Thorium as a nuclear fuel

Thorium, as well as uranium and plutonium, can be used as fuel in a nuclear reactor. A thorium fuel cycle offers several potential advantages over a uranium fuel cycle including much greater abundance on Earth, superior physical and nuclear properties of the fuel, enhanced proliferation resistance, and reduced nuclear waste production.^[14] Nobel laureate Carlo Rubbia at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), has worked on developing the use of thorium as a cheap, clean and safe alternative to uranium in reactors. Rubbia states that a tonne of thorium can produce as much energy as 200 tonnes of uranium, or 3,500,000 tonnes of coal.^[15][16] One of the early pioneers of the technology was U.S. physicist Alvin Weinberg at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee, who helped develop a working nuclear plant using liquid fuel in the 1960s.

In 1997 the U.S. Energy Department underwrote research into thorium fuel, and research was also begun in 1996 by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), to study the use of thorium reactors. Nuclear scientist, Alvin Radkowsky, of Tel Aviv University in Israel, founded a consortium to develop thorium reactors, which included other companies: Raytheon Nuclear Inc., Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow.^[17] Radkowsky was chief scientist in the U.S. nuclear submarine program directed by Admiral Hyman Rickover and later headed the design team which built the world's first civilian nuclear power plant at Shippingport, Pennsylvania, which was a scaled-up version of the first naval reactor.^[17]

Some countries, including India, are now investing in research to build thorium-based nuclear reactors. Anil Kakodkar, chairman of the Indian Atomic Energy Commission, said in 2009 that his country has a "long-term objective goal of becoming energy-independent based on its vast thorium resources."^[18][19] In May 2010, researchers from Ben-Gurion University in Israel and Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York, received a grant to develop a thorium-based, self-sustaining light water reactor^[20] that will produce and consume about the same amounts of fuel.^[20] In the U.S., NASA scientist and thorium expert Kirk Sorensen calls it the "next giant leap" in energy technology, noting that the "potential energy in thorium is staggering," explaining how just 8 tablespoons of thorium could provide the energy used by an American during his or her lifetime.^[21][22]

The Most High, the title that depicts God as the sovereign ruler of the world enthroned high above his dominion, gave the nations their inheritance.

He alone sets the boundaries of the peoples of the world for His purpose.  From one man he made every nation of men that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.

God is the final authority! He is the creator of all things. Because He sent His Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins, we have Life and the Liberty to choose the course we will pursue seeking Happiness in our lives.  Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented.

The United States of America is here for a purpose. We are to show the world as our forefathers did that “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

This sculpture of Moses holding the Ten Commandments reigns over the Supreme Court building. It symbolizes that the basis of our legal system is the Judeo-Christian values found in the Bible, both the Hebrew and Christian Bible.  Christians who founded America saw themselves as heirs to the Hebrew Bible using the Ten Commandments and its moral standards as the basis of the laws serving as a guide for the behavior of a secular society, but recognizing the need for the Christian Bible and the acceptance of Jesus Christ to provide the moral guidance for individuals to live in harmony. Thus, the Holy Spirit is the true guiding light of the American culture sustaining our belief in universal, not relative, morality. God is part of our culture. We believe that every individual and America as a nation must answer morally to this God.  

Without teaching our heirs the Christian Religion as the basis of the founding of our country we could never expect this experiment in the republican form of government to succeed, for without internal moral guidance the desire for pleasure becomes the controlling influence of individual behavior. We have the freedom and ability to vote for our legislature and leaders. This offers the opportunity for the elected officials to buy votes catering to this desire for pleasure.

The result as we see today is anarchy. A few corrupt powerful legislators are extending an unwarrantable jurisdiction over the rest of the nation. The passage of laws providing benefits to specific groups of people and judicial interpretation of legal issues based on precedence without returning to the constraints of the Constitution result in unequal treatment for individuals which is not acceptable. All laws passed by the legislature should apply equally to all citizens of the United States of America and the Constitution is the standard by which those laws are used to settle disputes in the courts of law. No single judge or panel of judges has the right to change the Constitution or amendments thereto based on precedence.

I accept your beliefs as individuals, and will not question why you have them, as in matters of conscience all men are free. All I ask is that you accept mine, and live in harmony. We are allowed every opportunity to enjoy the freedom and all this country has to offer.  As a Christian Nation this is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE and of Right we expect immigrants to assimilate into our culture and visitors to respect our laws, beliefs, and values.

ENGLISH is the language mainly spoken here. If you wish to become part of our society learn the language, do not expect us to accept the everyday use of a foreign language which will divide our culture.

