A New Economics That Works

for Business, Families ...

and the Planet.

“A prescription for an economic system that is both equitable and sustainable.
  It should be read and used by everyone who wants a better world!”

                                                                                              Deepak Chopra


" The most important human creations are our cultures. The cultures we create largely determine whether we kill one another and destroy nature’s life-support systems, or live in a humane and sustainable world. And economic systems are a
key element of ALL cultures.

I have in this book argued that we need a caring economics more congruent with the direction in evolution toward greater consciousness, creativity and caring. I realize that speaking of direction in evolution is today a kind of scientific heresy. At best, it’s acceptable to say there is evolutionary movement toward greater complexity and variability. But as Darwin himself noted, the movement in evolution goes beyond greater complexity and variability to the emergence of needs, capacities, motivations, and possibilities of a different order than those present in earlier life forms.

This does not mean that our species, as one of the last to emerge, is the apex of evolution, and thus entitled to lord it over other life forms. Nor does it mean there is a divine plan or intelligent design. We don’t have any way of knowing what ultimately lies behind evolution, and this is so whether we think evolution is directionless or not.
But it does mean that as life evolved on our Earth, it developed an ever greater capacity for consciousness, creativity, planning, and choice. And while these capacities are not unique to us, they are most highly developed in our species.

Whether these human capacities are expressed, however, largely depends on the kinds of social and economic systems we create. This makes us, quite literally, co-creators of our evolution.

We certainly can’t determine everything about our future. But we can join together to create the social and economic conditions that nurture, drive, and promote the expression of our positive rather than negative genetic capacities. Indeed, having unprecedented biological capacities means that it’s our evolutionary responsibility to use these gifts in positive rather than negative ways.

ALL LIFE FORMS – from the smallest to the largest, from amoeba and plankton to elephants and whales – have to some extent altered our planet. Some have done so by simply appearing on the evolutionary scene. Others have built new structures: birds make nests and beavers construct dams. But no species has come close to what we humans have done.

We have used our imagination and our capacity for turning visions into realities to create a whole new human-made world. Some of what we created is extraordinary: buildings as tall as mountains, airplanes that fly higher than birds, and technologies that reveal subatomic structures, explore outer space, and probe the mysteries of the brain. Some of it is exquisite: beautiful music, poetry and art. But some of it is horrendous: gas chambers, torture chambers, nuclear bombs, and invisible biological weapons for instant mass annihilation.

WE stand at an evolutionary crossroads in our human adventure on this Earth.
We can continue with “business as usual” – even though both science and our native intelligence tell us that the mix of high technology and an ethos of domination and conquest may take us to an evolutionary end. Or we can use the great gifts we were given by evolution to create a new economic story and reality – a caring economics that supports both human survival and human development and actualisation.

It is in our power to imagine the world we want for ourselves and our children.
For most of us, this is a world where our basic needs for food, shelter, and safety,
as well as our yearning for nurturing and love, for justice and peace, and for a sense
that what we do has meaning and helps others as well as ourselves, are fulfilled.
Above all, it is a world where our children survive and thrive.

It is up to us to help create the conditions that support this vision. We have been endowed by nature with an amazing brain, an enormous capacity for love, a remarkable creativity, and a unique ability to learn, change, grow and plan ahead.
If we act now, we can use these capacities to co-create the economic and social systems that support the great gifts we were granted by evolution.

We can’t wait for our national and international leaders to act. Every one of us can be a leader by using our imagination and initiative to change consciousness, practices, and policies."

... in the evolution of ALL LIFE

on earth, when ...

AT the same TIME  ...

1. China's backing allowed the Sri Lanken president to ignore Western protests and perpetrate the final assault on the Tamil Tigers by surrounding 50,000 civilians inside a tiny enclave.

2. Peter Foster reports from Beijing that …

Zhao Ziyang, the former Communist Party leader, has spoken from beyond the grave to break two decades of official silence on the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989 with a wide-ranging attack on the Chinese political system.

