An Alternative Social-Economic Paradigm Far In Democracy: The Order of Melchizedek

By Robert Shepherd

If we are to be part of a democracy, then let us be united. And if we are to be a member of the United States democracy, let us be united and unite others. God will guide. We are a World People, seeking to know ourselves, together. All religions, with others, not of religion--united: do it and be it. It will take work and effort in social economic and political adjustment, for God's paradigm. God's Spirit at work.

About the Author

A Democratic Economics

To continue democracy⋮ every person, of working age, a citizen—or foreign person employed, for some length of time: with purpose to continue true democracy—are to have their equal right, to their equal share of the workforce; within their ability; sharing the hours with others of their ability: that all is needed by their total work; for product or service rendered; to sustain and grow the total of the territory, to include a measure for exports. Education humming on sidelines. The territory, the United States, setting example, to other territories; extending with example… Computers in all counties set…for three classes of work, with subsets…unemployed to positions…employed finding equilibrium…all abled employed…it is not a forty-hour work week.

To You

If you will yield to my style of grammar you will develop a kind of spatial field; increasing perspective development; evolving right hemisphere's function⫶ developing in context, which i hope will slow you for the silent perception of abstract patterns development; a right hemisphere; function not just promoting a left hemisphere fill, to then repeat. Comprehending, is not just a linear field—in the left hemisphere—but the involvement with perception of abstract patterns, and more; using new words in contexts, with grammar, developing perspectives in a new spatial field of operation: using both hemispheres.

The perspective, herein, will unfold; as words are used in new contexts, for you. i like long complicated sentence structure to promote and maintain a larger spatial field of operation for greater perspective development, even run-on sentences.

The triple colon, ⫶, is a mathematical symbol which can be used with purpose, assisting longer sentences.

Often, there will be four ellipsis, each ellipsis separated by a distance of two spaces, about a quarter of an inch … for you to stop and consider/figure within the contexts.

Often, there are seven hyphens, ------- at the end of a paragraph for many different reasons for you to figure/consider. It is a paragraph trailer.

In all instances single quotations italics; with no double quotations; signifying of a word or a grouping of words are to signify the perfect or ideal state of as in example: being, somatic activity, are, and the like.

When leaving out words or sentences in an expression; and as in quotations; there is used three ellipsis, …, as usual for omissions. A space between the two paragraphs is a kind of pause, part of grammar.

Before the 1970s, the right hemisphere was considered the silent hemisphere. Yet in the '70's, there was identified many functions of this hemisphere: Holistic, spatial/musical, simultaneous, artistic-symbolic, emotional, intuitive-creative, minor (quiet), receptive, spiritual, synthetic-gestalt, facial recognition, perception of abstract patterns, recognition of complex figures, simultaneous comprehension.-------We need grammatical forms to facilitate these functions. There has been progress in the last fifty years.

In studying, to understand a written work, it is good to have discussion.

i would suggest reading Introduction remarks to Between the Fat and the Blood. Then stop and read another day, taking a day or so, between each article; taking time for thinking (figuring), a little life to go by.

You have heard of that old adage: If one writes something that's significant, yet complex; well, no one will understand it. The complexity is more than another wants to deal with. Yet, if one writes something that is easy to understand, everyone likes it, though the writing doesn't really say anything new.

The enclosed manuscript is a bit lengthy. But, to attempt social economic paradigm shift, well, a lot of significant and complex stuff needs to be presented, in a way to get others to stop and think, re-read and study…maybe paragraph at a time; in some places, i don't think the manuscript is a quick read. One doesn't quick read an algebra book: there is this stopping to figure.

What is signified by paradigm itself is complicated. Buckminster Fuller gave the best example i've heard. He compared Roman numerals with Arabic numerals, focusing on the types of generalizations and formulations that can be made with each. Roman numerals: well, one can count and count and count…and there are some geometric formulations that can be made. But with Arabic numerals: yes, one can count and count, but boom! One can add, subtract, multiply, and divide, involving to fractions and decimals, etcetera. There is a wide range of generalizations and formulations that can be made with Arabic numerals, as applications boom into reality…Yet, as with my work, it is not numbers but the many words and concepts relating to a great relativism in our species. So, the complexity with significations are numerous and difficult, as emotions and bias involve in many people, as I speak to such a wide range of people.