We are one nation under God with Liberty and Justice for all.  We recognize that God is in control of everything. We believe in a judging, loving and forgiving God who holds every individual accountable for their own thoughts and actions.  We are not a society ruled by the clergy or any established national religion but we are a nation in crisis as Secular Humanism is being forced upon us. 

"When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is composed of two characters.
One represents danger and the other represents opportunity."
President John F. Kennedy, speech to United Negro College Fund, Indianapolis, Ind., April 12, 1959

Some might say we have reached a "crucial point" in our decision making process and they would be correct as well for in either case change will occur.  Appeasement is the failure to take action in the face of fear; leadership is the ability to provide a vision for what needs to be accomplished and to take action to achieve it.

We are the generation of his future to arrive at the point feared by a founder of the Harvard Law School Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, who wondered if we could survive as a nation if we did not “teach our children about religion and morality as restraints upon the liberal sensual desires of freemen”.

As a nation we have not established our national identity and communicated it to the world or even our own children. As a result we have lost the character, the vision and the Spirit that brought 13 states in the wild frontier to the leadership position of the world.  Our God given freedoms are being taken from us.

Freedom is a wonderful thing, but it does not come free. We must “Take Action” to protect the Freedom we enjoy.

God Save the USA!

Listen to Murray's song by the same name.  His paintings are awesome! Please take a moment and watch and pray for our nation without ceasing. 

I love God!  I love my country.  It is time for the people of America to stand up and be counted as a Christian nation before we loose the rights that God has so richly blessed us with. Who will stand with me and "TAKE ACTION" to save our country? 

Editorial posted on the Washington Post-On May 12, 2011:

“President Obama is trying to hit the reset button on his outreach efforts to the world’s Muslims. He would do better to focus on aggressively promoting freedom rather than pandering to Islam.

The first round of outreach - kicked off by Mr. Obama’s June 2009 speech in Cairo - was a spectacular failure. Opinion polling on sentiment towards the United States in countries with Muslim majorities showed an initial burst of enthusiasm, followed in 2010 by a collapse. In some cases, Muslim approval of America fell to levels lower than during the waning days of the George W. Bush administration.

Now the White House is using the timing of Osama bin Laden’s death to argue that al Qaeda’s violent approach to political change is passe, and that the popular uprisings sweeping the Middle East represent the wave of the future. However, al Qaeda already has answered this argument.

In the Spring 2011 edition of the terror group’s English-language magazine Inspire, the lead editorial by Yahya Ibrahimnotes that a “line that is being pushed by Western leaders is that because the protests in Egypt and Tunisia were peaceful, they proved al Qaeda - which calls for armed struggle - to be wrong. That is another fallacy. Al Qaeda is not against regime changes through protests but it is against the idea that the change should be only through peaceful means to the exclusion of the use of force.”

Of course, not all change occurring in the Middle East is peaceful. U.S. and NATO warplanes support armed rebels inLibya, and al Qaeda notes that this vindicates their views on violence. “If the protesters in Libya did not have the flexibility to use force when needed,” Mr. Ibrahim says, “the uprising would have been crushed.” This point is also being proved in Syria, where the United States has been deaf to desperate pleas from dissidents being mowed down by regime troops with the assistance of Iran. No mere speech by Mr. Obama will bring a springtime of freedom to Damascus.

Mr. Obama’s fixation on the means by which change is coming also overlooks that the substance of the change may be precisely what al Qaeda has always advocated. The White House has pushed for the participation of religiously-based parties in Egypt’s new government, but if the Muslim Brotherhood comes to power in Cairo, it will pursue domestic and foreign policies indistinguishable from those bin Laden deputy Ayman al-Zawahri would implement if he were in charge. Islamism is the objective, whether achieved by bombs or ballots.

Mr. Ibrahim says that in al Qaeda’s opinion, “the revolutions that are shaking the thrones of dictators are good for the Muslims, good for the mujahidin and bad for the imperialists of the West and their henchmen in the Muslim world.” He says the terrorists, “are very optimistic and have great expectations of what is to come.”

This optimism is not unfounded. Mr. Obama should shift his focus from pandering to Muslim sensibilities to helping shape the outcome of the changes sweeping the Middle East in a way that reflects American values.

The United States is not at war with Islam, but neither should our nation be promoting it. America has traditionally advocated the principles of freedom of conscience and individual liberty, concepts that are in dire need of support in most Muslim states. Taking an unadulterated stand for freedom in the Middle East would be the most gutsy move Mr. Obama could make.”