Zhao Ziyang is quoted to have said in "Prisoner of the State: The secret Journal of Zhao Ziyang"; published today that  "It is the Western parliamentary democratic system that has demonstrated the most vitality. If we don't move toward this goal, it will be impossible to resolve the abnormal conditions in China's market economy."

3. The "man in the midin" Speaker of the "Mother" of the Western parliamentary democratic system, RESIGNS (the first for over 300 years) because of his inability to control the shambolic state of affairs which has been revealed to the British PEOPLE, by the Daily Telegraph in the last 12 days.

4. "We are being afflicted by a new disease of which some readers may not yet have heard the name, but of which they will hear a great deal in years to come - namely "TECHNOLOGICAL UNEMPLOYMENT". This means unemployment due to our discovery of means of economizing the use of labour outrunning the pace at which we can find new uses for labour." - John Maynard Keynes

5. ALL the efforts of Barack Obama to defuse the problems of the Middle East and to "open the minds" of those that control the lives of the PEOPLE, seemingly are falling on deaf ears.

6. AND NATURE proves that IT IS IN CONTROL of Homo Sapiens NOT Homo Sapiens in control of Nature


I am reminded of :-

1. Dr. Ralph Linton's statement that - "The tremendous and still accelerating development of science and technology has not been accompanied by an equal development in social, economic and political patterns. It is safe to predict that such social inventions as modern-type capitalism, fascism and communism will be regarded as primitive experiments directed toward the adjustment of modern society to modern methods."

2. Larry Elliott and Dan Atkinson's 2007 epic "FANTASY ISLAND; WAKING UP to the incredible economic, political and social ILLUSIONS of the Blair Legacy";


and am considering that Blair's Legacy IS it self  NOT an "island legacy" but a collective "top-down" legacy of the Thatcher/Blair/Reagan/Bush/Clinton/Bush "eras";

and remorselessly coming to the conclusion, in the context of my own
long standing commitment to the concept that no man is an island ...

that it is imperative that

each and everyone of the 

PEOPLE of our planet awaken

from the "fantasy island"

mentality of denial;

 

lest IT BECOME a global

fantasy island MIND-SET

of APATHY & DESPAIR.

   OUR THOUGHTS and LOVE "R"

   and will ever continue 2B with

   U BOTH as ONE "peace" of

   LIFE's intricate jigsaw

THE JOKE about the man who was laughing his head off ?

Ha Ha - BONK!

Ha Ha - the sound of laughter, an expression of triumph on discovering something

... as our planet moves to the colder climes of its solar orbit and the inexorable increase in its surface temperature is further modified by global dimming, the vast oceans twixt the land absorb the predominance of that extra heat as potential precipitation, which is then shed upon both land and sea; the consequences of which are BEING daily experienced by ALL LIFE on EARTH as the sea levels continue to rise.


Ha Ha - a ditch or vertical drop forming a barrier without interrupting the view

... as stewards of ALL LIFE on EARTH it  IS the responsibility of our species, individually and collectively, to seek authenticity of ACTION, and recognise that the transcendance of EGO is analagous to the concept of the ha ha. Once acknowledged, the EGO is accepted as "forming a barrier without interrupting the view" of the purpose of ALL LIFE on EARTH and throughout the multiverse of parallel universes.



Whilst the wars of fundamentalist religious & non-religious motivation continue to
rage around the planet and a supplementary climate change conference is
convened in Copenhagen, the concluding statements of the first part of this week's
Financial Times series The Future of Capitalism; written by Martin Wolf & entitled
"Seeds of its own destruction";  absolutely place into context  the predominately patriarchal political mind-set of our new masters of the globe who are presently engaged, as ever, in confrontational discussions as to the agenda and its agreed underlying values & principles of their "last chance saloon" economic catastrophe event, due to take place in London on the 2nd April.


"On June 19 2007, I concluded an article on the “new capitalism” with the observation that it remained “untested”.  The test has come: it failed.

The era of financial liberalisation has ended. Yet, unlike in the 1930s, no credible alternative to the market economy exists and the habits of international co-operation are deep.