In my studies of analytic philosophy, one of the most pronounced points—I concluded—is when there is change in expression, in a subject matter; using different words and grammar; this difference brings about a quest, in the serious reader. So, as i've written, I focus to write it as close as I can, as to how it first came to me, than focus to a particular wording as usual and particular style in accepted grammar. Well, a new idea doesn't come to one in a grammatical style, with well-laid-out concepts with wordings. It is like a type of gathering of kinds of sensations, as in thinking: generalizing-formulating to a whole perspective. It is like a questing-seeking, looking for continuity…yearning. And this is what I hope to bring about in the reader. If one quests-seeks, they may yearn from all their being. They can throw themselves open, to understand another way; as we all face difficult times… And as we comprehend what is going on/in/of all our peoples of earth, there is an attempt to put it all together, in a different way, that we can get together peacefully on our planet. Many religions (ways of life) seek this, as many in the studies of the humanities (as some think, there is no God). Yet, with all peoples, with each group, there is a type of economy. And in the United States, there is an economy that places our democracy—its people—and all peoples, and all life, in jeopardy. So, we all need to get serious for the type of perspective that brings change and unity for a new type of economy, on this earth. i truly think and feel," believe, our religions can come together as one people, as those without religion can believe in/for the people, with their study for the humanities.

When we have to stop and think, as we read—not speed-read—this is where there is time and activity; comprehending anew, as for social economic paradigm shift: prompting thought, enhancing understanding, whatever the subject matter.

And so, here we are speaking of change and unity, to win for democracy. Yet, we need a new field of operation. And there is a new field of operation from knowing this manuscript. And we, having full comprehension, will then turn the base of economics around, for true democracy in the homeland; extending what is signified by freedom, liberty, and justice, with our inalienable rights, as we all gain toward these ideals for our each's pursuit of happiness, yet extending to all democracies and other political ideologies, in all other countries… Even a religious factor weights in… So, if we are to do it (change and unity) by various taxations, with exemptions and deductions and tax credits, etcetera, and a coupon or purchase card for each store, with this favor here and that favor there, democracy will lose. We will just continue the present old paradigm of economics of issues of old and create new issues in the paradigm of old; as production produces in vain, manipulating consumption… When the producer creates desire, creating demand, then true desire gets lost; and demand is in the hands of the producer, while the people yet lost in consumption. The manuscript will clarify.

But to ensue to a new field of operation, where everyone—every working age citizen and any foreign person, having had a job for X amount of time—has work by their ability; each sharing the hours of work with others in their ability (each having a new perspective in/of democracy); that all is produced—or services rendered—for all the people of the United States, extending with exports, and involving with imports, then we can shape production for long-lasting, durable products; no built-in obsolescence of any kind, saving energy in the long run, with all employed, with voting rights in command… The manuscript developing terminology and concepts all along the way. All employed; except the disabled and retired; within their expertise. Education booming, as a service of expertise. All industry stays the same—in its normal ebb and flow—as the shift takes place for the unemployed, to have work within their ability. Wages moving to a different scale, in time. All employed considering (with perspective) for equilibrium in the workforce, developing, in sometime: working and sharing together, an informed people; to sustain democracy, with perspective. The manuscript will unfold.

We need a new approach to taxation and how to organize our workforce; for quality products and services, that it be within democracy. This manuscript presents the scaffolding for a new field of operation; in reality; a new social economic paradigm of activity: A democratic economics. Yet, a full and transparent perspective, for all the people seeking an active—in our lives—an extension of democracy; and comprehending this paradigm of economics, extending for all complying countries, to organize for themselves, as we set example.

The people, in the United States, need to get involved—with perspective—being part of the living reality of unity and change, with our activity: to solve our economic and social problems. There are many facets of the perspective. First, we comprehend the problem, getting perspective, then resolve it with action. The manuscript will unfold.

I started this manuscript as a journal, thinking to speak to the everyday person as we live our lives. I didn't start off by saying, There can be an ethos for all of our species. And now I'm in the same place⋮ it is time for the everyday person, of the United States, to transcend with the type of terminology and concepts that will appeal within democracy, that we all are in unison about true democracy; that we grow democracy with its basic fundamentals—freedom, liberty, and justice—with inalienable rights, for a pursuit of happiness, that is achievable by each person's work—within their ability—having clear perspective. There is too much technicality, focusing for money flow, surrounding issues; fogging for clear perspective, in the people.

If democracy keeps trying to please the many different groups, for the product money with its interest rates; focusing money flow in Time is Money; leaving the interest for people, our ideals and principle rights: we are losing our democracy, our fundamentals of democracy, in reality. And the people are forced to live in contradiction, forced to think we live in a democracy, when that is not the case. It is a money monopoly, taking over democracy. The manuscript will unfold.