I've had it with government spending.  People who are given money (including welfare/food stamp recipients), don't give a darn about how they spend it, and it's now more apparent then ever.

Do we see the debt ceiling for what it is, or are we "Slaves to Words"? No substantial reforms.

Cut the spending. http://bit.ly/mFIPw3

THOMAS SOWELL: SLAVES TO WORDS

This week the so-called "National Debt Ceiling" hit its congressionally
established limit of over $14 trillion. For every person in the United States,
that's $45,300 each!

How can the American people settle for "substantial reforms" in lieu of holding
the debt ceiling at its current limit? When was the last time Americans believed
elected officials would keep their word?

Posted on Floyd Reports-By Kevin “Coach” Collins-On May 16, 2011:

“Speaking in a snarky tone last week, Barack Obama asked a gathering of El Paso Hispanics if they thought the Republicans wanted an alligator-filled moat on the Mexican border. This attempt at bravado from a man who knows very well what the problems of our southern border are (because he created and/or maintains many of them) was unbecoming, even for a low-rent character like Obama.

The irony of making disparaging remarks about the dangers posed by the failed state of Mexico in El Paso was apparently completely lost on Obama and his teleprompter. Last June, El Paso was fired upon by shooters stationed in Juarez, Mexico, a dung heap just across the border. In all, as many as seven rounds may have hit the El Paso City Hall in the downtown area.  Apologists for the Mexicans found it hard to downplay the malicious intent of the shooting, because the rounds struck home at around 5 o’clock on a busy afternoon.

Of course, Obama did not go to El Paso to speak truthfully about the need to secure our southern border. He went there to pander to the Hispanic community, because he is losing its support and without it he can not be reelected. He is frightened and desperate.

Obama’s support numbers among Hispanics have dropped steadily and considerably since he got 67 percent of their vote in 2008.  In 2010, the percentage of Hispanics voting Democrat had fallen to 60 percent, and two recent polls show Obama’s Hispanic support at just 54 percent.

Obama has moved into high gear pandering toward the Hispanic community.

Last month he told the graduates of  Miami Dade College (which happens to be the most Hispanic college in America) the DREAM Act which is a backdoor scheme to grant amnesty to illegal aliens is not dead. He looked a group of highly educated Hispanics in the eyes and lied to them, hoping he could make them forget he couldn’t pass it with a lame duck senate.

Schumer sees Hispanics as Fools and the Rest of us as Dopes:

Speaking to the National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast and Conference last Thursday, Chuck Schumer brazenly said passing immigration reform (read amnesty) “will substantially improve, wages and working conditions for all Americans.” Moments later Schumer managed to pander to those who believe in amnesty and stoke the fires of class warfare without taking a second breath when he added,  “If we do this in conjunction with the program that allows people already here to obtain cards so they can work, we would take away the supply of illegal workers.” He added, “There are unscrupulous employers who’ve exploited this chief source of [illegal] labor to increase profits while depressing wages for American workers.”

Some in the Beltway might see Obama as unbeatable, but I don’t think he himself sees thing that way.”

Note:  In order for President Obama and his minions to be able to finalize the transformation of our country he must be re-elected in 2012 because I believe that the next step in the transformation process includes bringing on the next collapse that will be accomplished by suffocating and smothering our economy, which is already built into all the recent legislative reforms and regulatory changes that will take effect in 2013 or shortly thereafter.

I also believe that part of their transformation strategy includes the use of Hispanics, African Americans, union thugs and our youth as pawns, with the help of the main stream media, to push their unrelenting racial and/or class propaganda as a means of dividing our country to the point of causing civil unrest and an uprising because this would allow the President to declare “Marshal Law”, as a means of completely doing away with our “Constitution Of The United States Of America” and/or “Bill of Rights”, and take over as our country’s dictator, which would be the final step in their transformation process. 

We, as God, family and country loving Americans, must remain cool, vigilant and keep our eyes on the ball, which is to take our country back, and not be distracted by the relentless propaganda being fed to us on a daily basis.

Posted on Forbes-By Bill Flax-On on May 17, 2011:

“The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion.” – Karl Marx

Recently I was privileged to speak before a ladies book club. Midway through, a former English professor announced with an assurance only an academic could accomplish that “Jesus was a communist. That is just a fact.”

A similar notion was recently advanced by a Forbes contributor, Richard Salsman. Salsman holds a negative view of Christian values, considers sacrifice a “vice,” and even begrudges honoring our war dead. But what similarities do Marxism and Christianity share?