'I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas any more,' said Dorothy after a tornado dropped her, her house and dog in the land of Oz.

The world of the past three decades has gone. Where we end up, after this financial tornado, is for US to seek to determine."
                                                                                                   Martin Wolf


There will be a pre-cursor meeting to discuss the 2nd April EVENT this week-end in West Sussex, England to discuss an outline of the agenda but apart from the major EAST / WEST division of savers & spenders amongst the 20 participants, there IS already a major rift within the WEST as to whether regulation of the underlying causes of this catastrophe should be included, as well as adopting the spend, spend, spend mentality of both the US & UK administrations at the expense of the long-suffering, taxpaying and saving communities.

An absolute exemplification of the WE KNOW BEST - THEM and US - MIND-SET.

WILL this meeting of minds of our new masters of the globe - in the face of the common-sense ACTIONS of the people - IN FACT be destined to become the beginning of the FINAL Black Swan Event of our species? ... or WILL the people IN FACT have the "last laugh" over their new masters of the globe?






IT would seem that the ONLY HOPE of a "global common-sense outcome" to the
G20 summit in London lies with one of the 20 participants, the president of Brazil.

LET US HOPE and PRAY that his own values and principles concerning 
"The future of human beings IS what matters" can INDEED prevail ...

IN OUR PURSUIT

of THE necessary
 

ACTION of "creativity"

IS, as also the concept of GOD,

very much a symbol of UNITY.

THE equitable unity of man and woman at the core of THE most important community in LIFE, which IS FAMILY. But NOT the unity of man in control of woman as is so often the case with ALL of those religions of the world and their political cohorts which have evolved exclusively in accordance with the patriarchal mind-set. A mind-set  that IS genetically rooted in the animalistic survival of confrontation and conflict and one that unfortunately, as our species as a whole has evolved it’s collective consciousness, remains locked into the tribal male dominated “ists” “isms” & “itys” of basic ...

"DO WHAT I SAY NOT WHAT I DO" fundamentalist thinking.

" The truth is that Europe has never had so dire a crisis since the Treaty of Rome was signed in 1957. SAUVE QUI PEUT is the watchword. President Sarkozy has entered a familiarly Gaullist phase, ignoring EU competition policy and pushing through a €6 billion support for the French car industry; other manufacturers, notably in eastern Europe, have protested to no avail.

Mr Sarkozy's assertion that he is not a protectionist is purely rhetorical. When a German minister says that "now is not the time" to let workers from the EU's former eastern bloc countries have full immigration rights in Germany, he is saying the same thing. Gordon Brown may not be able to ensure British jobs for British workers, but the Germans are determined to keep their jobs for German ones.

This bending of the rules [of the OLD ORDER MODEL] – or rather this wholesale disregard of them – is the surest sign of a currency, and quite possibly an EMPIRE, in terminal decline. "
                                                                                                  
                                                                                                Simon Heffer


A mind-set that has brought us to the brink of the abyss.

A chasm of mis-understanding of the peoples of this planet, spiritual and non-spiritual alike, who as ever are subject to the backward thinking varigries and leadership skills of our new masters of the globe.

There was a TIME during the early manifestation of our species that respect for the feminine of our species was beyond approach. THIS time around, however, our new masters of the globe have “engineered” an explosion of debt in the west at the expense of the hard labours and savings of the peoples of the East, and established a global infrastructure of banking, commerce and trade which has served the “immorality“ of their self-sophisticated arrogance and greed; whilst running out of oil far sooner than we think, burning what’s left such that our planet is being warmed to a catastrophic level and BEING in complete denial of the fact that the species survival on earth could BE subject to any number of "black swan" events.

TIME to take a rain check on that MODEL and collectively decide upon the constitution of a global model of "equitable thinking" communities, of the people, for the people and by the people.


So what does all this mean for our new masters of the globe?


According to Helen Fisher, speaking at the WEF Forum 2008 in Davos ...

Combine the long-term thinking of women with the short-term focus of men.

And bear in mind that different thinking also results in very different behaviour.

