The Twilight of Democracy by Tariq Ali


Tariq Ali discussion on the ideas outlined on his book The Extreme Centre: A Warning, during this years Festival of Dangerous Ideas.

What is the point of elections if result is always the same ??? : a victory for the extreme centre?

Since the end of the Cold War, politics in affluent Western democracies has become a contest to see who can better serve the needs of the market.

Rather than left and right parties representing genuinely different policies, they have converged to create a global economic order where deregulation, free trade, privatisation and market-driven solutions hold sway.

Whether voters agree or not, these things are a given, creating a massive disenchantment with government and a huge challenge to democracy.

Is this political wisdom or suicide?

Agelbert NOTE: It seems that human engineering began to cause the depletion of salmon stocks centuries before the industrial age.  :(  :P


Historical rise of waterpower initiated the collapse of salmon stocks

The collapse of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) stocks throughout North-Western Europe is generally ascribed to large-scale river regulation, water pollution and over-fishing in the 19th and 20th century.

However, other causes have rarely been quantified, especially those acting before the 19th century. By analysing historical fishery, market and tax statistics, independently confirmed by archaeozoological records, we demonstrate that populations declined by up to 90% during the transitional period between the Early Middle Ages (c. 450–900 AD) and Early Modern Times (c. 1600 AD).

These dramatic declines coincided with improvements in watermill technology and their geographical expansion across Europe
. Our extrapolations suggest that historical Atlantic salmon runs must have once been very abundant indeed.

The historical perspective presented here contributes to a better understanding of the primary factors that led to major declines in salmon populations. Such understanding provides an essential basis for the effective ecological rehabilitation of freshwater ecosystems.

How Was Alexander Graham Bell Honored after His Death?

After creating the first transmission of speech by electrical wires in 1876, Scottish-born inventor Alexander Graham Bell established the Bell Telephone system only a year later. And only two years after that, Bell was able to step away from the company’s board of directors to devote his life to further invention and philanthropy. At age 32, he was rich and famous and able to pursue other interests, including optical telecommunications, hydrofoils, and aeronautics. When Bell died in Nova Scotia in 1922, aged 75, his incredible achievements were recognized across North America. All phone service in the United States and Canada was shut down for one minute at the exact time his funeral began.

A family familiar with deafness:

•Bell was named after his grandfather, Alexander Bell, but was called “Aleck” by his family and friends during his childhood.

•Both his father and grandfather were speech therapists, and both his mother and wife were deaf. As a young man, Alexander helped his father promote a phonetic alphabet known as Visible Speech.

Despite her deafness, Bell's mother was a proficient pianist. Her life and accomplishments taught Alexander Graham Bell how to look beyond people’s disadvantages and find ways to help them.

Non-Electric Early Renewable Energy powered Car (Bennett Buggy).  ;D

Bennett buggy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Bennett buggy was a term used in Canada during the Great Depression to describe a car which had its engine and windows taken out and was pulled by a horse. In the United States, such vehicles were known as Hoover carts, named after then-President Herbert Hoover.[1][2]

The Canadian term was named after Richard Bennett, the Prime Minister of Canada from 1930 to 1935, who was blamed for the nation's poverty.

Cars being pulled by horses became a common sight during the Depression. During the boom years of the 1920s, many Canadians had bought cheap vehicles for the first time, but during the depression, many found they did not have enough money to operate them. This was especially true in the hard-hit Prairie Provinces. The increased poverty played an important role, as farmers could not buy gasoline. The price of gas also increased. Gas taxes were also one of the best sources of revenue for the provincial governments. When these provinces went into a deficit, they increased these taxes, making gas even harder to buy.

In Saskatchewan, badly hit by the depression, similar vehicles with an additional seat over the front axle were dubbed "Anderson carts" after Premier James T. M. Anderson.

Did Anne Frank’s Family Try to Leave Europe during WWII? ???

About a year before Anne Frank began writing in her diary in June 1942, her father was fervently writing to family and friends in the United States, asking for help. Otto Frank hoped that someone could help his family escape from their perilous plight in Nazi-occupied Holland. In 2007, the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research in New York City released 65 documents -- typed letters, handwritten notes, and a telegram -- detailing Otto Frank's ultimately unsuccessful efforts to secure visas to the United States, and later, to Cuba. By June 1940, the U.S. Department of State had toughened its visa application process. Candidates had to show "a good reason" for seeking admittance, not just a desire to leave Europe.