Frederick Engels, Karl Marx’s sidekick and benefactor, eulogized that Marx’s greatest insight was, “men must first of all eat, drink, have shelter and clothing before they can pursue politics, science, art, religion and the like.”

Jesus asserted the opposite disavowing that faith is predicated on bodily well-being, “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ . . . But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness” (Matthew 6:31-33).

Biblically, body and soul are distinct. The vibrant Christianity seen throughout history even as believers endured deprivation or persecution irrefutably contradicts the Marxian materialist stance. Tertullian pronounced, “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.” The prodigal son didn’t return with his belly full.

Marxists require secular, materialist explanations for everything, but there is no scriptural basis for these severe restrictions on permissible avenues of thought. From this irreconcilable beginning, biblical doctrine and Marxist theory diverge still further.

Marx sought to replace the Christian worldview with a vile substitute. His rejection ran deeper than the oft quoted jibe, “Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.”

He admitted, “My object in life is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism.” He thought Christianity reflected a palliative used by the rich to constrain workers so they wouldn’t revolt. To Marx, church and family presented obstacles to Utopia. The hierarchical society affirmed by Scripture prevented the rise of the proletariat.

Marx’s writings reveal undeniable, but antithetical parallels with Scripture, a deliberate replacement meant to expunge Christianity from society. To wit, Marx even employed religious themed legerdemain. Atheism, whether Marxist or Objectivist, relies on faith too, it just requires drastically different metaphysical assumptions.

The Marxist dialectic redefines good and evil. Sin changed from rebellion against God into striving for individual ends as opposed to the collective. The institution of property rights represented original sin.

Communism supplanted the Garden of Eden with a Rousseauian primitive man at harmony with nature, the genesis of environmental worship’s close ties to Marxism today. Marx even incorporated a millenarian view of history as an evolving class struggle finally solved by the coming victory of the proletariat. Utopia represents Heaven, ultimately created on Earth – by man. The collectivist state becomes god.

This man centered worldview was absorbed by the academy, media, entertainment industries and much of government. They now distill cultural Marxism, aka political correctness, to credulous Americans who thought we won the Cold War.

It’s not just that our perspectives are diametrically opposite, but Bible believing Christians and Marxists also seek fundamentally different goals. God’s judgment shows no favoritism. Everyone is equal in His sight, but God is no egalitarian. The word liberty appears sixteen times in the New Testament. Equality among men but twice: Matthew 20:12, pertaining to salvation in a parable which defends property rights; and 2 Corinthians 8:14.

The latter alludes to God sustaining Israel in the wilderness with manna. Paul instructs those of us more fortunate to voluntarily help others requiring assistance. Exodus highlights God’s view on public property: use only what you need. Don’t unnecessarily impose upon your neighbors. Worldly governments showering favored constituents with handouts lack the divine enforcement mechanism of making hoarded manna quickly rot.

Biblically, society is inhabited by unique, sovereign individuals made in God’s image and personally accountable to Him. Equality under the law stems from equality before God which always and everywhere negates equality of results. God is no respecter of persons. Nor should justice favor particular segments even if their cause is politically correct. Justice is measured by precision to God’s standards, not by the shifting goals of secular academics.

Moses said, “You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after many to pervert justice. You shall not show partiality to a poor man in his dispute” (Exodus 23:2-3). Not very proletarian.

Nowhere does Scripture task government with equalizing wealth. Not only is redistributing private property for political purposes immoral, it also undermines the God ordered notion of accountability. Without freedom to do either right or wrong, the moral basis dissolves. Dr. Ronald Nash observes, “Passages that oblige believers to use their resources for God’s purposes presuppose the legitimacy of private ownership.”

The Bible requires work, frugal living and honest dealings. It mandates impartial justice, sound money and property rights; plus endorses liberty and limited government – all essential elements of capitalism. Christ even used free market principles repeatedly in his teaching. Jesus clearly appreciated price signals and the role of incentives.

The parables of the talents and minas offer sage investment advice. It is prudent to entrust resources to those multiplying them and extract resources from those squandering them. This counters the Marxist principle of progressive taxation taking from the most productive to subsidize those wasting scarce resources. But Jesus used these essential lessons to illustrate spiritual truths, not finance.

Market based economics appear consistent with Christ’s teachings, however it is inappropriate to usurp divine authority by transforming Jesus into Adam Smith. The Bible unequivocally endorses certain elements of capitalism. And never does it disavow capitalism, only its impure application by corrupt participants; unless one equates free markets with Social Darwinism as do Marxists. But theirs is clearly neither a biblical perspective nor an accurate depiction.