Our democracy is getting lost in a paradigm of economics, which is out of bounds with/for true democracy. We need a straightforward perspective for all to comprehend, from custodial to doctor. And so, a new social economic paradigm will emerge… All facets of a new social economic paradigm cannot be comprehended at a glance. But, a study of each and many facets, then having understood each; comprehend how each facet fits for the whole of the new paradigm. We live in an age of need, for new priorities.

In this read-study, and I say, read-study, for the manuscript is not a speed-read…new ideas will flourish as we use what the word paradigm signifies, and learn and understand the many facets that reveals the signification. Paradigm, a new comprehension—involving new formulations and generalizations—extending into social economic paradigm shift: with a new understanding of our nature; unfolding this paradigm of activity, growing our inalienable rights, within democracy. In the preface and introduction paper, Between the Fat and the Blood, and the first three numbered papers, I was aloof, searching-questing…yearning. I have never read a book on economics. So aloof, I wanted to see what I could come up with. Yet, trying to get handle on economics with a new view; watching television, developing terminology and concepts; than adhering to present terminology and concepts already in practice, ongoing today.

So I'm expecting the reader to be aloof in these first writings, through the first three numbered papers; searching-questing-yearning—feeling a need for continuity—as we develop with terminology and concepts; the reader tracing along with me for a new position viewing economics.

Subsequently, as I found out, I'd developed for a democratic economics, controlled by We the People, being an Informed People (educated); than manipulated by an arbitrary class. Here is the place for unity and change. The focal points are in all abilities (in all classes of work, and to involve all foreign working people), all people working in the workforce, involving a flow of labor; as the manuscript will signify; than the flow of money, with its interest rate, equating time is money, an inflationary process. However, to understand the manuscript fully, one must read-study, consecutively, each section at a time, developing, building context. I start putting it together in #4; that in #5, transcend in expression; that in #s 6–10, using terminology, extending context. In #11, I hammer in for religious quests, then summarize in #12.

There is a conceptual scaffolding herein that can start to be applied into reality.

Paradigm Shift: we need this type of expansion to grow democracy—social economic paradigm shift—that democracy can have its full application in the world. Using computers—with its functions of sets, with subsets—we can order a new workforce where all abled can have a job, sharing the hours with others of their ability; that all products and services can be fulfilled for all of our people, with exports and imports: growing democracy, specifically extending our inalienable rights.

Many, or most, of our problems—within the homeland, and for other homelands—revolve around the unemployed. In this manuscript, a view is presented, patching facets together, to put an end to qualified people not having employment. But, for this comprehension to be realized, it is that many facets are to be understood. So tolerance is needed until all facets are studied, that the whole can be comprehended. Think in terms of: every qualified teacher has work. Then, how many teachers can there be for every classroom of how many students. This is to be decided by an equilibrium of distribution of teachers, involving a workforce distribution set up within a computer system. Think in terms of any qualified person having work within their ability, involving a workforce equilibrium. Think how to arrange a workforce equilibrium that all abled would have employment… Here, we are looking into building a responsible people, active in their community.

Medicine: the AMA and DMA; yes, need the place and tools to do research. But also, to see through to the activity of distribution, that all the people have access to the frontiers—treatments and cures—of medicine. This bedside manner! We will develop a new scale for wages.

In a democracy, medicine is for all the people. Democracy is the heart of our republic, and the heartbeat of our democracy is the activity of the people: an educated, Informed People, developed people; than vainly manipulated.

Hopefully, this manuscript will aid in the type of change needed to advance the unity for our democracy; growing to other countries, to grow a world people; and to protect our growing planet.

When I signify We the People, I signify those of all political bias, all religious belief, all gender: Homo sapiens. When I signify a world people, I signify all political bias, all religious belief, all gender: Homo sapiens.

Carefully,

R.O. Shepherd

Ethnoethos

A new word; the prefix ethno- combined with the word ethos is ethnoethos. Ethnoethos is the distinguishing characteristics of moral nature or guiding beliefs of a people, all of Homo sapiens. It is all people united, combined as one people, yet extending.

