Humanity's Space Exploration is Vital to Prevent Our Extinction

This is a post I had written elsewhere some time ago, but I wanted to share again since this is quite important to ponder upon and the old post no longer exists. 



Recent news reports have informed us that the future of NASA is in jeopardy and also that the lead of The United States in the Space Race is now in question. President Obama has scrapped the plans to revisit the moon by 2020 and numerous other space exploration programs. The future of NASA is in peril and therefore the economic stability surrounding Cape Canaveral is placed at an even higher risk than it was before this announcement, and that region's economic stability was already in trouble. A significant amount of jobs will be lost. Furthermore, the economy of the area that relied on that economic stimulation is now facing times even more uncertain and precarious. These announcements will now present Cape Canaveral and the surrounding areas, such as Cocoa Beach, the opportunity to create a microcosmic representation of how the failing economy creates a snowballing effect leading to further economic recession-like symptoms, costing even more jobs, failed businesses, and then more people forced to rely on programs in place designed to assist those facing economic desperation, bankruptcy, foreclosure, and financial deficiency. So, rather than the government saving necessary resources and placing them where they can be better used, a significant percentage will be forced into programs providing funds to those who are no longer afforded the opportunity to earn it on the job. 

These are the obvious ramifications of the decision to hobble NASA. So instead of spending a lot of depressing time discussing points and information already widely written about and read, this article will approach hypotheses and considerations less obvious. Not only will these theories be further from the beaten trail of common debate and discussion, but may provide greater weight to the reasons we pursued space exploration in the first place. Beyond that, the goal is to provide information and theories that just might prove more intriguing than depressing. 

Humanity has been looking to the stars since the dawn of civilization. The desire for space exploration is about far more than political popularity contests or national competition; space exploration and the need for reaching beyond our world is almost literally in our genes. In fact, it may literally be within our human nature to pursue this. So, if the need and continual desire to pursue space exploration is indeed within our nature, then we can assume that it is a natural fact and a natural aspect of us. Many philosophical tenets proclaim that everything that exists in the natural world is indeed natural. This is not a sentence that should be taken lightly; while we may all generally agree that birds migrating south or salmon fighting their upstream to spawn are natural acts, fewer agree that the acts of humanity, all the acts of humanity, are natural, too.
This is a chunky, bitter pill because it is seems foggy to assume that humanity's actions are all natural, particularly when humanity does so much that appears to go against the natural grain. We pollute, destroy, waste, fight, change and mutate what was 'purely natural' and create urban settings replete with artificial things. We say our foods may not be natural, our water bottles are destroying vast stretches of ecosystems, and our actions just might be killing the very planet we live on. But there are sound theories supporting the way that humanity is in fact entirely natural and the way nature intended. 

All that exists within nature is natural. This theory can be difficult to support at face value, but there is actually a lot of evidence to support the theory that nothing is unnatural if it really exists, and nothing is actually artificial when seen from a broader perspective. 

We mostly agree with the scientific theories that this planet is approximately 4.5 billion years old, that there have been numerous 'eras' where various forms of life have existed on this planet over many, many millions of years, that a series of catastrophic disasters, not the least of which was the tremendous asteroid that hit somewhere around the Yucatan Peninsula, came very close to annihilating all life on this planet. Further, many agree that life evolves to adapt to the changing dynamics of this world in order to facilitate a greater chance of survival. 

These theories do not exclude humanity; they may have verily found long term solutions within humanity. Humanity is the first and only living species on this planet that demonstrates a profound capability in looking at and gaining understanding of the natural environment around it. Humanity has learned over time an enormous amount of scientific data and from that data created intricate hypotheses supporting yet more study and investigation of the natural world, both far away and also microscopic. Other species adapt to their environments; humanity adapts the environment to itself. 

These theories could go on for volumes, but for our purposes here, we have reasons to assume that Nature recognized that life on this planet is always in potential danger when secured to only the one location. Therefore, evolution may have succeeded in securing a greater chance of survival for the life that has come to be and survived for this long on this planet. Nature has placed a lot of time and resource into creating life on this planet, so why take the chance that it could be eliminated in a single blow? 

So, how does Nature create a natural dynamic that may allow for life on this planet to survive beyond the mortality of the planet itself? By developing an inquisitive mind within at least one existing species and encouraging that mind to explore and seek greater opportunities. We know that birds migrate for their reasons and that some animals migrate for reasons due to reproducing or seeking more abundant resources. Some animals must migrate or else they will inundate their immediate environment and place their kind and others in jeopardy. It could be possible that humanity has evolved in such a way that allows for natural resources to be manipulated in ways that create technology. After all, the only way for humanity to achieve Space Migration would be to create technologies that allow it. The evidence to support humanity's technological achievements aren't difficult to find; what tends to be more elusive is the 'nature' of humanity's abilities and achievements and whether these are as natural as the seasons or somehow beyond the forces that created all that exists within an entire universe. 

Space exploration is not just a scientific pursuit, but potentially a natural means to assure the survival of life from this planet beyond the mortality of the planet. Nature has a lot riding on the potential of life, so perhaps Nature evolved humanity to become technologically capable of achieving space migration. This means that life on this planet does not have to be secured to but one ecosystem (the planet) but could help propagate life from this planet and help it migrate to livable environments beyond this planet. Some could postulate that our moon is basically devoid of life because there would be no compromise of what's there to take life from earth and transport it to the moon. That isn't particularly important (yet technologically incredible), but recognizing that this planet's lifespan is limited certainly is. 

