Government Printing of Dollars Should Be Illegal

     In "How I Saved the Dollar", posted on March 22nd 2014, I introduced my idea of having a Great American Auction which would sell all illegitimate government to the highest bidders of gold.  Then, I would save the dollar by privatizing all proceeds from that auction uniformly according to every dollar.

This mechanism is a very simple way to go about getting rid of irrational government and restore value to the most widely used currency in America.  However, there is a dangerous threat to your dollars' value that the present administration is maliciously exploiting.  That nemesis is inflation.

Every time government prints a dollar, or presses a button that adds one digital unit to an American currency number, it depreciates every dollar you own.  Some economists may argue that government should have the capability to "replenish" dollar bills that get too old or are physically destroyed.  However, I argue that it should not.  If government has any ability to "make" dollars, it will usually lead to runaway inflation--which history has shown over and over again.

As speculation on the revaluation of dollars after the upcoming Great American Auction, the gross dollars in existence have a capital value.  Whenever a dollar out there is destroyed, it adds value to everyone who owns one or more dollars as savings.  In effect, an inability of government to print or digitize more dollars acts as extra interest on everyone's savings accounts each time a dollar is destroyed.

In an economy that has compromised every secure place to maintain one's money in the world, the restoration of high interest bank accounts by banning government money "creation" should be a policy priority.  The Great American Auction is coming.  Already, businessmen are accumulating gold supplies, and assessing state and federal illegitimate government values.  Let's defang the contemporary government's ability to undermine America's future, and...bring...savings...back!

The Choice in Medicine

     There is a flaw in the strategy of winning a political battle simply by defeating "Obamacare".  What will it be replaced with?  Will it just go back to semi-socialized medicine, as it was before?

Philosophically, there are only two stable (and opposite) systems.  Government Health Care is one--which America is hurtling towards today.  And, the other is Capitalist Medicine.

A country has to choose.  To try to have parts of both will send it down the slippery slope that defaults in Government Health Care.

Government Health Care is not free medicine for life.  It is government deciding when and how you will die.  With the reality of limited medical supplies, Government Health Care is death panel murder.

Capitalist Medicine, on the other hand, is medical freedom, individual self-empowerment, and free market opportunity to work in the field of medicine if that is one's aspiration.

The issue of the Rights of doctors and medical field workers is evaded way too often.  Do the quick-kill mentalities of those who want welfare shots, IVs and blood draws, even if it destroys America, justify the destruction of the careers of these noble professionals?

Missing Plane: A Cover-Up, As Such?

     How does a well-maintained 777 jet airliner just disappear without anyone knowing what happened to it or where it went to?  My guess is that the government of China did it.

America launched a massive, multi-front war over four plane hijackings that has wrecked its economy, and bogged it down in military slogs and quagmires halfway around the world.

At the beginning of the month, Russia went on a military offensive that presented an imminent threat to Europe and American interests--necessitating the positioning of responsive military assets to prepare for what could happen next.

Through I have not kept up on international military news much in Asia lately, back in the mid part of the last decade, I remember, repeatedly, reading about the aggressive buildup and modernization of the Chinese military that its government was undergoing.

So, considering how touchy America is about terrorism, what if it became necessary to go to war with predominantly muslim Malaysia and/or Indonesia?  Something happened to an airliner carrying Americans over muslim skies, and of course the far and distant country of China didn't cause it--as the plane's destination was supposed to be Beijing.

Personally, I believe that the whole fiasco is what I call a "cover-up, as such".  The American government figured out it was China.  China doesn't want to pay for what it has done (perhaps by forfeiting America's national debt to that country).  And, the American leadership doesn't want to publicly disclose the evidence it has that it was China because it is afraid of another war.

Ask yourself who stands to gain by the transfer of nearby American resources to a destructive war in the Southwestern Pacific?  That inductive recognition is worth more than any flight record black box that may eventually be found.

How I Saved the Dollar

     Ayn Rand wrote of the power of ideas to shape history.  And, with the following words, I will have made a major impact upon the U.S. economy, as well as all those who own dollars in the entire world.  This is how I did it:

The paper dollar's value hinges upon the belief that others will view it as a tradable commodity despite the fact that, recently, it really was only worth the value of its use as paper tinder to start a campfire with.  That is...until tonight.

The dollar can be saved.  However, it will not last for long if government possesses gold with simply some "promise" to liquidate it upon everyone's demand.  That has been tried and look what always happens.  What the United States needs is a Great American Auction.

The Great American Auction involves putting up 51 lots of soon to be private property to be transferred to the highest gold bidder in each one.  All "government infrastructure" except for that which had resided in Objectivist defined, legitimate sectors are to be sold.  The sectors that are exempted are military, judiciary, police, diplomatic, and treasury.  Everything else is thrown into each lot--50 lots that were in the former jurisdiction of each state, and one big one that was federal.

Only privately owned gold can be bid.  And, there must be proof that if a bidder wins all that one bids, one will be able to deliver.  Now to your dollars.

The sum of all the dollars in existence will have to be assessed.  Once the exact mass of gold from the Great American Auction is accumulated, through simple math, the quantity of gold will be divided up evenly according to each dollar.  Then the government will completely, securely privatize the holdings (such as by sending the gold claims to banks and dollar liquidation businesses).

The fact that the vital sectors of government are currently more bloated than they really should be, ought to insure that the legitimate government does not implode before enough, voluntary, private donations to the U.S. treasury (which will send the funding to the other valid sectors of government) kick in.

The Great American Auction is not an Objectivist, Ayn Rand idea.  It is mine that extends from my study of the philosophy.  Who knows how long it will be until those baseless pieces of paper in your bank account are worth something?  But, for you, tomorrow should be a brighter day because they will be...and that...is what value...is made of.

Islam, Burglary, and Other Religions

     There exists, in the United States Constitution, the First Amendment that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."  However, how does one define religion?  Is religion simply a group of people declaring that they are directed by "God", no matter what beliefs and activities are associated with it?  Must the American government abstain from interfering with all those who declare themselves religious--no matter what follows?

To illustrate the point I want to make, imagine a ring of thieves.  The leader of this burglary group writes a book about his beliefs and declares that he was inspired by "God".  The plans he has for a big heist are the will of "God"; and no one can oppose it without violating the burglars' religion.  It is written that: "There is only one God, and the burglar is his prophet."  When the American government confronts the burglary believers, they argue that it cannot interfere with the group in any way because of Freedom of Religion in America.

Do you see something wrong with this?  It is not the declaration of "God" related activities that protects people.  It is the existence of "God" declared activities that are also in accordance with the rest of the Constitution, and, secondarily, lower law that prevents government from interfering with them.

So, apply this argument to the "religion" of islam.  muslims teach toddlers to hate America and the West (which alone is actually not illegal).  But, when you combine that antagonism with what the koran preaches, it negates any kind of Freedom of Religion protection that a civil religion, such as Christianity, maintains.

I mean, seriously, do you really think that the American Constitution legalizes: offensively killing "non-believers" with swords and guns, intimidating those who survive into forced conversion to islam, killing off those who have some rational integrity after they have surrendered, cutting off heads as a standard execution tactic, taking all the private property away from the ones who are left living, beginning a process of indoctrinating the new geography that is conquered, and then continuing the spread of the virus of islam forward into history?