The prefix ethno-: all race, all people combined; a species, Homo sapiens. The word ethos: the distinguishing characteristics of the group of people; a species, Homo sapiens…ethnoethos: all crucial periods of all body systems being developed, to their actuality; no hidden aspects (by metaphor) of/for somatic body (somatic body, all activity outside the conscious act[s]) effecting-affecting conscious, yet having its activity during development—with conscious development—finding its capacities during its development; its actuality, to a creative intelligence in itself.¹ No metaphor hiding somatic activity; to involve any distortion, for consciousness development; yet, an extending people. Our goal is "…‘full self', ‘actualimation²', ‘glorification,'…" ‘Our full use'—‘The Paradigm of Our Use'—etcetera: the metaphor (symbol) is resolved to the activity of ‘Being-on-Being,' extending-expanding-equalizing in equilibrium.

Introduction Statement

Many are saying that democracy in the United States and Europe is in decline. No! It is that the present paradigm of economics is not adequate for true democracy.

Our three branches of government, in the United States, are swaggered by a faulty paradigm of economics—held hostage—to continue true democracy. We need better perspective. And, the only answer is social economic paradigm shift.

Democracy in the United States—and our whole earth—is in jeopardy. And the problem is interwoven into our every life, as a particular economic paradigm is conceived necessary for us to continue. To understand the problem is to develop context as to what the problem is, that we can correct it.

I start the following manuscript to build context, not for a conceptualizing of the present shuffle of entities in the present paradigm of social economics, but to present another paradigm of possible activity. We need better terminology, a terminology for the understanding by the people of democracy. When the problem can be seen, then we can formulate the direction for a solution, that democracy can continue as a true democracy.

When we involve with paradigm shift, then some slow study needs presence: than push to meet a deadline without thorough consideration of another possible paradigm of social economic plasticity. We need to study an alternative—in the making—to the present social economics.

Democracy needs better perspective; to continue freedom, liberty, and justice: with a new view to what our inalienable rights are, establishing a new type of pursuit of happiness…extending true democracy. We need a kind of perspective that involves all prejudices; yet a perspective that would appeal to a large number of our species, all of us, but continuing true democracy.

It is a perspective that would appeal to every consciousness of/in the founding principles of our democracy: to conceive the necessity for a new economic foundation; the beginning of a new social economic paradigm; as we are now confronted with world calamity, showing the need for social economic paradigm shift.

Democracy in the world is in financial difficulty. Our democracy has been and is being swaggered by a faulty paradigm of economics, than to continue true democracy. It is our economic paradigm that is faulty, bruising our people⋮ as, at present, too much effort is used to continue this paradigm; defying democracy, manipulating, than educating; involving health care, education, labor, production, and the list goes on and on to continue a production schematic. We need better understanding as to what the capacities of a democratic people are.

We need perspective for social economic paradigm shift. We have the communications to do it. It is a large project needed to continue true democracy. And, I feel, it can only get started in the United States, as we lead in true democracy. Let us not be blindsided by our conflict of interests, yet face we have a production and consumption problem.

It is now for democracy, or we will lose to a money monopoly, which is ongoing now, to a type of money totalitarianism. Humanity will lose.

Do not let all three branches of our government continue this plunder, sandwiching middle personnel into professions and industry—to create revenue for taxation—sustaining a paradigm of economics, devastating true democracy.

Please consider another social economic paradigm of plasticity, forming.

The following manuscript is not like any other.

It starts, building context, signifying to the everyday person in everyday reality. It starts, viewing our everyday problems in everyday life, to then transcend in perspective. Before we can resolve a problem, we need to be clear as to what the problem is. The manuscript is a journal.

This manuscript may be reproduced, or transmitted, as a complete statement; for free distribution: that its contexts can be comprehended, as a continuum from the many points of viewing.

Carefully,

*Social Economic Chemistry: Between the Fat and the Blood

Preface

November 9–10, 2008

An economic paradigm falters.

To improve the economy is a popular concern for the United States…and the world. But, we are confronted with dilemma. If we bolster the present economy to keep producing to sell to people, waffling them (us) around in their (our) ill-identities, continuing production with disregard to what our true needs are, we are wasting our resources and are actually burning up the planet. If we slow production, then we could confront massive unemployment; this is thought.

The present paradigm of social economic activity is in dilemma. If we keep production, as we have been doing—feeding the ill-identities of people, the numerously differently ill-identified people—we exploit the planet. If we don't slow production, we exploit our planet and its inhabitants. But if we slow production, we could bring about massive unemployment. While yet, if we slow production, we can reduce the effect of production that harms the planet. It is the type of production—thus, changes in employment—that needs focus!

We must consider another paradigm of social economics; a necessity to stop the waste of people—fed in their ill-identities—and wasting our resources, polluting our planet.