Economics is not a Zero Sum Game. One’s gain does not necessitate another’s loss. Innovation, efficient profitable production and savings expand the pie. Consumption, malinvestment and waste shrink it.

Likewise, taking several verses describing a voluntary, communal living arrangement out of context to prescribe secular socialism defies logic. Those passages in Acts were descriptive more than prescriptive. Taking them otherwise throws out virtually everything else in Scripture. Frederick Engels saw this clearly, “If some few passages of the Bible may be favorable to communism, the general spirit of its doctrines is, nevertheless, totally opposed to it.”

The early church welcomed Jews and proselytes from the Diaspora back at Pentecost. These travelers pooled their possessions in loving fellowship fearing Jerusalem’s imminent destruction. There is no evidence this communal arrangement spread beyond Jerusalem or persisted long. None of the epistles indicates communal living.

Privately entrusting resources to St. Peter, in subservience to God, differs greatly from “robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul” through a distant bureaucratic apparatus inspired by the humanist god of power. The Bible never endorses involuntary socialism administered by secular governments.

American settlement sometimes involved religious communities experimenting with communal living. One famous example, the Mayflower Compact, was instituted at the insistence of their English sponsors. The Puritans rapidly abandoned communalism – “that conceit of Plato’s” – in favor of vigorous free enterprise, which proved both consistent with their strong religious sentiments, and a rapid path to prosperity.

To function, economic formulas must acknowledge man’s fallen nature. Here Marxists blunder badly. We aren’t lucky blobs of otherwise inert matter malleable to the state’s machinations. Man is inherently selfish going back to Adam, who had everything, yet still wanted more. Genesis reflects the earliest commentary on our nature and it reveals what remains today: a greedy, violent bunch prone to jealousy, sloth and vice.

Communism fails except as augmented by fear (and ultimately there too), because forging “New Socialist Man” remains forever beyond the state’s grasp. Only God can change men’s hearts. Our base instincts betray us. When we see someone slacking and still taking – we produce less. When we see others taking beyond their share – we take more too. Without private property and opportunities for profit through honest toil, living standards stagnate.

Any movement must deal with realities and thus superficial similarities with other systems will materialize, but properly understood, Marxism is the absolute denial of Christianity – precisely as Marx intended. Where Marxists seize power, Christians are always persecuted and atheism is enforced, usually at a steep cost.

I tried summarizing this for the ladies and would probably still be prattling on but the soft spoken women sitting next to the one pronouncing Jesus a communist simply said, “I lived in Communist Romania for thirty-one years. Don’t tell me about Communism . . . Communism is death.”

She defended freedom better than a hundred articles. If pictures are worth a thousand words, experience is worth millions.”

Posted on The Moral Liberal-By Bryan Fischer-On May 17, 2011:

“Moses is a figure who towers over biblical history and world history, widely recognized, even by secular sources, as the greatest lawgiver of all time.

His writings were frequently cited by the founders of Christianity, beginning with Christ himself. He is described as a“man of God,” and had the rare distinction of speaking with God face to face, “as a man speaks with a man.”

Here’s the kicker: when God called this man of faith, this giant of faith, he called him into politics.

God did not call him to start a church, or an evangelistic endeavor, or a soup kitchen. He called him to build and lead a nation. He called him to speak truth to political power and lead his people from political bondage to political freedom.

God called Moses to free his people from the heavy and oppressive hand of a tyrannical government which was taxing the labor of people beyond their ability to bear. (Note: do we need another Moses today or what?)

It’s time to get over this silliness we hear from many Christians, even Christian leaders, that Christians shouldn’t be involved in politics.

This view is foolish on its face, since it means that these folk actually seem to believe we should just turn over the running of the entire country, at every level, to atheists, pagans and secular fundamentalists.

Now this even can be a convenience for certain preachers, because they can continue to use the inevitable results of such godless leadership as sermon illustrations of just how bad things are, while at the same time condemning any people of faith who want to wade in and actually do something about cleaning up the mess.

Not only is this view foolish, it is dangerously unbiblical. To say that men of faith should not be involved in politics is to accuse God of malfeasance, since the biblical record shows he sent more people into politics than anybody.

Joseph, Moses, Joshua, all the judges, David, Solomon, all the kings of Judah, Nehemiah, Daniel, etc. etc., all of them were destined by God himself to make their impact in the world of public policy.

If the principle is that godly men shouldn’t be involved in politics, then God is history’s biggest offender. If Christian preachers are looking for someone to criticize for mixing faith and politics, they had best start with God. Good luck with that.