A family desperate for somewhere to go:

•The State Department tightened regulations in order to reduce the number of immigrant visas being granted. In the early 1940s, there were national security concerns, a fear of foreigners, and, some have argued, anti-Semitism.

•Although he was unable to get visas for his family to travel to the United States, Otto Frank did receive a Cuban visa for himself on 1 December 1941. Ten days later, Germany declared war on the United States and the visa was canceled.

•The Frank family went into hiding in 1942. They were eventually discovered and sent to concentration camps, where Anne Frank and her sister, Margot, died of typhus and their mother, Edith, died of starvation.

Agelbert NOTE: This belongs here because Professor Hudson discusses the tremendously important economics tool called, "Debt Relief". It is as old as the Old Testament (see: Jubilee years) and has been the KEY to successful societies for thousands of years. When Capitalism completely eliminated the Debt Relief tool for all but the plutocratic elite, eventual massive inequality and unavoidable collapse was locked in. Simply put, societies are dysfunctional without periodic debt relief to level the economics playing field across the board.

Enjoy and learn about key historical events discussed here. Wall Street and business schools work overtime to make us think those events "never happened" with an entire doublethink vocabulary of economics sleight of hand terms.  >:(

Michael Hudson discusses "Junk Economics" at The Democracy Collaborative


Published on Feb 27, 2017

Renowned Economist Michael Hudson   joined us for lunch on February 22 to discuss his new book "J is for Junk Economics: A Guide to Reality in an Age of Deception." Hudson will be working with the Next System Project on a new initiative that revolves around money and banking. Be on the look out for more!

Hudson is a Research Professor of Economics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City as well as at Peking University. He is a prolific writer and author of many books, notably "Killing the Host: How Financial Parasites and Debt Bondage Destroy the Global Economy."

Thomas Jefferson was a wise, if flawed, man. He was quite perceptive about the future of this nation.

Quote
He thought that his cherished federal union, the world’s first democratic experiment, would be destroyed by slavery. 
https://www.monticello.org/site/plantation-and-slavery/thomas-jefferson-and-slavery

He didn't really understand the economics of Capitalism. Mr. Jefferson did not realize that the model of economics that extracts profit (i.e. excess value from a given activity) from the labor of a human, be it under overt slavery or subsistence wage type disguised slavery, inexorably leads to a massive underclass that resents a privileged elite that never tires of extracting as much as "the rigged free market" will bear, with a total disregard for human dignity.

Eventually the resulting empathy deficit disordered plutocracy destroys a nation.

Jefferson was right about slavery eventually destroying this country. He was wrong to think it would be limited (except as a parasitic elite divide and conquer tactic  ;)  ) to those with excessive melanin syndrome.

Elite Capitalists aren't prejudiced; they'll screw anybody. 

Before Mr. Jefferson died, he wrote something that predicted the sad future of our time rather well:

Quote

"The coincidence of a marked principle, moral and political, with a geographical line, once conceived, I feared would never more be obliterated from the mind; that it would be recurring on every occasion and renewing irritations, until it would kindle such mutual and mortal hatred, as to render separation preferable to eternal discord. I have been among the most sanguine in believing that our Union would be of long duration. I now doubt it much, and see the event at no great distance, and the direct consequence of this question; not by the line which has been so confidently counted on -- the laws of nature control this; but by the Potomac, Ohio and Missouri, or more probably, the Mississippi upwards to our northern boundary. My only comfort and confidence is, that I shall not live to see this; and I envy not the present generation the glory of throwing away the fruits of their fathers' sacrifices of life and fortune, and of rendering desperate the experiment which was to decide ultimately whether man is capable of self-government. This treason against human hope will signalize their epoch in future history as the counterpart of the medal of their predecessors." --Thomas Jefferson to William Short, 1820. ME 15:247

Was Trump's Civil War Remark Racist or Clueless?


Published on May 2, 2017

Big Picture Panel: Sam Sacks, The District Sentinel News Co-op & Bryan Pruitt, RedState. Trump gets Andrew Jackson and Civil War all wrong. Panel also looks at Trump’s strange behavior and the looming shutdown.

Agelbert NOTE: I agree with Thom that Andrew Jackson was a genocidal maniac who ignored the Supreme Court when he FORCED the Cherokees, loyal U.S. Citizens, out of Georgia at gun point (Trail of Tears). Perhaps that is why Trump admires Jackson so much.

What Was the Subject of the World’s First Photographically-Illustrated Book?