Well, it is the case that the economy is to the front of everyone's mind these days, as this is reflected in my correspondence. So, I venture to a type of social economic activity—to first be conceived—that would be compatible with my earlier writings. In the end, conceiving first a new paradigm of social economic activity, we shall adjust to a non-monetary social economic way of living and bring to demise fascist capitalism.

October 30, 2008

Maybe these introductory remarks (above) and the following paper are clear (to a point) as to what I am comprehending now. Obama and T. Pickens seem on the right track. Just in the last month, Obama talked solar-wind-tide and of a new workforce for a new energy system, that I know of; I don't keep up with all of what people say.

I think the stock market is a joke, and worse than a joke. It is simply like all these people are in a glass house, as they view the activities of the real world through the glass—in all directions—that are taking place in reality. They have these chips—like blue chips—as they bet with each other, as to what is to happen in the real world through the glass. And they get people in the real world to buy chips as they do. What they do has nothing to do with the real world, except extend a production schematic as people of the real world use their real world profits to buy chips. Yes, if the chips are not worth anything anymore, then those of/in the real world will lose where they have bought chips; but, what is necessary, in their lives and of their business, will keep going. If the stock market falls, it is all those middle people, in the glass house, that are out; and all those that have bought in. It is all a game of chips, about what is going on in the real world, affecting only the emotions of people in their fear and greed. The real world keeps going on with those in the real world who were playing the chip-game and all the rest of us. It is a betting-game. We are to put our monies into the real world, not the stock markets and financial institutions! Stop the betting game and all these middle people—in the glass house—will have to get real; they are taking everybody! They do not do anything except keep their betting game going, but the false economy (a business: stocks, bonds, notes, etcetera [financial institutions] in the glass house) they have created employs thousands to millions of people. The false economy has to stop! It will self-destruct, as knowledge in democracy increases! We have to scale back! We have to change the economy where We the People are living! People are wild in their ill-identities (given to graven image). We are burning up our planet with this false economy!

October 27, 2008

The social economic situation in the United States, and the world as a whole, is precarious at best. The real problem is too many middle people. And to give these people more money, and increase their number, is a grave error. Giving these people money, increasing positions, is the wrong place of emphasis.

We have to face reality, as a people, and not be manipulated by middle people who have psychologists, sociologists, and economists at their employ. These psychologists, sociologists, and economists are middle people also, paid by these middle people (merchants, capitalists), and—not knowing—guide the human situation in the wrong direction.

The mind-set of the politicians and middle people are an entanglement in litigation that deals with crisis: legislation, and setting of rules, for a short-term fix.

The twofold problem is (1) the economy is bust by the present rules and (2) setting production for the wrong types of things for people to buy. The mind-set to sell people things by getting them to want, what they do not need, is out of control. It is a false economy… manufactures of food, put in stuff that is less than food; from dyes (to deceive), to taste enhancers (to deceive), to chemicals to affect texture, to preservatives that are not needed, to etcetera; supporting an economy for the production of these additives. And this is not okay, feeding people stuff that is not food; or, as too much salt (people should salt their food for their level of activity). There is a mass of employment and energy involved in this production of additives, which the effects, over the long term, are known to be bad for us in many instances and not known in other instances. The rule should be, If it is not food, they cannot put it in our food. The middle people think of profit and creating jobs, while neglecting our health and the safety of the planet. They don't watch out for our health close enough! On the other hand, there is an attempt to have everybody on insurance—auto, life, medical, any property—as these middle people think best; yet, creating an insecure people unless one belongs to their system of things, for protection, claiming the insurance is for our safety and health! There is a better way! Watch TV, look at all the diseases we can have; but yet, a pill for just what ails us: every month taking off the market some medicine with dangerous side effects, medicine not tested rightly. The merchant (business people, capitalist, influences medicine) can do us one way, feeding us stuff that is not food; and medicine that is not tested rightly; and then, claim to care about our health, protecting us—creating a dependency on them—as they make profit, getting us to buy insurance. It is no one's fault! There is no one to blame! It is a malignant growth on the side of democracy, capitalism out of control: fascist capitalism.

The type of things i'm showing here is widespread in almost all aspects of our economy. Again, we have to face reality, as a people, and not be manipulated by middle people who have psychologists, economists, sociologists at their employ. These sociologists-economists-psychologists are middle people also, paid by these middle people (capitalists: merchants) and—not knowing—guide the human situation in the wrong direction.