You can’t even get away from this truth by taking refuge in the prophets of old, since much of their messaging was addressed to kings and others in political power. And they not only had the cheek, as preachers, to publicly rebuke politicians, they even had the temerity to rebuke the politicians of other countries.

They knew that every bit of political power exercised by kings had been given to them by God, and that it was entirely appropriate to evaluate these politicians according to one simple set of criteria: were they using their political power to do what was good or what was evil in the sight of God?

And you can’t even escape this truth by turning to the pages of the New Testament. John the Baptist publicly rebuked Herod for his personal sexual and marital foibles. Jesus called Herod a “fox,” which was a metaphor for someone who is sly, sneaky and devious. He did not mean it as a compliment.

And Jesus openly clashed with the politicians of his day, the scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees and the whole Sanhedrin. And make no mistake, they were politicians one and all. They passed laws that affected the details of everyday life, and they had the power of arrest, incarceration, trial and punishment. The only reason they went to Pilate with regard to Jesus is that they wanted him dead and the death penalty was the only punishment they could inflict with Roman authorization.

We know from Romans 13 that all political power comes from God. Who should have a greater interest in how the power of God is used, or misused, than the people of God?

So let’s be done with this naive and simplistic idea that men of God should not be involved in politics. To borrow phraseology from C.S. Lewis, “God has not left that option open to us. He did not intend to.”

“No amount of throwing money at such problems (as the $787 Billion Obama stimulus attempted) is going to magic-a booming economy or viable green technology into existence.  No amount of word-magic is going to assure that 8% unemployment will never be reached if real economic principles are ignored.  It is capitalism and inventors that create goods and services and advances technology; NOT the childish dreams of progressive politicos.  In short, Emperor Obama, you’re not wearing any clothes."

Common Sense Vindicated AGAIN!

Obama-Stimulus Killed REAL JOBS

http://web.econ.ohio-state.edu/dupor/arra10_may11.pdf

            The (PDF) link above documents a study by economists Timothy Conley and Bill Dupor on the impact of the nearly $800 billion stimulus package passed early months in  the Obama Administration: the stimulus which we were guaranteed would ensure that the nation’s unemployment never would rise above 8%.

            Conley an Dupor’s exhaustive and detailed study (36 pages in summing up) results suggest that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) created or saved approximately 450,000 thousand state and local government jobs and destroyed or forestalled roughly one million private sector jobs.  The common sense verdict that government spending kills private sector jobs was vindicated by the study.  In other words, the most clear-cut principles of good economics from Henry Hazlitt’s Economics in One Lesson still hold true.

“The bad economist sees only what immediately strikes the eye; the good economist also looks beyond. The bad economist sees only the direct consequences of a proposed course; the good economist looks  also at the longer and indirect consequences. The bad economistsees only what the   effect of a given policy has been or will be on one particular group; the good economist inquires also what the effect of the policy will be on all groups.”

          According to the study, state and local government jobs were saved because the ARRA funds were largely used to offset state revenue shortfalls and mandated Medicaid increases.  Boosting private sector employment seems to have been an afterthought, if it ever occurred to anyone involved with ARRA at all.  The majority of destroyed/forestalled jobs were in growth industries including health, education, professional and business services.

Conley an Dupor suggest the possibility that, in absence of the ARRA, the vast majority of government workers (on average relatively well-educated) would have found private-sector employment had their jobs not been saved.  And across the board roughly 215 such jobs in the private sector were lost or forestalled for each government job saved or created.  Again these findings are consistent with other such studies done in the past four decades.  For example, a study of the impact of the green jobs program in Spain found that the government stimulus (subsidies) cost 2.2 real jobs in the private sector for every new green job created (more on this later).  All of this ties in with the famous Hazlitt “Broken Window Fallacy.”

http://www.fee.org/library/books/economics-in-one-lesson/

illustrating another common sense adage:  Government cannot create jobs.  When the government (through taxation) seeks to create jobs, these government-created jobs typically cost 2-3 real jobs in the real economy and sometimes more.
            Meanwhile foolish Keynesian economists (excuse my redundancy) such as the New York Times’ Paul Krugman have suggested that the problem with the stimulus is that it wasn’t big enough.  Krugman infamously has never been known to criticize a progressive (we must ‘progress’ beyond the ‘outdated and ill-conceived U.S. Constitution’ in order to ‘progress’ toward our Marxist-Socialist earthly utopia) boondoggle so long as sufficient debt is incurred.  Let us return to the well-documented Spanish green economy example.  In 1997 Spain had the most vigorous economy in Europe with less than 4% unemployment.  When the study was conducted it had the fifth worst and today it has the third worst economy in Europe with more than 20% unemployment.  What happened?  And what does that mean for the United States here and now?

