "ultima ratio regum". I will be happy. Very happy.

If only it was that easy.

Hiatus

I have been working everyday at my job for 3 weeks straight. I also have been diligently putting together the several notebooks of material on my book and have actually created 30+ pages of an actual rough draft.

I just got to the part where the protagonist is born. I still don't have a name for him.

I have also other duties to perform to certain individuals which do take up time.

And good lord, I have a crap ton of half finished essays that I would like to post.

However, Today I am taking a siesta. Well, I have been thus far, but it is really hard not to DO something. So I probably will work on and post one of said quips later.

I promise I'll post something on my personal life later, and pause from bitching about monopolies.

Dastardly

Stress Free Not for Me

I recently read in some news article that studies show that prolonged lack of stress causes memory to.....What was I saying?

Oh. Right.

Recent studies show that a bit of stress causes people to remember with greater clarity. I am not surprised. Like a good number of human (and at-large) characteristics, it's best to have something in small amounts than too much or not at all.

A 40-year long study found that a few ounces of alcohol per day increase life span an average of 4 to 5 years. Once again, small amounts.

I wonder when they'll "discover" positive effects of tobacco?

Regardless the problem occurs because studies may show, and honest education (i.e. without the blatant agenda of shit-fuckery) might help guide people to actually be responsible, but the state forces the exact opposite of responsibility.

From subsidizing college-age drinking binges to giving incentive to the least among us to order us in our daily lives, to engaging in open war against its own people for plants and chemicals that are not used as weapons. (ok, a syringe might, but then let's ban hospitals): Everyone would be a lot better off and have a better access to responsibility and all the rewards it could engender, if we just stopped listening to dipshits with badges.

Laws are MAGIC!!!!

"I WANT EVERYONE TO REMEMBER WHY THEY NEED US!"

Though, in part, I agree with Alan Moore in his sentiment that the message of "V for Vendetta" was toned down from the graphic novels blatant anarchist vs. fascist themes, it was still a damn decent movie. One that I wish I saw more patterned after.

I bring this up because lately, I am being constantly reminded of the montage they do in the movie when the dictate wages an info war against V. There is a sharp increase in horrific stories trying to scare the people into clamoring for further police protection.

So it is today. Within the past month, swine flu, mass shootings, drug war in mexico, North Korea is launching, recession going into depression, Air Foce One buzzing NYC, global warming, and of all things pirates, have been paraded before us in a ghastly spectacle followed closely by a toneless marching band trumpeting off-key how we can be saved only by government. "Trust us. The world is dangerous. You are dangerous to yourselves. Trust us to protect you. We don't fail, everyone else fails. Trust us" goes their Siren.

Each time the truth is obvious, the answer is there to solve this problem. But why solve that which gives you more power?

The pens have been built and it seems time for the herd to be clustered together in the yard for processing.

The irony of you all

Someone told me that I have a government fixation. That the world I envision without all this intervention would be "nasty, brutish, and short".

As an aside, wouldn't it be amusing if Hobbes was a strict Calvinist?

The truth is that government, the monopolization of force, is only the beginning for me. It's also the largest hurtle. Once I help carve out a piece of the world where freedom truly reigns, I will still have quite a business of providing service to people whilst also promoting practices that will help the people keep that freedom.

Plus, don't get me wrong. The free market is the vastly superior, and the optimum way to get everything that "demoncrats" say they wish for everyone, but until the end of humanity, we will always have shysters and liars. Their social life span will be negligible to nil once we have taken away their government aid and succor, but I will endeavor to make sure that people know about their heinous actions with expedience.

More life means more Death, but not necessarily vice versa

I didn't have the heart to tell Death that a possible outcome of ever expanding technology is that super-human intelligence might figure out a way to put an end to death. Besides I think if I did he would just knowingly wink at me, and don't get me started on how creepy THAT is.

Exploding/Reloading

Thoughts:

If war were profitable, Why not declare war on all the world?

If Obama is bringing us to peace, why am I concerned about the inevitability of the draft?