To bail out this system of deceit is wrong! This shows an interlock, in our thinking, with this old economic system of things. It is the middle people that are the problem: too much stuff produced and consumed—not needed—continuing an insecure and dependent people on their system of things. To give more money to these people is a grave error; they will just continue with rules of legislation and other rules, not comprehending the solution. They are boxed in and cannot comprehend outside their trained—over generations—mind-set. Another economic system needs to be shown. Democracy is in the balance. Listen, in the year 2000, the ballot box was stolen, votes were not counted. This is how bad it is for democracy!

The solution is, in part, for our government to protect the people: put a freeze on laying off of personnel in industry. If an industry is down 20% in sales, don't lay off anybody, but cut hours for this industry by 20%. Then these people will buy with caution. Instead of buying a box of instant mashed potatoes (say, for $2.99) for ten servings, they will buy a five-pound bag of potatoes for $2.99 for (say) twenty servings, cutting out a percentage of another industry. Yes, the instant mashed potato people (and secondary people [making boxes with inner plastic bags]) their sales will go down (say) 10%, but no layoffs, only a reduction of their work hours, that then they buy with caution. This activity spreading through the economy, involving all sorts of products, will put people in a cautious mode of consumption: people being aware and thinking of what to buy than being guided by the psychologists-sociologists-economists at the employ of the merchant. This activity of not laying off people and bringing about cautious buying—causing an adjustment in the workforce—I call social economic plasticity change. We must scale back this present economy which is a run-a-way of merchant's influence on our politicians, and all of us, affecting all aspects of our world society. We must eliminate waste of energy, as people can be educated, not manipulated, to find our true needs: cutting out middle people who can shift to another aspect of the workforce. An economy a bust—wasting energy, wasting people—is to scale back! But, it will take a view into another social economic paradigm, then actions of the people, to do it. The manuscript will unfold.

Yes, the consumption patterns of people is a big problem by itself: people being manipulated by the measure of the psychologist-sociologist-economist, doing their best to keep the economy growing with more jobs and better pay for all. This is true, for some countries, while other people starve as their natural resources are exploited. Yet, the problem is, in large part, in our affluent people; there is confusion and distortion as to what our true needs are, with the compound that we are wasting ourselves and our planet by excessive and wrong types of production.

Here, the oil and gas industries are to merge for the affect to produce passive energy: solar, wind, tide. Not the government to legislate: the oil and gas people to merge in their efforts for a new energy system. And, the engine producing people to merge for an electric vehicle (natural gas engines for farm work, construction work, etcetera; for transport on present interstate highway, modified): together, an electric engine; Chevron-solar, Exxon-wind, Phillip 66-tide, etcetera…with our manufacturing industry of oil and gas—with vehicle industry—we can convert us to a safe economy and planet. Thus a big employment shift as we scale back in a social economic plasticity. This is the best investment for oil-gas-auto! In the long run this shift is to be made, but we are to act now for energy!

In example, there may be many better plans: cover all interstate highways to thus reduce weather-related accidents, snow removal and chemicals for traction, blistering sun. Then put solar panels over the covering, and at every vertical truss extend a windmill. Where the highways touch the oceans, generate electricity from the tide to the conduit.

Construct highways to both sides of the old—but modified highways for freight and heavy machinery—for an electric vehicle. Plenty of jobs here, for every state…where there is passive energy, we can generate electricity, as the engine producer produce in mass—making affordable to all—an electric car. To spread to all countries.

As a world people, we need to merge our efforts in industry and change our production of things; surging an economic-social plasticity; creating different jobs to maintain a new energy system, scaling back an old economy that is wasting our people and our planet: establishing a new economic system.

It is not competition anymore; it's working together for our common goals, as we stand united of the people earth: scaling back an old and wasteful economy, finding our true identities in a common effort of a free people, spreading the world. The manuscript will unfold.

If the United States is to be a true leader, we need to show the rest of the world what we can do with a massive overhaul of our way of living. We need to be at war against our own forms of production and consumption: forming a new society to spread the world. What good is an economy if we are continuing to waste ourselves and our planet?

Merging our industries together for our true needs, than deceiving people to want what they do not need, with an effort of all peoples working in a new social economic plasticity, is the way into the way of life for all peoples of our planet.

Listen up: (1) how many people are on this planet?; (2) produce the amount of food to feed all, warm seasons producing for cooler seasons and hydroponics; (3) affect a transportation system to transport goods; (4) what types of solar-wind-tide units, where, for how many, and produce it; (5) what type of refrigeration is needed, etcetera…and produce and transport; (6) cloths; (7) education, medicine, and produce for it: temporality. All the above, by a world people, working in a social economic plasticity, to accomplish for our true identities.

