Have The Rich Finally Lost It?

Have The Rich Finally Lost It?

Over the last several months the world has experienced a second phase of total financial collapse and massive unemployment. The Arab Spring started when the ordinary men and women in Egypt cried enough and now it spreads across the whole Muslim world. Capitalism, like its antithesis communism is clearly not working for anyone, with the [...]

2012: Keeping the Backside In the Chair

2012: Keeping the Backside In the Chair

With the burgeoning number of self-published success stories, and the discovery of new writers going full force in traditional and indy publishing, it’s clear the world is filled with people with the discipline to put in the time at the keyboard required for producing finished work. Yet “Backside in Chair” is always the challenge for [...]

The Road To Heaven Is Paved With Crass Commercialism

The Road To Heaven Is Paved With Crass Commercialism

I’ve raved before about my views on publishing, and particularly self-published work. The bottom line of my past ranting is that those who are good are being swamped and disadvantaged by the vocal majority—who are simply poor writers and poorly supported from a polished end product point of view. What’s more, there is no easily [...]

2012 Truth and Reconciliation Committee for America’s War on Terror

2012 Truth and Reconciliation Committee for America’s War on Terror

We are ten years away from a single world currency and one world laws-its globalism and we can’t stop it.  There are a lot of powerful people who made a lot of blood money off America’s War on Terror and they would fear one world laws because such a system would put them in the [...]

The End is Nigh!

The End is Nigh!

Will the 99% bring down capitalism? Protests on Wall Street and across America highlight the inequalities of life in a materialistic and financially centred society.  Millionaires are common place, whilst Billionaires abound in this new world of the super rich. Protesters in London only managed to close St Paul’s cathedral, not the Bank of England [...]

A European Conundrum

A European Conundrum

I have been looking at the economic problems from a slightly different angle. Everyone blames the southern countries for all the malaise that exists, as they depend on tourism for a large proportion of their GDP, plus agriculture, and do not pay high enough taxes to cover expenditure. Where as the northern countries work hard [...]

Slippery Grease Or Slippery Greece

Slippery Grease Or Slippery Greece

The experts are out in force today solving the Euro’s problem.  It’s easy, just bankrupt all the Banks in Europe!  But all the Banks in this mess are tied into sovereign debt to such a huge degree, that to save a relatively small economy like Greece the Politicians are prepared to kill off the financial [...]

Kill The Mit

Kill The Mit

I was watching Charlie Rose a couple of days ago, a round table of journalist dissecting Mit Romney and his political views. What exactly was he in favour of, what was he opposed to, does  he have any firm beliefs or is he like a reed that bends with the prevailing wind? Do the Tea [...]

Who Can Fix Congress? We All Can!

Who Can Fix Congress? We All Can!

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

Status

Status

Perhaps an Effective Determinant of Success in American Society? Introduction: A multifarious, multicultural melting pot comprising miscellaneous people defined by status categories: income, occupation, education, family position, gender race, and class, constitutes the identity of American culture. This diverse population characterized by profound culture assimilates the U.S., embraces its traditions, and eventually amalgamates as a [...]