English botanist Anna Atkins was the first person to publish a book illustrated with photographic images, but she didn’t use a camera. In 1843, building upon the recent discovery of cyanotype photography, she produced detailed scientific images by placing objects on light-sensitized paper and exposing them to sunlight. Her main interest at the time was algae -- in particular, seaweed -- and she made hundreds of cyanotype photograms that were contact-printed for her self-published 1843 book Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions.



Seeing nature in a different light:

•Some call Atkins the world’s first female photographer, but others dispute that accolade because she didn’t actually use a camera.

•Sir John Herschel invented the cyanotype photographic printing process in 1842. Also known as "sun prints," the process involves exposing a mixture of ammonium iron citrate and potassium ferricyanide to ultraviolet light. The exposed paper turns Prussian blue, similar to a blueprint.

Botanist Algae Scientist Anna Atkins 

•Atkins produced three volumes of Photographs of British Algae between 1843 and 1853. Only 17 copies are known to still exist.

I agree with this take on Fox News, which has done a great deal of harm. Imho though, it started with Rush, even earlier. The popularity of these horrible people and shows says a lot about how delusional most Americans really are.


Well said. When it started has been documented. It began shortly after the Powel memo was written. The Powell memo is the root of the Orwellian mindset that takes the responsibility of the government (see U.S. Constitution capitalized Welfare clause) to provide for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness the social programs that benefit the entire populace (SS, Medicare, Anti-Trust laws, unemployment compensation, maternity leave, sick leave, LIVABLE minimum wage, progressive taxation, collective bargaining rights, etc.) as an attack (rather than the actual and proven BENEFIT that all these improvements have brought to our nation) on "business", which they cleverly give the Orwellian label of "Free Enterprise". What these fascists wanted was a government they could control to control the workers (selective law enforcement) and allow monopolies to be formed and crush all competition in order to concentrate wealth in fewer and fewer hands AND make sure the elite crooks and liars doing this nefarious nation destroying and pulverizing of individual freedom and liberty of the people have TOTAL FREEDOM TO EXPLOIT WITHOUT CONSCIENSE THE PEOPLE AND THE  PLANET.

The Capitalist Oligarchs that planned this attack on we-the-people to rip away from us all of our freedoms have pretty much succeeded.

States named Sequoyah, Lincoln, Jefferson and Superior that might've been, but never came to be

In 1898, the Curtis Act abolished tribal courts and governments in the Indian Territory of Oklahoma, affecting about 90 million acres of land that Native Americans had accumulated through treaties with the U.S. government.

In response, members of the so-called "Five Civilized Tribes" -- the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Muscogee (Creek), Cherokee, and Seminole -- who had held sovereignty in the area joined forces, creating a constitution and taking steps to formally propose the creation of a state called Sequoyah to Congress.

That effort failed  :(, but at President Theodore Roosevelt’s  ;)  urging, Congress  combined the Indian Territory with the Oklahoma Territory to create Oklahoma, America’s 46th state, in 1907.   


Other would-be U.S. states:

An 1845 joint resolution by the U.S. Congress permitted as many as four new states to be carved out of the original state of Texas :o , including what might have become the state of Lincoln, located between the Rio Grande and Texas’ Colorado River .

In the early 1940s, a state called Jefferson -- made up of land carved out between California and Oregon -- was proposed by secessionists :o seeking independence.

As early as 1858, residents in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula sought to establish the state of Superior at a constitutional convention in the village of Ontonagon.

Eugene Debs and the Kingdom of Evil

Posted on Jul 16, 2017

By Chris Hedges

SNIPPET:

Quote
This was a period in U.S. history when many American Christians were socialists.  Walter Rauschenbusch, a Christian theologian, Baptist minister and leader of the Social Gospel movement, thundered against capitalism. He defined the six pillars of the “kingdom of evil” as “religious bigotry, the combination of graft and political power, the corruption of justice, the mob spirit (being ‘the social group gone mad’) and mob action, militarism[,] and class contempt.”

Debs turned to the Bible as often to Marx, arguing “Cain was the author of the competitive theory” and the “cross of Jesus stands as its eternal denial.” Debs’ fiery speeches, replete with words like “sin” and “redemption,” were often thinly disguised sermons. He equated the crucified Christ with the abolitionist John Brown. He insisted that Jesus came “to destroy class rule and set up the common people as the sole and rightful inheritors of the earth.” “What is Socialism?” he once asked. “Merely Christianity in action.”    He was fond of quoting the poet James Russell Lowell, who writes:

He’s true to God who’s true to man;
Whenever wrong is done.
To the humblest and the weakest,
’neath the all-beholding sun.
That wrong is also done to us,
And they are slaves most base,
Whose love of right is for themselves
And not for all the race.