Men think more in terms of status and rank. Women prefer flat hierarchies.

Men can have tunnel vision, women may fail to get to the point.

Women find it difficult to counter aggression. When men push back, it earns them the respect of other men.

When women apologise, they are not really sorry. For men it's a serious affair, a perceived weakening of their status.

Ms Fisher's list goes on and on, but her message is clear.

Managers, says Ms Fisher, have to realise that men and women act differently, and that they complement each other.

Having only men or women on your team would be like hopping on one foot instead of walking.

As the status of women is on the rise again, says Ms Fisher, we

"move forward to a lifestyle we had a million years ago".

ROLL ON the "sanctity of marriage", twixt the masculine and feminine of our species, in EVERY aspect of LIFE such that the very survival of ALL LIFE on EARTH, and probably throughout the multiverse of parallel universes, becomes a symbol of "complementary" UNITY and the "Power of Collaborative Innovation".

LET us ALL 

dance the dream of grace

As we celebrate National Marriage Week, IT IS

time to "reflect" on the incalculable value of

this social institution.

THE contribution that marriage makes to social life does not end with the intensive period of raising a young family. When a couple marry, they are not simply legalising their sexual relationship – a step which few couples might think necessary given the relaxed mores of contemporary society. They are making a public declaration of their commitment to one another which joins their two families. IT IS the interconnecting network of all those conjoined families that constitutes a community. Marriage is not simply a testament to the present feelings of a man and a woman but to their readiness to accept responsibility for the future. So the stability of a long-standing marriage can offer emotional security not only to the first generation of children it produces, but to grandchildren, extended family and friends.


Twenty years or more ago when my soulmate, Linnie, made this Panda Birthday Cake, on the occassion of one of our three children's birthdays, the Giant Panda was already an "endangered species". My middle daughter Alison became a vegetarian at that time, following her child-hood researches into LIFE on EARTH and subscribing, out of her own pocket money, to Junior Membership of the World Wildlife Fund as well as becoming one of its fund-raisers. It was a family tradition for each of the children to choose what KIND of cake they wanted for their birthdays, and Linnie baked the cake of their dreams for the 18th of January, 12th of February and 18th of February, EVERY year for several years. A diverse multiplicity of cakes, from bird's nests and OWLs to volcanoes and fireworks, including of course one of her masterpieces as pictured above.

MOST of the diverse multiplicity of confrontations, conflicts and consequences, which the peoples of this planet endure, on a day to day basis, fall into the category of mis-understanding, as has long-since been demonstrated between The Peoples Republic of China and Taiwan.

However, following The Peoples Republic's threats of war with Taiwan and the building of the "secret" submarine base on Hainan Island, it was The Peoples Republic which offered an olive branch to Taiwan , in the form of a pair of Giant Pandas, despite the devastating consequences of the earthquake in China last year.

Although Jeff Randall has suggested in his article today that - Bit by Bit Brown's fantasy is being pulled apart by the FACTS - and that - IF this were China we'd shoot the banker's - a reaction, no doubt, that a substantial proportion of the peoples of  America  would subscribe to, following this week's congressional hearings of those who have had their fingers in the "honey pot "; IT would appear that Barack Obama IS facing not unsimilar problems, in building a team of experts to support him in his own "position of integrity".

Following ALL that has happened this week, across the planet, THE FACT NOW to be considered IS THAT ALL the break-downs of mis-understanding; at the core of EVERY problem, issue, crisis that the peoples of the planet face; IS that ALL the models on which we ALL depend, for politics & democracy, bankers & economics, religion & spiritual behavious, science & the research and development of technology are based on a predominately patriarchal mind-set. 

A mind-set which even permeates the concept of ALL THINGS integral & spiritual.

UNLESS the NEW model/s IS/are seen to tear up the "OLD Model Rule Books" of
the last several millenia of evolutionary development of our species; as a result of
"opening the door" to the establishment of  "NEW Model Rule Books" which are based on an internetwork of networks of equitable thinking, we shall ALL experience the re-building of a mechanism which will take ALL LIFE on EARTH INTO THE ABYSS.

