The Imaginary Incentive to Serve

Posted on by

The world we live in is governed by the laws of dominance and subservience. There is no way to escape the system until our tenure here is complete.

Most people are unwilling to entertain the idea that most of what we do in aggregations of people is instinctive and that we have inborn propensities that are always present. `

Two of the instincts are to exalt our species and exalt ourselves as we interact with others in in the various aggregations we belong to. Because we are so important and special to ourselves, it is normal to expect that others view us in a similar light.

Donald Trump Explained

Show me where in the constitution it is written that the job of the U.S. president is to guide the U.S. economy.

Tell me how a president acting as CEO of a nation is compatible with free market principles.

Then point to a case in history where Tariffs along with a trade war has done anything but destroy the economy of every country which participates.

Now who benefits from a president taking such actions? Is it you the citizen? How is this all working out for you personally at this time?

Or, is it an elite group that lobbies relentlessly for policies from which they alone profit while all others suffer?

Is it really a good idea for U.S. citizens to grant any president dictatorial powers? How has this worked out historically for other countries which have done the same?

 

AI and AS Combined

I have been asking experts to explain exactly what artificial intelligence is. So far, not a one has given a cohesive answer. That doesn’t mean it is not anything. Never discount this kind of development, even though it may not have any personal utility to you at the moment. Every new invention I can remember, got dismissed by many as something that would never catch on…. automobiles, computers, smartphones and so on. AI, most likely will change the world. Based on initial observations as to how it is being used now, it is a destructive joke of a development.

Is it good for further enslaving the global population?  AI is being used in an attempt to do just that. So far, it has only created a degree of online chaos, that is driving folks offline. It is a great money saver for the online industry but, is that worth the business it is running off? Continue reading →

Ways to Close the Wealth Inequality Gap

]Ways to Close the Wealth Inequality Gap
By James Quillian, Economic, Political Analyst, natural Law

Ronald Reagan set the precedent first by embracing the Full Employment act of 1978 – which changed the economy from free market…. to planned. Since that time, the rich have done the planning. All administrations since have followed Reagan’s lead. It has been nothing but deficit spending and money printing ever since. The rise of the government -made billionaires followed.

Ronald Reagan was the first president to tamper with the financial markets following the crash of 1987.

Ronald Reagan’s programs have been followed by the creation of the huge wealth gap we have today. It was about normal when he took office. Even today, after all of the damage done, Reagan is still held out as the perfect icon of a conservative

In 2006, Mention was made of revitalizing the plunge – protection team, to gauge public reaction. No reaction – so Henry Paulson was appointed treasury secretary. The asset enhancement initiative had been bolstered and stock price manipulation rose to a new level.

The “Wall Street Bailout” of 2008 transferred countless dollars from the bottom of the food chain to the top. In 2020, with the Corona Virus, what amounts to a wartime economy was imposed on the public. This opportunity transferred even more billions of dollars to the top.

QE and other loose money interventions artificially elevated profit margins for corporations.

Americans, highly trained to promote their own poverty, fully support management of the economy. Citizens think presidents have magical power over the economy. Citizens now expect a new government program to fix inflation.
This is what has caused all of the inequalities. Returning to the free market system is the only path to improvement.

The Game of Dominance and Subservience
James Quillian, Economic, Political Analyst, natural Law

Posted on March 23, 2025 by jamesq

Would it not be nice to have a board game called Dominance and Subservience? Perhaps if enough people played the game, it would come to light that life exists in a system of dominance and subservience.

It is the job of each species to dominate and make use of as many other species as possible. Dominate all of the other species and have them serve mankind. They don’t all get a bad deal. Dogs volunteer to be dominated and get a decent deal in return. Dogs end up trading freedom for comfort and are content when able to do so.

Human being are the dominant species living in the world today. Humans not only dominate all other worldly species, they also dominate and make servants of each other. Dominance and subservience are such an important part of life, the process is sometimes hard to notice. Subservience is almost always voluntary as with dogs.