Science theorizes that the planet has been here for about 4.5 billion years, but may not have that much of a lifespan left. There are theories that Nature may eventually render this planet uninhabitable and incapable of supporting life. Hey, it was incapable of supporting life for a long, long time before it was hospitable for life. Science seriously studies Mars because there are theories that life may have existed there once but natural dynamics eliminated the possibilities for the planet to continue with supporting life. If that is the case, Nature may have again recognized that life being stuck on one planet without the possibility for escape dooms that life eventually. With this theory, it only makes sense that evolution would evolve a means of creating technology in order to see this through. This would mean that technology is a natural aspect of life on Earth and that humanity's pursuits of technology are as natural as the chirps of the crickets. 

Humanity's recognition of this planet's mortality is just as important as being able to leave it. We tend to focus on cataclysmic and apocalyptic possibilities. The latest version of this Y2K bug is the possible end of the world sometime in December of 2012. Sure, it may be that the planet will suffer incredible trauma for whatever reason that could threaten mass extinction on this world. Whether it happens or not, it will be far from the first time humanity has assumed that the end is near. This fear of being trapped on a proverbial ticking time bomb may be part of the impetus to drive humanity forward in the pursuit of space exploration and eventually space and potentially interplanetary travel. Some may see this as science fiction gone awry, but science fiction was launched in many ways by humanity's continual pursuit of pioneering new frontiers. Humanity's continual pursuit for new frontiers has often been forced by the need to grow, expand, and facilitate a greater possibility for survival. 

Another thing to theorize is that it wouldn't just be humanity that would migrate from the planet. Humanity would require resources from the planet in order to survive where there are no resources we've evolved to accept. This means that an enormous amount of nonhuman life would have to go, too. Furthermore, since humanity has developed a sense of caring and compassion for other species (no other species has done this to the extent humanity has), then that compassion may be a naturally occurring means of nature ensuring the possibility that a maximum amount of life may survive beyond the planet's lifespan. 

Some may argue that humanity's violent tendencies, predatory and destructive behaviors, and easy denial of the value of other life distracts from the Space Migration theory. No it does not and this is why: It would theoretically be necessary for a chosen species from this planet be of an aggressive and predatory nature. No prey animal has demonstrated an intrinsic need to do more than seek greener pastures, a broader availability for food, and the need for secure cover and concealment. Only predators have shown a greater need for tactical intelligence and courage to pursue their survival. Only genuine aggressive ambition would have the momentum needed to pursue adventures beyond what offers sustenance and comfort. Some possible proof to this? Humanity has been pursuing migration and pioneering into unfamiliar and hostile territory for a long time, first developing the means to do so through the technological prowess of the ships sailing the seas. It is important to note that these ships had to carry all the resources required to sustain those aboard the ships, and they had to do so efficiently, allowing for the resources as well as the space for the crew in a limited area that had to exercise space conservation and smart ergonomics as well as logistical thought to cope with unforeseen dangers. This was and always has been a serious and monumental undertaking. 

The fact that humanity consumes so much of what it encounters supports humanity's continual need for more, which could eventually motivate to continue migrating farther, and since we know the planet is a globe, we're getting to the point where we can only go up, or out. But we are not blind consumers that inundate everything and we all know that much about ourselves. Conservation is a real thing, going greener and finding cleaner sources of energy is a real part of our lives, and caring for the flora and fauna of our world means more to humanity now than ever before. These things demonstrate that humanity would not just be a parasitic monster invading other inhabitable places, but a thinking being pursuing more resources that exist to be resources. While some may argue that we have caused so much destruction and even extinction, we must also recognize that evolution is a system of trials and errors and of checks and balances. We are not ready for space migration yet, demonstrating that we're not because we haven't achieved it yet. 

The ability to leave this planet and thrive elsewhere will require a lot of time, greater technology, and humanity's greater development of sentient and civilized thought. 

To accomplish these things, all of our inventions and cultural entities must evolve, particularly our methods of economy. While so much of human technology, innovation and creative thought have done so much for humanity's continual progress and approach to the potential for more space exploration and eventually space travel, there is one human invention that is presently holding us down, holding us back, and holding us closer to our prehistoric demeanors and vestigial methods. That invention is our economy.
Our economy and monetary system went from trading basic goods for goods, such as pelt for meat or grain for wool, for example, and then evolved into a method that allows a standardized value system that allows money to obtain humanity so much. This sense of evolutionary development has allowed us to pursue so much that meat and hide would not. We've achieved the obtaining of tremendous resources and then technology. Money lets one obtain so much and it is a vastly renewable resource. The same dollar can pass through innumerable hands and buy all of those hands a dollar's worth of stuff, allowing for an economy that benefits a vast amount with very little. 