ANYONE who had read 

George Orwell's "ANIMAL FARM"

AND were watching the bankers saying "sorry" yesterday and scrabbling for words of excuse today, before the House of Commons Treasury Select Committee; would naturally have come to the conclusion that we were witnessing a multi-episode spectacle of "four legs" challenging "four legs" at the expense of ALL the "two legs" that were expected to fund “the charade”.

George Orwell wrote his epic as a critique of Stalin’s version of communism but yesterday’s charade, particularly, was a “critique” of the immorality of a system, which capitalism has been allowed to adopt since the de-regulation of President Reagan and Prime Minister Thatcher.

A "de-regulation of morality" NOT a de-regulation of either banking, commerce or trade, to which the
new masters of the globe subscribe, whilst depending for their support on the corruption of those in politics, religion and science who are willing to approach “the pig’s trough”. As Simon Heffer has written in his "Jacqui Smith is a symptom of our consensus of cowardice" article -

"We could work out that Parliament must never again be reduced by an over-powerful but mediocre government to the role of an ornament. This requires no change in our constitution; it requires MPs to enforce the existing constitution properly. The elective dictatorship of which Lord Hailsham warned over 40 years ago has arrived, with the full support of the political class, and with itself as its own main interest. The catastrophe we see around us is its result, and the continuance in office of people like the present Home Secretary one of its many, grievous, symptoms."

HOW can ANY one individual who subscribes to the concept of a GOD, whatever that concept might BE, or indeed any one individual that follows the common-sense reality of his/her own set of moral values deem ALL of THIS as anything other than ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE ???

As of yesterday 79% of the peoples of the USA were giving their support to the NEW perspective of morality which Barack Obama has subscribed to in all his writings and throughout his Presidential Election Campaign; BUT as Albert has increasingly challenged elsewhere …

Where IS the Barack Obama of Europe ?

... to which I would concur and further ask

Where ARE the Barack Obamas of the suppressed
and oppressed peoples of the entire globe ?

The last time an economic crisis as bad as THIS “happened” it was most certainly NOT the economic crisis which led to its global reprocussions but it did happen as a result of the selfish sophistication, arrogance and greed of those that “got their money out at the expense of the small people’s investments” before the crash and who then left the people’s of the then capitalist world to pick up the pieces.

THIS time around our
new masters of the globe
have “engineered” an explosion of debt in the West at the expense of the hard labours and savings of the peoples of the East, whilst establishing a global infrastructure of banking, commerce and trade which again served the “immorality” of their self sophisticated, arrogance and greed.

THIS WAS by "the design" of a premoinately patriarchal MIND-SET

Was it not President Adams’ wife who said on entering the Capitol …

“Half-fed slaves building our nation’s Capitol, HOW can any good come from this place?” - no doubt in the context of her husband’s earlier statement - “SO much for the overthrow of the tyrannies of Europe”.

TIME to take a rain-check on ALL of this and the broken “Humpty Dumpty MODEL of economics” ...


start  asking Albert’s questions and ...


collectively decide upon the constitution of a global model of  ALL the people, for the entirely mutual benefit of ALL the people, by ALL the people who are absolutely committed to appropriate responsible ACTION in adherence to
THE GLOBAL SET
of moral values.

"When I hear criticism as elegant as this I wonder why everyone thinks Obama is such a good speaker. Your garden variety British Politician is tons better than Obama, who needs a squad of speechwriters, axelrod, and mr. teleprompter to hold his hand while speaking."

to survive as ...

THE BASIS of a “NEW Humpty Dumpty”  model of global significance, the peoples of the world have to awaken to the FACTS; and collectively address the underlying problems of the CRISES of politics, religion and science.

FACT 1 – Monetary Wealth can ONLY be generated as a result of the labours of the people; unless of course, money itself becomes a commodity as it has done since Reagan & Thatcher’s DE-regulation, and having done so, has led to the most severe economic crisis that the totality of our species has thus far experienced.