If guns were so bad in the hands of people why was domestic violence so much more pervasive before they were invented? And why is it once again becoming the norm in Great Britain and Australia?

A fascist state is but a crunchy candy with a gooey interior.

Cry unto your gibbering and mad God, "The People". For it is insane and cares not for your pleas. It will consume all.

I'm buying gold and guns. Come and get me, bitches.

Repeat After Me

Be trained by the State or your parents will be imprisoned or killed.

Obey the arbitrary and capricious laws of the State or you will be imprisoned or killed.

Pay what the State demands of you or you will be imprisoned or killed.

Kill and die for the State whenever it is demanded of you or you will be imprisoned or killed

Repeat after me,
I am Free


You really did repeat it didn't you? Figures.

Bitter

I love bitters. I do enjoy a great stout (must be high alcohol concentration in my humble opinion).

Though I apologize if I do come off as bitter. I am actually quite happy. I have quite a bit to be thankful for, I'm just never satisfied.

Here's the eternal thought going through my head. "Egads! _______ would be much better off by magnitudes of thousands of times if the State wasn't around to fuck it all up. And here's why...."

When you can look at a situation and see how it has massive room for improvement and every inclination to get worse simply because others are either too scared, too evil, or too stupid to stop themselves, you do tend to have a bit of bitterness about current affairs.

However, I do know that humanity, life in general, all supposed foibles aside is absolutely awesome.

I also believe in people simply because while under certain conditions they can be monsters, it holds equally true that under different conditions they can be saints. Also, though the masses are often a sea of fools, there are always individuals worth knowing and meeting.

That's why you must keep outwardly (and inwardly) positive, because you never know when you'll stumble upon people you can connect with, appreciate and admire.

Obama, Bush? All I know is that my eyesocket is sore and I can't stop the bleeding.

Seriously, Obama isn't doing anything different from Bush save calling the same actions different words. Sometimes.

Yet the pacman people (mouth opens and closes and all hope is eaten up never ending) keep spouting crap about him being either an evil socialist or a great statist. SAME SHIT.

Egads! I don't even have the ability to scream out WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE SO FUCKING MINDLESS!!!!
Cause I know why.
They identify with a group. They feel more powerful as part of a group. They have less personal responsibility for their words and actions as long as they are in line with the groups words and actions. They feel safe in the confines of the group.

Nevermind the group may be flowing like a flock of birds rapidly ramming into a cliffside and all the squawking is underscored by the constant sickening sounds of impacts and crushing bones and organs.

Never you mind. Because Obama is the Savior/Satan unlike the previous Satan/Savior and all your prayers will be answered and condemned.

With bullshit like this, it only makes me wonder how long until this administration tries to fan the flames of race war to produce enough smoke to hide their crime. Oh wait, fanning is already under way. You gotta watch out for those militia groups!

I'm going to put up a constant bright blinking sign screaming in lights and sound "BE AFRAID BE AFRAID BE AFRAID TRUST ME AND BE AFRAID" I might just develop a following of sycophants who will do my every stupid whim.

What? It works for the State.

Oh, and on a final note.

Fuck taxes. Fuck them. Fuck the fucking stupid shit who portends to validate them. For you people who think we "need" taxation, I'm going to dress up like I'm from Best Buy, hold you at gun point. Take 10000 dollars from you and leave you with a computer that still runs Windows 95. You do not get "service" for taxation, you get fucked. Not in the good way. Nay, you get skullfucked, and your money will go to teach your children to enjoy the same.
Huzzah your cowardice and evil!

Complex Answers

"I pledge not to initiate force for any reason." Or something like that.

Pretty simple. Don't strike first no matter how many people are telling you to. You are yourself, not a cog in their machine.

How do you reconcile with people who are so accustomed to theft and murder that to defend yourself from their assault entails public hatred, imprisonment and death?

Is it striking first to fight back when they are aggressive to you 24/7/365?

Does it break your code of ethics to undermine their machinations, to burn down their temples, and to kill their lies?