But now that we've become so reliant on old and outdated ways with the way the economy functions, it is now falling behind and preventing humanity from evolving forward. The fact that the richest nation on the planet is more than 12 trillion dollars in debt lends to the proof that money needs to get with the times. The fact that we limit education, innovation, exploration, science, commerce, and just about every single aspect of human growth and development only because of outdated rules of a system we created to do the very opposite of just that demonstrates that our economy and monetary system of today needs an overhaul.
Now, we are experiencing our outdated and Neolithic methods of economy actually preventing civilization from pursuing the very historical and naturally unique methods of ensuring that life on this planet has a chance to survive beyond it, thwarted and threatened by the human creation that made it seem so possible. 

Education is mired with budget cuts and bureaucracy, innovation and prosperity are limited by economic dynamics beyond the control of any governing or authoritative entity, and the future of every man, woman and child to exist for the next several generations is being mortgaged for snap-judgments of today. There is no other way of putting this or seeing this: the methods governing our monetary systems and economy are broken, failing, and only continuing to degrade. The economy doesn't require a boost or a stimulus because those things are always temporary and subject to too much risk. They're like trying to put out the fire by shutting down the alarms. What's needed within the economy of this planet is a paradigm shift. If that does not happen and happen soon, our societies, our people, and our planet will continue to be at risk. 

The only comfort is that Nature is still occurring and that the way things are now are only part of an ongoing process that will continue to function well into the future (and likely beyond 2012). But part of the unique aspect of humanity and what separates humanity from the remainder of the animal kingdom is humanity's ability to recognize the threats and the opportunities, the limitations and the possibilities, and beyond the now. So we have yet to see how these evolutionary gifts that Nature has bestowed upon humanity overcomes what has become humanity's greatest challenge- the subjugation of humanity to a human creation. 

As long as we view space exploration to be a trite and expensive science project afforded only through affluence and intellectual appeasement, we will continue to demonstrate that we're closer to the Neolithic man of prehistory rather than closer to the humanity that could achieve genuine sentience and civilization. Some may laugh when they see a monkey reach through the bars of its cage and grab a piece of fruit that prevents the monkey's fist from being brought back into the cage. They would laugh because they recognize the futility and lack of judgment on the part of the stubborn monkey. So, they should recognize that humanity's fistful of fruit is its present method of economy and that the only thing in the cage is that economy.

Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD's)- For Idiots, Morons, and the Generally Ignorant