FACT 2 – Bankers have forever tapped into that wealth at the expense of those labours of the people and always utilised it to their own selfish ends, counting on the fact that the capitalist model accepted the fact that banking was too large/important to fail.

FACT 3 – “Capitalism is about the link between effort and reward. It is about the creation of wealth according to the quality of one's enterprise. Without wealth creation there is no scope for the taxation that enables the functions society deems moral: a welfare state, the defence of the realm, the maintenance of law and order.”

FACT 4 – 40% of global GDP has been wiped out as a result of the actions of bankers, quants, politicians and their regulatory framework colleagues, following the “massive expansion of the money supply in western economies and in the developing ones too, whether China, India or Brazil. This expansion, which was the fault of governments because it is they who control the money supply, put trillions of dollars of cheap money at the disposal of bankers and other institutions who make a living by buying cheap – in this case buying money cheap – and selling dear.”

AND NOW the peoples of the globe have been left to “pick up the pieces”
of the OLD Humpty Dumpty system of economics.

From the outset of our species’ “journey of life” on this planet it has been the power of MEN’s physical and egotistic nature that has driven his instinctive and intuitive understanding of the spiritual component of LIFE, to the point that HIS interpretations of ALL aspects of LIFE have been merged into an indelible pattern of individual responsibility, as custodian, for the collective good of his closest group of the species.

During the early phases of this development the strongest took control and the spiritual was delegated to a.n.other as a partner in the process of control of the feminine and devine feminine perspectives of LIFE. The dual, parallel forces of politics and religion were established side by side, sometimes in conflict, sometimes in unison, until such time as the advent of the concepts of church and state as one and church as state were embodied.

As our species spread over the earth an adherence to this tribal pattern led to animalistic territorial confrontation, conflicts and wars, often at the behest of “religious advice”, and the consequent pillaging of goods and subsequent trade of those goods, for the ever increasing collective good. A collective good, however, which became to be controlled by a corrupt partnership of  state and religion, supported by the new politics of Machiavelli.

Bankers and banking appeared on the scene, primarily to fund these conflicts and wars as the catalyst to the process of an ever increasing accumulation of material wealth and power over the people, amply supported by the observations of scientific experiment and the development of ever more appropriate technological solutions; and along came protestant reformation, the commonwealth, the industrial revolution,
the “seeds” of democracy through revolution and capitalism.

Capitalism can best be described as a system in which private capital or wealth is used in the production or distribution of goods, for the mutual benefit of ALL stakeholders, in support of the very best values of democratic society. Capitalism has provided the mechanism by which the potential benefits of global free trade could be made available to ALL 6.5 billion souls on our planet. 

Democracy as a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people collectively, and is administered by them or by officers appointed by them, IS best manifested as a state of society characterised by recognition of equality of rights and priviledges.

IT IS the breakdown of the, inherently required, responsibility to adhere to the  ethical standards first incorporated into the capitalist model, by the likes of Josiah Wedgewood and Henry Ford, in combination with the predominately patriarchal mind-set of our new masters of the globe, which has now resulted in the latest global recession/depression and has brought US ALL to the “abyss”, which we are NOW staring into.

The OLD MODEL of an economic system which generates and gives power to the self-sophisticated, arrogant and greedy nature of capitalists, bankers, and politicians – which has led to the dominance of the private owners of capital and of production of profit for the few rather than the mutual benefit of the many and the subsequent destruction of 40% of global gross domestic product -  HAS been found wanting and collapsed into a multitude of diverse pieces, as a result of their collective inability to manage, let alone administer the system for the benefit of the people and now they come to us “cap in hand to ask for more.”

The particular OLD WORLD interpretation of the European version of that OLD ORDER MODEL of an economic system has EVEN developed hand-in-hand with the creation of a European Government led by a small unelected exclusive group of MEN who have the supreme power of the EU in their hands.

An anti-democratic oligarchy IN FACT. 