For what our true identities are: study istmas, for a logical consistent statement; Portent: Existential Astronomy, for the deity who is guiding us; Little Open Papers, for the deity's work to prepare us that we evolve to our perfection, to accomplish in the universe.

At the time of printing, 2020, Little Open Papers and Portent are not typed and edited.

Between the Fat and the Blood

December 2008

The following paper is based within the understanding of istmas and other writings, mentioned above, that are circulated.

To understand what our true needs are and how we are to achieve this way of life, based in our true needs, takes some study. Yet, this understanding can be accomplished by the study of these writings, in this manuscript.

While, perhaps, there can be a very simple understanding of this way of life. In the evolution of life, on this planet, it was so accomplished by the function of two key principles of activity: (1) being veridical (non-illusory), illusory activity is not sustaining; (2) being trophic (to move toward that needed), to acquire what is needed, a primary need evolution. Here signified is veridicity and trophidity: the activities signified are synonymous in activity, inseparable; if veridicity, then trophidity, and vice versa.

In/of our organism, veridicity is expressed by the crucial periods of our various body systems—and that more miniscule within body systems—having their activity during development of the individual, which would include a collective people. The totality of this development of veridicity of all body systems, individually and collectively, results in a harmonized succinctity of function, activity; which includes whatever signing properties (spirit, aura, ESP: that is, another utility of activity to gain its fruition. This be a type of signification and a type of perception: perception-signification. Many religions profess of this activity of communication… In the Hebraic tradition—say, from Adam and Eve to now—the deity has used this perception-signification [spirit] directing our organism, that this spirit will be poured out, in full, by the deity, at some future time).

Listen, the stock-bond-notes-etcetera (financial institutions) reflects what is going on in the real world, where people produce and consume products. These institutions shuffle paper that relates to the activities taking place in the real world, and use all means they can to affect the real world for their conceived profit. If we spend our time to figure all these shuffles (entities), placing assets here and there for a specific effect, then we become part of a complex conceptual shuffle that lends to an ill end of an old economic paradigm, and reside with the types of problems of the merchant with their old paradigm of economics. We become fathomed at how the money system works: how it creates jobs, brings about revenues for taxation, and revenues to do good works. But, in this conceptual framework, there is a shuffling of people to make products, to buy products, to make the schema work; and the idea as to why we produce and consume gets lost. There is a better way! Let us focus an abstract of the manuscript⫶ We must differentiate what is produced, that what is produced is for our true development and growth: in democracy. That is, to accomplish that there be no infringement to the developing body; a subjectivity; producing frustration: thus each stage (crucial periods) of development is fulfilled; that there be no confusion; by the cushion of previous stages (crucial periods) of development, actualized. Most rules (laws) by mankind directing developmental behavior are due to frustration—at crucial periods of development—laws needed, based on the confused body of the provider, continuing laws, for consciousness to sustain. This compounds and continues frustration, continuing metaphors, substituting for that not developing. Sublimation than actualimation.

The numerously ill-identified peoples in cultural relativity, here is where faith-trust gets lost without spirit. And as long as there be a people of laws for developmental behavior—not providing for crucial periods their development—we will need a system of laws for adults, not having been provided rightly during their development.—An order of development is needed for those developing, forthcoming—but when we accomplish, in consciousness, to provide for our crucial periods (all stages) of development, the law is transcended for a specific order that is within us, a specific order that is a species as we involve directly with spirit, Being on Being.-----The manuscript will unfold for the Order of Melchizedek.

Democracy provides us a system of laws until we accomplish into the political system involving spirit in everyday life: life conventionalized with spirit!

From democracy, we shall focus to provide for our inalienable rights; that which is inseparable from our bodies, expanding unto, to be our inalienable rights. And there will be products produced by a production schematic that will need distribution. A new economy.

Faith-trust is provided when one is provided their full self. This providing is by a collective people, our species. It is the flock of Jesus that is to bring an end to the Great Tribulation!

Look at how Ezekiel 12:27–28 speaks to the end of the Great Tribulation, King James Version:

Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off.

28 Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; There shall none of my words be prolonged anymore, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, said the Lord God.

Yet, in Revelation 10:5–7, as John writes to a people (us) then, with their knowledge, language, and understanding; and to us today, with our knowledge, language and understanding:

And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,

6 And swore by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer.

7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

This he shall begin to sound is of the trumpet sounded in Revelation 11:15, ending the Great Tribulation. And this trumpet is the trumpet signified in Thessalonians 4:16 and 1 Corinthians 15:52.

