Title: How “MADE IN THE USA” can thrive again!
The state of the nation has changed dramatically since the founding fathers. A general desire not to be ruled by a monarch or tyrant has morphed into a dissatisfaction with the tyrannical business structure of international big money tech, international big business, and big national corporations. Big money uses the government loopholes and subsidies to enrich themselves further while keeping most of the population relatively poor and struggling from paycheck to paycheck. We have substituted the tyranny of the monarch for the tyranny of big money in the form of monopoly like tech and big business. You can almost say that we have become the slaves of the rich and powerful with no realistic ability to compete with them economically.
We used to produce things which the world wanted and needed and today there are very few things which we produce that the world wants more of or needs. Suddenly free international trade is a disadvantage to the United States.
Is there a traditional conservative capitalist solution to this economic dilemma if the tyrants are big rich capitalists themselves? The answer is clearly no. A perfect example was the organic food movement which promoted small independent family organic farms at its inception. What happened? Many organic farms were bought up by big business food companies and new independent small business organic farmers now have a harder time remaining independent.
USDA certified organic standards which are low to begin with are being lobbied by multinational food companies in an effort to reduce the standards even lower. Even worse much prime agricultural US land is being bought by foreign countries since the federal government and many state governments don’t have rules against foreign ownership.
The only possible solution to the problem is to NOT TAX the independent US organic farmers, independent organic farm distributors, and organic only independent retail establishments such as restaurants. If licensed independent US organic producers, distributors, and sellers CAN’T legally be bought up by big money then maybe there is a chance that capitalism in modified form can work again from the ground up. The result will be a return of wealth back to private, independent, single ownership in the long run. This is a just capitalistic redistribution of wealth with a small adjustment in government laws. It is not a brute force distribution by the government of wealth to many who don’t deserve it or haven’t earned it at taxpayer’s expense.
Perhaps the same solution can be applied to minimally polluting small licensed independent producers of goods made only in the United States with national resources only. Don’t tax them at all and don’t let big money buy them up! If we don’t tax them then it may become a David vs. Goliath economy where the small US business man or woman is not bullied or bought up by big money and they can prosper again for the benefit of the nation as a whole.
Yes, a just capitalistic system is still possible but the government laws and taxes must be changed to accomplish this in favor of the independent US producers only. Obviously if a small independent business sells foreign products then they will not escape taxation. Call this new approach national capitalism if you want.
Big business does not need to be taxed at higher levels but definitely eliminate all the legal loopholes and subsidies which make them pay almost no taxes at all and permit them to use and sell more and more foreign products.
Bad news. Politicians of either party have no real solutions to this economic dilemma except perhaps buying citizen votes with a guaranteed annual income and more socialist welfare spending thus making it attractive to live on a government dole and assuring government bankruptcy in the long run.
Join me in my crusade to resurrect the “made in the USA” small independent business man or woman by disseminating these ideas to as many humans as you can, especially if they are in powerful positions and can be movers and shakers in this crusade. Ultimately it is the profit motive which motivates change and if you can make a profit and pay no taxes at all then you will have an advantage over those who are paying taxes and promoting foreign goods.
Money changes the world and I have presented you with a revolutionary capitalist idea which could work in the real world if implemented. This nationalist idea, if implemented, can save the USA economically in the long run. So, do you want to be a modern conservative national capitalist? Spread the faith and believe that the recommended changes will be made in the near future. Make “made in the USA” a proud symbol again before it is too late!
Title: Danger: A general overview of a future globalist socialism

With the gradual collapsing of common morality or ethics in society the leadership, dominant in the legacy media, is beginning to proclaim that they are the moral leadership which will cure all social and economic ills with their socialist globalist ideology. The days of the individual with integrity, financial and family responsibility, and a love of country are biting the dust. Most of the leadership wants to forcefully redistribute the wealth of hard working middle class Americans to those who have earned almost nothing so that most can spend it by consuming the products of international corporations making these corporations even richer than before. The wealth and wage inequality grows and the rich benefit the most causing most of the population to subsist on meager wages.
This is what is actually going on and socialist ideology is what is making this gradual transformation of the American deficit economy into eventual third world status possible. “Free” money for paying off student loans, money for inefficient green energy projects, standardized medical care for everyone, a guaranteed national income, and generous support for illegal aliens is just the beginning of a never ending cycle of throwing money at a problem now and making it worse in the long run. The problem with socialism is that you soon run out of money for pet socialist projects, ruin the economy, and then have to restore order with draconian tyrannical approaches to governing a decimated nation.
Much American farmland is being purchased by foreign nations, American businesses are being bought up by other nations, and most insidious of all traditional American values of independence, responsibility, and hard work are being usurped by an egalitarian entitlement socialist ideology. This ideology preaches collective equality and decimates the idea of advancement based on individual merit and replaces it with advancement based on political affiliation and ideological belief. This is especially true in academia, the future source of American leadership. Yes, and future leaders may mostly be Democrats.
Trump was merely a temporary aberration for the globalists who will be laughing all the way to the bank with a Biden win. It is not just China who will be owning a lot of America but the globalists will own whatever is left over. Sad but true, America will probably not be great again because the globalists don’t want America to have nationalist protectionist tendencies.