If there is one thing we can all agree on when it comes to political debate and the passions displayed regarding these subjects, it is that these issues are almost never boring. In fact, there is often so much drama and intrigue within the political process that one must wonder if we’re observing some sort of TV series. That thought alone, which is something that occurred to me some time ago (over a period of time, so I don’t have a specific timeline) has prompted me to assume that there’s more to our political process and continual struggle within the two-party system than meets the eye.
In fact, the more I observe the numerous dynamics of the American political machine of today, the more I am convinced that we’re seeing a contrived drama. To go further, I must ask that you brace yourself, because this next sentence is going to sting: If you’re holding firm to one party or another, or maintaining a staunch position on either a Conservative or Liberal, or in some cases, even a Moderate viewpoint concerning the political climate of today, you are a chump.
Yes, you are a sucker. You have fallen prey to what is the most prolific political sham ever perpetrated within The United States of America and likely the world. In fact, the modern technology of today as well as our means of culture and entertainment within that culture is the prompt for the ruse perpetrated by the genuine agenda. Simply put, virtually everything we see done by government is a subterfuge created to dodge the genuine actions of a troupe seeking global, and human, domination.
The entire Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) debacle was part of the proof in these eyes. There were considerable amounts of talk for so long about the existence of WMDs in Hussein’s arsenal, which was the supposed reason for war against Iraq.  This entire farce was more proof of the point and this is why. Shortly after 9/11, Iraq is seen as a potential threat for various reasons, much of which is because of his history as a ruthless dictator (which was a genuine situation, if you check your history). Suddenly, out of some thin air, there is a complaint and concern of WMDs in Iraq. Iraq is threatened with war if they don’t release information about their WMDs, and they somehow claim they have none. It’s believed by the US they’re stored here, here, and over there in that place, and we’re going to show up in just a couple of months to see if they’re in those places, and if they are…
Well, by the time inspectors got there months later…no WMDs! There’s something fishy going on here, we’re here to tell you. So, the Bush Administration and so on continues on for a tiny bit, going back and forth how this is so huge, and then we’re in Iraq, hunting down their regime.
But the thing that confuses this individual is what the hell is a WMD? Nobody knows what it looks like, smells like, whether it has curtains or drapes, and whether it comes in checkerboard patterns and has a soft drink dispenser. One is prompted to wonder if there is a button on it to project a 3D image of Carmen Electra in a bikini on the moon. But here is what we do know. A WMD is not a nuclear device. We know this because the nuclear concerns surrounding Iran and North Korea are referred to as such, not WMDs. It is not a sort of chemical weapons dispenser or delivery system, because everyone knows that Saddam Hussein annihilated hundreds of thousands of his own people with chemical weapons for not toeing his line, and everyone found this perfectly acceptable, by the way, and certainly nobody’s business but Iraq’s and the hundreds of thousands of dead people. We know it isn’t some kinky sex toy, because Hussein’s sons were allowed and encouraged to kidnap, rape, mutilate, and then dump the bodies of any Iraq female of their choosing, and nobody saw this as an issue, either. We know a WMD is not a power grid neutralizer, because Hussein continually shut down the power of numerous towns and cities across Iraq for days and sometimes weeks at a time, until these people openly admitted to the ground under whose feet they worshipped that such was holy ground when those feet were there. A WMD is not a movie projector, so it is unlikely we’ll see lunar images of Electra, because it was widely known Hussein would record most incidences of extreme torture and murder of his own people and show these recordings to his young sons, perhaps while enjoying some Redenbacher and Good & Plenty candies washed down with a sarsaparilla.
There is a bizarre assumption that the effort on the part of some groups who are seeking global domination see the lawlessness of dictators in areas of high influence as much of a threat as the freedom, democracy, and free market system of the United States of America, which is why all of that must be destroyed, or at least transformed. So they drummed up a story like the WMDs, knowing full well that people would buy into it without question, and they were correct. To this day, nobody knows if a WMD can be used to make Snickers bars with cashews and pistachios, but they either believe Hussein had them, or they don’t, and whoever doesn’t believe what they believe must be stupid as rocks. Why? Because the powers that be also knew they could sell the notion that a Conservative president must be a dumb hick and therefore, all of this is his personal agenda (because, as we all know, our Constitutional systems simply allow such things, much like giant weather modification machines on the moon, perhaps named WMD, that create hurricanes and steers them against the shores of the cities of the dumb hick’s choice) and, well, there you have it. Case closed. Because, my countrymen, the statements and claims made by the political wing of your choice are always correct and accurate, and you can sleep at night knowing your team is working for you.
But that is not the case. The case is as placed a few paragraphs above, which is all of this dramatic BS is a system, a single system, creating a subterfuge indicating there are two sides, a good and bad, at constant battle for the good of the people. But hey, why not do such a thing? If the world at large is still willing to seriously consider the issue of WMDs when literally nobody knows what such things are, even vaguely, then these masses are so dumb that they need the likes of the perpetrators of their New World Order to keep them from stabbing themselves in the face with forks when they eat.
Does that sound like conspiratorial drama, complete with aluminum hats and panicked avoidance of fluoridated toothpaste? At first glance, it sure does, so let’s take a close look at why this external appearance is false and the notion of assuming what’s beneath the veneer is not evil is wrong. Further, we’re going to approach why the false entity in government perpetrates the popular view that assuming their actions are anything other than angelic and heroic is to be seen as paranoid kookiness aggravated by overblown drama and bong resin. This is not true and, in fact, the conspiracy theorists just might prove to have the most accurate perspectives of all.
Not that it would matter by much. We are beyond the precipice of stopping the intentions of these dominators and this planet is on the verge of immense losses of human life and, potentially, significant destruction of the planet as a whole. Now, before we all panic over this, we must take a deep breath and recognize that global destruction of human life and severe decimation of the planet itself is actually a sort of cleansing, like a forest fire, and considered necessary by the global dominators to achieve a better world. So, yes, this planet will soon see suffering, blood, murder, mayhem and anarchy unlike we have ever witnessed or heard of before, but the hopeful result is that we will come out the other side a better species, as prophesied. So, let’s stroll down the lane of clear observation and take a look at what is really going on, and then explore the likely and logical results.
