[OK, it's that time of the year again for the major entertainment event of winter (and here you thought it was SuperBowl) when President Obama tells us again how the country's ills will be cured by taxing the rich and redistributing to the poor, er, middle class. Tomorrow night's the night, brace yourself with an abundant serving of your favorite adult beverage. And not to worry if you miss it; we are told that the half-life of a State of the Union speech is about five minutes.]

Some TPP facts:
Percentage of the total global economy subject to the agreement = 40%. ::::
Number of corporate “trade advisors” given full access to the official draft = 600 ::::
Number of Congress members, journalists, trade unionists, and others who have had “unfettered” access to the document = 0. (The latter group have been allowed access under the conditions of no cameras, cell phones, audio recorders, no written notes, and no unsupervised viewing.)
Apparently the powers that be do not want the public to know what they are signing on to. Very few of the chapters deal with actual trade issues. The rest lays out the legal grounds under which (like WTO) member nations can be sued by corporations for passing laws that limit “trade” like anti-pollution, product safety standards, or any law that protects or encourages (like subsidies) locally produced merchandise. In other words, under this agreement a member nation can be forced to take sub-standard or unsafe products because to not take them limits fair trade.LikeLike

JoeK 1027am – This twin-modal wage distribution was pointed out to RR readers years ago. As technology advances this phenomenon will become more pronounced as the skilled workers/investors become more productive, the middle workers are displaced, and the transfer payment recipients grow. The only thing to stop that happening will be an autocracy cum tyranny in which everyone save the ruling elites will be paupers a la the former USSR and today’s Cuba.
Markets – be they black, gray, or white – always demand exchanges of value for value since they are an expression of human nature. No government in history has been able to legislate and enforce an alternative schema for the exchange of goods and services, but the collectivists have yet to give up on devising such a brave new world.LikeLike

Here’s one for you Russ
While hitting familiar Republican points criticizing the size of the federal debt, Romney at times sounded like a Democrat, calling for President Barack Obama and other leaders in Washington to act on common liberal priorities such as climate change, poverty and education.
“I’m one of those Republicans who thinks we are getting warmer and that we contribute to that,” he said of climate change, charging that federal leaders have failed to enact global agreements needed to tackle the problem.”

Walt 10:37 — I didn’t blame anybody Walt.. just pointing out the facts. If you want to blame Bush for the country going in the tank, go ahead, or you can blame it on Y2k, or you can blame it on sun spots.. it really doesn’t matter. You righties are very good at blaming and very poor at fixing. Besides, just what did George Bush do to make the world a better place anyway?
I find it hilarious that silver spooner Romney is now the champion of the poor and climate change after his failed run at president where he was on the opposite side of those issues. I wonder how much he paid a political consultant to tell him that if he ever wants to be elected he has to pander to the middle instead of his cronies. Duh! Typical spoiled boarding school rich kid narcissist who will say or do anything to get what they want. If Kerry was a flip-flopper, what do you call Romney.. a liar?
George – 10:40 — So what do you propose as a solution? Yes we know all about the industrial revolution and the great economic engine that capitalism is, but historically, free market capitalism has always only succeeded in concentrating wealth rather than distributing wealth, that is if you call slum living an improvement on subsistence farming or a tract home better than the slums while ignoring the lavish lifestyles of the elites and the entire third world. Trickle down has been a failure since the beginning of time that is now cleverly being blamed on “excessive gov’t. interfering with natural processes. If it was going to work, it would have worked by now, gov’t interference or not. Economic and political theory fail to account for the wild card, greed. It all looks good on paper but the greed for wealth and power trumps (no pun intended) all the theories. So what is the solution?LikeLike

You are invited to do that, and then take a specific tenet, proposal, or interpretation of mine to task.
Your socialist position that market driven capitalist economies (your ‘trickle down’ versions) have not benefited humanity over the last two centuries is IMHO incomprehensibly ignorant. It is only capitalism, with its attendant, inevitable inequalities and other warts, that has lifted mankind out its centuries of living lives which were forever poor, short, and brutish. And all that collectivist alternatives have contributed in this interval is hundreds of millions of citizens killed by their own governments.LikeLike

See Joe? No free lunch. There was give and take here. I got nearly 6 grand in ” driveway” , and the boss didn’t take it in the shorts, and the trucking Co. didn’t have two big boat anchors of asphalt to throw away.