Early in life, humans gain some knowledge of what they are capable of and who and how many people they can influence. Decisions are made to serve in exchange for comfort, mostly when individuals have concluded in their own minds that it is their best option for survival. None of this is spoken.

Some are more successful at the game of Dominance and Subservience than others.  What becomes of the most successful players of the game? These folks become presidents, congressmen and CEOs of huge corporations. The very most successful are private citizens who control enough wealth to dictate policy to government. World leaders are among the very best at dominance and subservience. Power and money are the rewards.

Where is the game of dominance and subservience played? It is played everywhere but the greatest contests go on in and around government. Democracy turns out to be a predator’s playground. Government’s primary activity turns out to be that of those with enough power getting what they want through government and having others pay for it.

Ordinary citizens fall in the trap of believing elected officials are motivated by ideology and are trying to improve the country. Governments have never operated that way.

Who Benefits From Democracy
By James Quillian,Economist, Political Analyst, Natural Law

Democracy serves whoever holds political power. That’s the whole trick .Everything else is decoration.

Here’s how the arrangement plays out in the real world.

Roughly 15% of the population controls about 90% of the wealth. That small bloc uses the machinery of democracy to write laws that enrich themselves and steer government policy to their advantage. The result is predictable: a widening gulf between the ultra‑rich and everyone else.

Political Medicine and Life Expectancy

Do we have classic socialized medicine in the United States?

Do we have national healthcare inspired by European democratic socialism? What we have is political medicine.

With socialism , goods and services are rationed by something other than price. Who gets what or how much in terms of healthcare is determined by political power. Those with little or no political power have get very little to none in terms of healthcare.

How does ObamaCare kill ? It turns doctors into clerks and patients into commodities. Insurance plans are actually life management plans and have no characteristics of genuine insurance. Under Obama Care , preventive healthcare comes down to starting patients with anointed maladies on big pharma life extending prescriptions drugs.
Doctors no longer talk to patients about genuine preventive measures like losing weight. A doctor’s role now , is  to mine for problems to exploit on behalf of the huge financially powerful firms which lobbied for decades to get the bill passed. After those are found,

any other patient issues are explained away, postponed or ignored. Doctors now act as agents of the state…. helping to carry out national healthcare agendas.
From your doctor, do you get his opinion or a political opinion? Truth is not used in politics. So, is not truth used in medicine?

This is why the death rate in the U.S. is increasing. It is going to get a lot worse. When was the last time you can remember a bad law being repealed in the United States?

Tarriffs

Tariffs are taxes on the overall population. The U.S. is broke. Consumer prices are skyrocketing. Individual citizens are the only entities which have any true income, or for that matter any genuine assets. In order to survive, the government must find ways to bleed what is left in resources out of the general population. The only other solution is to start closing Federal Agencies or cutting salaries of Federal employees.

Tariffs can be described as a benefit, and guess what?  A huge portion of the population can be duped into believing that they are. I have this saying. Never trust a politician, billionaire or broadcaster, Tariffs work against you, despite what these types say.

How is this possible in a democracy? As I say, democracy is the wrong system for a people who trust leadership. Americans hang on every word coming out of the mouths of the powerful. It is as simple as that. Add to that a number of misguided myths that purvey the national consciousness, as follows. here are a few.

Intellectuals routinely assume that what works on paper will work in practice, as if foreign vendors will not change their marketing practices in response to  U.S. Tariffs. They will respond with their own protectionist policies with regard to the United States. It will make more sense to them to lower their prices  elsewhere than it will to pay U.S. taxes.

The president has the role of guiding the economy. This is not the case, nor is it the case that the economy must be guided, at all, from the top down.

There is actually no such thing as the U.S. economy. The economy, as it effects you, is a worldwide phenomenon, regardless of how it is presented. People are easily manipulated as they treat it as a my team vs the other team, situation, as if they have anything to gain by a stellar GDP relative to China, for example. There is no go team go in economics. Its every man for himself, independently of the way you would like it to be.