An oligarchy which at present, as the spokesman of the 25 nations of the EU, is preaching to the foremost democracy on earth about its proposed BUY AMERICAN policy - whilst being locked into a system of monetary union which was never designed to cope with the inevitable global boom and bust which we are now experiencing -  as one of its NON-EMU member states is “Lording” its special relationship with that self same democracy.

IS IT NOT somewhat ironical that the buy American commitment IS of the people, by the people, for the people in the face of the predominately elitist “DO what I say NOT what I DO control” of the peoples of Europe and the rest of the so called civilised world by that small, unelected, exclusive group of MEN. The leaders of the EU, UK, Russia and China “spring to mind”.

IF every individual one of the peoples of the globe, now decided to lodge their earnings and/or savings into a mutual building society, savings and loan, credit union or for that matter under the mattress, the banking industry would be starved of funds and as Nobel Prize winning economist and former chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, Professor Stiglitz has recently suggested, “perhaps it would be best to allow ALL the banks to default on their own debts as a result of being made bankrupt” – but ONLY, I would suggest, on the basis that the banks should become an extinct species, such that capitalism as well as democracy should become a function of the people, for the people, by the people.

A commitment to establishing a social networking site of global significance,  based on the concept of conscious capitalism was, I truly believe, the driving force behind Brian’s “zaadz” initiative and its incorporation into the community of GAIA. 

IT IS THE collective mind-set of responsible and appropriate ACTION of the zaadsters_et_al@gaia, which MUST NOW PREVAIL, IF we are indeed to
address the underlying problems of the CRISES of politics, religion and science.

Barrack Obama. on this his 1Oth day of office as
the 44th President of the United States of America.

” There is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle than to initiate a new order of things.  For the reformer has enemies in all who profit by the old order, and only luke-warm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order. This quality of lukewarmness arises partly from a fear of adversaries, who have the law on their side, and partly from the incredulity of mankind, who do not truly believe in anything new until they have had actual experience of it.”

                                                                       
                                                                            Machiavelli - The Prince - 1513

Mr. President.

May we “the peoples of the world” support you in your quest to re-establish the symbolism of democracy, in accordance with the common-sense collective values of the peoples of  the USA; such that The White House IT SELF should become synonymous with the concept of  Merchants of LOVE not Merchants of DEATH.

Information is explicitly the LIGHT of knowledge.

Instinctive, intuitive, insightful, innovative, initiative taking are tacitly and
collectively the Keep It Simple Sustainable solution to the attainment of an
understanding of the wisdom of knowledge.

THE wisdom of knowledge of understanding can only be manifested as a result
of THE INTEGRITY of appropriate  responsible ACTION.

Just imagine opening the door to a common-sense MODEL of global politics, based on the collective mindset of the peoples of the USA ‘waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them”; such that you will forever “find it possible, in talking to these men and woman, to understand their motives, and to recognize in them values” which WE SHALL ALL SHARE.

A bottom-up, top-down model of equitable thinking, based on ...

”solving problems rather than winning arguments”. 

A model based on integrity, responsibility and accountability, which
demonstrates an absolute commitment to ethical standards.

A model which acknowledges the USA's onerous responsibility, in the
process of providing a "fit for purpose" global solution, equal to its public
obligations to humanity, in line with retired US Supreme Court Justice,
Sandra Day O'Connor's statement that ...

"Professionalism requires adherence to the highest ethical standards
of conduct and a willingness to subordinate narrow self-interest in pursuit
of the more fundamental goal of public service."

A model fit for setting THE moral standard for ALL the peoples of the planet such that “whatever you do for the least of my bothers you do for me”. 

As WE ALL find ourselves staring into the abyss and our leaders continue to espouse confrontational rather than common-sense collective solutions to the problems of our age - and then. in the context of your conversation with George Bush in 2004, that ...
“you had both got better than you deserved” -

WE APPLAUD your first step in acknowledging the urgent need to address
the equal rights of women, not just  “their” long expected responsibilities.






ALL hail to THE Chief !

and IF ALL ELSE FAILS

JUST LISTEN TO THE CHILDREN