            What happened was Spanish government interference in the up-to-then relatively free market Spanish economy.  Their government decided that 1998 was the time to begin a transformation to a green-jobs dominated lifestyle to ensure that Spain’s economy remained vigorous and strong.  As mentioned, on average 2.2 real jobs in the real economy were lost for every government-subsidized green job created. 

The average cost of each green job in American dollars was $676,000.  But the story gets worse.  Just as in America, the Spanish government is known for counting subsidized jobs of eight-week and four-month duration just as if they were real permanent jobs in the real economy.  At the end of the day the average green job lasted very little time.  Only 10% of them proved permanent.  Thus 22 real jobs in the real Spanish economy were lost for each of the rare permanent green jobs created.  By the way the average green job created paid $10-$14 per hour.  That’s what happened, that’s why Spain is in the doldrums now.  What it means to us, can be divided into two scenarios.

            First of all, some jobs were created in the private sector by the Obama 

stimulus . . . and a whole lot more private sector jobs were lost.  Just as in Spain among all the jobs in the private sector created by the stimulus, a lot of two-week jobs were counted by the Obama people as if they were real bona fide jobs in the real economy.  The only blessing is that a larger percentage of the government jobs created or saved here in America might prove permanent.  Secondly, the Spanish example is right on in another respect:  Barack Obama has promised/threatened to create five million new green-tech jobs in America.  Taking the Spanish example at its face that means the loss of eleven million real jobs in the private sector . . . and eventually it means only half-a-million permanent green jobs created to show for devastateing the economy.  What’s going on in Barack Obama's mind?

            What’s going on is that arrogance, ignorance and childish “word-magic”  have replaced adult common sense.  When we are children we discover that words have power and virtually every child enters a stage where he believes his words are magical and if he can only find the right words, express them the right way, repeat them the right number of times while shaking one’s fist or stamping one’s feet or lying on the ground turning blue . . . OPEN SESAME, Ala Kazam, PRESTO!  We’ll then be able to make the whole world respond to us and bring us what we want.  The green technology that Obama and the lunatic environmental fringe want is not yet available.  No amount of throwing money at such problems (as the $787 Billion Obama stimulus attempted) is going to magic-a booming economy or viable green technology into existence.  No amount of word-magic is going to assure that 8% unemployment will never be reached if real economic principles are ignored.  It is the sweat and effort and risk-taking of capitalists and inventors that create goods and services and advances technology; NOT the childish dreams of progressive politicos.  In short, Emperor Obama, you’re not wearing any clothes.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Posted on The Patriot Update-By Ann-Marie Murrell-On May 17, 2011:

“We’ve all seen the waves Attorney General Eric Holder has made over the years.  As head of the Department of Justice, he has gained public notoriety for his extreme dealings with everything from the Black Panther case to suing the state of Arizona.

A National Review article introduced America to Holder in November 2008, calling him a “conventional, check-the-boxes creature of the Left.”  The NRO editorial said: 

“He (Holder) is convinced justice in America needs to be ‘established’ rather than enforced; he’s excited about hate crimes and enthusiastic about the constitutionally dubious Violence Against Women Act; he’s a supporter of affirmative action and a practitioner of the statistical voodoo that makes it possible to burden police departments with accusations of racial profiling and the states with charges of racially skewed death-penalty enforcement; he’s more likely to be animated by a touchy-feely Reno-esque agenda than traditional enforcement against crimes; he’s in favor of ending the detentions of enemy combatants at Guantanamo Bay and favors income redistribution to address the supposed root causes of crime.”

So who exactly is Eric Holder?  Where did he come from, what is his background?  I thought learning about his past might help us understand what his plans might be for our future.

Eric Himpton Holder, Jr. was born in The Bronx, New York on January 21, 1951.  His parents, Miriam and Eric, emigrated from Barbados to America, where Miriam worked as a telephone operator and Eric was a real estate broker.

Eric, Jr. and his two younger brothers went to a predominantly white public school in Queens, which Holder says forced him to keep his “foot in both worlds”. 

After high school he went WAY over to the Left and attended Columbia University where he became active in civil rights.  (Obama also got his undergraduate degree from Columbia 10 years after Holder but they didn’t meet until 2004.)