First of all, the entire concoction of severe rivalry between so-called Democrats and Republicans is all smoke and mirrors. The global dominators such as the Bildebergers, CFR, and others have created a drama of sorts in order to appease the public eye while they conduct global affairs without the continual interruptions and interferences on the part of the masses. The drama changes in appearance in the general perceptions of other cultures and countries, but here in the United States, the drastic polarization in our two-party process serves as the perfect backdrop for the theatrical ruse propagated as real government. This is in fact working very well since the vast majority of the American population has the virtual fish hook buried in deep. Now, at first glance, this accusation may seem contrived and utterly insane, so we’re going to explore the reasons for this perception, highlighting why recognizing the projected sham as the false one is appropriate and giving any credence to it is the insane act.
First, we have to recognize that we’ve all been programmed to think within certain boxes. Therefore, the simple act of thinking, and perceiving, beyond these parameters allows us a clearer picture and the understanding of what’s taking place. To start, the notion that this country, which is one of the most intriguing and amazing countries history has ever witnessed, is being governed by two governmental bodies that are bloodied enemies embroiled in fierce battles against one another for the sake of the country as a whole is an utter fallacy, yet the very projected ruse we’re expected to accept. Now, why would we do something like that?
Looking back to recent decades, we saw a slowly developed distrust of government and its secretive actions, and a marked dislike in the malevolent corruption. Then, for a considerable amount of time, we saw a severe apathy on the part of the people when it came to political observation. It became the common norm to accept that politicians overseeing all law and government were simply corrupt liars out for their own greedy benefit and nothing more. We knew with confidence that all campaign promises and claims were bawdy but necessary lies spewed in order to gain office, from where the next corrupt politician could further the destruction of society and its various communities with impunity. This was not only commonly accepted, but even seen as a wry joke. We find it perfectly okay to see rock stars as drug addled child molesters and politicians as nefarious, megalomaniacal, monstrosities bent on world domination. Sketch comedy finds this as nothing more than fun fodder.
Well, once these politicians became exactly what the world viewed them to be, they no longer wanted to be viewed in such a light, so they perpetrated a sham to project a different perspective. Look back to the 1980’s when there was the start of this new perspective, first pinpointed at the young people of the day. It was too common for actors, musicians and others to spread the notion that everyone needs to get politically involved and not remain apathetic in their views of government. There were major agendas perpetrated on MTV and other venues aimed at the young voters. The idea was that everyone needs to be involved, not just the wealthier fuddy-duddies who think they know best. From there, the political arena quickly evolved into an attractive and sexy drama, constantly filled with intrigue and spectacle. Once upon a time, Wikileaks would have seemed like a plot for a Van Damme movie, but here it is, supposedly real and just getting juicier.
This is where one must ask the question, does this much drama and intrigue genuinely exist in real life? The political arena of today is filled with so much drama and conflict that TV shows are stressed in order to keep up with their high-end drama. Shows like Alias and 24constantly have to pick the brains of innumerable writers to maintain the high, and yet (supposed) real life at the hands of our elected leaders cannot seem to get their drama under control. Domestic and International relations are so complex and spectacular, according to the powers-that-be, that we need numerous 24-hour news stations and a long string of political analysts and talk show hosts to help us keep up. Then, we’re asked to hang on to our hats and tighten our belts while these political heroes constantly keep on the go to prevent global catastrophe.
Then, if all that wasn’t enough, we have to harbor the notion that there are somehow two different species of humanity living in the United States of America, and they both find the other utterly horrific and on the brink of being the apogee of evil. The Democrats and Liberals, who are the sophisticates who recognize that we must bring the world together and that we’re not led by ghosts, view the gun-toting, bible-thumping Conservative hicks and hayseeds as the sure-fire harbingers of global destruction. Then, the Republicans and Conservatives, who are the ambitious and freedom-loving high-thinkers who recognize there is genuine danger in the world that cannot be ignored, and who recognize the Maker as the ultimate authority and that the United States Constitution is a divinely-inspired document ensuring the survival and betterment of humanity, view the atheistic, baby-killing and morally bankrupt Democrats (or, socialists and progressives out to destroy all mankind) and Liberals as the sure-fire harbingers of global destruction.
What a big pile of complete and utter bullshit.
If there was any truth behind the rivalry and antagonism between these two partisan opponents, there would not be mere continual verbal ranting in front of the camera and microphone. If there was an organized entity out there that was systematically seeking the decimation of this country and its way of life, the actual government in power would act accordingly, ensuring this entity was neutralized and brought to justice. But instead, we see two forces, both supposedly good fighting a grave evil, accusing each other of the exact same crimes perpetrated in the exact same manner, achieving the exact same result. Meanwhile, while these two supposed opponents (which is really one entity working in unison to achieve the systematic destruction of the United States of America, which is one of the last obstacles to global domination) fight for the people and their freedom, we’re forced to sit on our hands and watch the planet’s finest country fall apart and wash away a piece at a time.
There is no two-party system and if there ever was, it hasn’t existed since the days of black-and-white TV. The planet’s socialist agenda (the genuine and real agenda of political power of today) has been firmly in place for quite some time. But such governments cannot come in under the light of day and tell the planet’s population that it is to be the property of a select handful of elitists; there would be blood in the streets and a total loss of societal control, much like we’ve seen where Communist rule first attempted control, such as China and the USSR. Since then, while governments and political leaders have since convinced themselves that socialist and communist rule is the only effective means of government and control of the masses, they have learned they must wield their iron fists within a velvet glove. Plunge an axe into the skulls of the constituency, but smile and tell them it’s a flu shot.