Government does not provide safety.  More people have died due to government’s efforts to keep us all safe programs than not. Our intelligence agencies may very well be the leading cause of death in the country,

Experts do not know what is best. For the most part experts milk society. Without government funding for their efforts, most would go broke.

This is the essence of tariffs in the light of reality. Eventually reality imposes itself on all of us. Why not deal with it in advance?.

With tariffs, just add more economic misery to what you are already experiencing.

Wealth Redistributing in the US
James Quillian, Economist, Political Analyst, Natural Law

Given the current mentality of U.S. citizens, it can’t be done. As long as voters trust their leaders, folks will just have to wallow in their misery. Democracy only benefits a population which does not trust its government. If this was not the case, there would be no point in having a democracy or a republic.

As long as citizens trust their leaders , a few will use government as a means of drawing wealth in their direction. So, with wealth disparities and a population that views government as their friend, there will be more disparities to come.

Any unnatural means of redistributing income like with government programs, will bring billionaires to their knees, but everyone else will become poorer also given the current mentality of U.S. citizens, it can’t be done.

Why Official Anti-Inflation Programs Fail
James Quillian, Economist, Political Analyst, Natural Law

This is because government serves as a place where smart people go to wrench what they want out of others, who believe it is being used for its intended purpose.

No entity that is heavily in debt like government is going to fight inflation. Official anti – inflation efforts are all talk. Without inflation, the U.S. will go the equivalent of bankrupt. Inflation is a way to tax you because lawmakers will never suggest taking more out of your paycheck.

 

Lower interest rates and inflation increases. Raise interest rates and the government can’t service the  enormous debt it has accumulated.

This problem cannot be solved. We get problems like this because U.S. Citizens trust their government. The founding fathers didn’t trust government. They probably never fathomed that their posterity would. Americans are about to find out why they didn’t.

Why Folks Suffer

This is an explanation by  Anil Narain Matai
Why do we suffer in our life? Is it due to our wrong decisions or because it’s written in our fate?

Suffering is not a punishment — it is a portal. It is neither the result of wrong decisions nor merely fate. Suffering is the cosmic trigger that awakens the dormant parts of your soul, compelling you to break illusions and transcend limitations.

If suffering was solely due to wrong decisions, life would merely be a cause-and-effect game. But the cosmos operates on Karmic Alchemy, not mechanical logic. Every suffering you endure is an alchemical fire — burning away false identities, toxic attachments, and unaligned desires. It is not a punishment, but a purification. Continue reading →

The Beginnings of Language. PDF

Spoken and written language are the two most common forms of communication …. although it is often assumed that with respect to communication that is all there is. Formal language is only one form of communication.

Human beings communicate in many different ways and formal language was the last to develop. Other types are ongoing but usually not within a person’s awareness.

Research shows that lower animals broadcast and receive mental images. Human beings do the same thing but have lost so much of that ability, that the impressions are very faint and usually explained away as anxiety or something else. Regardless, as a person walks about , he broadcasts his state of mind to the world and to all he encounters.

What is charisma? Charismatic people broadcast an image that appeals to a lot of different people. Karma may very well cause the reaction by others due to the state of mind being broadcast. Someone who is lonely broadcasts a lonely state of mind and ends up being avoided as a result. Positive thinking gets good results, because that is the state of mind being broadcast.

If nature has provided such an efficient way to communicate, why would spoken and then written language develop? Don’t forget that our existence is a game of dominance and subservience. There are peaceful corners of the world where people live and interact but on average life is completely brutal. Humanity today is more civilized than at any time in history. There was a time many thousand years ago when there was no peace. Everything was taken by force.

When caveman A planned on attacking and robbing caveman B and transmitted that image, caveman A put himself in danger. Caveman B would carry out a preemptive strike. Over time , communicating with mental images waned and verbal language became more sophisticated. In modern times, communicating with mental images is so subtle, all but a few deny that it occurs. But, it does.

As mental transmission decreased, the lie as a tool for survival was born. Without the need to lie for purposes of survival , language would have never developed.