At Columbia, Holder met his wife, Dr. Sharon Malone, who was attending Columbia Medical School after graduating from Harvard in 1981.  (Dr. Malone’s sister was civil rights activist Vivian Malone Jones, famous for her part in theStand in the Schoolhouse Door which led to integration at the University of Alabama.)

He received his bachelor’s in American history in 1973 and then attended Columbia Law School (while clerking for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and the Department of Justice’s Criminal Division).  Holder graduated law school in ’76 and soon after got a job with the Department of Justice in the ‘Attorney General’s Honors Program’.

The first U.S. president to take notice of Holder was actually President Reagan in 1988, when he nominated Eric to become an associate judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia (presiding over civil and criminal trials).

Clinton years:  Controversy Begins:

Holder’s next job was working for the Clinton administration where he served as the first black U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C (under Janet Reno). 

At the urging of Clinton, Holder created Lawyers for One America—a group for bringing “greater diversity to the law profession and increase pro bono work among the nations lawyers.”

Eric’s first major political controversy occurred when he and President Clinton gave last-minute pardons to some very unseemly people—including Weather Underground terrorists Susan Rosenberg and Linda Evans.  Rosenberg and Evans were friends of co-terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn and had been in jail for bombing American government facilities.

But for some reason, releasing terrorists took a backseat to the pardon of “fugitive financier” Marc Rich.

Marc, who had been wanted for extensive fraud, racketeering, and trading-with-the-enemy charges, was allegedly pardoned because his wife Denise’s generous donations to the Clintons.  Denise was a major donor to both Bill and Hillary’s legal-defense funds and also gave lots of cash to the Clinton library.

The last-minute pardon of Rich prompted Congressional investigation hearings, which concluded with House Government Reform Committee chairman Dan Burton saying that Holder had “played a significant role in facilitating the Rich pardon”.

After the hearings, Holder said “I’m done.  Public life’s over for me.  I had a moment in time.  That moment has passed.”

But his public life wasn’t over, and when President Bush took office Holder briefly served as Acting Attorney General until the confirmation of John Ashcroft.

Once Ashcroft took over in 2001, Eric went back to the private sector at a law firm where he represented clients like the National Football League (during the Michael Vick dog fighting investigation) and Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. Holder’s firm also represented Guantanamo inmates (although Holder “never participated directly” in the firm’s work) and the Swiss bank UBS AG (which he later recused himself from all legal matters when the U.S. government accused them of tax fraud.)

Obama Years & “Nation of Cowards”:

In 2007 Holder began working with then-Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign as a senior legal advisor.  He later again made history by becoming the first black Attorney General under the first black president.

Holder’s first bit of hot water occurred when giving a 2009 speech during Black History Month, calling the United States a “nation of cowards”.

“Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards”, he said. 

“Though race-related issues continue to occupy a significant portion of our political discussion and though there remain many unresolved racial issues in this nation, we average Americans simply do not talk enough with each other about race.”

In a strange twist of “pot calling the kettle black,” even Obama thought Holder had overstepped his liberal boundaries.

“I think it’s fair to say that if I had been advising my attorney general, we would have used different language,” Obama said.

In Part 2, I’ll go further into the work Eric Holder has done during the Obama years.  While maybe not as charismatic or outspoken as some members of the president’s staff, Holder silently keeps pushing that envelope and does so largely unnoticed.”

“All the Republican candidates should understand that the media will come after them with a ferocity that could be unprecedented. We’re seeing it already. If a Republican candidate criticizes the President, he or she is often branded as Racist.

Next year the Republican nominee will not only be competing against President Obama and the Democratic party but also against the mainstream media which is going to be even more committed to reelecting Mr. Obama than it was to electing him in the first place. That’s because a loss for Mr. Obama would reflect very poorly on the media. If Americans repudiate the liberal value system that many in the media embrace, that would be a personal affront to them.

Note:  I believe that part of this President and his minion’s transformation strategy includes the use of Hispanics, African Americans, union thugs, and our youth as pawns, with the help of the main stream media, to push their unrelenting racial and/or class propaganda as a means of dividing our country to the point of causing civil unrest and an uprising because this would allow the President to declare “Marshal Law”, as a means of completely doing away with our “Constitution Of The United States Of America” and/or “Bill of Rights”, and take over as our country’s dictator, which would be the final step in their transformation process. 

It is for this reason that I also believe that we, as God, family and country loving Americans, must keep our cool, remain vigilant and keep our eyes on the ball, which is to take our country back and not be distracted by the relentless propaganda being fed to us on a daily basis.