What with the people of today loving TV entertainment and a continual rise in drama, the world’s governmental entity created a television show called the American Political System. Now, we’re expected to see this contrived theatrical show as real life, when it is about as real as margarine. We’re told by so many media outlets that what’s occurring in the political process projected to us in our media is the real deal, and we’re given a choice of which side to be on, like so much college football fans. You have to decide which side is good and which is evil and then wear that team’s colors and recite their slogans.
And you have to accept that your team is being overrun by the other team and that your world is about to come crashing down. But hey, you can enjoy the sweet taste of blame as you slather it all over the other guy, because it is all his team’s fault.
Dear readers, I implore you to consider the situation before all of us and recognize it for the sham that it is. The perpetrated accusations that your neighbors are such epiphanies of pure evil so malevolent that Satan shudders when seeing them is an elaborate but fabricated lie. The oppositions between supposed Left and Right do not exist in reality. This situation is a ruse perpetrated by a ruling class not wanting to be seen or recognized while it completes its task of global domination.
There is a definite and tangible example that the claims made above are true, and this example is something each of us must accept and work for every day. This is the systems of money and economy. The governmental entities in place across the planet (which are, in fact, a part of one global governing body) all proclaim that humanity is a slave and indentured servant to the system of economy. That is not an exaggerated statement. In the world today, we see numerous countries and societies suffering and witnessing immense suffering due to economic strife and monetary shortages. The US sees massive unemployment, foreclosures, and massive losses due to the supposed recession. People are dying and suffering everywhere. People cannot find employment because there is so little to be had, mainly because of the economy. The nearly entire population of today’s children cannot be properly educated because there isn’t enough money in the budgets to educate them. There is simply not enough money in the world to create jobs and opportunities and to allow humanity to progress and flourish. Because of the economy, entire societies and countries such as Greece and Ireland, not to mention so many African nations, suffer in squalor caused by bankruptcies and the decimations of funds. People the world over endure severe poverty because there simply isn’t enough to go around.
This is the single greatest lie and scam ever perpetrated in the history of all that exists in the universe.
The powers in control (swimming in money and luxury) want you to think that the economy and various monetary processes are beyond human control, like some sort of Godzilla broken loose and running amok. But the truth is simply that the economy and the monetary processes are standardized systems that are always running with clockwork precision, and don’t ever think they’re anything but that. Money and economy are not just standardized systems of production, distribution and consumption around the globe, they are also the perfect yokes to place on the necks of the world’s masses in order to make them do what the governing bodies want them to do.
The economy does not ever run out of control on its own power. To assume that humanity (which created and controls this system) must appease some divine entity that exists within the mundane world through the manifestation of money and economy is so ridiculous that, when the sham is recognized, it is akin to thinking Martians are poised to attack at any moment, and that December 21st, 2012 is a day that will truly live in infamy.
The standardized system of traffic laws for air and road, for the most part, operate quite nicely. There are often accidents and tragedies, but these are usually the result of human error and a momentary deviation from the standards. If everyone drove the way they’re supposed to and actually knew what they were doing (most people do not know how to drive a motor vehicle on the roadway), then the system would operate better than it does. But even with most people being ignorant of how to drive (they know what the pedals and steering wheel do, but they are blissfully ignorant of the process at large), we can achieve distances never achievable in the past. One can drive across the country in a day or two, and fly to the other side of the planet within hours.
If our system of transportation is so wondrously efficient even with all of its flaws, then why is our system of economy something we must feed entire peoples? It isn’t. They just want us to think it is. The notion that all of today’s children now owe tens of thousands of dollars to the government because the government overspent the people’s money is so stupid to even entertain with but a moment of thought, yet we’re told by the authorities that this is exactly how it is. The notion that we must all endure extreme hardship because the country is in debt to the amount of somewhere around fourteen trillion dollars is so completely stupid that we must wonder how bad it will be for the common people when that debt reaches eighty quintillion dollars.
To whom do we owe fourteen trillion dollars? China? Really? Then why is China’s debt also amounting into the trillions? Who do they owe all that money, the Martians?
The economy is widely defined as a system of production, distribution and consumption of goods and services fueled by the standardized systems of money, but in truth, it is a system of influence and control wielded by the powerful over those who are not in power, and it is just that simple. The economy is not something that spins out of control and therefore we must suffer uncontrollably until the authorities somehow magically bring it back into control; this makes as much sense and incorporates the same amount of intelligence as assuming we must toss a specific amount of virgins into the mouth of a volcano in order to appease the corn gods. The rulers of the Mayans who held down innocent victims and hacked out their hearts to a screaming mass of rank and file are eerily parallel to a modern government who tells us how bad it has to be and get because of the uncontrollable recession, and how evil their political counterparts are for aggravating and even perpetrating the condition.
The fact that economy is used as the ultimate weapon against the world’s population is so pristinely logical, much in part due to the fact that the governing bodies are really just engaged in a manner of business, gone awry.
Think of the operating manner of any particular business, of just about any size. Almost invariably, particularly in larger businesses, there is a small handful of people who wield the most authority and control, and reap the heaviest amounts of the harvest. The vast, vast majority of the profits go directly to them. Then, just below them exists a significantly larger population that does their superior’s bidding, and in doing so, they obtain a portion of the profits much leaner than their superiors, but much heftier than their subordinates. Then, below them, there is a mass of lower-level authorities who oversee the rank and file turning the cranks of the business, sweating the most and working the hardest, but reaping the least amount of the profits, so they can get whatever they can and hope to move up some sunny day.
This sounds nefarious with the way it is put in the paragraph above, but it is realistic. Plus, it isn’t all that bad, really, since it’s the way things often work. The people at the bottom, if they’re smart and ambitious, could eventually move through the ranks all the way to the top. When the playing field is level, this is basically how it could go. Sure, not everyone starts at the bottom, and not everyone succeeds no matter how much they try. It isn’t really fair, but there is no other realistic alternative. In fact, it would work out just fine if the economic process wasn’t so corrupted. The problem with this philosophy and why it often does not work and is therefore viewed as unrealistic is that the playing field is intentionally placed unlevel and the corrupted economic system cannot allow it.