I could go on, but this should give you all enough fodder to fill these pages with vitriol for the next few days. Have fun getting flustered and angry that those “solutions” you support have never and will never work and over time have made the future look worse not better (vast accumulations of wealth aside, as the current system does very well at that.)
George: The big point you are is missing is that neither the form of capitalism you so vehemently support nor the socialist experiments of the last century have worked to the benefit the planet and its people as a whole, but rather concentrated wealth and power into a very few hands. Power corrupts whether you are a commie or a CEO and those who seek such power are often psychologically broken people in the first place (Hitler, Stalin, Jamie Dimon, Donald Trump.) It is time to try something else, something different.. perhaps a hybrid of mom and pop capitalism with enough government to prevent the plundering and destruction in the name of constant growth and ever increasing profits that is now prevalent. Otherwise the planet is doomed to return to its feudalistic past where the robber barons run the show and everyone but their minions fight over the scraps.

Alas, the going in different directions is the very reason that Nevada County does not have an economic recovery plan. All the Nevada County tribes want to take a different path to the future. You can not get there for here, unless you know where here is. Unfortunately, every tribal council has a different path to here, and we will never get there until we have unity on a future path to a clearly defined goal. As George notes, we will have the same problem with the recovery after the collapse, only on a larger scale than just our little community of tribes. If we cannot solve the problem locally, how could we do it on a larger scale?

JoeK 944am – Please don’t automatically label disagreement with your ideas as “vitriol” – does your vision for society really enjoy such an exalted place in the Pantheon of Truth?
From your past entries in these comments, it is very clear that you have not taken the time to study the “form of capitalism that (I) so vehemently support”, so until you do so and then take their specific tenets to task, there is no point in giving you an extended reply. But I do note that you and yours continue using the notion that our form of governance should have some group of elitists with the power to “put Americans to work” rebuilding this or doing the other thing that this group mandates as benefitting a more desirable society.
From my conservetarian perch that is a dangerous mindset common to autocrats and totalitarians of all hues dating back to the days when the pharaoh ‘put people to work’ building the pyramids. But that seems to be the received wisdom of today’s progressive Left.LikeLike

Todd,
There are few things in life that a person can give a 100% guarantee but claiming the bible as a book of history is one of those incidents. I 100% guarantee that I(lib) have never as an adult thought of, or claimed, the bible is anything other than a book of stories or fables to help humans try to get through the trial and tribulations of life. The bible is four contradictory stories told from men and two of them who did not live in the time of Jesus. Matthew, one of the men who lived in the time frame of Jesus is the gospel that tells us the teachings of taking care of those in need but oddly enough that seems to be the part of the bible you seem to ignore with your politics. Once again I encourage you and all at RR to read “Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible & Why”. Spoiler alert, in its translations and hand copied bibles(mainly by semi literate slaves) is where the actual meaning of the bible changes. Most were probably by mistake but some for sure were very wealthy individuals making changes in their copies by choice.
Yes, I have read the bible. As a child attended catechism and have very devout Catholic second parents and family, spent parts of almost every summer of childhood with my second family in Yuba City. I also have Protestant relatives that I am very close with and we regularly talk about faith and religion.

Ben Emery, you have my deepest sympathy for your way of life and thought processes. I feel terrible that I am unable to help such a sorry soul.

BenE 1053am – I take it that pounding on the veracity of the bible is an easier task than returning to the point of your main argument and addressing my 753am.

Walt,
The implementation of Trickle Down Economics and Free Trade Agreements are the main sources of the collapse. The problem we have is the leadership of both Democratic and Republican Party’s still believe in both of these ideas. The leadership are the 1% and want to keep it that way without having to pay back into the system that has made them incredibly wealthy.LikeLike

No vitriol Joe…..I asked for an answer and you provided it! It was as I expected …..exactly what I thought I would get…..exactly.
Have fun getting flustered and angry that those “solutions” you support have never and will never work and over time have made the future look worse not better (vast accumulations of wealth aside, as the current system does very well at that.)
Why would I get flustered or angry…..you stand less chance getting of your Peoples Republic than I do of getting my libertarian Disneyland! Of course if you simply can’t bear to part with the fantasy you can still book a direct flight to Maracaibo….important travel tip……bring lots of tampons…..I hear they’re like gold there.LikeLike

Maybe they can get me in on this. Always need a “Villon” And what better than a reformed smoker of the herb?LikeLike

Just what we need here Russ, more out of work welfare cases.
There are NO jobs here, and NO businesses to hire them. So LIBS
want to import “our fair share” of lower class people. I say, don’t Nevada City, Penn Valley.LikeLike