Almost all knowledgeable conservatives are retreating into alt tech internet companies like Parler because they all know that big tech is censoring their conservative ideas and websites with bottom of the list search results. We now don’t have a fear of the monarchy which our founding fathers had but now have to fear the growing power of a tech monarchy. This tech monarchy is starting to censor moral free speech and is making it harder for intelligent conversations to exist in a realm of politically correct vocalizations which try to blacklist dissenting viewpoints, especially conservative ones.
Importing moral and technical talent from abroad is no longer that easy in an era of increasing civil unrest and economic decline. Talented individuals want to emigrate to a land of plenty and a land of opportunity and these national benefits are becoming scarcer with each passing year.
My largest concern is for the moral, ethical, or spiritual state of the common young American who is being brainwashed in our educational system to almost a moron status without a realistic knowledge of American history, the constitution, budgeting, and how to have a happy heterosexual family with responsible finances and good paying jobs.
What I actually believe and predict is that America will eventually be ruled by a technocratic elite and it probably won’t matter that much if the masses are poorly educated and brainwashed in a dysfunctional egalitarian socialist ideology and leading lives of dysfunctional desperate financial enslavement. Today the future does not seem very bright for the continued dominance of the USA both politically and economically in the world which is showing its new found economic muscle and ideological proclivity towards socialism.
Forceful redistribution of wealth is not the answer to future prosperity because producing things which the world needs and wants is the one and only true answer to our economic ills. The tragedy is that someone else in the world is producing things cheaper and they are things which we need and want and can no longer compete to produce ourselves. We are addicted to consuming the products of the world and we are producing little of what the world needs or wants.
America is rich in natural resources and long overdue are tax incentives to make manufacturing US goods competitive with the rest of the world. Utilizing robotics in manufacturing may be a partial answer. Educating more in STEM fields is a necessary long term solution.
Title: Capsocialism: A just national economic system

International global capitalism has accelerated the wealth gap between the haves and the haves very little in almost every country at the expense of wilderness and wildlife and have established a wealthy ruling class in almost every country of the world. Once in power the way to maintain that power is to have a socialist ideology to assure that those in power will maintain rule over the mass of humans working for meager wages and drastically reduce the ability of the individual to compete with monopolistic dominance in the marketplace. Call it an aristocracy of the wealthy ruling over a new form of slave labor where you have the freedom to change jobs but only if you find another job working for another large corporation at similar low wages.
It is true that if you are unemployed and also destitute then you need a safety net of government assistance to survive in this world so you really need a form of socialism for the unemployed and also destitute. That said the government assistance should not be so great that it takes away your incentive to go back to work once you are on government welfare. Make government welfare too attractive to live on and the nation will eventually go bankrupt financially with no hope of recovery.
How do you put the incentive to live financially responsibly back into socialism which so desperately needs it?
Create two classes of citizens. One class the destitute and unemployed who are totally dependent on the government and the other a working class which is totally responsible for its own medical care, unemployment costs, and child support. If you bankrupt yourself with medical costs, unemployment costs, or child costs then you become a member of the destitute and unemployed class totally dependent on the government with a low standard of living and little free choice.
If you are totally dependent on the government then your voting rights will be less or a fraction of the voting rights of working citizens. You will lose your right to a motorized vehicle and be dependent on government door to door delivery of basic standardized needs such as food, drink, clothing, sanitary needs, cell phone, and computer and you will live mostly in high rise apartment dwellings with or without offspring.
If you are single then you will be sharing that apartment with other welfare recipients sleeping in bunk beds more than one to a room. In effect it should be a prison like system without locks so you have the incentive to go on the internet and get reeducated in a useful job which will result in mobility freedom and the luxury of purchasing what you want and when you want it. Yes, there will once again be an incentive to get back into the work force and enjoy basic luxuries such as food and drink which you like and a dwelling in a location of your personal choice.
Yes, incentive can be put back into a socialist system but you will need two classes of citizens with different political voting power so that those on welfare do not enslave the working class of citizens. What is this new updated form of socialism called? It can be called Capsocialism or a mixture of responsible capitalism with the social need for a safety net for the destitute and also unemployed.
EVERY HUMAN IS NOT EQUAL ALL THE TIME and if you are destitute and unemployed then you are not equal to the working citizens of a nation. One person one vote because everyone is equal all the time? No they are not! If everyone has equal voting power throughout their lifetime then communism is the long duration unjust result. Yes, as soon as you are employed you get back your full voting rights. The concept of human equality in its present form is outdated and needs radical revision.
Financially independent responsible healthy citizens and families are the necessary backbone of a just society and that means that you should be rewarded for being healthy, having a job, and responsibly taking care of your offspring. If you aren’t healthy, don’t have a job, and can’t take care of your offspring financially then you should be punished with a lower standard of living than the employed financially responsible humans.
This kind of a just society promotes the reproduction of healthy, educated, good parents who feel a caring responsibility for their offspring. Once again responsible citizens will be justly rewarded and financially irresponsible uneducated citizens without a job will be punished justly for their irresponsibility. There will be an incentive to remain healthy, to be educated with a job, and to have offspring only if you can afford them financially.