So, this is how our governments function, and now with this global government coming into place, it is how they view the planet. The big shots at the top have all the power and wealth, and they sip it down to their national leaders, who trickle it down to regional leaders, who will do what they can, regardless of how morally bankrupt, to move up while the masses of the world are viewed as nothing more than entry-level labor. Then, what with today adding up to literally billions of extraneous labor that is nothing but a liability, severe actions are being put into place by those in authority in order to cope with the problems. These actions will lead to the suffering and eventual deaths of millions upon millions of people before these so-called leaders are satisfied.
The preceding paragraph hints to why all of this is going on. The world of today is almost a completely different planet in innumerable ways compared to what it was just a couple generations ago. When your humble author was born, in the sixties, this planet’s human population was about half of what it is presently. Yes, the human population has doubled in a drastically short amount of time and it continues to grow, despite the depletion of natural resources. Also, the technology of just forty-plus years ago and farther back was archaic compared to what’s here today. The point is that those harboring plans of their New World Order and global domination have no seams in their communication. They can join and firm their bonds, and convictions, to their hearts’ content, and they can view the population as a severe liability.
And, as far as anyone can tell, there does seem to be a real purpose other than just an insatiable thirst for power. The CFR and Trilateral Commission have made it clear that the world of today cannot afford incidences akin to what occurred during WWII. High-tech weaponry and so many more people add up to severe global chaos, which could spin out of control so badly that humanity as a whole could be at risk. But yet, we certainly can’t allow the population to proliferate uncontrolled, for more than one reason. Sure, overpopulation strains availability of resources, but the dynamics of human behavior demonstrate people don’t get along well when cramped into tight quarters. The world of today is strewn with examples of this, and it is a fairly new paradigm. Humanity and this planet didn’t endure any of these challenges to anywhere near these degrees a mere century ago. There is genuinely, truly, a very real problem in our world today that has to be addressed.
So, who is going to address it? Why, our political leaders and those seeking global control, of course. These are supposedly elected leaders and people of high stature. These are mostly the ultra-wealthy and those prominent in government, business, and finance. These people come together in their meetings and discuss what they must do to prevent future chaos. Sure, people see these meetings and summits as conspiracy at their highest levels, and they should and here is why.
These people have reached pinnacles of success in their chosen fields, but it is still impossible to claim they have genuine knowledge and understanding of what to do effectively, so they’re likely to be reactionary and hasty. Look, certain people fall into certain roles based on their sort of personality category. Some people become teachers, wrestlers, rock stars, politicians, actors, comedians, snipers, or whatever it is they are, based on their innate personalities and environmental effects. We need to recognize that the personality traits who pursue political and governmental power are not the sorts who have the best interests of the people in mind. Those sorts of people pursue other fields, such as medicine, perhaps, and other arenas of human interest, such as charity and so forth. But the personality trait seeking political office and governmental power seeks power and influence for their own purposes, not selflessly and for the people, regardless of their political wing.
We see this trait demonstrated resplendently through all manners of authoritive power, even down to simple local cops. Place a person into the authoritive position of assistant manager at a fast food restaurant, and they believe they have the authority to strip search an employee. What feeds this monster is that we all view positions of authority as such without regards to the breadth of that authority. So, if the fast food manager is our manager, we just might strip down and bend over no matter how degrading or how many tears are spilt. If we buy a plane ticket, we mutely accept being felt up and electronically strip searched. The examples of how we submit to authority, real or perceived, without regard to the genuine scope of said authority, could go for pages.
So, the world is slowly being overrun with mindsets bent on seeking more and more power, much for the sheer sake of it, but then mismanaged with limited imaginations and degrees of intelligence. After all, people with higher degrees of intelligence and levels of effective imagination steer clear of government and politics rather than seek it. This is a fundamental mistake within the basic realm of human society and civilization and it always has been.
This leads to yet another fundamental philosophical dilemma that must be considered. We need to start with the premise that all things that exist do so within the laws and limitations of nature. There is nothing that is unnatural or supernatural; if it is considered so, yet exists, the perception is based on misunderstanding and ignorance. If there is a Bigfoot, he is a natural thing. If there are civilizations on other planets, this is a consequence of nature. If there really are ghosts, they are not supernatural, but natural. The steel and glass skyscraper is no less natural than the beaver dam or beehive. The flashlight in your hand would be no less natural than the glowing backside of a firefly. There is nothing in existence that exists outside the realm or laws of nature, no matter how much humanity’s ignorance and arrogance believes otherwise. Humanity is as susceptible to the laws of nature as the beehive, the flocks of seagulls and the clouds in the sky. There is nothing humanity does or is that has not been dictated by the laws of nature, no matter how much humanity likes to believe it is above and beyond such things.
So, running with this philosophical premise in mind, why are things the way they are? Now, all we can do is assume, but we have a lengthy span of history to study and a lot offered by science. It is odd that we hear little of what nature has to do with humanity, particularly since we seem to know so much about the rest of our world, all the way down to the mating rituals of bugs and whatnot. But we can take a look at what we do know and try to make some educated guesses.
There isn’t a major point in trying to run on with how modern man got this far from the days of the Stone Age, but we do know history has us painted as being rather violent and aggressive. Then, we also know that there’s been a significant aspect of humanity that has grown past this. While we know there is so much aggression and violence around us, we also know there is a lot of peace and civilized behavior. In fact, the aspect of humanity as a civilized and thinking being capable of fascinating technology is part of why we often think of ourselves as being past or beyond the common laws of nature. But this just doesn’t stand up to scrutiny and therefore doesn’t make sense.