Also, we should note, in Jeremiah 31:33, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts (God speaking). We note inward parts. What tradition of life lives here? What use of our bodies will be in unison? Our hearts, with blood, nourishing all inward parts, endocrinological and neurologically connected—it is an order of development! Think of these places—inward parts —as places of crucial periods of the development of all body systems, having their succinct function together… Each person, to One Body of people, yet each person having a consciousness as to what is happening. Still yet, production and consumption will change.-----The total manuscript to unfold to you…

It is like these markets—financial institutions—are a mirror (of a consciousness) as to what is produced and consumed in the real: products of their institutions and products of the real world. So, there is a problem in the real world, where people produce and consume, which reflects in these markets: the markets of the financial institutions reflect; that is, like a mirror. Say, the ultimate merchants look into their financial mirror,³ don't like what they see; so they change the mirror: shuffle assets around for different ways of backing their assets; while they attempt to shuffle the people in the real world around to buy, now, different products; even to buy products—of creation—within their financial institutions (as products [entities] of investment in stocks-bonds-notes of their financial institutions, investing to back their assets). Well then, many people, in the real world, become interlocked within the financial institutions, as they are directed: buying into these financial institutions, as these financial institutions create and shuffle various entities. But, what if the financial institutions are in paradigm limitation, backing various activities in the institution, with activities in the institution: like a pyramid system where more and more people—with their assets, in the real world—are bought into the system? Yet, there are too many at the top, investing in the financial institutions; to many people living off the financial institutions (not willing to work or able) living in luxury, not fulfilled in themselves nor wanting to work, while not enough people work to produce in the real world. So needed are slaves or immigrants for cheap labor or the system falls. Well, we are confronted with a socioeconomic paradigm shift if we want to sustain democracy, involving freedom for all. And we find our true identities rather than produce for the multiplicity of forms of ill-identities sustaining idolatry…sustaining people in deception. This affecting people in the real world to slow in consumption of products of the financial institutions and the real world, which is reflecting in the financial mirror, fearing a domino effect…the pyramid topples…to many middle people: merchants everywhere; merchants in the real world having products to sell, and ultimate merchants—of financial institutions—maxing out, getting people (in the real world) to invest into their financial institutions: products everywhere, as people are shuffled to consume the products of the real world and products of the financial institutions. These shuffles distort and confuse people as to their true needs, as these people are played upon by the merchants and those to the hire of the merchants: psychologists-sociologists-economists.⁴ We must keep in mind that it is not to destroy a paradigm of activity, than to give direction unto, then into, another social economic paradigm for sustaining democracy; and bringing our religions—and all peoples—into unity. But to create a new social economic paradigm, we must be very clear as to what this old paradigm is doing, bringing destruction to our democracy and religious faiths, and all peoples. We must comprehend the problems to fix the economic system.-------We seek our true identities. We must differentiate what is produced; that which is produced is for our true development and growth in democracy.

So we must spend some time getting clear as to what the problems are, that we can comprehend the need for something anew; then we can construct to reality. First we comprehend the problems, then comprehend the direction needed to achieve a true people on a safe planet. And in doing so, we shall place man's created pyramid system (above), metaphorized as brick and slab, that is top heavy of the few people requiring so much from everyone else to maintain their economic paradigm; while the base of the pyramid is a distorted and confused, distracted people, blindsided in daily activities. The base is scrambled, the pyramid—not of/for true democracy—topples. Yet we want to focus for a holy mountain, where the people at the top are for the unity of all the people; as an activity for a true people for a safe planet. Here the people are not distorted and confused (manipulated), but people of/in clear perspective⁵, with common goals. Democracy shows us the way by its emphasis on freedom, focusing that inseparable to democracy, as we comprehend to give specificity to what our inalienable rights⁶ are; in following papers. We shall grow true democracy, forming a democratic economic paradigm.

So, let us review, by expansion on the October 30, 2008, and October 27, 2008, papers above. Sometimes a very simple understanding of a complex system of activity can show what it is and give us a grip to make correction. If we can come to understand what the problem is, then we can start to work on a solution.

There is this parallel activity going on—in financial institutions—with what is actually happening in the real world, as people, of the real world, assess and bet on a real world entity or an entity of the financial institution. That is, people betting on stocks-bonds-notes-etcetera (financial institutions) reflect a monetary value of the activity in the real world, as people, of the real world, assess and bet on a real world entity in the stock market or on an entity