A great comment:   

Jed Grover

In reading "The Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Mullins" it highlights how the powerful bankers targeted our system of laws long ago. As I read I could see strong correlations as to how we've been manipulated into our current Orwellian sick society. "Walter Rauschenbusch defined the six pillars of the “kingdom of evil” as “religious bigotry, the combination of graft and political power, the corruption of justice, the mob spirit (being ‘the social group gone mad’) and mob action, militarism[,] and class contempt.”

Excerpted from chapter 5 "Bauer Rothschild" was only thirty years of age when he invited twelve other wealthy and influential men to meet him in Frankfurt. His purpose was to convince them that if they agreed to pool their resources they could then finance and control the World Revolutionary Movement and use it as their Manual of Action to win ultimate control of the wealth, natural resources, and manpower of the entire world. This agreement reached, Mayer unfolded his revolutionary plan. The project would be backed by all the power that could be purchased with their pooled resources. By clever manipulation of their combined wealth it would be possible to create such adverse economic conditions that the masses would be reduced to a state bordering on starvation by unemployment... Their paid propagandists would arouse feelings of hatred and revenge against the ruling classes by exposing all real and alleged cases of extravagance, licentious conduct, injustice, oppression, and persecution. They would also invent infamies to bring into disrepute others who might, if left alone, interfere with their overall plans...

Rothschild turned to a manuscript and proceeded to read a carefully prepared plan of action. 1. He argued that LAW was FORCE only in disguise. He reasoned it was logical to conclude 'By the laws of nature right lies in force: 2. Political freedom is an idea, not a fact. In order to usurp political power all that was necessary was to preach 'Liberalism' so that the electorate, for the sake of an idea, would yield some of their power and prerogatives which the plotters could then gather into their own hands. 3. The speaker asserted that the Power of Gold had usurped the power of Liberal rulers .... He pointed out that it was immaterial to the success of his plan whether the established governments were destroyed by external or internal foes because the victor had to of necessity ask the aid of 'Capital' which 'Is entirely in our hands' 4. He argued that the use of any and all means to reach their final goal was justified on the grounds that the ruler who governed by the moral code was not a skilled politician because he left himself vulnerable and in an unstable position. 5. He asserted that 'Our right lies in force. The word RIGHT is an abstract thought and proves nothing. I find a new RIGHT... to attack by the Right of the Strong, to reconstruct all existing institutions, and to become the sovereign Lord of all those who left to us the Rights to their powers by laying them down to us in their liberalism. 6. The power of our resources must remain invisible until the very moment when it has gained such strength that no cunning or force can undermine it. He went on to outline twenty-five points. Number 8 dealt with the use of alcoholic liquors, drugs, moral corruption, and all vice to systematically corrupt youth of all nations. 9. They had the right to seize property by any means, and without hesitation, if by doing so they secured submission and sovereignty. 10. We were the first to put the slogans Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity into the mouths of the masses, which set up a new aristocracy. The qualification for this aristocracy is WEALTH which is dependent on us. 11. Wars should be directed so that the nations engaged on both sides should be further in our debt. 12. Candidates for public office should be servile and obedient to our commands, so that they may readily be used. 13. Propaganda-their combined wealth would control all outlets of public information. 14. Panics and financial depressions would ultimately result in World Government, a new order of one world government."

Interesting ..... is how this history is so well documented and how they've pulled it off right before our own eyes. Manufactured consent is an age old game. MSM sucks. I do hope that we can all unite because that is the only cure. Everyone. Sorry bout the length.

Exactly. These evil bastards plan ahead. They rig the laws and then claim they are just following the laws that "the people" voted for. Like the polluters, these Capitalist Greed balls are estopped from absolutely any claim to innocence or good will (see below).

"There is a nice legal concept called estoppel. If you argue that you didn't kill the Major in the library with the Ming vase because you were in bed with his wife, you are estopped from pleading self-defence. In the same way, polluters are estopped from arguing that they were only complying with public policy as laid down in the law, because they spent tens of millions shaping those policies and laws to their advantage." James Wimberley

VERY soon the empathy deficit disordered oligarchs destroying lives and degrading the biosphere will reach the end of their ruthless people and nature trashing spree.