Human technology, civilization, language, and other traits of humanity that seem to separate us from ‘the animals’ still have to be a natural consequence. Humanity achieving space exploration simply must be as natural as geese flying south for the winter. There will always be those who will argue otherwise, but these arguments are difficult to support without mere agreement. So, with the notion that all that is, is truly natural and that there is no separation from what is natural, then why is humanity like it is?
This article could go on for pages, offering numerous explanations and examples. So, just by staying with the article’s subject matter of human activity as it pertains to politics and the difficulties within, and the common aspects of human strife and war, we’re forced to try to come up with natural reasons why we do what we do. One theory offers that since humanity is at the top of the food chain, something has to be in play to keep the numbers in check. However, the past couple hundred years has shown a marked increase in humanity abilities and thirst for survival. This is because our abilities in medicine and technology have increased rapidly and have surpassed numbers lost in war, disease, infant mortality, and other factors. However, our drive to procreate has not subsided with the survival rate climbing dramatically.
It does seem that humanity is at an impasse. We desire a truly civilized society on a global scale, yet we cannot find a way past the baseness of human violence and aggression. Some of this is our continual need for war, and this need is so remarkable, much in part because of its scope. This is stated because the supposed highest caliber among us, which is supposed to be our political leadership, has achieved a mass of weaponry likely to be the most insidious in the universe. And yes, political leaders still squabble amongst each other and send their country’s masses in to annihilate one another to appease the tempers. It is odd how we look at our children and see our kind’s future, yet somehow their futures are mortgaged for political ambition of today. And that’s the easy part. Children by the millions around this world are subjugated to forced labor, forced prostitution (producing amazing amounts of profit, which is the sole reason governments do not step in to confront it), and now there are rumors the unwanted children of prostitutes are being raised as opposed to once being quickly disposed of, mainly because their organs are being farmed for profit and the benefit of the wealthy. One common argument of modern humanity is we must kill babies to save human lives.
Okay, there still has to be a natural process that makes some sense to the natural process. This could go on and on, bringing about one graphic example of humanity’s inhumanities after another, but it would be better to assume we’re going somewhere with this, and fast. Humanity has changed for the better in so many ways, but it does seem we’re in an awkward situation with the massive, expanding population. This author believes there could be a natural circumstance caused by the global extinctions of millions of years past. This planet has seen extinctions of massive amounts of species on a global scale, and the last one was caused by severe extraterrestrial forces by way of what was likely a comet or asteroid. This author believes that the evolutionary process that created an immensely complicated and sophisticated world of life during the eras of the dinosaurs failed to take into consideration these universal complications. None of the life then was intelligent enough to cope with issues beyond that species’ survival needs. Because life’s primary function is to survive and propagate, which it does with tremendous success, it must find a way to surpass not only the threats to regional environmental conditions, but global conditions, too. It is supposed that this is why humanity has achieved the degree of awareness and intelligence it has, and this is an amazing hypothesis. The claim here is that humanity is an animal much like all the other animals on this globe, but has achieved a higher position of sentience and civilization in order to create technology that might facilitate the survival of life on this planet beyond this planet.
It is this author’s supposition that this is precisely what we are. However, the process is far from complete. We are in a sort of childlike or adolescent position within our approach to this ultimate goal within nature, and this assumption is made because of our inherently ignorant actions worldwide. We still have nationalistic notions that this region of the planet must produce better humanity than this one, and we have religious and philosophical extremists. Here, we have two glaringly obvious examples that we refuse to cope with, and one is the extreme corruption within a massive religion. The Islamic faith has been overrun with extremists who believe their god wants them to annihilate those who don’t think the way they do. The second example is the entire society of the United States of America being so pathetically polarized on political issues, causing this polarization to decimate the planet’s historically most profound and forward country to date.
It does seem that we have a long way to go in our political process, so therefore, there will be far more war, strife, human subjugation, and animalistic violence. We are on a cusp of animal and civilized being, so today we are not either one completely. This is a fascinating time to be here on this world, though, as the entertainment value of all of this keeps us on the edges of our cushy seats almost throughout the waking day.
Because we’re still a dumb creature that must learn everything the hard way, but a nearly civilized species capable of recording our history and passing on lessons learned from people to people and generation to generation, we’re going to continue attacking one another for a while longer, but eventually this might get so extreme and hard to fathom, that it will no longer be desired. Many, many people believe there is at least one more world war on the way, this author included, but it could become so horrifying in scope that once the smoke clears, the nuclear radiation drops to livable levels, and the billions of bodies are disposed of properly, humanity might adopt the intelligent notion that becoming more civilized and caring just might work out and not seem so vulnerable.

Until then, all we can do is sit back, crack open a beer and watch the whole thing go down in style. While we do so, we can hold on to the hope that humanity is far from being capable of affecting nature but is a mere process of it, and that nature and life are far superior to any one species. If this resonates any significant fraction of truth, life will eventually flourish and humanity will, in a future epoch, become the true custodian of this planet and become this planet’s way of propagating its life beyond this planet. Or, humanity will succumb to extinction just like well over 99% of the planet’s former species and nature will have to try the process again with a creature that isn’t so touchy and bloodthirsty. It did make sense, one could suppose, to try first with a predator, since predators have a greater degree of ambition and imagination, but if a predator proves to be a mere ticking time bomb, then perhaps what crawls from the ashes of our destruction might be of lesser aggression and prove to be a greater success. Let’s just hope humanity isn’t the key to this planet’s ultimate extinction and that nature found this thing called life on this planet is a bad idea and that it has to go, and that humanity is the forged tool set in play to finalize the process.
